Comdr. Lansdowne explained that

We're lacking at Scott Field and Min

the flight be delayed until September,
when the stormy season would be
over and unframed ground crews

flight accordingly was postponed.

in taking up this route consideration

Acceded to Requests.
Millions Of people wanted to sec

requests from governors, mayors,
chambers OF commerce, congressman
and others. We tried to let as many
of them SEE the ship as the itinerary
would permit" Admiral Eberle as
serted.
The primary purpose Of the flight.
as finally planned for the Shenandoah,
he insisted. was TO perform a naval
misSion-the training f her crew to
fly overland, testing her qualities
under various weather conditions and
practicing operation.
Mr.. Reid endeaI ored to have the
witness say that the Shenandoah was
on a commercial mission, as the Los
Angeles would have been, and was
engaged on no military enterprise
when she was wrecked in an Ohio line

his contention that she was sent on
a naval duty.

PURE BRED RAM A MONEY
MAKER

A striking example of the infiu
ence of pure bred rams in breedins
good lambs was brought out by al
experiment conducted some time age
by the Missouri Experiment Station
at Columbia.
Breeding and feeding trials with
two lots of ewes at the Missouri Elk
pertinent Station have shown that
lambs from pure bred ram grow
and fatten much faster and sell at
much higher price per pound than
lambs from a scrub ram and exact
ly similar ewes.
The average total gain from the
lambs sired by the better ram was
z.54 pounds more at 8 months of
age than the average total gain of
the lambs sired by the inferior ram
at months of age. The average
daily gain of the better lambs was
zo.6 per cent greater than the lot
OF lambs sired by the inferior ram.
The feed eaten per 100 pounds
gain by the lot of lambs sired by
the inferior ram was SO per cent
more than that eaten by the lambs
sired by the superior ram. The
grain eaten per 100 pounds gain was
SS.7S pounds for the former lot and
only 52.S1 pounds for the latter.
AT three months of age the
lambs sired by the ram of mutton
type were 9.39 pounds heavier and
made total gain of S.43 pounds
greater than the lambs sired by the
inferior ram. The lambs from the
scrub sire required 20 per cent more
grain per loo pounds gain than did
the other lot.
Lambs sired by the good ram sold
Tor s2.s5 per 100 pounds more than
those sired by. the inferior ram.
The lambs from the good sire
were thicker fleshed, smoother,
broader in back and lighter in the
pelts than those from the scrub
The scrub ram is the most expen-
sive ram that money can buy. The
average farmer is not wealthy
enough to buy scrub. A pure bred
will be far cheaper in the end.
