The Washington and Jetferson-Cali- | fornia game is over, and Coach Neale’s | eleven has proven that all the super- men in football are not on the Pacific’ Coast. The game has also demonstrated | that W. & J. has a. better team than most of the critics gave it credit for, or else California wasn’t as strong as the advance notices made us believe. Washington and Jefferson was robbed of a victory because of one of the toughest. breaks a football team could possibly get, the calling of an oft-side play, as a touchdown is scored. Shortly after the game Had started. Halfback Brenkert ran 40 yards’ for at touchdown. The score was, not al- lowed because one of the officials | ruled a W. & J. player was off-side. | That score would have given the east- | ern eleven victory, had it been allowed, | All of which brings us to the real) reason for this story.

Left-Handed’ Hitters: Lead. -When Heilman beat out Cobb in 1921, after a hectic struggle that last- ed throughout the year, it was the first time since 1904 that a right- handed hitter landed on the top in the American League. In 1906 George Stone of the St. Louis club, with a mark' of .358 led the American League hitters. Stone was not a hard-hitter. He was very fast, and had a habit of chopping the ball to the infield and beating out the high bounds for many a. base it was a more brilliant performance than his shutout victory. He was in the hole atleast a-half dozen times, where a base hit would have meant ‘the ball game, Each time he tignt- ened up, and either made the;danger- ous Giant batter whiff, or pop’ up. Waite Hoyt is one of the’ game's greatest pitchers. His performance in the world series was not merely a flash. It was a typical Hoyt perform- ance. ¢ _Hoyt will do big things “for the Yankees in 1922 or I miss my guess. He will bé a much better pitcher than he was last season.

Margaret COW-TESTING ASSOCIATIONS «Where Organized @ Decided Improve- ment Has Been Noted in Quality of Dairy Herds. i (Prepared by the United ‘States Department! of Agriculture.) The practice of testing cows to de- termine their milk and butter-fat pro- duction and feed ‘consumption — by means of cow-testing associations has become widespread. There are now 452 associations of this kind in the’ United States, besides many in foreign countries, In most cases each associa- tion has one tester and no’more cows than ean be well handled, but there are some very large ones and some| that are much smaller than the stand- ard, ‘The theoretical number of mem-| bers in a cow-testing association is 26,| | which makes one member for the test- er to visit each. working day of the month, A'member of such an assocla- tion is supposed to, have not*more than 30 cows, as that makes a large day’s work. If every member had that number, there would be 780 cows in the association, but few of them have that many. There is no definite relation between the number of members in an assocta- ‘tion and the number of cows owned. In California there ig one’ association that tests 4,000 cows and another that tests 4,400,,and the number of mem- bers are, respectively 46.and 100, An- other in the, sameistate has 89 mem- bers and only 13489 cows; there are 12 associations in California with over Testing Associations Uncover High Producers. 1,000 cows each. Ordinarily the num- ber of cows in an association runs from 300 to 500, the average for the coun- try being 429. The number of herds average 24.8. To have more than one tester is a California practice; and one association in that state has three. In contrast to the large associations .in California and @ few elsewhere, there are some that are quite small. One in Massachusetts has 9 members and 125 cows; another in Kansas has 10 members and 85 cows; and ‘in Michigan there is, one, with 4 herds and only 45 cows. The use of co-operative cow-testing associations has résulted in great im- provement in the quality of the dairy cows in the localities where they have been organized by reason of the sift- ing out of the low producers and the discovery of good cows that might otherwise have been sacrificed. ‘The United States Department of Agricultute collects statistics of all the .cow-testing associations and is- sues a directory of all those that are active on July 1 each year. It also assists {n the organization of assq- clations, working throigh the county agent if there is one/in the comnu- nity. COW TESTING IS NECESSARY Wisconsin Farmer Makes Concise Re- port of His Experience to the , Dairy. Division. i : What: the >cow-testing work haa meant. to one Wisconsin farmer was stated, so. simply and concisely ‘in a\ report to an agent of the dairy divi- sion, United States Department of Ag- riculture,..that. it is worth passing along.. This farmer says: “The cow testing in the west section of Outagamie county has been carried on. with marked success. “We have become: hetter acquainted. The man who has been’ taking good care of his cows has also become bet- ter known. . “We have learned to know our cows) not by what they seemed but by what they actually are, to understand the necessity of selecting heifer calves) from our best cows to be raised for) our future herd. “We have learned to look on the! dairy cow not as a necessary part of| our personal property but a real live} machine, capable of returning values) received plus, and that plus depending! * largely upon the care, feed, and brecd- ing of the dairy cow.” STERILIZATION IS ESSENTIAL! All Pails, Strainers, Separator Parts, Etc., Should Be Steamed for Five Minutes.’ oy Ba Milk will keep better and make bet- ter products if all pails, strainers, and Separater parts are sterilized, says the United States Department of Agricul; ture. Use live steam for five minutes. If you cannot get live steam, boil all utensils for at: least five minutes.
