Not So Bad In
Russia, He Says

Los ANGELES, Nov. 14.-The
majority of the people of Russia
don t like the Bolshevik government
but they are afraid to overthrow it
for fear of something worse i'll the
administrative affairs of the ma
nation. according to f. W. Rankin,
who recently returned from Il bust
ness trip in Russia.
1.-The government is composed of
intellectuals and labor leaders, .
Rankin said. THE peasants and
laborers submit to the government
through fear but mostly because it
is much easier for them to live I'M
der the Bolshevik regime than that
of the Car.
"All of the news coming from
Russia is subjected to government
censorship, consequently the outside
world doesn T learn the truth about
the country. However, much pcan
be said in favor of the government
and | believe it is seated more firm
~ than at any time in the past two
years.

tested in the Imperial County Farm
Bureau Cow Testing association. The
average production for these 2207
cows was go lbs. of milk and
25.9 lbs. of butterfat each. This
is quite 4 noticeable increase in
production over September, for the
1857 cows tested that month aver
aged only SCI lbs. of milk and 23.3
lbs. of butterfat each.
The highest producing COW tested
his month was owned by A. Burger
of Holtville. she is grade Hol-
stein which produced 70.7 lbs. OF
tutterfat for the month. A. Bur
ger also had the largest herd aver
age and the largest number of 40

Twenty-seven unprofitable' cows
were culled during October by
