Probably no better picture has
been afforded of Serge Koussevitzky's
conducting than a comment by
Philip Hale of the Boston Herald
upon a recent concert of the Boston
symphony orchestra in Boston.
Referring to the orchestra's rendi-
ton of a Brahms symphony Mr..
Hale speaks of an occasion when he
heard Brahms himself conduct the
number, and when the performance
Koussevitzky's direction of the same
number, he says, was refreshing and
stimulating.
1T was pleasure to hear the
opening, fiery measures Numbered
forth" he says "for in this symphony
Brahms storms and RACES as well as
sings. The purely Lyric passages
were treated lovingly and the transit
tions from force to tenderness wers
shrewdly managed. Mr.. Koussevit-
Zky believes in giving the players
freedom of expression in romantic
ally lyrical measures; liberties in
tempo. breathing (as if they were
singing). punctuation of phrases"
Such high praise from one of the
most noted musical critics in the
country cannot but mean that Port
land and Maine will have an emo
tional musical experience when
koussevitzky and the players of the
Boston Symphony come to Portland
for concert March 25. The name
of the brilliant conductor and tales
of his prowess with the baton are on
everyone's lips. and from one corner
of Maine to another there is the
keenest interest in the forthcoming
concert,

| have often heard it said that the
Prohibition law is costing the Tax
Payers a lot Of money. But let us
lock at the State Prohibition Com
missions report. 1t shows that for
the years 1920-21-2 1928, there was
collected in excess of all expenses,
$780, 66.15. This amount was
paid into the State Treasury. Be-
sides this amount the counties,
towns, and cities collected large
amounts of fines. SO you see the
taxpayers are not called upon for
any money for the upkeep of the
Prohibition Department.
The State Treasury Agent gets
State appropriation of $4,000 per
year and collects over $4,000 a year.
SO this department is a paying pro-
position.
The Oil inspection department is
also making money for the state. So

partments that are making money
for the State.

PIERCE COUNTY DAIRY
CATTLE SALES EXCHANGE
WAS ORGANIZED LAST WEEK
Ellsworth Record)

Another cooperative movement by
farmers was gotten under way there
at the Court House Tuesday evening
when temporary organization for
the Pierce Inter-county Dairy Ex-
change was formed Twenty-Five re-
preventative farmers from all parts
of the county were present.
The plan of the organization is the
cooperative buying, selling and adj
vertising of pure bred and high grade
dairy cattle for breeding purposes.
1t is a non-stock and non-proit Or
ganization conforming with the
Wisconsin cooperative law, the pri-
mary purpose of which is to get bet
ter producing cows on the farms of
this county.
A similar exchange has been in
operation in st. Croix county for sew.
eral months. John Chapman. Jr.,
owner of the highest producing herd
in st. Croix county last year, and an
officer in the St. CroiX county ex-
changed, explained the workings of
the organization. J. E. Murphy,
owner of the Minneapolis Tribune
and who operates dairy farm near
Hammond, also spoke on the work
and results of an organization of this
kind.
J. w. Branson of Minneapolis, who
has organized several cooperative
creameries in Minnesota, was also
present and to him was given the
authority to go ahead and perfect the
exchange.
Chas. Fedderly, Lester Batho,
George Wild, Paul Bjerking and.
Walter Leonard, all successful dairy
men, were elected as a board of di-
rectors. These directors will meet
later and with Mr.. Branson will make
a membership drive. 1t is hoped to
interest several hundred Pierce coun-
ty farmers in the movement. The
only fee is nominal sum to be used
in the expense Of organizing.
Sale lists of cattle will be adver-
tised in mediums having wide circula-
ton where there is demand for
such cattle. Those listing cattle viii
pay a small percentage on sales of
such cattle. Bull clubs will be form
ed thereby getting in better and
higher priced animals.
A plan was discussed whereby
business men in the various towns of
the county would finance good ami
mails for boys and girls of the coun-
ty
Lots of enthusiasm was shown by
those present and the venture will
undoubtedly prove to be a means Of
getting Pierce county on the dairy
map. 1t has been thought just such
organizations as this that Barron
and Waukesha counties are enjoying
such dairy prestige.
