If our dairymen are to compete with those from oilier sections, the cost of producing ntilk for market must be reduced," says A. C. Iximrey, dairy extension specialist at the North Carolina State college. "The best way to do this is to provide more and better pastures which will supply profitable grazing for at least seven months of the year and to grow an abundance of high quality legume hay for winter feeding. Grass is the. cheapest source of nutrients for milk production. Tills grass may be grown anywhere In North Carolina where the dairymen will use fertile land for the purpose. It is impossible to build a good pasture on poor soil just as it is Die to secure a profitable corn yield on poor soil. Mr. Kimrey says this does not mean to use the more desirable fields of the farm as pasture; but there are many farms with good rolling land which will wash badly when cultivated that may lie profitably planted to grass. Good creek bottoms could also be used. The dairy cow will pay a high return per acre for good pasture.

Tlie visitor to Washington, who goes by train, sees one of the greatest monuments ever erected to the memory of Columbus the moment he steps out of tlie Union station there. On the plaza in front of the station is tlie nations formal tiibute to tlie Italian naigator the magnificent Columbus fountain by I.orado Taft. The outstanding fea-tui- e of tlie fountain is a stone shaft about 45 feet high, surmounted by a globe which forms the background for the statue of Columbus, who stands upon tlie prow of a vessel, with arms folded in an attitude of meditation. The figurehead of tlie ship is a beautiful female figure typifying the spirit of discovery. On each side of tlie shaft are massive figures representing the New and Old worlds. Tlie New world is an American Indian, reaching over ills shoulder for an arrow from his quiver. Tlie Old world is typified by a patriarchal Caucasin of heroic mold and thoughtful mien. Tlie globe at the top of tlie shaft suggests tlie influence of Columbus on tlie growth of mans knowledge of tlie shape of the earth. It is supported by four American eagles, standing at tlie corners of the top of the shaft, with wings partly extended. On tlie rear of the shaft is a medallion representing Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain, the patrons of Columbus voyage of discovery, and the group of figures is completed by two enormous lions which crouch on pedestals at the ends of the balustrade. The plan for erecting this memorial was started by a fraternal order, the Knights of Columbus, who solicited contributions from the various councils of the order throughout the country. To the large amount of money which this organization raised was added an appropriation of $100,000 by congress and tlie work of erecting the memorial was given to a commission composed of the chairman of the senate and house committees on the library, thq secretary of state, the secretary of war and the supreme knight of the Order of the Knights of Columbus. The commission selected the plaza in front of the Union station as the site for the memorial and adopted the design submitted by Daniel II. Burnham, architect of the Union station nnd member of the National Commission of Fine Arts, and Lnrado Taft, sculptor, both of Chicago. The Capitol contains two striking reminders of Columbus. In the rotunda is the magnificent painting by John Vanderiyn, an American artist and pupil of Gilbert Stuart, which depicts Tlie Landing of Columbus. This picture Is so well known that it needs no further description here. In the lobby of the senate gallery is the painting of another scene in the life of Columbus by another American artist. It is The Recall of Columbus" by A. G. Heaton, a descendant of the famous painter. Rembrandt ieale. Tliis painting, completed in 1SS3 from Studies made in Spain, was sold to tlie United States government and copied by engraving on the stamp of the Columbian series, issued to commemorate tlie Worlds Columbian exposition at Chicago in 1893.
