Dairymen In Ohio accepted a let- . son from the dairymen of Denmark when they organized dairy herd Improvement associations, or cow testing associations, as they are most commonly called. The forerunners of the modern Ohio herd improvement associations were the Kontrol societies of Pen1 mark, organized 40 years ago. The Kontrol society, like the 30 mod ern Ohio dairy herd Improvement associations, was formed to provide for a monthly visit of a tester. The tester weighed the milk produced by each cow In the herd and samtie pled It for butterfat testing, also kept a record of feed consumed and computed production costa for each Individual cow In the herd. From these records, kept year after year, the dairymen of Den mark were able to cull from their herds the poor cows and find and So effective keep the good ones. were the associations In Denmark that the country raised the average production per cow to 8,000 pounds of milk and 300 pounds of butter- fat Average production of Ohio herds Is about 5,000 pounds. Testing year In and year out with an eye to the low producing Indi viduals and their elimination from all future pedigrees offers our only hope for continued breeding of use ful dairy cattle. Plant Beach Grass to Check Blowing Sand The first private attempt to re claim thousands of acres of shifting sand In New York state was made re cently near Brushton, In Franklin county. Nearly 5,000 clumps of beach grass were planted on a farm. The field, which Is representative of nearly 10,000 acres In Franklin county, and of more acres In nine counties surrounding the Adlron-dackIs worse than waste land, for it will not grow crops and Is a menace to a nearby road. The field grew 80 bushels of buckwheat to the acre 30 years ago, and five years age an attempt was made to hold The the sand by planting trees. trees were literally blown from the 4 KMC r 1 PTr By ELMO SCOTT WATSON HE gates are thrown open and through them pour the thousands. They surge down a broad thoroughfare "the Avenue of Flags," where hundreds of banners of every color, hung from "modernistic" flag- staffs of a kind you've never seen before, stream In the wind that blows from off Lake Michigan. And then the buildings and streets and avenues and terraces and gardens and courts and lagoons that are Chicago's A Century of Progress swallow them up and their places are taken by other thousands who follow close behind. They are off upon a tour of the world the whole world spread out before their eyes within the space of 424 acres. Which foreign land will you visit first, Mr. and Mrs. American and Young America? Shall it be Argentina or Algeria, Mexico or Morocco, iuaternnla or Czechoslovakia? From the hushed solemnity of the Golden Temple of Jehol, the Chinese Lama temple where the Manchu emperors worshiped Buddha and the other gods two centuries ago, it Is but a step to a lively sidewalk cafe in the Montmartre section of Paris. Would you prefer to be amused by dancing girls, wrestlers, Jugglers and sword fighters In a typical Oriental street, or to watch the nimble fingers of the handicraft artisans In a Belgian village made up of transplanted portions of The world Is Jhent, Bruges and Malines? "your oyster," Mr. and Mrs. American and Young America. All you have to do Is open It ! No thrill In visiting foreign lands, you say? And you never liked geography In school, anyway? Then a trip "Farthest South" by stepping down Into the hold of the ship which Admiral Byrd sailed Into the Antarctic may not thrill you. But how about stepping Into the bathysphere In which Dr. William Beebe descended 2,200 feet beneath the waters of the sea, or Into this featherweight aluminum globe In which Dr. August Plccard ascended 54,000 feet Into the stratosphere? Certainly you can't say "Oh, everybody goes THERE!" If A Century of Progress were "just another world's fair," the foregoing might be representative of "the whole world" which It offers. But there Is another "world" which the visitor discovers here the world of science and Invention, the new world that has been created by the Ingenuity of mankind during his progress of the past century. And this Is the world which offers the thrills, for unlike expositions of the past with the customary static rows of still "exhibits," A Century of Progress Is a show In motion. Movement . . . action . . . things In the process of making or being . . . Life I That Vs the world that Is unfolded before your eyes. One of the most Important things In making this possible Is the diorama, a small stage with a realistically painted background and actors built In perspective In the foreground. Dioramas have been used for years In museums, but here machines and chemical reagents take the place of stuffed animals. Molecules and Ions perform for you. You "see" a radio wave bringing you your favorite music or the voice of your favorite comedian. You stand In front of one case and push a lever or two and under your hand an earthquake Is produced, geysers spout boiling water and volcanoes belch forth lava and gas. For a moment you are a god on Mount Olympus! You stand before "The Transparent Man," a model of the human body heroic In size. Your eye possesses the penetrating power of and you see the nervous, respiratory, circula tory, digestive and muscular systems In action, of a twig (enYou gaze upon a larged many times) and you see the cells In It growing. You are looking at Life! The history of the human race might be writ ten In terms of Its means of transportation.

Young America's dream realized I What boy hasn't visualized himself actually "running a real train"? Here it Is something of a miniature, It is true, but "real," nevertheless. S Before you pass the pageant of travel rumt, bling Conestoga wagons, stage-coaclocomotives and railway cars of every description, a Yankee clipper ship, Robert Fulton's steamboat, the first automobiles, the Wright's first airplane and the giant vehicles of land and sea and air of today. You see a whole century of history passing In review before you. (Did you, by chance, drive your own car here? Do you know how many parts make up a modern automobile and what takes place under the hood to "make It go"? In one place you see the whole process of making an automobile from the time the raw ore Is converted Into steel until the shiny new car comes off the assembly line. Movement . . . action . . . things In the process of making or being . . . Life!) The whole world In 424 acres and a hundred years In one day ! Yes, even more than a hundred years. Over here is a building from which "the centuries look down upon you." It Is the Maya Temple, the famed Nunnery at l, Yucatan, relic of a civilization that was old, old, old, when Columbus touched the shores of North America. And two minutes walk from this building with Its fantastically carved walls and its brilliant colors are the houses in which we may find ourselves living during the next few years steel houses, glass houses, houses of building material undreamed of during an era of brick, wood and stone construction, houses which are unlike any houses ever before con ox-car- post-chais- ...

Mr. Yamasakl speaks under the heading "On Getting Stung." He gays : "I grieve when I look back at the time I saw in my steady kissing my boss, my best friend, just to hold her job. Stunned and stung, but just to keep on earning my buck, I was forced by sheer politeness to say nothing.

(Some day will a future great American be born In one of those houses, as a great American was born In that log hut which stands over there the replica of a famous dwelling place which once stood near Hodgen-vllle- , Ky.?) Come to the Ilall of Social Sciences and look upon another type of history, social history, the history of an American family. It la a revolving The stage. First the Colonial family appears. women are spinning, weaving, drying fruits and meats, while the children play at the work of their elders. A screen descends and the family appears in a house which is part of a village, a community, with church, school and a courthouse. Out of the village leads a boggy road over which a horseman struggles with a stagecoach. The stage revolves to show the family of 1033 city dwellers In an apartment house, with telephone and radio. Cans on the shelf show the nature of the food supply. Outside one glimpses amusement houses, parks, schools and factories. The boggy road has been replaced by the motor highway and railroad, while an airplane soars above. Just a bit dizzy, Mr. and Mrs. American, from looking at the whole world compressed Into this small space and watching the centuries roll past your eyes? Better give heed then to Young America's plea "I want to go over to the Enchanted Island" he knows he will find there the stuff of which childhood's dreams are made: a magic mountain down which to slide, a fairy castle, a miniature railroad and heroic figures of toys and story book characters. How to get there? Why, take the Sky Ride, of course. What the Eiffel Tower was to the Paris exposition and the Ferris Wheel was to the World's Fair of '93, the Sky Ride Is to A Century of Progress. They call it "the supreme thrill of A Century of Progress." But It Is more than just the outstanding amusement thrill of the big show of '33. It points the way to a vehicle of transportation of the future, an aerial ferry which may make modern suspension bridges obsolete. So its G28-festeel towers, the highest structures west of New York, and Its rocket cars, symbolize not only the progress of the past century but the progress of the next censure-enoug- h man-mad- tury to come as well.
