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
