BETTER STOCK FOR
DAIRY DEMANDED

The increasing demand for better
dairy cattle has placed a large pre-
MUM on animals having proved pro-
ductive capacity and known ancestry.
Consequently, breeders are getting
over twice as much for stock that has
been tested under the advanced regis
try of production as for those that
have not.
A study Of 81 Holstein-F riesian cat
tie sales held throughout the United
States during 1925 shows that the av-
erage price for advanced registry fe-
males with yearly records was $444.
This was $273 more than the average
price of animals without advanced
registry records and out Of untested
dams.
In 88 auction sales of pure-bred
Guernseys the contrast was equally
striking. Cows having both advanced
registry records and advanced regis
try dams averaged 1923; those with
registered dams but no official rec
ords on themselves averaged 1886,
and those without tested dams, but
with official advanced registry records,
$251.
Commenting on this, w. r. Robbers,
superintendent of the advanced regis
try testing for the state of New Jer-
sey, says: "The results of these large
auction sales In various states give
an accurate measure of the monetary
value of knowing and being able to
prove to prospective buyers the an
cestry and milk producing ability OF
an animal. The buyers at the auc-
lions throughout the country were
ready to pay premium OF S273 on
Holsteins with official records showing
their own and their dams milking ca
pacity. With Guernseys similar rec
ords were worth $271."

One High Producing Cow
Good as Seven Poor Ones

One COW that produces 400 pounds
Of butter fat in year will net the
owner as much profit as seven cows
that produce $50 pounds of butter fat,
according to records kept by five Paul
ding county dairymen during 1926, and
summarized by Ivan McKellip, dairy
specialist of Ohio State university.
These records show that a cow
that produces less than 200 pounds Of
butter fat in year Is not paying ex-
penses. while a cow that produces 400
pounds Is netting the owner nearly
500 above all costs including labor.
These figures show" stated Mr..
McKellip, shat herd of ten cows
that averages 400 pounds of butter fat
in year, will pay for their feed, pay
all other miscellaneous expenses, pay
a wage for the labor expended on
them, and still slip nearly $1,000 into
the pocket Of the owner, while herd
OF ten cows producing an average Of
$50 pounds Of butter fat in year will
require the payment by the owner Of
over $500 for the privilege of keeping
them"

Pure Water One Element
That Insures Best Milk

Much sport has been had about the
dafryman adding water to milk, but
nevertheless it is a fact that good
dairymen do add water to their milk
during the manufacturing process
not afterwards at the pump.
Pure water Is one of the elements
that insure pure milk. Milk is fully
81 per cent water. A large cow drink
ing heavily daily because she produces
heavily will take as much as 100
pounds, or nearly 10 gallons of water
In a day.
Closely stabbed cows should have
water at least twice a day and 1t Is
always simpler and better to supply
the water In drinking cups at the
stanchions. The matter of tempera-
ture Of the water is important. 1t Is
bad practice to oblige cattle to con-
sumo icy cold water. The water
should be at least 20 degrees above
freezing point In order to avoid too
sudden shocks to the animals system.

Dairy Cows Will Thrive
if Fed COttonseed Meal

While most experiments indicate
that linseed oil meal is slightly superb
or to cottonseed meal for beef cattle
1t seems that there is little difference
for dairy cows. In fact, an Indiana
experiment indicates that choice cot
tonseed meal has slight advantage
over linseed oil meal for milk cows.
Do not feed more than two pounds
per cow daily. In the South they have
fed as much as four pounds without
injurious results. Large quantities of
cottonseed meal In the ration, how
ever, predispose to udder trouble. II
Is much safer to feed large quantities
Of cottonseed meal when there Is
silage in the ration than when there
Is no succulence.

Birth Weight of Calves

There Is considerable difference In
the birth weight Of calves of different
breeds. This factor is of Importance
when calves are raised for veal but
veal calves are side line and not
the most important function of dairy
cows. According to Eckles, the fol-
lowing weights Of calves represent
about an average for the breed: Jer-
sey, 30 pounds; Guernsey, II pounds;
Ayrshire, II pounds; Holstein, 90
pounds; Brown Swiss, 100 pounds, and
Dairy Shorthorn. 70 pounds

MINNESOTA OFFERS MUCH TO
INTEREST AND DELIGHT TOURISTS

forests and shimmering lakes, wind
ing streams or rushing waters with
rocky rapids and beautiful, noisy wa
ter falls; would you choose to visit
the peaceful rural country where the
plowman wends his homeward way
or the busy marts Of industry where
trade and commerce fill the busy hours
OF day, and night is the time of rev.
elry; or would you seek the uninter-
rupted wilds Of nature where the birds
and beasts are in the forests and fish
abound in the waters. Whatever your
choice Minnesota can satisfy your de-
sire.
Minnesota has state and national
parks which altogether contain more
than 100000 acres af land. They are
kept in their wild condition as far as
possible. They abound in most beau.
tiful and picturesque places. The wood
land has great variety of trees and
flowers. It's wild life is abundant and
in the northern part of the State may
be found large numbers of deer and
moose and other large and small
game.
10000 SiIvery Lakes
Minnesota's boast of Ten Thousand
Lakes is but modest claim. She has
that number and many more. These
vary in size. Each is a gem in itself
adding much to its surroundings, and
usually its depths are filled with many
varieties of the finest game fish. In
parts of the State these lakes are
found unexpectedly here and there as
rare jewel, while in other sections
one lake is hardly reached before an
other and yet another comes into
view.
Mirrored waters of the lakes are
not alone in identifying the landscape;
rivers and streams connect lakes and
divide meadows. They water the
lands; they add beauty and in the earl
Ter days were the carrier of many a
boat. The great Mississippi, the faith
er of waters, is among them and finds
its beginning among the lakes of the
north; the Minnesota flows from west
to east winding its way through prai-
rie and woodland, sometimes playing
in one of the most beautiful park Sec
lions any state could discover; the
ST. Croix has formed in its play with
nature tn, phenomenal "Dalles" with
their curious formations of rocks and
caverns, and Rainy River drops over
precipice after precipice letting it's
waters come down from these high
lodges as water falls of the most ex-
quisite beauty. But these are only a
few of the larger streams and there
are many just as beautiful although
perhaps not quite as large, in the east,
the west, the south, the north.
These are natural advantages and
to them man has added hundreds OF
summer hotels and unique cottage,
camps and outing resorts increasing
in size as demand arises and summer
residents increase. Then Minnesota
has builded a great system of unex-
celled highways, extending to all parts
of the state, and making the Indian
pipestone quarries of the southwest
ern prairie equally accessible to the
tourist with the far-famed North Shore
Drive along the rock bound coast Of
Lake Superior and bringing the Red
River of the North and Rush River Of
the southeast within easy driving dis
lance of the Twin Cities.

GROW GLUM

NEW YORK Oct. Ruth Sny-

death house at Sing Sing, are glum.
Prison employees said today that the
pair, in separate parts of the build
ing. had even lost their appetites
following the action of the Albany
court of appeals In calling for argu
ments for a new trial much sooner
than had been expected.
II their appeals are refused, this
move on the part of the court will
deprive them of days and weeks of
life. which is constantly becoming
more precious to them.
Mrs. Snyder's appeal is expected
to reach the court first on October
"a. The defendants had not ex.
pected their cases to be reached be.
fore late in December. because the
printed record of their trial was
three months late in preparation.
Attorneys for both expressed great
interest in a case called before the
court of appeals. in which Charles
Doran, of Albany. convicted of first
degree murder. was appealing from
the conviction on the grounds that
he was tried at the same time as
an accomplice who was acquitted
on the same evidence.

GIVE Us BEER
LABOR 'SPLEA
BY International News Service


LOS ANGELES, Oct. 12.-The
American laboring man wants his
beer. This is the sentiment, at
least, of the American Federation
of Labor convention which today
was on record as favoring modifi-
cation of the Volstead act 80 as
to permit the manufacture and sale
''of wholesome beer"
A chorus of lusty "ayes" formed
a wet majority to drown a scatter
ing of dissenting voters when organ
lied labor reaffirmed its stand on
the prohibition question in a tu-
multuous scene near the close of
the session.
Efforts on the part of Arizona
and California delegates to have the
Federation sponsor United States ap-
plication OF the quota law to Mex
lean immigration met with defeat
when the convention voted 1876 to
80 for the adoption of the execu.
tive committees recommendation
that Mexico be permitted to re-
strict its immigration into this
country.
The convention also went on rec.
ord as favoring:
1. Repeal or amendment Of the
Sherman antitrust law, the Clayton
Act and other antitrust laws
which are being used to prevent
workers from combining for pur.
poses of mutual aid"
2. Limitation of the Jurisdiction of
courts Of equity in the misuse" of

EXPERT URGES
FALL REPAIRS

The vacation and touring season
is ended and all that, remains are
memories Of the good times enjoyed.
There is one thing. however, that
should not be forgotten and that is
the good automobile that made the
good times possible. A little atten-
tion at this season will insure a con-
tinuance of automobile satisfaction
during the coming winter.
A list of suggestions for prepar-
ing the automobile for the cold
weather season following the sum-
mer driving period has been pre-
pared by T. H. Stambaugh. general
service manager of Oldsmobile.
Mr.. Stambaugh classes these sug-
gestions under preventative main
tenance," inasmuch as the items
tend to prevent unnecessary main
tenance charges.
During the past six months"
says Mr.. Stambaugh, privately
owned automobiles. practically with
out exception, have Travelled long
and fast over all types of roads and
under varying conditions. Preventa-
tive maintenance attention to the
car at this time will result in longer
life and continued satisfactory per-
formance in the future.
I'VE recomme- d that the follow
ing suggestions be carried out:
Have the water in your cooling
system replaced with good anti
freeze solution as soon as climatic
conditions requires it's use.
Have the oil in the crankcase
changed to winter grade.
Lubricants in axle and trans
mission should be diluted or changed
to cold weather grades.
Body bolts and nuts should be
tightened.
THE chassis should be given thor
ough fabrication.
Have generator checked for
proper winter charging rate.
"Carburetor adjusted to prevent
excessive use of choke.
Distributor points should be
checked for proper contact.
"See that the water in the bat.
terv is at the proper level.
Lights should be checked for
proper focus.
Have front wheels checked for
proper alignment to prevent tire
wear.
Brakes should be inspected for
adjustment or refining.
Touch up exposed screw heads
and nuts with paint to prevent rust
unless these are protected by cad
MUM plating such as is now used
on Oldsmobiles.
"Following these preventative
measures will amply repay the car
owner in increased driving salts

FALCON KNIGHT
WINS PRAISE

The successful performance Of
the Falcon.Knight Six on various
dirt race tracks OF the country
during the past summer in stock
car races has won for this car a
conspicuous place in the Ameri-
can motor car field. Unheard Of
before on the race tracks, the
Falcon-Knight Six. both the road
ster and the gray ghost speedster
models, have recently made notable
records for sustained speed, power,
stamina and smoothness. The en-
tries in these races included cars
in the Falcon price class as well
as higher priced cars.
This conspicuous demonstration
of possibilities of the Knight en-
gined car as a leading contender
for honors in stock car races has
resulted in the placing of a num-
ber of orders with the Falcon
Motors Corporation for delivery ef
Falcon knight chassis to well-known
dirt track drivers. These orders
were placed following the speed
and stamina demonstrations of the
Falcon-Knight, and officials of the
company declare that during the
coming year this popular Knight
engined car will be seen in all the
leading stock car races of the coun-
try.
The first public appearance of a
Falcon-Knight car on a race track
was at the State Fair Grounds, Mil
waukee. In this race. for strictly
stock cars, the Falcon-Knight main
tanned a speed of better than a mile
a minute for the entire 25 miles and
was declared winner against a field
of IL cars representing makes in all
price ranges. In this race the Fal-
con-knight got away in the lead and
never was headed.
Falcon-Knight officials declare
that the outstanding performance of
the Falcon knight in this and other
stock car races follows closely upon
the remarkable performance of a
knight engined Voisin racing car
in France. The Voisin broke two
world records. maintaining an aver.
age speed of 1884 miles an hour to
win the 10O-mile event.
The performance of the Knight
engined cars on the race tracks and
the high standard set by the Fal-
con-Knight models in the hands of
hundreds of owners, is cited by
officials of the Falcon Motors Cor
poration as evidence of the inbuilt
speed, power stamina and efficiency
of this type of power plant.
