This bull was purchased from the Jean Du Luth farm in Minnesota and represents the line of breeding that has put this farm on the Guernesy map of America. James Williams, of Tillamook is the lucky purchaser of this sire and should be congratulated for his wise selection. We can not have too many such bulls in the county. Who will be the next to fall in line for better dairy cows, P. E. Allen, of Nehalem, has also recently purchased a promising Guernsey youngster from A. 1. and J. Hughes, of Oregon City. The dam of this calf is now on test and is making a very creditable record. He comes from one of the best herds in the state and is backed by all the good breeding of that herd. Jerseys. L. S. Miller, of Nehalem, returned from Portland Sunday and reports the purchase of a foundation herd of registered Jerseys from the W. S. Ladd Estate. This herd consists of a bull and seven cows. Many of the cows are of the Golden Glows Crief breeding and should be heard from in the near future. Some of them already have Registered of merit records. Mr. Miller will place this herd on his farm at Batterson and intends to put them all orf register of merit test as soon as they freshen. Come on the rest of you Jersey breeders and /et on the boat.

SCHOOL NOTES. ------ o------ Tillamook Schools Win in County Spelling C°ntests. Out of seven classes in which con­ tests were held Saturday for tili county spelling championship, the Tillamook schools won three and tied for first place in two others, in other words, five out of seven first places were won. This is especially gratify­ ing to the teachers because it shows that the Tillamook schools measure up to others in fundamental subjects, despite the fact that much time is spent on special subjects such as Alusic, Manual Training and Sewing which is used for the regular subjects in other districts of the county. The Tillamook pupils winning champion­ ship are as follows: Edith Chaphe, third grade; Arden Pangborn, fourth grade; Madge DeFord, fifth grade; Doris Sumcrlin tic for eighth grade and Ina Williams tied with Velma West, of Bay City for the champion­ ship in the high school. The judges in the last two contests pronounces the hardest words in the book in a vain attempt to spell down the con­ testants. They finally gave it up and decided to call it a tie and divide the prize between those remaining in the contest. “Good * EAT VIERECK’S BREAD, TILLAMOOK BAKERY SPELLING CONTEST.

All three contestants met as agreed upon Monday. After considering and talk­ ing it over it was agreed upon to di­ vide the prize and the honors. It was proven beyond a doubt that all knew all the words for the grade work and the Superintendent and Judges though, it would only be decided by chance or error if the spelling con­ tinued longer and suggested a com- 1 romite to the contestants.
