Farmers Turn to Thorough
breds
breds

IT was not so many years ago In the dairy
industry that COW was O COW and . bun q
bull and little thought was given TO the ancestry
Of either. Exhaustive tests we're conducted by
Federal experts into the relationship between
higher breeding and milk production. BY care
full testing and. keeping Of records it was soon
demonstrated that pure bred and even partially
pure bred cattle were much heavier producers
and much more efficient than the old-time scrub
COW.
In campaign to better conditions the De-
partment of Agriculture experts stressed the
value Of having pure-bred bulls as sires of the
various herds. When higher milk yields fol-
lowed along with better bred cattle the farmers
were quick to see the advantage Of thorough
breds, and as result the number Of thorough
bred cows has increased rapidly. Statistics
gathered recently indicate that In the average
herd out Of every IS cows 121a are pure bred.
10 are grade, 2R cross bred and one . scrub.

"In be there" she said, and ran into the
house
A N hour later jefferson Gregg walked into
N the Victory Club. He looked about to make
sure he wasn't being seen by his former en-
ployer. Then he went to the desk. He took an
envelope from his pocket and gave 1t TO the
man. please take this to Mr.. George Lever

JeH stood for a moment as the attendant
hurried on with the envelope. He grinned,
almost sheepishly, and shock his head slowly.
The attendant was striding on toward George
Leverman.

He Lit cigarette abstractedly and chuckled

He thought of Marjorie. What would she think
OF him anyway when it was all over9 Would
she be glad for what he had done-or sorry7
He believed that she would be glad; but, after
all, you could never be sure.
And George Leverman? jeff wasn't going to
wait to see. He turned and made for the door,
just as the attendant handed the envelope to
Marjorie's husband

we can play-and love2"
ooh, jeff wouldn't it be wonderfully"
He put his arm about her. kissed her For
long time she was there In his arms.
JEFF thought now Of George Leverman. The
idiot. This was the sort of love that man might
have had.
"Tt's time for US to be getting back" said
JEFF presently. But before he started the car he
reached into his coat pocket and brough out an
envelope. He opened this and took out q
ticket. Here, Marjorie. I've already planned

carried bugles.
'Marthai" cried Mr.. Milfret. How long

replied Didn't you get my card?"

don't want junior to see his father in this

Silently we filed out of the house and into
the charitable darkness taking our bugles with
US. Now that it was all over, we felt rather
cheated. A real burglar wouldn't have mis-
understood our motives as Mrs. Mlfret had.
But IL q real burglar ever does invade our

"Glad?"
II don't know. JEFF. I'm trying to decide"
did my being here make a difference?"
"No. At least don't think So But you"
She stopped and moved over just little closer
to him.
"You were going to say something about me,
Marjorie"
II don't know how to say it. JEFF. But you
brought back all OF the old ideas Of romance
and gayety and youth. You are so-so-com-

Jen did some desperate thinking as he walked
into the ticket Office. Leverman was leaving
Marjorie. No doubt about that This fool who
had worked for years to make million dollars
TO please his wife was now letting his wife
believe that he didn't care losing her Sap!
And JEFF stood back, kept hands off, so that
this boob might be happy. This boob who didn't
know how to hold wife. Jeh had waited long
enough. It time for him to act And when
he reached the counter in the ticket office his
mind was made up. He knew just what he was
going TO do.
When he left Leverman at the Victory Club
Jeff drove rapidly toward Marjorie's home. "Of
course. I'm fool" he kept saying over and over
again. but life consists Of being fool much Of
the time"
He began to hum tune, q gay little love

In Mexico City. He was his way now to
make another beautiful lady happy
JEFF drove the car up to the front instead Of
TO TIE garage. Then he hurried up the steps and
opened the door. Marjorie stood I'm the hall.
She had heard the car come back. Perhaps she
was expecting Leverman to reIent. She saw
Jeff She seemed surprised
"Oht"
you expected him back2" asked JEFF
''No. I don't believe did" Marjorie was
being quite frank. Her face was solemn, hard
Which made her even more charming JEFF
thought. 1t always pleases man to see a
woman angry at rival
Maybe you feared he would come back"
suggested JEFF.
She didn't answer this.
Jef studied her face q moment Come with

THEY drove far out into the country beyond
