TRUCKING IN LAMBS
THE LATEST WRINKLE

Bob Sugden, using five trucks this
week brought in 100 head of lambs
for Spencer Bros. from Poison Creek,
Owyhee county, and delivered them
at the local shipping yards without
the loss of a single baa-baa.
This is something new in the sheep
business and other concerns were OBJ
serving the trial with a great deal of
interest. The 5O-mile trip was made
in two days without incident. The
lambs averaged little over so
pounds per head.
To trail these lambs the so miles
covered would have taken between
ten and twelve days, and the shrink
age would have been great, so 1t looks
as though the truck method is the
best mode of transporting them which
has yet been tried.

BASIS FOR DAIRY INDUSTRY
Don't Wait In Meadows for Cow to
Back Up to Be Milked-Waste
Converted Into Milk.

Don't sit down in the meadow and
wait for the COW to back up to be
mllked-go after the cow" The basis
for the whole dairy industry Is the
COW, and If farmers are going to uti-
lie to the best advantage the guam
titles of roughage that annually are
wasted on every farm they must go
after the COW.
There Is no way to convert the
corn, the hay, the clover, the straw,
and the abundance of other forage
into marketable form so quickly
and so economically as by feeding to
the dairy cow. She works Gay and
night, summer and winter, week days
and Sundays, in flood and drought, to
convert the unmarketable waste of the
farm into a finished and valuable
product Of human food.
The first thing is to get the cows.
Profits are then assured.

DAIRY
POINTS
IMPROVE CAPACITY OF COWS
Testing Associations Aid Dairyman In
culllno Out Undesirable Animals
In Herd.

The chief agencies for improving the
capacity of dairy cows are the COW
testing association and testing for adj
vanced registration, according to state
dairy extension specialists. The
former aids the farmer-dairyman to
size up his herd, Gull out the undesir-
able animals and get his dairy upon
a business basis. The testing of pure
bred cows for advanced registry sorts
out the most desirable cows and bulls
for the improvement of the breed, and
furnishes large numbers of bulls that
are available to farmerdairymen for
mating with cows selected through the
use of the COW testing association.
In the Holstein-Frlesian Register,
the largest of all the breeds, $4,000
cows and 5000 bulls have been adj
mitted Among these animals are
found cows which have produced over
1000 pounds butterfat in one year.
The highest yearly record for butter
is held by May Walker Ollie Home
stead who produced 1922 pounds.
The COW holding the worlds milk
record is Segis Pietertje Prospect,
which In one year produced 4,672 gal
Ions, or an average of over 81 quarts
q day.

which are as follows:

4. Weed out the Improbable cows.
8. Weigh the milk each day.
@. Feed according to production.

ADVANTAGE IN KNOWING cow
Small Breeder ls In Better Position
to Increase MIX Yield Than
Large Owner.

In the matter of knowing the in
dividuality of the cows the small
breeder has an advantage over the
man with a large herd. The man
with 100 or more cannot know his
animals so well nor hope to get so
much out of them. The old saying,
know myself" is no more excellent
than is the one, ''Know thy cows"

PLAN TO AVOID DIRTY MILK
Where Cows Are Kept Indoors for
Greater Part Of Day Pay At
tention to Bedding.

Dirty milk is most often caused by
the accumulation of dirt on the COW
when confined to the stable for the
greater part Of the day. While the
cows are kept indoors most of the
time, more attention should be given
to the bedding, and the manure should
be removed frequently

NEW BIG RADIO SET
 SERVES PRESID F, F Y

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-Wireless has brought America to President Harding's private study in the White House.
 By means of new and powerful wireless receiving set, which has just been installed in the executive mansion by the operations depart ment of the Marine Corps, President Harding now can listen in" on radio broadcastings throughout the nation.
 The new wireless outfit is a Marine Corps set which was used during the war on mammoth tanks by the combatant forces of the United States on French battlefronts. It replaced a smaller navy receiving set which formerly was at the White House.
 President Harding operates the set, himself According to friends he spends many hours, usually after hard days work in the office, lis tening to concerts, speeches and ra- diO programs from such distant points as Chicago, Detroit, New York, Philadelphia and Pittsburg. He al ways finds keen joy whenever he tunes in" on some famous orChes- tra, or a program by well-knoWn singer.
 Because he has denied himself all social engagements during Mrs. Hard ings conyalescence, the President has turned to the wireless for his evenings entertainment instead of going to the theater or to local en tertainments. This is said to be the chief reason he ordered the larger radio set, in order to be able to hear broadcastings from the big wireless stations of the country

AUTO FOOT NEWEST
 MOTORISTS MALADY

BOSTON, Jan. 18.-"Auto-foot IS the latest of foot troubles. It is due to stepping on the gas Dr. Ma thaniel Levinton, Boston foot spe- cialist, finds this complaint becoming more and more common.
 Speaking of the trouble, Dr. Levin ton says that it usually affects the right leg, due to an excessive use of that member in feeding the car. The constant pressure of the ball of the foot on the accelerator causes pain in that part of the foot, followed by numbness of the entire foot and leg. Cramps in the cali muscles are associated with this condition.
 To overcome the trouble massage the foot and leg. Exercises of the foot and toes should effect a cure, say physicians.

Twenty five years ago large nercentage of the insane came from the rural farm districts and the ln- valid people who are 'shut-ins.

Automo- bile riding is tonic treatment for neurasthenics It sends the blood flowing through the entire circulatory system, arouses assimilation, and so nourishes afresh the nerve centers.
