The advantages of artificial
breeding may be briefly stated as
follows:
lit provides the advantage of
a large herd to the smaller herd
owner in securing services OF out
standing Sires.
2-It offers a means of sharing
the risk of proving young bulls.
3--It offers larger number 0f
daughters when considering the
proof OF the sires transmitting
ability.
1T offers the use of better
sires at no increased cost.
Sit eliminates the danger oI
keeping bull on farms not equip
ped for handling bulls.
6-An extra cow can be kept il
place of Il bull.
Improved cattle in cOmmun
tiles will attract buyers who are
interested in better dairy cattle.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 9 - B The
St. Louis Cardinals, almost as
successful on tours as at home,
took off on their final .make-or-

circumstances strongly reminis-
cent of the hectic climaXes to the
National Leagues 1941 and 1912
pennant races.
Two games out in front of
Brooklyn and buoyed by the sur
prising effectiveness of recently
returned Highlander George Mum
ger, the Cardinals were at the
peak of their seasons league-lead-
ing performance at the plate and
winning more than their share OF
the one-run decisions.
The Red Birds headed into the
13-game journey including
three against Brooklyn - with a
record of 81 victories in their last
Is games, during which they have
hit at nearly a .209 clip or 20 points
above their seasons average.
Adding another note of conf
dence to the Red Birds on the
jaunt which opens with single
games at Philadelphia Tuesday
and Wednesday were figures show
ing their success on the road was
only slightly less than in the
friendly atmosphere of Sports
mans Park.
They have compiled a $3.50 win

victories and 26 losses and a rs
mark on the road with a 1920
record.
While they r unlikely to re-

,Lippy- Leo Durocher's Brooklyn
Dodgers will attempt to recapture
the league lead from the st. Louis
Cardinals.
Trailing the Redbirds by two
games, the Dodgers will play host
to the Cincinnati Reds in a two
game set before tangling with the
Cards in a three game series
which starts Thursday.
Boosting a $50 average at Flat
bush, the Dodgers are confident
that they will overhaul the Red
birds and cop the flag. Recent out
standing performances of their
hurting crew form one of the
principal reasons for the Brooks
optimism.
Winners of eight of their last

four of their tossers go the route
in their last four wins, a feat that
has been performed by Dodger
mound crew only once before this
season.
Rookie 1efthander Joe Hatten
and Fireballer Kirby Higbe, the
leagues leading hurler according
to won and lost records, are the
current hellwethers of the mound
staff.
Another factor that has sent
Dodger hopes soaring has been
the play of Pete Reiser who had
been severely handicapped
throughout the campaign With
various ailments.
Reiser the loops leading base
%stealer, has been running wild
and hitting in his prewar style
during the past week and taking up
the slack of the slump-ridden
Dixie Walker who carried the
team during the most of the flag
chase with his hitting.
