What the Dairy Herd
Is Doing for the Farm
Address of Hon. Donald Despair before the LeSeur, MINI. CONNER.
cal Club. Taken from the LeSeur Herald. e.

By special arrangement of the
Store Bureau, Donald Despair of St.
Paul attended a meeting of the Com
mercial club and gave a talk on the
Importance Of the dairy. His talk was
right to the point, and we wish every
n in this community could have
heard him. He said in part:
"In 1917 Douglas county paid 1905
creamery patrons S745,O0O for butter
fat. They did not stop at this but in
1920 had increased their cream and
milk producers to 1857 and this mum
Der of farmers received the greatly
increased sum of 1881 900. In those
four years the bank deposits of the
county increased from S1,47O,O 900 to
S~3,512,OOO. The two counties named
rank in the same class as LeSueur
county in population.
what can the dairy industry do for
LeSueur county?
"You have 1920 COWS in your coun-
ty, of which four per cent or 500 are
purebred or highly bred grade cows,
leaving 11,770 scrub cows, largely rep
.resenting boarders who do not pay for
their board. One-fifth or 1854 good
grade cows will produce returns equal
to the 11,700 scrubs. This leaves g.
400 cows representing economic waste
and at a keeping cost of $3.50 per
COW per year shows an economic waste
of S1,412,000. If these scrubs were
replaced with good grade cows your
annual milk check of LeSueur county
would jump from $S23,467 to $2,47O,-
4O1. Or, if there was a "herd on ev-
cry farm" in LeSueur county of ten
cows per farm, and being all good
grade cows, you would have 22,18O
cows; and with an estimated butter
fat production of 800 pounds per COW
your butter fat output would soar
from 1%,154,OO0 pounds to 900
pounds, and the income to your far
mers therefrom would be S. 1927. 900
instead Of 1871, 900 as at present.
There is a chance for this COM
munity to put itself on the map. The

movies" ON CEILING
NEWEST IN HIGH ART

Flat on his back in bed, Lou CLANCY
whiled away an hour of the dawn by
looking at the daily "rushes" of his
forthcoming Jewel production, "Bitter
Sweet" in a little hotel at Fallbrook,
Calf. He was helping Charles Stall
ings, unit production manager of Uni
versal City, establish a new record for
production efficiency. CLANCY studied
his work as it was projected on the
ceiling, then rolled over and dashed off
to sleep. In the next room Lambert
Hillyer, his director, rubbed sleep from
his eyes and watched the film as it
sprang into life on the ceiling over
his bed.
1t is necessary for star and director
to see each days footage as the story
progresses. In this case it meant three
round trips a day between Universal
City and Fallbrook for Stallings in
sixty hours. At the end of each day
the footage would be rushed to the
Universal City laboratory. There it
was developed and print made. Then
Stallings would hit the boulevard, TAX
ing advantage of the hour for speed.
A portable projecting machine would
be used to show the film. With sug-
gestions for it's improvement Stallings
would then dash back to Universal
City and arrive in time to be~in his
days work with the other units owe
which he has supervision.

for example, Utah or Idaho or New
Mexico have to display. The war of
automobile trails bids fair to hide the
genuine glOries of the vast national
domain.
The automobile speed record from
coast to coast is approximately five
days. Judging from this enormously
difficult accomplishment tourists figure
on a haunt from New York to San
Francisco in 20 days or so. This
time demands nearly 200 miles a day
Of travel. The fact Of the matter is,
any one undertaking to drive from the
Atlantic to the Pacific in 80 days has
thrown the scenery of the journey
away for the questionable privilege Of
watching the rlts and chucks.
1t takes a strong man to hold a
wheel from New York to San Fran
Cisco in 30 days steadily with $50
miles a day average; If there are any
DELAYS for broken springs and other
troubles due to reckless driving over
bad roads. day runs must be increased.
There is no way of avoiding deserts,
mountain ranges, poor roads or the
great open spaces. The Santa Fee
route follows the railroad closely, and
here the houses or towns are seldom
more than 20 or 80 miles apart
along the highway. A train must
stop when signaled by any one in the
New Mexican, Arizonan or Californian
deserts. Water must be carried by
every tourist who values his Nfe.

nerance leads many to deadly peril
from thirst.

Simple Signals Urged
AS Accident Prevention
Easy-to-Recognize Traffic Direc.
tions Called Great Benefit
to Drivers

Simplicity in traffic signals will go
further toward preventing accidents
on the streets and highways than any
one other thing, in SO far as the mo-
torists are concerned, according to the
National Motorists Association.
The value, in this connection, Of sim
plicity, it is pointed out, lies in the
fact that a few natural easy to recog-
nize signals will soon become second
nature to drivers and also familiar to
pedestrians. In statement on the
subject the N. M. A. says:
"one trouble is that different signals
are observed in different cities or parts
of the country and another is that
these all too often partake too much
of gesticulation. For example, there
are certain well known signals used
now almost universally by drivers who
persist in them merely because they
are easy TO recognize, and will be the
more readily followed"

Truck Dealers Hear
Procedure Used to
Protect Highways
Reasons for Refusal to Is
sue Licenses Are Told
by Director Lord of the
Motor Vehicle Bureau

Among the matters of Importance
brought before the Motor Truck Deal
ers' Association OF America at the
luncheon held here last Friday was
the address made by Bert Lord, di-
rector of the Motor Vehicle Bureau Of
this state. It dealt with the revoking
OF licenses in the campaign to insure
safety on the highways.
In part, Mr.. Lord said:
You have been told there were over
2,SO0 licenses that we refused to issue
at the beginning of the year. That is
not for the whole state, but Just for
the metropolitan district.
FROM time to time we get reports
from the Police departments of those
who have been convicted of speeding
three times, those who have been con-
Ylcted of felonious assault, homicide,
leaving scene OF accident and various
other violations of the laws. AS soon
as we get these reports we take from
our addressograph system, where we
have little stencil of this persons
name, that particular name and put 1t
IN our conviction ale.
When our renewals are sent out,
the first of the year, that person does
not get renewal OF his license. Be-
Tore he can get license again he
must come to our office, and these peo-
pic usually come in and ask why they
have received no license renewal, and
we state to them that on such and
such an occasion they violated the mo-
tor vehicle law and therefore we can't
license.
I'VE say to them: However, ii you
think differently, we are willing to
hear your case and in all eases where
persons ask to be heard they are
heard either by Commissioner MacNiel
or myself. We hear all of those cases,
"lf the man proves to us (and we
think he has a good case) that per-
haps he wasn't to blame for the acci-
dent, he must give references from at
least three people whom we are IA
mlliar with and who know him, and If
after an investigation we find the man
is! entitled to a new license we issue
him one. Sometimes we may hold it
up for three months OR six months, as
matter of punishment. and in some
cases we suspend the matter indefinite
~. and there are some to whom we
never. intend to issue a license again
to drive.
