Running Bull With
Herd, Poor Dairying

Eighteen percent of over 100
farms visited in the Delaware
Greener Pastures Program this
spring had their herd sire running
with the herd. A recent study of
the University of Delaware indi-
Gates that the over all percentage
is probably four times as great.
This is too high a percentage in
this day and age when artificial
breeding is available to every
dairyman in the state" points out
Delmar J. Young, extension dairy
man of the University.
''When we consider the danger to
our families; the time lost, expense
and hardship of someone injured
by bull; not to mention the infiu-
ence of a poor breeding program,
too frequent calvings, and waste
of vitality of the sire; there are
no good reasons for following this
practice any longer"
This year, in the Greener Past
ures Program, points are going to
be deducted for each bull running
with the herd, said Young.
I'VE hope to show farmers that
by using artificial breeding or
keeping bulls in safety pens, and
following a good breeding pro
gram, they can actually make
more money through planned milk
production"

Lincoln read Greeley's blast thought
fully. He waited two days and then
decided that the time had concluded,
Greeley had unwittingly created the OPP
portupity-to tell the American people
what the Government and its armies
were fighting for, as he saw it.
On August %, 1862 Lincoln replied to
Greeley in this historic letter in which
Lincoln revealed for all to read his de-
termination to save the Union, If he
could without regard to slavery:
Dear Sir: have just read yours of
the 10th addressed to myself through
the New York Tribune. If there be in
it any statements or assumptions of fact
which may know to be erroneous. do
not now and here controvert them. If
there be in it any differences which I
may believe to be falsely drawn. do
not now and here argue against them.
If there be perceptible in it an i'm
patient and dictatorial tone, waive it
in difference to an old friend, whose
heart I have always supposed to be
right.

suing, as you say, have not meant to
leave any one in doubt.

stitution. The sooner the national
authority can be restored, the nearer
the Union will be the Union as 1t was.
If there be those who would not save
the Union, unless they could at the
same time save slavery, do not agree
with them. If there be those who would
not save the Union unless they could at
the same time destroy slavery, do
not agree with them. My paramount
object in this struggle is to save the
Union, and is not either to save or
destroy slavery. If could save the
Union without freeing any slave, I
would do it; and If I could save it by
freeing all the slaves, would do it;
and if I could do it by freeing some
and leaving others alone. would also
the colored race, do because believe
it helps save this Union; and what l
forebear, I forebear because I do not
believe it would help save the Union.
.. I intend no modification of my
oft-expressed wish that all men, every
where, could be free"
Exactly one month from the date Of
this remarkable letter came the favor
able turn Of events at Antietam that
Lincoln was looking for. Then it was
that Lincoln, the man who was "too
slow" in doing something about slavery,
announced to the world his intention
of proclaiming, come January l. 1868,
that million slaves in the warning
Southern States were then, thence
forward and forever free"

The record of the present administra-

is the, best point in favor of the Re-

that the g. o. p. nominee is against

Turkish Exhibition

The exhibition of examples Of Turkish cul-
ture at the Library Of Congress is something
more than display Of interesting books, manu-
scripts and pictures. It is symbol OF the
friendship between Turkey and the United
States and has political Importance as well as
social significance. Much of the progress docu-
mented by the photographs shown traces back
to the ties which have been created between
the two countries in recent years. The Marshall
Plan and other cooperative arrangements have
been fruitful of constructive results, and here
is proof of the fact.
But it is not simply as an ally against
militant communism that the modern Turkish
republic deserves the attention Of the Ameri-
can public today. Turkey is nation in which
the elemental values Of democracy are an active,
living force. It has been remade under what
sometimes is called "KemaliSm"-a democratic
revolution which has changed the mind and
the spirit of the Turkish people since 1918.
Especially beginning in 1885 advancement in
economics industry agriculture, education and
popular sovereignty has been notable. Thus,
Turkey Is now shop window" Of practical
democratic civilization in the eastern Medic
terranean sector.
It is sampling of that development that is
being shown at the Library of Congress. Some
of the material exhibited was produced as far
back as the 10Th century. Much OF it is classic
and represents the Sultanate in its best period.
Still more of 1t, however Is recent and richly In
tune with our own era. The whole display offers
convincing evidence Of the real worth Of Turkish-
American amity. n Sss
