IRON co. NEEDS MORE cows
By Dan A. Shaffer
County Agricultural Agent

We need more cows to eat the grass
and hay that is left to waste or sold
off the farm at nominal price. We
need more cows to help the farmer
pay for his farm. We need more cows
to provide for proper food for the fu-
ture farmers of Iron County. We need
more cows to change the system of
farming and to assist the farmer in
obtaining a profitable winters employ
ment at home. We need more cows
to help stay the mighty drain each
year Of soil fertility. We need cows,
good cows, well-cared-for cows wher-
ever folks live and fields are farmed
and grasses grow.
II makes no difference whether we
have but one family COW, or whether
we have three or four or a herd of
twenty or forty cows, or if we want
to sell milk, cream or butter-we
want the best we can get. If we
don't want all Of this and if we don't
do our best to get it, there is some
thing wrong with us.
TO get the most and best milk,
cream and butter and profit from our
cows we must have the right kind of
cows, give them the best Of care and
handle and sell the milk, cream or
butter in the best way.
How Will We Get the Right
Kind of Cows?
There are two ways to get good
cows; one way is to buy them, the OF
her way is to raise them When we
buy them we are running a chance of
getting poor ones but when we raise
them on our own farms we know all
about them. Few men ever make
success of dairying when they depend
on buying all of their cows. The best
and cheapest way is to raise them.
The first thing that we must do in
starting a dairy herd is to get good
bull Swat the scrubs" if we have
one and get a good purebred. A good
bull with long line of high produc-
ing ancestors is about 1870 of the herd
when the cows are mixed natives, but
it takes more than one cross to make a
good herd out Of a bad.
How Can We Tell a Good Cow
From Poor One7
There are two ways to Judge dairy
COW. The first way is to weigh the
milk, keep a daily record of the
amount she gives, testing her milk
TO find out how much butter fat there
is in it, and keeping a record of the
feed she eats. Then we can tell if she
is paying for her feed and giving us
profit This is the sure way to Judge
a COW. The second way to ten a good
COW is by examining and Judging by
certain shapes and characteristics
whether or not she is a good cow.
Attend One Of the Livestock Meetings
and Learn the Points of Good Cow
Prof. ColIentine will discuss the
good and bad points of dairy COW

ARE YOU RUN DOWN.
Awaken tc the Danger and Aid the
Weakened Kidneys.

Kidney sickness often runs you
down to the verge of collapse before
you know the cause. When you
seem unable to pin your mind to any
task, your back aches and you cannot
do an ordinary days work, it is time
to ask yourself this question:
"Are my kidneys working right"
The answer may be easily found.
Weak kidneys slacken their filter
ing work and the uric acid circulates
with the blood, in many cases, at
lacking brain, nerves, muscles and
vital organs Don't wait for the
serious troubIe-begin using Doan's
Pills when you feel the first back
ache or first notice urinary dis
orders. This remedy has given new
life and strength to thousands.
Proof of merit in a Hurley citi-
zen's statement.
Mrs. Glenn Woodford, So Iron ST.,
says: "My kidneys gave out and l
was in misery, for backache was
sapping my strength. When l did
any work, shooting twinges went
through my kidneys. My kidneys
didn't act right. Doan's Pills put
an end to backache and strengthened
my kidneys. Doan's cured me of
the complaint"
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get
Doan's Pills-the same that Mrs.
Woodford had. -Milburn Co.,

1000 IDLE AS
FIGHT is MADE
ON STREET BIDS
B ric k Monopoly Is
Threatened

While war RACES between John J.
Sloan, president Of the Chicago board
of local improvements, and Peter S.
Shaughnessy, president of the Brick
layers union and a large sharehold-
er in the Washington Construction
company, 1000 men are idle in the
city, and the street improvement work
involving $7,OOOOOO expenditures is
held up.
Sloan claims that he wants to break
the Washington company's monopoly
on city street work and he has given
the Mansfield avenue work to the
Union Contracting Company Arthur
Wallace, a business agent Of the
painters union, is one Of the officials
of this concern.
Say 1t With Bricks?
The particular job involved is the
construction of catch-basins and man
holes. Sloan promised that the new
company, using concrete, would save
the city considerable expense. Bngi-
neers and the bricklayers deny the
possibility of saving this way, and the
fight fares merrily.
The bricklayers and excavators are
prevented from working on the Union
Construction job by union orders. In
retaliation Sloan stopped the men
from working on all other street jobs,
including those on which the Wash
ington Company had the contracts.
The 1000 workers involved pro-
test in vain to their union and to
Sloan. They were just ready to make
their days count after the idleness Of
the winter season.

Why u. S. Thinks
Filipinos N e e d
Ruling Rubber

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 12.-
Vast tracts of land in which the soil is
suitable for the establishment of rub
Der plantations have been located on
territory within the possessions of the
United States government by a party
of investigators sent to the orient by
the department of commerce, accord
ing to Mark Baldwin of the United
States department of agriculture, who
has just returned with the expedition,
which he accompanied in the capacity
of soil expert. These lands, now
growing native grasses and timber,
are located on the island of Minda-
mao, in the southernmost large island
of the Philippines, and adjacent small
er islands.
Nearly so per cent of the rubber
produced in the world is consumed in
the United States, and, so far as
known, practically all is grown within
10 degrees latitude of the equator.
The possession of this territory within
the climatic range of possible rubber
production offers an opportunity for
United States capital to engage in one
Of the most important industries in

Sr.
This theory confirms the statement
made to The Intelligencer by Jerome
Watson, chief of the Division Of Mines
Of the State Of Ohio, and in Benwood
at the present time as the official re-
preventative of the Ohio governor.
Watson said at that time that no &C.
cident of the kind would have hap
pened had proper inspection of the
mine been made prior to the men en-
tering the mine.
Heron left his home, Ninth and
Chess, MonongaheIa, Pa, Sunday,
April 20, and came to Benwood, ac-
cording to Craig and confirmed by
his landlady, who stated he engaged
room there Monday, April 81. He
was employed as fire boss as shown
by the officials list, furnished by the
company entering the mine Monday
morning
No Qualification For Job
Credentials furnished the company
by Heron were obviously such, as to
warrant his employment by the COM
pany. His brother-in-law, however,
claims that he had no qualifications
for this job and that he was here on
a secret mission, Federal Secret Serv-
ice.
Friday night Matthew received a
telephone call from Pittsburgh to
meet certain operatives of the Secret
Service Department on business
which was. naturally unknown to me,
said Mr.. Craig. "He spent Saturday
and Sunday in Pittsburgh, but failed
to meet his party. Late Sunday after
noon Heron came out to our house
and gave me all the information am
now giving to you. The responsibility
of his mission in Benwood must have
weighed heavily on his mind, as he
tried several times to tell me of it,
but each time was interrupted by the
entrance of members of the family
Didn't Want to Return
"He left Pittsburgh on the last train
Sunday night, after remarking that he
did not wish to return" said Craig.
His absence from Benwood over the
weekend was borne out by Herron's
landlady, who said he returned to his
room late Sunday night. He had left
all jewelry and credentials with his
brother-in-law.
Craig showed several Of these ere.
dentials to Intelligencer reporters.
