HANGOVERS
Bv LITTLE HEISKELL

BY IL EE 7El0NGE-
Its mighty early to begin
taIkinu about Gubernatorial can
didates, but few days ago a
group of folks down Prince
. Georges County way banded
themselves together for the pur-
pose of booming Congressman
Lansdale C. Sasscer for trip
to Annapolis. And from the
columns of David Winebrenner's
newsy newspaper (Which Incl
dentalIy, he sends to me gratIs)
further learn that plans are
under way to stage benefit
cruise on "Thursday, May TO-"
the proceeds from which will be
used as a campaign nest egg for
the '42 fight. Further, all coun-
ty officials and political leaders
of Prince Georges County are
expected to help weight down
the boat.
AS | sit here and lamp the
calendar "a 1889 job something
tells me that May 20 became
history a couple of months ago.
Either that or I'm a Rip Van
Wrinkle. But if the date is cor
rect, then Dave and his crew
must show more speed in get
ting political chatter on the
festive board while its hot! And
if this cruise is likewise history,
we'll, LansdaIe didn't do SO good
in making the headlines in this
neck OF the State.
Its "a most gracious gesture
for citizens of ones home coun-
ty to 90 to bat for native son.
And before the next three years
will have been turned over to
Father Time suppose a heap
of native sons will experience
the same thing. It's an old, old
custom and dates back to the
days of erandpap.
Lansdale is a mighty fine fell
low, and the odds are about ten
to one in his favor that he'll
make swell Congressman. But
it must and will be remem-
bered that Lansdale didn't burn
up the highways in his last go
at the Governorship. OF course,
he had two strong candidates in
there swinging along with him
but even so, he oughta done bet
ter. The reason, in part, was
that he was a stranger in many
sections of the Free State, in
Guiding Western Maryland.
That being correct, I'd like to

Poor COWs Make Hits
In Ohio Bush Leagues

Balls that go for hits in the minor
leagues would be just pain outs in
the big leagues, is the explanation
that C. L. Blackman gives to dairy
men who ask him why members of
dairy herd improvement associations
never stop culling COWS out of their
herds.
Mr.. Blackman points out that the
cow which gets by in moderately
good herd may have the lowest bat
ting average on the record sheet in
better herd. AS the herd produc-
tion averages go up, the cows at the
bottom are sold to dairymen who en-
joy dairying at a small profit or to
the butcher who is interested only
in meat.
Every time the poorest producer
in a herd is taken out, the chance
for profit on the remaining cows is
increased. Lots of good Ohio cows
spend their lives paying the board
bills of their stable mates. Some
times there are enough good cows
in the herd to pay the expenses of
the boarders, but often the herd
owner must pay the bills out of
money by other farm enterprises.
Ohio dairy herd association mem
bers sold 247 cows for beef and lab
for dairy purposes during April. The
members can sell their cows adj
vantageously because they are GER
tain of the animals worth, and the
buyer does not have to purchase
blindfolded because the cows ability
is on record and can be examined to
find her true value as milk
AS requirements for cows sold,
dairymen in the associations bought
Al purebreds and 81 grades. The
trend toward better future herd
averages is indicated by the large
number of purebred cows and also
by the purchase of II purebred bulls
during the month.
The Importance of herd improve
ment association records becomes ap-
parent when dairymen want to de-
termine the value of herd sires.
Checking the records of a group of
| daughters against the records of
their dams is the only practical way
of finding how much the sire influ-
enced the daughters productive
ability.
The last months report for the
5S associations in the state shows
five proven sires. One of these
animals had IL daughters whose
records have been compared with
those of their dams. The daughters
production exceeds their dams by an
average of 55 pounds of butterfat a
year, and the dams had average of
335 pounds of butterfat. The
daughters also produced ], ,447 pounds
more of milk per year than their
dams.
