A new class for farm horses is t.
be feature of this Show. At all for
mer shows there have been only two
classes for farm horses-the genera
purpose horse and the heavy draft
class.
This year there will be included g
class called farm chunks" for blocky
horses around 400 pounds. There
are several very good horses of this
class around here, and their owners
are urged to bring them in.
If you have good horses of any
sort, bring them in; class will be
found for them.
The following classes will be recog-
nized: Shetland, Roadsters, Saddlers,
General Purpose, Farm Chunks,
Heavy Draft, Jacks and Mules.
The horses need not be present ex-
cept on the last day of the Show, Jrne
End. They should be in for judging by
ten o'clock that morning.
One of the many things that
has made this show of such educa-
tional value has been the pains taken
by the judges to explain to the ex-
hibitors and spectators the reason for
Judging. This show is put on for no
other reason than to promote better
live stock. Shows of any other kind
are not allowed on the grounds to in
terfere with the work. Those who at
tend come with the idea of improving
themselves in the management of live

stock. That the stock show has ac-
complished this result is seen by the
increasing number of pure-bred live
stock in this vicinity.
A catalog of this years entries is
Just being printed. This gives the
names of the animals and the exhibit
tor. 1t is we'll illustrated with pic
lures and makes good souvenir of
the show. These are sent to the coun-
ty agents in this state and surround
ing states and to prominent breeders
throughout the state. 1t is considered
that this is an excellent way of put
ting the work of the Stock Show
Association before the state, and that
by continually working for larger and
better shows each year, River Falls
will be known as an important live
stock center in the state.
Arrangements have been completed
with moving picture company and

The Stock Show

The Stock Show is scheduled for
Thursday and Friday Of next week,
June 1st and 2nd. The high standard.
of the previous shows IS going to be
sxcellej in this years show. The
number Of entries already exceed
those of last year and Indications
point toward q larger number still.
Us.ose who have been following tbs
Live Stock Show for the past ten
years have noted the improvement
in the quality of the animals end this
years entries are without doubt OF
q higher type than those at any pre-
vious show. The Association at a
meeting in the spring passed a rul-
ing requiring that all animals must
have had the tuberculin test within
a period of year.
Due to lack of entries in the hog
department, on account of the poor
time of year for the showing of hogs,
there will be no hogs shown this year.
We would like to develop a good
swine show but June is very un-
favorable time for holding it. 1t may
be possible that we can arrange for
a hog show in the fall.
The cattle will be housed in the
stock sheds built by the farmers last
year. A large tent has been secured
and the Judging will take place in
this. Judging begins at ten o'clock
Thursday morning, June 1st, and will

Married Teachers To Remain In New
 Haven's Schools

The mooted question as to whether CT not married women teachers in the New Haven schools shall give way to those unmarried, was settled for the present by the Board of Educa- ton in long session, when 1t was voted that the married teachers shall not yet be deposed.
 It is understood that the action of the board will mean that the mar Tied teachers are safe for a year at least.
 The contracts of about 50 married teachers who hold regular positions, which were held up by Superintend dent Beede for consideration of the ques- tton by the board, will now be sent out The contracts for all other teachers have already been sent out
 The question of the advisa biIity of retaining married teachers came con- siderably to the fore this year in view Of the over-supply of candidates for positions and the tendency on the part of those having regular appoint ments to hold onto their jobs
 Whether or not the school board could legally force the resignation of teacher because she is married seems to be in doubt, some authorf- ties holding that if she is under the tenure of office act she cannot be de- posed for this reason.

DIET SPECIALIST
 DECLARES MILK
 UNNATURAL FOOD

London. June 12-'Is there any one subject today upon which doctors agree?" asks a sceptical newspaper comm enting on the advice of Dr. Ce- cil Webb-J ohnson, who has said: Never drink milk; it is an unnatural food save for the young"
 Giving his reasons for this revo1u- tionary opinion Dr. Webb-J ohnson, a specialist on diet, said to a question CT:
 We are the only animals in the world who drink milk after infancy. The domestic cat, 1t may be pointed out, drinks milk after it has grown up. but this Is purely domestic habit.
 The idea has been handed down through generations that milk is a good thing to drink when you are i'll. I think 1t is the worst thing, and I never allow my patients to have it. It causes constipation, fla tulence. a dirty tongue and leads to rheumatism, headaces and tried feel ings- Taken in excess it often causes appendicitis
 Mature does not intend milk to be taken after the purpose for which it was provided has been fulfilled. prefer hard food always. Frequent H-Somedmes habitual1y-people will go whole days without hard food of any description That. for one thing, is bad for the teeth. Celery, apples and other things that make you bite should be on the table every day.
 'Nor is milk good for the body in addition to ordinary food It makes one fat, and a fat person cannot be healthy.'
