1t appeared from the evidence that
Myles Henderson, a character from
Crosby, who is known to be crony
of Attorney Braate1len of that city,
alleges that the car now in the pos
session of Harry Huffman of Dooley,
belonged to him and was stolen from
his place by Harry Huffman between
the hours of seven and eleven on the
night of May II, 1925. Instead of
making complaint in the regular way
in the district in which the accused re-
sides, Mr.. Braatelien had Governor
Sorlie request the governor eff Mon
tana to extradite Huffman from his
home state into North Dakota to be
tried. Contrary to all American and
English law Huffman was not served
with any complaint and but for an
accident would not have known about
the conspiracy to eXtradite him to
North Dakota.

THREE ROBBEREES OCCUR
in OAKLAND in FEW DAYS
Two Stores Burglarized And An
Office RObbed-Seed Corn
Stolen from Cannery

Sunday night the store room of A.
D. Naylor on Liberty street was en-
tered through a rear door after the
burglars had forced the lock, the safe
which had been left unlocked searched
and other places where valuables
were likely to be found ransacked,
but nothing so far as can be learned
was carried away.
Tuesday night the hardware store
Of C. N. McIntire was visited by ap-
parently the same man or party of
men. AT that place entrance to the
store room was effected by forcing a
rear window. A cash register, in
which a sum. estimated at $50 in cur
rency and silver, was opened and the
contents carried away. Nothing else
was disturbed in the store room so far
as could be ascertained yesterday
morning by the proprietor.
Some time between Saturday even
ing and Monday the consulting room
in Dr. Henry McComas' office building
was entered by a sneak thief and a
valuable pair of field glasses enclosed
in leathern case was stolen.
The plant of the Mount Airy Can
ming Company, located at Loeb Lynn
Heights, was also broken into Tues
day night and four barrels of seed
corn was carried off.
In no case is there a clue to the
identity of the guilty party or parties
although State Officer VIM. D. Cas-
teel had his bloodhounds on a sup
posed trail early yesterday morning
from the McIntire building, nothing
in the way of clue resulted.
1t is generally believed by the off
Gals hat the series of robberies were
committed by local people.

Bow Scout News,

The Boy Scouts is such a wonder
full organization and is doing such
noble service among the boys of the
world that columns in the daily and
cosmopolitan press are being devoted
to exploiting the activities of the hun
dreds of troops located in almost ev-
cry hamlet and town.
Oakland is not to be outdone in re-
gard to a troop Of Scouts which has
as its Scoutmaster Rev. A. J. Torrey,
rector Of st. Matthew's P. E. church,
who has furnished The Republican a
few news notes for publication, as fol-
lows:
All but four Scouts are now second
class and these four will be within
the next few weeks.
The troop went on a hike last Sat-
urday to Coddington's Rifles. Tests
in fire making, tracking, cooking and
swimming were passed by Scout Ed
win Hamill; also frst-class cooking
was passed by Robert Stanton. AS
soon as weather conditions permit,
overnight hikes will take place and
then real fun begins.
We are to have several new boys
for the troop next Friady night. Any
boy over twelve who wants to join the
troop will be given an opportunity to
do so during the month of May. After
that no new boys will be taken in I'M
til September list:
Spread the good news that the X.
of P. lodge of Oakland has donated
the sum of $50 toward the Troop sum-
mer camp fund. May their tribe in
crease.
Rev. A. J. Torrey, the Scoutmaster,
took nine Scouts over to Friendsville
last Wednesday and succeeded in re-
organizing the troop there with twen-
ty-two members. They are to be the
guests of the Oakland Troop on Fri
day, June 9Th, at the Scout rooms.
The Scout Mothers Auxiliary met
last Friday and made plans for the
summer camp and for a big banquet
soon to be given all scouts who be-
come First Glass by the time school
closes.
1t goes without saying that the
Oakland Troop is a living, going con-
Germ. The best is not too good for
your boys.

The Value of Dairy Improve.
ment or Cow Testing Asso-
Citations.

To the Editor of The Republican.
According to the Census of 1920,
the dairy cows of Garrett county pro-
duced a yearly average a 2S7 gallons
of milk. Other dairy counties in the
State have an average of $50 gallons,
or more. This raises the question,
"What must be done in Garrett coun-
ty to improve our dairy needs?" The
answer is, "Breed intelligently, feed
inelligently and weed intelligently."
When these three factors are
brought together by means Of COW
testing associations the production
end is bound to increase. Many dairy
men do not understand what kind of
information is necessary to deter
mine the true productive value of a
dairy COW. The dairyman must know:
First, the total amount of milk pro-
duced during the entire milking peri
cd; second, the amount of butterfat
contained in the milk; third, the ma
ture and amount of food used by the
cow during the period.
A cow testing association is an or
ganization of farmers for the purpose
of securing the services Of a compe-
tent man, called the tester, to keep
production and feed records on the in
dividual cows in the herds, to help
in the managerial problems and to
give all possible assistance in the I'M
provement of thin dairy herds. An
association of 25 or 26 herds with a
total of 400 to 600 cows makes the
best sized organization, but an asso-
citation can be organized with fewer
herds and a much less number of
COWS.
The tester spends one day each
month on each members farm. He
weighs and takes sample of milk
from each COW, both evening and
morning. The feed for each cow in the
herd, including dry cows, is either
weighed or estimated. The milk is
tested for butterfat. He then figures
profit and loss for individuals and for
the herd.
The first association was organized
in Denmark in 1895. From there it
spread to Europe and then to the
United States. In 1923 there were 627
active associations. Wisconsin has
1853, which makes it the leading dairy
State.
The value of such an organization
in Garrett county could not be COM
puted. An investment of not over
$50 per year in this way would yield
over $3.50 in return. Watch for free
moving pictures, weighed in The
Balance" at Sunnyside and Grants

scored such a hit when presented by

church. The play will be presented
at the Maryland Theatre, tickets for

ing a splendid cast are Monica Straub
in the title role, and Francis McGeady
as the leading male actor. The full
chorus will be brought to Oakland to-
