June 10Th Red
Letter Day For
Brother-Sister

The morning of Wednesday,
June 10th Carson Roper, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. F. c. Roper, 1243
Hereford rd., received his bache-
lor's degree in Business Admins
tration at Western Reserve Uni
versity. Later in the afternoon he
chauffered his mother and sister,
Ann to New York City where on
Saturday, June 10Th she boarded
the SIS. Seven Seas as one of
student passenger list of 1850
under a project known as The
Experiment in International Liv-
ing.
Ann is one of group of nine
French students. Their American
leader is Mrs. Doris Davis of New
Haven, Conn.
Headquarters for the first month
of their. stay is in Mulhouse,
France, where each student will
live with an adopted" French
non English speaking family.
Then the group heads for Paris
where the Experiment maintains
its storehouse of bicycles. A bike
tour of France includes, with each
American student, an adopted"
French brother or sister. Some
times they board trains, bikes and
all, to expedite travel. Mainly they
sleep in churches, barns, tents or
in the open under starry skies.
At the termination of the bicycle
trip a week in Paris spells finale
to the holiday. On September 3rd
they are due to happily greet that
most welcome of sights, the Statue
of Liberty.
Ann is majoring in French at
Ohio Wesleyan University where
she is Junior. She hopes to couple
it with economics when in 1856
she will seek a career.
Carson has no immediate plans
other than continuing at Woldoor
& Surfaces Inc. of which Mr..
Roper sr. is president, and where
he has worked part time for the
past two years.

State Fire Marshal, Charles R.
Scott, today appealed to all parents
to exercise every precaution to pre-
vent their children from buying or
using fireworks between now and
the 4th Of July. Mr.. Scott said,
II am sure no parent would want
to be responsible, through his own
sanction or neglect, for the loss of
a hand or eye of his own or some
one else's child"
The Congress Of the United
States, realizing the seriousness of
the fireworks problem, recently
passed a bill to prohibit the trans
portation of fireworks into any
state in which the sale or use of
such fireworks is prohibited. Sena-
tor Wiley of Wisconsin, speaking
for the bill on the floor of the
United States Senate, said, son

East Cleveland has a d d
strength to the state regulation by
adopting an ordinance in line with
state requirements.
This ordinance prohibits the use
of fireworks, cap guns, sparklers,
etc. Adults are reminded not to
purchase them anywhere, not to
give them to the children. Public
fireworks displays are permitted
under specified conditions.
Just as a reminder Chief of
Police H. s. Weaver draws the at
tention of parents-and all adults
to the fact that fireworks-both
their selling and their use-are
banned in Ohio.

that the dams were seven-eighths sisters, so
very close breeding was the result. This was
later to demonstrate that close breeding with
proper selection can work to good advantage.
To indicate the league the Apologize
herd was getting into, Wyoming Hereford
Ranch, Cheyenne, Wyo., purchased very
close relative to both bulls. Later WHR, Dan
Thornton and other breeders developed
family of cattle known the world over. 1t
was known as the ''Stewardess' family
Other Families
Following the purchase of these first two
bulls, Apologize purchased two Perfect
Reals, another family of cattle that he claims
did him lot of good. In fact he still has a
few of the daughters of one of the bulls.
Then came a Penn Master bull. But he
broke his leg and died. Then Real Prince.
And he was so good Apologize went back to
the Owen Ranch for another just like him.
He probably made better selection the sec
ond time, for this bull, the most expensive
$500 that he had purchased to date, was
the bull that did him the most good.
"He was the cheapest bull / ever
bought" said Bill 81 used him to produce
seven crops of calves, and they were really
top calves. They put the polish on the work
done by earlier bulls At the Deer Lodge
junior show, for example, his progeny won
three out of four awards in the club calf
division"
These were calves shown by either Joe
or Billie-Jean, son and daughter of the APP
plegates, or by boys or girls who had pur-

chased club calves from them to feed out.
Of late years there have been couple of
Fulscher Domino bulls, an Elation bred bull
and couple of Jayhawker breeding. One
bull now in use is Of Jayhawker breeding on
the dams side. All have been purchased
from Owen and are of his breeding Just
few months ago, however, Bill purchased
bull calf of closely allied breeding from
Lloyd Cowan & Son, Deer Lodge.
Over the years, Bill paid an average of
about $3.50 each for the Is bulls he has used.
Most he purchased as calves He generally
picked what he thought was the top calf,
price alone not being the determining factor.
Seven of the bulls were sold on the baloney
market after use, bringing back a total of
around SIPS average, or ST ,010 in all. Two
of the bulls died lone of old age) and two are
still in use in the herd All in all, Bill figures
he has invested, over actual baloney value
return, about SO 200 over the years And he
still is a couple of bulls now in use to the
good.
Most of all he has a herd of beef cows
that would make some registered herds look
a bit peaked. They are big, deep, well
fleshed COWS that turn off calves in the fall
weighing around 500 pounds. The calf crop
percentage has been pushing well up into
the high COS. They represent pretty good
investment in the cow business.

A PUREBRED Hereford bull first started
N 'keepin' company" with rather nom
descript cow herd of mixed color and indefi-
mite origin in 1880 During the "a years since
then none but purebred Sires has been used
in the herd and each and every one has been
the product of one breeder.
That's the breeding story behind the Bill
Apologize beef herd near Deer Lodge in
Powell County. 1t all started when Apple
gate purchased Beau Domino 1906531 a
double-bred grandson of the famous old
Prince Domino This bull, whose mother was
first prize senior yearling heifer at the Bill
lings show in 1924, was priced at $3.50.
A big improvement was noted through
the infusion of his blood the first year An
other year and another bull was purchased.
Again the price was the same, and in this
case a seven-eighths brother to the first bull
was selected. His mother had stood next to
the dam of the first bull in the 1924 Billings
show.
Close Breeding
Ellery Owen, Philipsburg, was the herds
man with the George B. Franks cattle on the
show circuit that year. Owen liked the heif-
ers so well that he purchased both of them
and added them to the Owen herd in the
upper Flint Creek Valley. And it was in this
herd that w. M. Zozel an uncle of Bill APP
plegate, found the bull calves he liked. APP
plegate now owns the former Zozel herd.
Just recently Owen had this to say:
The second calf was sired by half
brother of the first calf. But bear in mind
