BOBBED HAIR OLD AS HILLS SAYS AUTHORITY Chicago, Sept. 10.—Bobbed — hair,! concealed ears, short skirts and all! the other fads and foibles associated | with modern women’s slyles are aa! old as the pyramids according to the; mute story told by the mummies of both Egypt and Peru in the Field!

Dr. J. Alden Mason, As- sistant Curator of Mexican and Soutir American Anthology at the Museum! has prepared an outline of the known| history of the Peruvian Mummies.

And now the mummies of. both of these peoples tell of sttange similar- ities in style, adornment, manners and industries to those of the present gen- eration.

WAR RISK MONEY MAKE RECIPIENT RICHEST IN TOWN Philadelphia, Sept.. 9.—An_ old peasant woman.was made the richest | woman in her village by a letter from | the ‘War Risk Insurance Bureau. pf the American Government. The in- cident is told by a member of the Friends’ Relief Mission. in Poland who writes: 5 “We were just driving .into, Va town of Hrubieszow in the war-! ravaged district of Poland when a} peasant woman, clad in. rags, and barefooted, came up to the watin and presented g letter which she. could not read. It proved to be from the; War Risk Insurance Bureay at ‘Wash- | ington, stating that her son had ‘died! in the American army and that his insurance would come to her for 20 years, at the rate of $25 a month. Already there was $00 waiting for} her, which would be sent shortly by! check. “The woman's face was shadowed as she heard of her son’s death but it brightened with amazement when she heard of the money. -The son had not been heard from for three years and his death had been taken for granted. She had other children and they had all been living in a dugout, with no wood for building a house and no implements to farm with and only a diet’ of rye and potatoes. “The $900. in American money makes, at the present rate of ex- change, over 1,500,000 Polish marks and would make her the richest wo- mah in the village and puobably in the country. “T consulted the postmaster for her and he said that when she made her mark upon the check the local bank would pay her the money. Only, of course, no local bank would be able to cash so large a check without first getting the money from Warsaw. “This is a fair example of the dif- ference in exchange between Ame! ca and Poland.” DOG LIKES TO TAKE LONG DRIVES} | | | | i | Kansas City, Mo. pt. 10.—Mrs. Edward Beardan noticed a fox terrier | wandering about the street here.

The present dairyman was placed in charge of the department some ten months ago. During that period a complete system of records has been installed, including identification tags and description, as well as picture or drawing of each animal. The herd consists of pure bred Hol- steins, well graded Holsteins and a |few Poll Angus. The milk from each cow is weighed at every milking and a record kept thereof. A sample of each cow’s milk is tested monthly by the state dairy commission, which test is also recorded. In this way the production of each cow for the month or year may bé determined and the “poarders” culled out ‘and butchered. From January 1, 1921 to July 1, 1921 the herd produced an average. oI Ibs. (nearly four gallons) of milk per day for each cow—which Jincluded several “boarders,” the previous rec- ords not being sufficient to identify them. The average test for butter fat was 3.6 lbs. or 165 Ibs. butter fat per cow for the six month’s period. Nor were the conditions favorable for high production, the hay and silage not be- ing the best, and the grain not being a balanced ration. Nevertheless this record compares favorably. with the production of the previous five years for the same period, being an increase of 40 to 90 per cent for the various years. Fal Ol The cost’ of production averaged 24 1-2 cents per day per. cow-for feed (si- lage, hay ‘and grain) for the winter months. This is less than a cent a pound for the milk produced, and shows what can be made in dairying in this section of the country. Of course, pasture would be the only cost for the summer months, no grain being fed.

He seems to know when any one is leaving for a motor trip and always finds some way of joining them.” He told of having frequently sent for the dog many miles from his home. The trip to Kansas City seemed to have been his longest one. START MONSTER VESSEL Belfast, Sept. 10.—The keel has been laid of a 32,000-ton vessel ordered by the ‘Holland-American line.
