ON HONOR-ROLL ^!'^^:Hr'..;41,, Frince WiUiam Cows Continue

ta Make Fine Records in Official Tests.

(G. W. Merchant, Jr., Official Terterj There baa been a steady increase in

the number of cows producing 60 pounds of botterfat ot mor* per month. ^

The best single production of milk for the month of February was 1812 pomids of milk and 54.86 pounds of butterfat. This record-making cow is a purebred Holstein owned by Mr. J. A. Hooker, of Nokeaville.

The best single production for but­terfat was 79.44 pounds pf botterfat and 1470 pounds of milk. This is a Giiemsey cow owned' by Mr. W. A. Madison.

The best average herd production for the month was 714.22 pounds of milk and 39.14 pounds «t butterfat. This is a hwd consisting maijtly of grade Holstein cow* owned by Mr. H. C. Allen.

The average production of the 286 cows leiited duriiig the month was 604.05 pounds of milk and 28.02 pounds of butterfat. Among the 266 cows tested there were 38 that made the roll or honor—* percentage of 10.1. Since this number includes many of the most profitable cows in the county it Is reasonilble to expect the members of the association are ^oiag evei^^inK^ to promote, j he pro­duction of liiilk and botter&t in their herds.

Three Junior two-year-old made the roll of honor, two belonging to Mr. H. C. Allen and one to BIr. £ . E. Hale. These are three fine young grade Holsteins.

The following table gives the names and records of the cows in .the aaeod-atioD which have produced more than 50 pounds of botterfat during the period of thirty days ending February

It has come to my ears that some of those connected with the Farmers' Un­ion Store were being paid largely for their services and activities. ' These reports were so ridicnlom that at first I treated them as a huge joke passed on UB for merriment by our friends, but upon reflection, I feel that an offi­cial explanation- and refutation is due the public who we invite to trade with us at our store. During the month of F e b r o a ^ I acted as boolckeeper and treaaujSLfflf-ttie store, every cent pass­ed through my hands so I know where­of I speak. Not one cent was paid to any one except Mr. Byrd who was em­ployed as storekeeper at the very nom­inal sum of $100 a month. He was the only "paid" man on the job. All the other brethren who so grratiously helped to start and make the store the great soccess it is, did so entirely gT&-tuitously, not accepting a single cent for sorvkes rendered though lt""Ras meant a great sacrifice of {liersonal and business interests. I t has now been arranged^ thcit' Mr. Geo.' B. McDctoald be associated with Mr. Byrd in the •grS6on~onhe~8loreT.hat customers may be more promptly waited on and 80 Mr. Byrd may act as bookke^>er and treasurer:^ These, two men are the only .ones now on the payrolls of the exchange. Respectfully ypors,

Not long ago the nurse who in- j spects the school children in a certain rural dia&nct^«f this j»tat« was told that a little girl pupil had been at honae sick for two weeks and it was rumored that she had diphtheria. There wae no telephone so a long country ride was necessary, but the nurse realized the importance of finding out the facts. When she reached the house, the mother of the little girl met her at the door.
