.SNOWDEN HA|NES
DEMANDS SHOWDOWN
Former Cashier Charges He Was
Frozen Out of Enterprise Company

Alleged manipulations of the Me.
chanics National Bank of Burlington
by which | Snowden Haines, former
cashier of the institution, is said tc
have been deprived of property
worth many thousands of dollars, are
detailed in suit which has been filed
in the Chancery Court by Haines
who asks that the bank be forced tc
give an accounting of insurance Lol.
icies amounting to $4,000 and OF
500 shares of stock which he de.
posted in 1916 to cover certain notes
Haines charges that the bank con.
verted his insurance policies to its
own use, and he further alleges
that he was frozen out" of the En-.
terpnse Company, publishers of the
Burlington Daily Enterprise, through
the activity of bank officials.
In a lengthy bill of complaint
Haines recited that he resigned as
cashier of the bank in 1916, after
having held the office from 1905. Al
the time of his resignation, he said
the bank held his notes, as well as
certain other paper which the bank
claimed had been accepted and dis.
counted without the knowledge OF
consent of the board of directors, to
the amount of $4,000. The institu-
ton, he said, having asked him te
secure endorsers of his obligations
satisfactory to the bank, he paid
$1,000 cash on the debt, gave salts
factory notes for $4,000 and, fur
thermore, deposited with the bank
four insurance policies totalling $25,
900. There were also turned over to
the bank, he alleged, 500 shares OF
stock in the Enterprise Company
which was the entire issue of the
corporation.
Haines asks that the bank be de-
creed as holding his policies and the
stock merely as a trustee and that
an accounting be made to him.
The Enterprise Company has taker
exception to the statement by Haines
that the Enterprise Company is none
other than the bank. 1t stands ready
to prove that the newspaper and jot
plant on which the bank held mort.
gage came into the company's pos
session through sheriff's sale and moi
one share of the company is owned
by the bank.

DOG CRABS MANS THROAT
WITHOUT INJURINC HIN
Peter The Great Stars In 1.-THE
Silent Accuser.'

The absurdity of claims that ami
mails in motion pictures are beaten
and abused in order to get them to
perform is pointed out by Edward
Faust, the owner and trainor of
Peter the Great, the famous German
police dog appearing in the Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer production, 1.-The
Silent Accuser," which comes to the
Bever-Lee Theatre on Wednesday
next.
Faust Illustrated his point by strik-
ing at the dog with club. The
dog did not cringe, or move.
IF / had beaten that dog in train
ing him he would have eringed when
struck at him." he said. "Peter
has never been struck with a club,
and has not even learned to fear it."
Faust also points out that the dog
would have killed him long ago if
he had abused it, for one of Peters
tricks is to leap at his trainers
throat. Faust also lays flat on the
ground, and permits the dog to
fasten his teeth in his throat. The
dog has been trained to do this with
out leaving even mark.
Peter has proved the value of the
right kind of training by his work
in "The Silent Accuser," which Ches-
ter M Franklin directed, and adapt
ed to the screen with the assistance
of Frank O'Connor from Jack Boyle's
story. Eleanor Boardman, Raymond
Mckee and Earle Metcalfe head the
cast.

DAIRYING SAVES
IDAHO FARMERS

jerome county Idaho) farmers, not
discouraged by the failure of crops
because of a water shortage last year,
turned their attention to diversified
farming. Many went into the dairy
business, says the Idaho Statesman
of January 18th. Others took up
sheep raising and still others started
poultry farms.
Agricultural leaders of the state
are stressing dairying. They point
out that Wisconsin farmers a pay
$25 a ton for hay and yet make big
money. In Idaho the hay can be
grown but not shipped to outside
points with any margin of profit.
One good cow, they say, will eat her
own weight, LOCO pounds, each month.
With hay selling at $40 that places
her feeding cost for r~oughage at IS.
A good dairy cow will make a profit
of from $40 to SIS above all feed
costs, dailymen claim. Still higher
profits may be expected from the bet
ter class Of cows in Idaho.
The high COW in the Jerome county
COW testing association last year was
a s~ix-year-old Hclstein whose produc-
ton was 16,411 pounds milk and 1872
pounds butterfat. During that peri
cd she was fed II, 300 pounds alfalfa,
$3.50 pounds ground apd rolled barley
and 1880 pounds of bran, plus a lit
tie pasture for three mcnths. The
value of her product is fixed at
$326.15 while her cost for feed was
1928 leaving a net profit of S233.97,
nearly $50 a month. According to a
statistical report of the COW testing
association of which the owner Of this
cow was a member, each cow returned
1915 for every dollar expended on
her.
