ardship and Responsibility,
He Says.

Col. c. o. Sheriff. officer in charge
of public buildings and grounds, is
In hearty accord with the organized
movement among automobilists
throughout the. country to stop the
practice of leaving litter and rub
bish along roadways, in public parks
and in the country.
This officer is in receipt of a COM
rnunication from Earle II. McHugh,
secretary of the Motorists League
for Countryside Preservation, with
headquarters in New York, of which
President Harding is honorary head,
urging the cooperation of the local
automobile owners in national
campaign to clean up as they go"
In explaining the objects of the
league Col. Sheriff. said it is the
desire to instill in the motoring pub
lie sense of stewardship and re-
sponsibility. He said that investi-
cation has proved the prevalence Of
the unthinking practice Of littering
the countryside with rubbish: Some
control can be had over visiting mo-
torists through the authority invest
ed in the office of public buildings
and grounds. but those studying the
subject contend that after all the
only effective way to stop the prac-
tice is through an appeal TO the mo-
toring public. He said that he has
been asked by officers of the league
to invite local automobilists to join
the league. 1t was pointed out that
the organization has no dueS-the
only obligation is a promise to re-
frain from littering stopping places
in the future.

SEE WORLD COURT
SNAGGED|NS SENATE
6. Q. p. Leaders Say Johnson
Proves IrreconciIabIes Not
l. Won by Harding.

An outstanding feature of Senator
Hiram Johnson's pronouncement
against the world court in New York
last night Is the fact that President
Harding has failed to rally any Of the
old irreconsilable support to his court
plan through his St. Louis speech, in
the opinion of political observers here
today The President, in St. Louis.
proposed to divorce the world court
absolutely from the league of nations
and to make 1t a self f-perpetuating
body.
Tho johnson speech attacking the
world court was received here by re-
publican leaders without surprise
They admitted, however. that it would
undoubtedly make ratification Of the
protocol proposing adherence of the
United States to the world court more
difhcult. Without allowing them
selves TO be quoted, they said also
they had reached the conclusion some
time ago the President had no chance
OF getting the protocol through the
Senate.
Swanson Sees Chance.
Senator Swanson of Virginia, rank
ing democratic member of the Senate
foreign relations committee, said:
III the President would stick to
MS original proposal on the world
'Souil' Win the ftUSneS reservation,
he could get 1t ratified by the Senate"
Senator Swansons idea was that it
was idle for the President to seek
to conciliate the old irreconcilable
group among the republicans on the
world court proposal.
Tho Virginia senator himself Is to
sail for Europe next Wednesday.
Senator Johnson has brought back
from Europe Just what he took over
there" said Senator Swanson. In
aa mi ht1pr he,c n rNf
other senator's who have visited
Europe this year. They have not
: changed their views because Of their
travels"
Sees Harding Renominated.
The opinion was expressed here
today by one of the most prominent
of the republican leaders that Sem
ator Hiram johnson would not be a
candidate for the republican nomi-
nation, but that the denomination of
President Harding would surely take
place.
The people of the United States. IL
was pointed out. are more Interested
Nm domestic affairs than in Europe.
the league of nations and the world
court. An effort by Senator Johnson
TO make an issue of the world court
would fail. it was said. and the Cali
forntan would be left without any
Issue.
In Toilette to Sail.
Senator La Toilette OF Wisconsin,
progressive republican, who aided ma
terially in the campaign which re-
suited in the recent election Of Sena-
tor Magnus Johnson, the farmer-labor
candidate, in Minnesota, is in Wash :
ington today. He is preparing to visit
europe, to study conditions there with
particular reference to the co-opera-
tive marketing systems adopted in
some of the European countries. He
VIII leave here next week and Will
sail Wednesday.
Senator Jim Watson of Indiana also
is in Washington today comforting
with republican leaders as to what
can be done to rally the republican
forces for the campaign next year. In
the opinion Of Senator Curtis of
Kansas, the republicans can win the
election if they will get out and work
and conduct meetings in all the
schoolhouses and in every rural COM
munity as well as in the cities.

And it is very true that the careful

Blood Concentration
One of the most successful breeders |
of pure bred cattle, whose splendid |
work came to an end through his
death some years ago, used during
his entire breeding career over 100
pure bred bulls during a period of
more than 80 years. The herd at
times numbered around 500 head.1
More than 80 of the bulls used in
the herd were bred in the herd and
rs per cent of those were very
successful sires. Only one Of those

Good Breeding Essential
The producer of live stock for thu
market may be quite Indifferent abou'
the value of pedigree when he is
adding pure bred sires to the herd
He regards the pedigree usually, II
it is good for it's face value, as q
guarantee that there has been no in
fusion or admixture of outside blood
into the ancestry of the individual
in question. And this is all that a
pedigree means to any one it they
are not acquainted with the perfor-
nance and individuality of the ami
mails appearing in the ancestral line
up.
It's the intensified inheritance of
the pure bred that triumphs over the
diversified inheritance of the scrub
which enables is to improve our COM
mercial herds and fiocks.
The pedigree, in the breeders eyes,
stands as a recommendation of per-
formance based on ancestral records.
In a general way it is the sum total
of the heritage q the animal it re-
presents. The animal is a composite
of all his ancestors and his pedigree
is desirable only in so far as it shows
that these ancestors were good indi-
viduals and typical of the breed con-
cerned. A pedigree showing a hetero-
geneous mass of individuality is of
doubtful value for the animal possess
ing such a pedigree will have a ten
dency to breed %unevenly. The force
Of heredity is weakened in such cases
because of the diversity of direction
n which it has been employed.
