"P00R SIRE Is ALL OF HERD"

til everyone has picked out the best
and only the culls are leftY
Again you may make the mistake
Of buying a young boar and start
using him without trying him out.
In selecting a herd boar, three
things should be considered, individu-
atty, ancestry and If an aged animal,
his offspring. In considering the lndlvid-
ual, of course type, quality, bone, mas
cullnity and size for age are the main
things to consider, The prospective
purchaser should always insist on see-
Ing the sire and dam, and as many Of
the close relatives as possible. BY so
doing, one gets a good idea of what
he can expect from the boar when he
Is mated to suitable females. OF
course, the surest buy Is to buy the
aged boar which has been tried, and
IN considering him, one should always
insist on seeing as many Of his Off
spring as possible. Here one has a
sure check of what the boar will do.

outbreaks Of roup In the fall occur

these are birds purchased from other

MANY CRASH CROSSING GATES
One Barrier on Long Island Railroad
Is Broken Every Day-Drivers
Want to Beat Trains.

Thousands of motorists annually
smash through gates at railroad
crossings In the United States. This
fact indicates two sides to the grade
crossing argument.
On the Long Island railroad. which
has only 400 miles of track. one grade
crossing gate is broken practically
every day in the year by motor driv-
ers who attempt to beat trains to
crossings"
In the last year there were approx
mately 300 u such accidents on this
line alone. according to 7. p. Brennan,
safety agent. From August Is to 20
of this year there were Is such mis-
haps on this road, resulting in inju-
ries u many persons. One was killed.
Railroads of the United States are
in a campaign to cut down accidents
ofsaII Kinds. Including those at grade
crossings. Motorists are asked TO en-
ter this campaign and aid In making
our highways safer by constant vigil
lance.
How In the name of heaven" said
Mr.. Brennan, can the Long Island or
any other railroad render safe and
prompt service to its patrons when the
public highways are infested with
motorcar drivers who refuse to exer-
else caution when approaching rail-
road grade crossings, who gloat over
the fact that they beat the train to
these intersections and who are daily
apparently willing to sacrifice not only
their own lives but the lives of those
intrusted to their care?"
