WICHIT\ FALLS & NORTHWESTERN RAILWAY
Industrial Department, July 2, 1920.
Mr. A. G. Mayse, Sec'y
Collin County Purebred Livestock Association,
McKinney, Texas.
Dear Mr. Mayse:
I appreciated being taken to the Pecan Grove Dairy by Mr. Everett,
and was very much pleased to see the class of livestock you have there and
to learn in what a business like manner these dairy cattle were being cared
for. I believe that I can truthfully say, Mr. Mayse, that it has not been my
pleasure to visit a commercial dairy where higher type dairy cows were being
raised, nor under any better condition is milk produced for the public. In
looking over your animals, I feel assured that quite a number are capable
of making a successful register of merit test. Contented cows, carefully and
quietly handled in the pasture as well as in the barn, mean most to a success-
ful dairy man. The breeding of your animals in so far as I was able to ascer-
tain, is of the best and I am sure that anyone desiring to enter the pure bred
Jersey cattle business can feel safe in purchasing such foundation stock as
you are offering. Tested cows should mean more to a purchaser who is just
starting into the business for it is absolutely an assurance of what those
cows will do under certain conditions. Guess work does not pay in any busi-
ness, and is turely the most hazardous when applied to the breeding of pure
bred livestock. With the proper care and attenUon, these cows will look bet-
ter by sale Ume, but they are in excellent condition now.
Any time it is possible for me to be of service to you, I am ready to
help you.
Yours very truly,
R. R. WALKER.
Agricultural Agent, For M. K. A T., W. F. A N. W. Ry.

guilty in city court last nighj for run-
ning an automobile without lights.
City Marshal John S. McKinney said
today that he was going to enforce
this ordinance and persons, if they
do not want to appear in court and
pay the fine, must be sure their
lights on their cars are ail burning be-
fore they travel the streets at night.
Running automobiles after dark with-
out lights is a very dangerous practice.
Pedestrians are in danger of being
run over and seriously, if not fatally,
injured. City Marshal McKinney says
further that the city speed limit ordi-
nance is being violated and he will
keep a close watch on this and those
•who deliberately make a speed way
of the paved streets and public square,
thereby endangering the lives of men,
women and children, may expect to be
dealt with by the strong arm of the
law.
Its Rather
Interesting
To observe the "ups and downs" in
the mercantile world. One day you
hear prices are up and going higher—
goods are Bcarce and hard to get at
any price and the next message is
"down, down." Well, we have been
tailoring a long time and our policy
today is the same as it was fifteen
years ago. SMALL profit LARGE
volume. One price to all—good service
and a square deal. How does that ap-
peal to you?

In the hardest fought game that
has been played this year, McKinney
defeated her old time rival, Denison.
Although outweighed by Denison, Mc-
Klnney's offensive play was too
strong for them to stop. The work of
Oran Kimbriel, Montgomery, Dickens,
and Cleveland In McKlnney's line, on
both the offensive and defensive, de-
serves especial mention. Hammond
at center played a good game, passing
the ball well and despite his size,
backing up the line on the defensive.
In the backfield Marley and Moses
were the principal ground gainers,
aided by the good Interference run by
Martin and White.
The game by plays Is as follows:

advanced 10 yards. Marley bucked
through Dickens for 0 yards. Moses

er-in-law, C. D. Ward of that city, Icessful t< v small gains. Moses went
back to McKinney, where he will around right end for 19 yards. White

Gainesville Texas, June 29, 1920.
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
It is with pleasure that I certify as to quality of Jerseys to be sold by
Mr. Apple at an auction sale October 28. I was afforded the opportunity of
examining these animals on June 26. I was shown six or eight mature cows
that will be consigned. These cows were of good type, and showed evidence
of high productive ability. I was Informed by Mr. Apple that their breeding
Is exceptionally good. From the manner from which they were being handled
I am sure that they will be in good condition on the sale date.
I was also particularly Impressed with the heifers ranging In age from
six months to twelve months, which are also to be consigned. These are well
grown, of good type und color, and showing remarkable udder development
for calves of this age.
I was also informed that there will be about ten or twelve of these
heifers to be consigned to tiiiu October sale.
I consider Mr. Apple a reputable breeder and one whose statements
can be depended upon as absolutely reliable.

HOG CHOLERA MONTHS
HERE; WATCH HERDS
the
hog
ap-
wiaw
October and November arc
months when the dread disease,
cholera, is most likely to
pear. Ittirlng those months
until hiiow covers tho ground i
raisers are urged by tho United Mtates
Department of Agriculture to be es-
pecially observing when feeding
hogo in the morning. Any animals in
the h *rd which fail to corne to tbelr
feed, and |Mirticularly those having
arched backs and rough coats, should
be removed promptly from the rest of
tho herd.
In some cases hogs sick with chol«
era die within a few days; in others
the disease may ils.hume a chronic
form and linger for several weeks. If
cholera is suspected swine growers
should immediately call u compete ^
veterinarian to make a proper diag-
nosis and to apply the preventive ser-
um treatment if they are found to be
affected with cholera. A post-mor-
tem examination of swine that have
died from cholera generally will showf
one or more of the following symp-
toms: Purple blotches on the skin;
blood-colored spots In the surfaces of
the lungs and hoart, on the kidneys,
and on both the outer surface and In-
ner linings of the Intestines, stomach,
and bladder; reddening of rymphatio
glands; enlargement of the spleen, in
acute cases; an ulceration of the inner
lining of the large Intestine.
In the lingering or chronic rsncs of
hog cholera It is usual to find Intes-
tinal button-like ulcers on the intes-
tines.
