Letter from Mrs. Calver Mace Make Your Plans Now COOS & CURRY COUNTY F A Writing from their new home at San Pedro, Calif., the port of Los Angeles, after selling their place at Pasadena, Mrs. Calver Mace, former ly Miss Harriett Sweet, of this city, says in a letter to the Sentinel lino- typist: It is a treat to be here in summer; there is always a cool breeze and we all feel better here. Have you ever been in San Pedro? Of course, it is Los Angeles’ harbor and has grown fast. I understand the harbor is all man made, costing around ,75 mil lion dollars and they are soon to ex pend a lot more. I never see any CoquiHe people down here, but I long to.

A great dairy sire is one whose daughters have a high yield of milk and butterfat, a high average Increase In m\lk and butterfat yield over their dams, and a high percentage of their number better than their dams, Buys R. it. Graves of the bureau of dairy ing, United States Department of Ag riculture. All theae things must be takeu Into consideration when meas uring the value of a dairy sire, be says. No one of them alone offera suf ficient evidence of the sire's worth. In a study of 23 Holstein-Frleslan sires, each having six or more tested daughters from tested darns, some con clusions .were arrived at concerning the hereditary transmission of produc tion, says Mr. Graves. Some of the sires In the list raised both the milk yield and the percentage of butterfat of their daughters as compared to the production of their dame. Some raised one and lowered the other. Some lowered both. But.no one sire raised both the milk and butterfat per centage of all his daughters, nor did any one sire lower these records of all his daughters. In other words, while the sires evidenced a prepo tency for- raising er lowering produc tion, no one sire was completely pre potent. • Win ngiiif ft w: B. Wright and he is 75 years of age.

El'GENE, ORE.—The spirit of the old West will again bo revived when the "Trail to Rail” celebration, mark ing the completion of the Southern Pacific's new Cascade line between Ban Francisco and Portland via Klanr- ath Falls and Eugene, will be staged here August 19 and 20. State, county and city official to gether with representatives of the Southern Pacific and the Interstate Commerce Commission will partici pate in the two-day celebration which is expected to become the moot elabo rate affair over produced in Oregon. A pageant “Klatewa.” depicting the evolution of travel from the early days of the Indians to the present time, has been written for the colo- brattea by Prof. W. P. a Thatch« of | the University ot Oregon. More than 3000 people will participate In the production. Indians, cowboys, pioneer residents, lumberjacks, and all types of trans portation from Indian "pole drags” to the. modern locomotive and airplane, will participate In the picturesque par ade which features ths feta. Ezra Meeker, famous Oregon Trail pioneer, will have a leading part in the historical pageant Captain O. C. Applegate and Cal Young, pioneer residents of Klamath Falls and Eu- «w, will also have leading rob Indian tribal daacee by a _ group of Modoc and Klamath Indians la aaa* pected to be one ot the popster te^ tares of the cetebratioa.

The 23 sires In this study were given comparative ranking In a new method devised by Mr. Graves. Each sire was ranked In comparison with the others with respect to milk yield of his daughters, average butterfat yield, average in crease of milk yield, average Increase of butterfat, and the percentage of daughters that were better than their dams in milk ahd butterfat yield. His comparative value was indicated by the sum of his ranking In the various classes. The complete discussion of this study has been published In Depart ment Bulletin No, 1372. just Issued. A copy may be obtained, while the sup ply lasts, by writing to the United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C.
