Swett, of the Missouri College of Agriculture. Even the best judges sometimes make a mistake. But there are certain points about the dairy cow that are almost always associated with high production. The udder should be deep, wide and long with good ottnehmeuts. It should be evenly developed, level on the floor and equipped with teats of good and uniform size, symmetrically placed. It should also be soft and pliable, indicating that it consists of secreting cells rather than flesh. A good set of milk veins Indicates that the udder Is well supplied with blood. Long, crooked milk veins entering large wells or openings through the body wall are usually associated with high production. rA cow cannot be a maximum and continuous producer unless she has a strong constitution. Vitality and strength of constitution are indicated by broad, open nostril, and a chest Which is deep and broad., Feed capacity Is essential. In ordei to produce heavily a cow must consume large quantities of feed and water.

Cox, the Democratic presidential nominee, said that the liquor question was an issue as dead as the issue of slavery, and itsyas only a short time ago that President Harding said, In another generation I believe that liquor will have disappeared not merely from our politics but from our memories."- ',K Nevertheless, though the eighteenth amendment ' Is the law of' the land and Is being more or less .enforced, .prohibition still seems to be decidedly a live topic pfetty much all over the country. Wayne C. Wheeler, general counsel of the League, commenting on the congressional primaries (n seventeen stales, said : In many of these states die dominant issue in the campaign was a beer and wine amendment to the national prohibition act. Magazines and newspapers are taking polls of their readers. Straw votes have been held in many .cities and several municipal chambers of commerce have voted pro and con. Citizens of Illinois have prepared a petition with 500,000 signatures for a vote on the question of light wine and beer. Hotel tnen say that prohibition is gradually forcing the hotels of the- United States back to the American plan. ; Representative Illll of Maryland the other day wrote to Secretary Mellon of the treasury demanding the Immediate dismissal of Prohibition Commissioner Haynes on the ground that lie is using 'and- causing to be used official mail franks of the Treasury Department for the sending out of personal political propaganda in the interest of himn self and his associates, the league. Summary removal of Representative Volstead of Minnesota, 'author of the prohibition enforcement ! act, from the membership and chairmanship of the house Judiciary committee was demanded in the house by Representative Tinkhain of Massachusetts. Tlnklmm charged that Volstead owed his election to the league, which spent money on his behalf, and that Volstead has been subservient to the league's Influence. After consid-'erabl- e wrangling, the house by a vote of 141 to 3 'decided to deny Tlnkham the right to speak on the subject In the house and to expunge his resolution from the record. . ; . In congress dpcates over the effects of prohibition are frequently' staged. Senator Sterling of 'South Dakota started to introduce a resolution authorizing the prohibition authorities to board any .vessel within four marine leagues of the coast. .Then he explained that the amendment wouldnt be pressed because the secretary of state was of the opinion that the jurisdiction of the United States extended only three miles out from shore, ,tliat the resolution might make international .trouble and that 'the secretary of state was endeavoring to arrive at an amicable understanding with 3rcat Britain regarding the search of vessels. ; In the house not long ago Representative Galli-vaof Massachusetts declared the past two years (prohibition enforcement had been h 1. In brief, he argued that nothing is being accomplished and thafthe country is in a worse condition than ever before. v ; Representative William D.

During the year 1921 withdrawals of whisky In the United States amounted to less than 3,000.000 gallons, while official records reveal that before the eighteenth amendment became effective the overage American yearly consumption of whisky approximately 133,000,000. The first six months of present fiscal year there were withdrawn, tax paid, 11,962,322 gallons of nonbeverage spirits. The quantity withdrawn during the first six months of last fiscal year amounted to 22,271,180 gallons, a decrease during this fiscal year of 86 per cent. The quantity of nonbeverage spirits withdrawn during the month of December, 1921, on which the tax was paid, amounted to 1,329,206 gallons, as compared with 2,625,285 gallons withdrawn In December, 1920, a decrease of approximately 100 per cent. The quantity withdrawn in December, 1921, when compared with the quantity withdrawn in October, 1920, 4,372,127 gallons, shows a decrease of nearly 229 pet; cent. During the year 1921 whisky brought info this country from ail foreign sources was valued at $1,541,388, while during 1920 whisky from all .sources was valued at $1,013,091, representing value of whisky brought Into the country Into warehouse. During the year 1921 whisky to the value of $628,600 was withdrawn for consumption, while during the previous year whisky valued at $485400 was withdrawn for consumption, an increase of about 30,000 gallons, Insignificant, and more than accounted for by the forging of permits. At the end of the year 1921 the amount of 267,962 proof gallons of whisky, valued at $1,211,-22was remaining in the custom warehouses. The actual amount of whisky withdrawn tax paid from custom warehouses or consumed during the year 1921 amounted to 139,689 proof - gallons. The- value of such whisky, computed at $4.50 per gallon, amounts to $628,600.50.

Suddenly he knows he belongs that he is a life member of the Edgeworth Cattle officially tested during June, for tuberculosis numbered 250,-88according to a summary issued by the bureau of animal Industry, jilted States Department of Agriculture. This figure exceeds the normal amount of tuberculin testing by several thousand. Of ail the cattle tested, 8,810 reacted, thus disclosing about 3 per cent of tuberculous cattle. The removal of such animals from herds otherwise healthy is gradually bringing about better health among farm live stock, safer milk supplies, and many economic benefits. The popularity of tuberculosis eradication Is evidenced by the length of the list of herds waiting to be tested. At the end of June there were applications on file for the testing of 35,239 herds, containing more than half a million cattle. Edgeworth smokers are generality good, likable chaps.
