OIN i CO-OPERATIVE BULL ASSOCIATION est Way to Rapidly Develop Fine Milk Cows. Clemson Sollege, May 9.?The purjse of bull associations Is to bring x>ut the rapid development of protctive milk cows of good conformaon. This Is accomplished principally T the joint purchase, ownership, use, cchange, and sale of good purebred liry bulls. A recent census report lows 20.1.000 milk cows in South Car* | ina. Most of these cows are not kept i dairies, but are used on farms and i villages to furnish the family milk ipply. Not more than one-half of one er cent are purebreds. The ma* >rity of these milk cows do not irry enough dairy blood to give them tendency to produce milk profitay; therefore the families owning ich cows are without milk, except r a few months after their cows eshen. By Producing the blood of ghly devel ed dairy cows through leir sons th^ calves from our pres* it milk cows may become handsomeprofitable cows. u- A i nc v/rgnrii^diiuii. A bull association consists of three ' more communities owning at least xee high class bulls. Each commaty is known as a block of this assoation. The number of members in ich block will depend on the number ' cows owned. Since each block tould consist of 30 to 60 cows owned ithin one and one-half to two miles ! the community center, one man srning 40 cows might form a block one, while the next community ight have 20 members owning a to1 of 50 cows. The association is anaged by a board of directors constjng of one member selected from ich block to serve one year. This >ard of directors manages and conols all the business and the associa \t? moVoa nmnor srntnMment of ie blocks, selects, purchases, and lis the bulls of the association, fixes e rate of compensation for bull se* ce, arranges for keepers and their impensation, and for the care and mdling of bulls. How to Organize an Association. The success of a co-operative bull isociation depends largely on the ,re used in its organization. Before I organization is attempted, the far-, ers interested should obtain as uch information as possible-regardg the plan of operation. This inrmation can be secured from the >unty agricultural agent or from the intension Service of Clemson Colge. Active work by the county agrt sltural agent is necessary in order perfect a bull association, since takes the time of some one very uch interested to see the members the communities and get them toother In a county organization. After those interested have been inrmed as to the plans the county jent should call a meeting in each immunity sutable for a block. At lis meeting the plan of operation of ? bull association should be gone rer and explained by the county rent, a dairy specialist, or a member as association already in operaon. Those present desiring to beime members should sign an agreeent somewhat like the following: "We, the undersigned farmers of ?... county, realising tut jed of more profitable dairy cows id the importance of purebred dairy ills of good breeding, hereby agree beoome members of the proposed operative bull association, provided at satisfactory constitution and by* ws can be drawn up and adopted, id that a block can be formed with* reaeh of our farms." At this community meeting a dele* ite or director should be elected to teed the county meeting at which a institution and by-laws are drawn up id directors elected. This county eeting is held after all the communi* as Interested have held their local eatings. The asseaament tor purlaslng the bulls is levied by the dt* ctors equally on each black. This cessment may be apportioned to the embers of the blocks in either of two ays. If there Is a rather thick cow ipulation among the members, the iseesment may be made on each cow ibscrlbed. If the members have only few cows each, the assessment may ? made on the "share" bests, each ember taking an equal amount of ock. For example, suppose $300.00 ills are to be purchased. If there are a members owning 30 cows In one ock. the assessment on "per cow* tsis would be 110.00 for each cow ibscrlbed. On the "share" basis, it ould take $30.00 worth of stock for ich member in that block. By using these high class bulls one ter another the farmers can rapidly avelop fine milk cows. The calves om the first bull used will carry 5t jr cent Improved blood. When they i turn are bred to the next bull, their lives will carry 75 per cent improved ood. The next cross carries 87 per snt and the next cross 96 per cent nproved blood. )me Advantages of Bull Associations. 1. Better and fewer bulls at less >st. 2. Opportunity for line breeding by archasing bulls suitably bred to reed^to one another's daughters. S. The exchange of bulls every two ears, by means of which continued se of the bulls can be had until their alue as breeders is proved. 4. Tho introduction of purebred jws. 5. The establishment of one breed i a county. . ROBS OTHER BIRDS OF PREY 'Frigate Pelican" Secure* Ita Food Chiefly by Forcing Ita Weakar Brethren te Disgorge. The frigate bird, also called the manof-war hawk and the "frigate pelican," | is a sea bird, so called from Its attacks on other birds. This bird, very large and with black plumage. Is capable of very powerful and rapid flight It sometimes measures ten feet from tip to tip of its extended wings. On uccount of its Immense extent of wing and its dashing habits, it has been called the swiftest bird that sweeps the seas. The frigate bird is a tropical sea bird of two species. The larger ranges all round the world within the tropics; the smaller is found only near the eastern seas -from Madagascar to Moluccas and southward to Australia. Both species breed in large colonies, building their nests on rocks, high cliffs or lofty 11t"is on uninhabited islands. The birds ofteu fly far out to sea. hut most of the time they remain near shore. The frigate bird's aerial evolutions are extremely graceful aud it soars to great heights. It is said never to dive for its prey, but to seize fishes only when they appear at the surface or above it. Flying fishes form a great part of its food. This bird of prey also pursues gulls and terns and eats the fish it forces them to disgorge. The male acquires under its bill a bright scarlet pouch which is capable of Inflation. HOUSED IN OLD BUILDINGS Financial Institutions of Yorktown, Virginia, Do Business Among Historic Surroundings. Within 2D miles of where the first English settlement In America was made at Jamestown Is the scene where Capi:. John Smith records the story of his rescue by Pocahontas, the daughter 01! the Indian chief, Powhatan. Within a circle of 20 miles Is to be found the oldest Protestant church In America; the kitchen where Martha Washington cooked In good colonial style; the college which has graduated three presidents; Bruton church, In which more men of historical importance have worshiped than in any other church In America I ?and Yor^'town, where Cornwallls surrendered to Washington. Although Yorktown has a population of less than two hundred, It has two banks, both of which are working -in what are probably the two oldest buildings uaed for banks In America. One of these banks, operating under state and trust company laws, is housed in the historic oldest customhouse built in America?erected in 1715. Here the ships for Philadelphia were once compelled to enter and clear. Here at one time was the gathering place of the financiers of the early colonists. Wall street has taken away the financiers, but tus left the same o a ounaing wiui us same old walls of English brick, some 24 by 40 feet squire and two stories high. Panama Canal Locks. There are few things more Interesting to the average traveler than to pass through the great locks of the Panama canal The vessel enters very slowly and f jb at e does lines are taken aboard leading to electric motors or "moles," which keep her In the center of the lock. Then the great gates at the rear swing together and the water Is turned Info the enclosure thus formed. Losing over the side of the steamer one sees a great bobble of water rise from the bottom, then a second and third appear until finally the whole surface of the lock Is boiling. The pressure Is so great that often fish sucked Into the drains that lead from the Gatum lake, are drawn In and thrown several feet Into the air. When the proper level la finally reached the gate ahead of the vessel opens and the "mules ntart forward, dragging the vessel free from the lode before she moves ahei.d under her own power. Carnival Festivities. Carnival festivities originated in the Roman Catholic countries of Iwipe, where they ware celebrated, especially In Roma and Naples with great mirth aad freedom daring the week before the beginning of Lent Mardl Gras (literally "Fat Tuesday," so called for the French practice of parading a fat ox, "boenf gras," during the celebration of the day), or Shrove Tuesday, is the lest day of the carnival. The festivities were first In-| traduced Into New Orleans In 108, by | one of Its French ettlxens, Mr. Marlfny, and for many yean they consisted of promiscuous maskers roaming through the streets of the city, Indtff* lug In various kinds of amusements, fun and folly. Oldest Crown Jewel a Sapphire. Only a few of the early British rojal Jewels survive In the present regalia. The oldest of these Is the sapphire of Edward the Confessor, which was originally set In his coronation ring. It was burled with lilm In his shrine In Westminster Abbey, but In 1101 the shrine was broken open and this and other Jewels removed. The sapphire Is In the cross on the top of the king's state crown. Legend has It that St. John once appeared before the Confessor as a pilgrim, and that the monarch gave him the ring, which was returned later. The stone Is reputed to have the power of curing sciatica and rheumatlnn, but has not been used for rhis pur i Chickens Wanted! iit ' ' ! /"*. , ;; !! Tjj|. 1 :: Bring m e .your ;; ~ .
