Big Five Faces
 Acid Strike Test

(Continued from Page One) relieve their roads of a growing short age of usable rolling stock, with a bumper crop nearly upon them, and on a large scale.
 ''As we have already indicated. said the president of large road which serves the upper Mississippi valley, we believe we could take back every striker without having to re- lease a single one of the new men now in our shops.
 ''The seniority question? Well, we are not in position to dictate. We need our men, and are willing to take them back with their old rights, if it can be arranged to the satisfaction of those now in our employ
 Opposing this attitude and with forces more compact1y mustered, were the heads of the powerful east ern roads, led by L. F. Loree of the bury of the Pennsylvania, A. H. Smith of the New York Central, Frederick Underwood of the Erie. and E. J.. Pearson of the New Haven. Their shops are well manned; they are near tc the largest labor markets, and, they maintain. they are ready to back their pledges to stand by the loyal new men whom were hired on prom ise to put them ahead of strikers on the seniority roils.''
 The only eastern president about whom this group expressed any un- eainess was Daniel Willard who, it was said, might join the peace at any price, delegation from the west of which Hale Holden, President of the c. B. & c. and S. M. Felton of the Chicago Great Western. were pointed out as leaders.
 Several deve1opements of late yes- terd2y injected a spirit of uncertain ty into the ranks of the executives and brought predictions in some sources that a relignment would set in as soon as these new factors were recognized at the conference. In the meantime, 16 heads of raj labor orga nizations both the 'tbig i've. brotherhoods and the shor crafts were gathering at their New fork headquarters. to await the out

Super Cows Bred
 By U. s. Dept. Of Agriculture

Washington, Aug 23-Breeding a dairy COW that will give enough milk six times the capacity of the ordinary COW, is one of the feats of the in- dustry which has been accomplished by the U. S. Department of Agricul- ture, and which can be done by prop CT feeding and selective breeding. On its experimental farm near Beltsville, Md. the department has a herd of six COWS, the result of breeding of more than 22,000 pounds of milk in 365 days. This little herd yields enough milk to provide quart a day to ITO children. An ordinary COW or scrub produces only enough milk to feed five chil- dren a quart a day, while a good COW yields enough to give 20 children a quart a day. The supercow. as the department calls her. and there are more and more of them in this class I every year. gives enough milk so that quantity to all the small children in a small town.
 The improvement of dairy cows means moGe than increased profits to the dairyman, the department de- clares, it means cheaper and more milk, the best bone and muscle mak- CT for children. Good breeding and good feeding have made the difference. What this means is brought out forci- bly in poster prepared by the de, partment which is available to all those interested in the subject.
 In the same connection, the de partment shows that culling the poul- try flock to get rid of all birds ex- cept the vigorous, prolific layers, re- suits in noticeable improvement in the progeny, as well as in an increase of eggs.
 Recent experiments with the poul- try at the Beltsville farm showed that the late moulters selected from a flock of 100 Rhode Island Reds in the fall of 1920, laid seven more eggs per bird during their second veal than the original flock of bullets They were used as breeders the fol lowing spring and the first red pull. lets to commence laying in the fal of 1921 were found to be the off spring of these late-moulting hens Their bullets in a period of sever months have already averaged aoou two dozen eggs per bird more thar the original flock.
 It is not alone in number of egg: that the late-mou1ters progeny eX eel, the department report continues hut also in the value of the product as the distribution was more even, much larger roposition of the egg being laid during the winter months In the last seven months the daugh ters of the late-moulters not oEl. averaged two dozen eggs per b1rt more than the original flock, but tn value of their product was. figuring a the same prices. about $1.04 per b1r' more during the same period. It l expected that this margin will in crease.

British Soldier Keeps Watch Over
 Rejoicing Israel

Jerusalem. Aug. 23-This is the great Moslem feast of Bairam, and Palestine and Syria present scenes of unusual gaiety and animation. The two countries are really one. Only the artificial division to suit the ideas of British and French mandates make them two. The people are the .an'e. A1eppo, by the extra ordin- ary French agreement with Musta- pha Renal of Angora, is now de- prived of all its hinterland and all it's trade, and it must either die or be returned to the Turk again.
 The crops are being reaped, the barley cut, and the fields are resplend- ent with flowers. One can see pro- totypes of Ruth and Naomi in every field. cutting the corn with the sickle and cleaning afterwards as they did in slopes of Bethlehem. This scene e probably has been painted hundred artists, but they have never got it quite right. For the women of the East squat on their heels to reap using the left hand to hold the slleaf pictures Ruth is always shown as gracefully bending but no Arab ever | oends In the East no one ever walks, where he can ride, or stands can lie down. This Is the land of true repose.
 | The Arab custom Is to have three great blocks of areable land. and to | cultivate them. one every third year, | leaving the other two great fields ly- tng faHow. They use the same l primitive methods of cultivation as of old; camel yoked with-a donkey to pull the wooden plough, and the sickle as the only instrument of husband ry.

Collins Death Hastens
 War on DeValera
(Continued from Page One)

(COntinued from Page One)
 Collins did not feel any personal hatred for the irregulars. He merely believed them misguided. In a re- cent conversation with International News Service correspondent the con- versation turned to commandant Dempsey, leader of the rebels in Wes- tern Cork.
 "Oh, Dempsey is a good fellow exclaimed Collins. "He has been a great friend of mine, but he is on the wrong side.'
 It is reported that there is a di- vision of opinion in the cabinet over the policy to be pursued towards De Valera. Before his death Collins took a lenient attitude. He was opposed to arresting De Valera for fear such action would martyrize the rebel lead CT. Other members of the ministry, however, urged that De Valera be treated as ''an outlaw and a mur- derer.'
 Free State officials are believed to know where De Valera is at pres ent and are able to lay hands upon him if they wish.
 When Collins departed for the Southwest he was in an optimistic even jocular mood, believing that the trregulars would all be rounded up soon and the fighting ended. About the last conversation he held pre- v1ous to his death referred to the shooting of Harry Roland.
