Montgomery County Dairymen Get
Facts On "Old BOssy's" Worth
Sixteen Milk Producers Find Out About Their
Herds Through Scientific Tests HI. III. Carter
Leads Association

Keeping tab on some 1000 cows
in Montgomery and Frederick
counties seems to be the ambition
and accomplishment of Bruce E.
Crum. Mr.. Crum, born and reared
in Frederick county, likes facts and
figures, especially if they deal with
cows. For Is years he has been
studying from actual experience
how much it costs to produce one
gallon of milk, how much cream is
in the milk and whether or not the
cow producing it is an asset or a
liability. Of course Mr.. Crum has
the cooperation Of the dairymen in
this one-man fact-finding investi-
cation and they gladly pay him for
doing it too. There are rigid rules
and regulations under which Mr..
Crum works and he has trained
two assistants to help him.
Sixteen Montgomery County
dairymen are using his figures to
advantage. If Bossy doesn't pro-
duce a profit over what she eats,
Mr.. Crum tells them about it and
nine chances out of ten Bossy gets
retired. He says Montgomery
county dairymen own excellent
high producing cows. He should
know - he tests their milk for
butterfat content at a small cost
and thinks every dairyman should
know what his herd is doing. The
following results list the five high
est testing herds and individual
cows for the past month in Mr..
Crum's cow testing association.

MORE vET0ES ARE
 SUSTAINED
Sm all Esiafes, Judgment Debtor, Deposition Bills
 Are Disdpproved

Three more bills passed by the Legislature were vetoed by Gov. Ernest Gruening yesterday after noon and this morning and all three vetoes were sustained by the Legislature, though one came with in few votes of being overridden.
 On. Senator O. D. Cochran's bill to permit private sale by U. S. Commissioner of real property valued at less than $1 800 in de- cedents' estates, the Senate voted seven to one to pass the bill not withstanding the veto, but the House voted only nine to seven to pass the bill over the veto. A two-thirds vote in both houses is necessary to override a veto.
 The Governor explained he ve- toed the bill because it would re- move safeguard which is neces- sary to protect the interests of nonresident heirs and divisees and thus permit fraud and collision" "
 "Deadbeat" Bill
 Only three votes in the House, those of Reps. James V. Davis, Harvey Smith and Leo Rogge, were cast to override a veto OF a bill which would have raised the ex- emption of a judgment debtor from Sl00 to $50 per month. The Gov ernor said in his veto message the present $l00 exemption is ample. if not indeed excessive and that the bill would assist deadbeats" ]" He quoted number of messages he had received from merchants opposing the bill and concluded the measure would lend aid and comfort to those who are trying to escape paying their just debts.
 The Senate voted five to three to override the veto on this bill.
 The third bill vetoed was one by Rep Jesse Lander to permit depo- sitions on behalf of the defense to be taken outside the Territory in criminal cases. The vote to pass this bill notwithstanding the veto was one to Is, with only Lander voting to override and he explain ing that his interest in the meas ure was only academic
 The Governor said in his veto message on this bill that it would operate only for the benefit of the accused and that our criminal pro- cedure already has undue solici- tude for the accused" and that it often protects the guilty by facili- tating escape from conviction so frequently that our crime record is national disgrace.'

WASHINGTON, March 26. = The statement that Passage Bay has been grossly misrepresented' as the site for the proposed new terminus of the Alaska Railroad was today pre- sented to the Senate Appropriations Committee by Alaska Delegate An thony J. Dimond. The Committee is considering the first Deficiency ap- propriation bill designed to appro- priate $5,300,0OO for changing the terminus from Seward to Passage Bay.
 Delegate Dimond presented to the committee . telegram from c. ". Dahl, Seward city councilman and hotel owner. Dahl, in his telegram, said previous surveys of the Army and Navy showed there is no anchor age in the bay, also mo to1DSite no soil, no back country, no roads, no inhabitants and the climate is bad
 Delegate Dimond urged that if the Senate Appropriation approved of the change already okayed by the House, a provision be included
 m the measure to reimburse the in habitants of Seward, who would he left without any business. Delegate Dimond told the House last Friday it would require two years to complete the new road and in the meantime there is danger of ,abotage to the present line.
