In hot weather. stock need ade-
quate ventilation. or even artificial
cooling. Few truckers bother. The
simple expedient of dehorning ami
mails before shipping would pre-
vent much of the bruising. but this
is all to seldom done. Add to
these crimes against livestock the
dropping Of animals from cruel
heights, in loading and unloading.
Talking Doesnt Help
lHE shipper sometimes tries to
cheat little by stuffing his stock
with food and water just before
sending them to market. thereby
gaining few extra dollars from
the added weight. But the practice
often results in acute indigestion
and even suffocation.
The big deterrent to inn
proved handling Of livestock
is that insurance usually COW
ers damages incurred i'm ship
ping. There is no immediate in
centive for the producer to hire
careful truckers. But insurance
rates would be lower if mortality
fell off. This is a hard fact to get
across to farmer and handler.
So far the only weapon avail
able to Livestock Conservation,
Inc, has been moral suasion. 1t

money spent to educate stock pro-
ducers and shippers over a decade

AMERICAS CRUELEST WASTE
Continued from, page sesen

Generally speaking, the rail-
roads strive to protect the ami
mails they haul. The Union Pacific
has gone to the extent Of pro-
viding special cars with roller
bearings. automatic brakes and
attachments to eliminate shaking
and jolting.
But no such rules can be applied
to the small trucker. When he
backs his trailer into farm lot
somewhere in Missouri or Texas,
there is no one to prevent him
from mercilessly clubbing or whip
ping stubborn cattle as he tries to
load them for market. Humane
society agents stand at the dock
sides in many stock depots, and
they have the power to arrest.
But they can't stand over every
independent handler and loader.
According to DR.. Pickard, the
worst crime is gambling on over
loaded vehicles, particularly those
Transporting mixed stock. As the
driver takes sharp turns or
bounces over deep ruts in the road,

are brutally crushed and some
times suffocated by the cattle and
hogs. Heavier beasts often fall and
are unable to get up. In the con-
fusion they can be seriously in
jured or trampled to death.
Calves Can't Survive
PICKARD is continually advocat-
ing partitions for trucks. But a
recent survey revealed that little
attention is being paid to these
warnings. Out of 100 vehicles

Frequently the loader, in an

common offenses. Sometimes

Throughout her long life she re-
manned quite independent" and
even insisted on picking out her
own Christmas cards last year.
One of her last acts was to
write a birthday card to little

Opposed Suffrage.
At one time a leading anti

every election since 1920.
Born in Marietta. Ohio, she

principal and college president.
On her 101st birthday last July
20, she quoted with ease the songs
she used to sing in 1860 as a
high school student in Lawrence,
Mass.
Mrs. Cleaveland considered Rob-
ert Frost to be Americas greatest
poet. Possibly her love and knowl-
edge of his works Stemmed partly
from her graduation from high
school with Will Frost. his father.
At any rate, Mrs. Cleaveland
was one of Frost's best publicity
agents. At the sight of a reporter
on her last birthdays she would
quote from his works.
In 1889, she was married to
Frank N. Cleaveland. an attorney
in Canton, N. Y, and she lived
there until his death in 1922.
Mrs. cleveland had been a

tory in Boston, she had taught

as a special member at St. Law
renee University.

years, where her daughter was on
the faculty of the State Teachers
College. She had been a Takoma
Park resident since l943.
Went Canoeing at SO.
During World War II, while in
her COS, she did more than 1900
hours of knitting-mostly sweat
ers for GIs-for the Red Cross
here.
Just two days before her 99th
birthday she went canoeing with
Mr.. and Mrs. Salisbury on the
c. & o. Canal. Their canoe-of
solid cedar-was one in which she
and Mr.. Cleavleand had used dur
ing their courtship.
She was a member of Erasmus
Perry Chapter. Daughter of the
American Revolution and Univer-
isalist National Memorial Church.
A slight woman, scarcely S feet
tall, she had never been able to
reach 100 pounds. At 80, it is said,
doctors told her she would never
live to be IS.
Her only survivor is her daugh-
ter.
A memorial service will be held
at 4 pm. Sunday at the Univer-
saliSt Church, 1910 Sixteenth
