M ARTHUR HERD
SMASHES RECORD

New York, May 16.-Announce-
ment was made at the headquar-
ters Of the American Jersey Cat
tie club that the herd OF 16 cows
owned by Macarthur & Stauff of
Rickreal, Or, has established a
-ew worlds record for butterfat
production by maintaining a
monthly average Of 56.85 pounds
fat for period OF one year. This
record was begun on May 1, 1921,
and finished on April 80, 1922. 1t
sets a new mark for butterfat pro-
duction by a herd of 15 or more
Jerseys and also eclipses the best
records of the Guernsey and Ayre-
shire association. The total num-
ber Of cows participating in this
record was 81, with monthly av-
erage of I6 on test. With two ex-
ceptions these cows were bred by
Macarthur & Stauff.
Ten Average 66 Pounds
The most remarkable feature of
this great record lies in the fact
that the average age Of the cows
which established 1t was only 8
years months at the beginning
of their respective tests. Ten

herd has won the admiration, not
only of Jersey breeders, but of the
entire dairy world.
The foundation for this worlds
record herd was laid in 1914 when
Representative G. N, Macarthur
of Portland purchased purebred
Jersey bull and five females from
John f. Forbis of Forest Grove. A
year later Mr.. Macarthur formed
a partnership with o. b. Stauff, a
graduate of the Oregon AgricuI-
tural college. Mr.. Stauff has been
in charge of the herd and direct
ed the feeding during the recent
test. He has been assisted by John
L. Jepson, the herdsman. The
herd has had good care and at
tention and its general state of
health has been excellent.

Success in athletic contests is strongly desired by the graduate as well as the undergraduate bodies of the respective colleges. whether they are large or small, but above all there is a strong insistence that they shall be won upon merit and not by lodging the established require mentr.
 That is plainly set forth in the action which has been recently taken whereby the captains of three teams at Princeton have been declared ineligible to partici- pate in further intercollegiate events, and perhaps a fact that stands out more prominently than the others is that the bringing to light of the ineligibility of the captains was due to a movement that was set on foot by undergraduates fol- lowing talk to the effect that an injus- tice was being attempted.
 After the conditions had been inves- tigated by a committee of undergrad uates, the situation, together with rec concentrations, was laid before a com mittee representing Yale, Harvard and Princeton with the result that the men are not to be allowed to compete. It is regretted of course by the institution supporters and followers hut it displays the spirit of fairness that gives added in- terest to college games.
 As long as there are requirements which are expected to govern each and every college team there is no other hon. orabIe course than to abide by them That is what Princeton is doing, though it hurts temporarily, and yet it is actior that stands out greatly to it's credf. IT fact no institutio nof he kind could af- ford to do otherwise.

however he had grown to be the great man of blood and iron, framing his great empire until it was so perfect ed that it needed but the Franco -Prus- sian war to mould it into one of the greatest the world has ever seen. Through all this period one triumph of his policy had followed anothec, but the greatest of them all, no doubt, was the reconciliation of Austria.
 Bismarck was statesman. He won his battles through diplomacy and not the sword. Had he retained his strength and had he lived in 1914, he might have prevented the world war. 1 When in 1887 he found the military power so greatly in the ascendency, he appeared before the legislative body of the empire and said: If I were to say to you, We are threatened by France and Russia; it is better for us | to fight at once; an offensive war is more advantageous for us,' and ask for a credit of hundred millions, I do not know whether you would sIlut itI hope not"
 On March g, 1888, Bismarck stood at the bedside of the dying emperor With him passed the support on which Bismarck's S power rested. The new Elm peror' Fredericks reign lasted but l l Emperor William assumed the reins, on June Is, 1888. He speedily came ] into collision with Prince Bismarck.
 The prince spent the winter of 1889 at Friedrichsruh. When he returned to Berlin at the end of January he found l that his influence and authority had l been undermined. Bismarck was 75 years of age when the great rupture 1 between himself and the emperor took place. The emperor had, uTN Il several occasions, discussed questions of ad- ministration with some of Bismarck S | colleagues without consulting him. The , chancellor called the emperor's atteu- tion to the constitutional provision tthat the chancellor was responsible for all acts of the ministers and secretaries of states. The emperor, demanded that a new order be drawn up reversing this decree
 Bismarck refused to do this, where upon the emperor proposed to take away from the chancellor that supreme position he had so long enjoyed; tc recall into his own hands immediate
 control over all departments. In this depreciation of his position Bismarck would not acquiesce, and he had nc other alternative but to resign.
 The emperor was brutal in his de- mand for a speedy resignation Wher he saw the attitude of his people he tried to make it appear friendly. anG raised the retired chancellor to the rank of field marshal and created hin Duke of .Lauenburg. But no outward
 honors could recompense BismarcI for the affront he had received.

 longed for come too late. Forty year.

LET EVERYONE DO IT.

In connection with the purpose of the Boy Scouts to do good deed daily 1t is impossible to overlook one bit of excel. lent work that has been done by one troop in another state, where a cleanup movement had been inaugurated and where the village green seemed to ap- peal to the Scouts as being in such g condition that it needed their undivided attention until it could be made present. able
 Boy Scouts. are enthusiastic and thor ough workers when they get started and they carried out their effort in this towr with excellent results. There are many such opportunities for such organization to give helpful assistance. There is hard ly a campaign for the securing. of more attractive conditions in which they can. not play and do play an important part
 Aside from the work which they car do 1t Is well that they should be inter ested in such civic movements. Theil responsibilities in the community art certain to increase from year to year ant the closer they are brought in touch witt them during their years of development the better will be their understanding o1 such cooperative efforts.
 But it is not to be supposed that cleanup movements should be shuntet off onto the shoulders of the Boy Scouts or the boys in general. They can ant will do their part but there are the oth CTS who must lend their encouragement and give their support. It is where there is a general determination to overcome conditions which are known to be agains the best interests of any community where there is desire to improve tn appearances of property and where ther, is virile civic pride that there is set fortl lesson in community intedest that i bound to be far reaching in it's effect ant to accomplish much desired results.
 The Boy Scouts may we'll be asked t, help in carrying many a project to sue cess but they are not going to be yer, strongly impressed unless they see tha those to whom they look for guidance anc example set pace that at least equal what is expected of them.

ELECTION REsULTs

Those among the democrats who are trying to get a lot of consolation out of the results of the recent election in New Britain and in the 37th congressional district in New York state are overlook ing the underlying conditions.
 In the New Britain election it was plainly indicated that the result was di- 7ected by the republicans. There was B democratic mayor elected but he would not have been but for the votes of re- publicans Whenever there is a division In party's ranks there Is bound to be aappy results for the opposing party. There was 8 serious rift in the republican party as the result of the contest for the -epublican nomination. The fact that Candidate Quigley was successful meant hundreds of votes for his democratic on- 7onent and it was those hundreds of votes that elected the democratic mayor. A considerable block of republicans didn't simply refrain from voting for their mayoralty candidate but insisted on lelping his opponent and they accom- 'Iished their object. The rest of the re- publican city ticket against whom there was not that feeling, were elected, show Ing the normal republican strength.
 As to the contest in the New York congressional district there was a decided decrease in the majority by which the republican congressman was elected over his opponent but in this special election -here was not the aid of presidential contest like the landslide of 1920 to bring out inc votes and that within the past de- aade twice have republicans been elected Tn that district by smaller majorities and once democrat has been chosen.
 The measure of strength at this time concerned prohibition. That was the one big issue upon which the candidates went before the people in 8 large grape raising section of the state. Not a large vote was east but it showed the cities to be 'avorable to the vets and the country tc sde with the drys upon the question of ho Volstead act. With the candidates ined up on that question party politics ras sidetracked and there was little up. m which to base d comparison of actua- party strength. On the prohibition ques. ;ioE even it would indicate that all why lad been opposed to the saloon were not favorable to the Volstead law, thougI he majority of those voting stood by it
