FINANCIER PUTS
MAN IN ROMANCE

To put the man in romance was the
task which Quentard Lorris, the
noted financier, set for himself. He
knew that his only daughter, who
would inherit his millions, was of an
imaginative turn of mind, and he
feared that some graspng, suave adj
venturer would make her his victim
Lorris had put over many smash
ing deals in Wall Street, but this was
the most difficult proposition he had
eyer faced-tO get a son-in-law who
would be honest and wholesome and
at the same time meet the specifica-
tons of Betty his daughter And to
do it all without letting either know
it was being done.
Lorris had to play sick, and then
insane, in order to carry out his
scheme, but the results JUST; ad the
steps he took. 1t must also be taken
into consideration that Lorris had
keen sense of humor and was an ex-
pert judge of character to explain
why his experiments in the human
equation came out so happily all
around. He took big chance in Jug
Cling with hearts, but then Quentard
Lorris was never the man to be stop
ped by big chances.

Decrease In LIVESTOCK
In STATE ALARMING

The total number of livestock in
the state is decreasing in alarming
numbers, according to DR.. j. d.
Adams, director of the bureau of ami
al industry, whose report for the first
three months of 1922 shows that 1857
animals went out of the state and
only 633 came in the same time, says
the Idaho Statesman.
More attention must be paid to the
breeding of livestock" the director
said, cor the state will be without
cattle or horses to do it's required
work. 1t is really alarming to know
that 952 horses were shipped out Of
the state in the first three months of
1922 and only 141 came in"
Cattle received in the state in the
three months totaled 466 and hogs
26. The number exported in that time
was: Cattle, 1407 and hogs, 1916.
The principal importation of cattle
was dairy cattle and Doctor Adams
recommends that the person reSpons-
ible for the selection of these cattle
see that they are selected from tuber-
culosis-free herds.
He points to the fact that the first
year of the tuberculosis eradication
work among cattle showed that more
than 8 per cent of the cattle tested
were infected. In 1921, he says, only
90 of 1 per cent reacted to the tests
for the disease
