WASHINGTON, Oct. 8 The defi-
mition of the term “purebred sires” number of bushels of corn to make
is written in the word "economy.
There are many definitions, many ot
them learned and long,' that might
be written, but the breeding
perts of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture when they met
this morning to launch the State and
National crusade for “Better .Sires
—Better Stock” agreed that the pri
mary meaning of it is economy.

200 pounds of pork. The purebred
or high-grade hog takes the same
number of bushels of corn and
makes three hundred pounds of pork,
phe 'pui’ebrcd or high-grade cow
makes three gallons of milk oat of
the same quantity of silage that the
scrub cow uses to make a gallon
and a half of milk. These figures
re not meant to scientifically exact,
*f course, but merely to ilustrate the
principle. The rcsnlt is that the
armer gets more ponnds of salable
I roduct out of bis feed when he uses
purebred sires at the head of his
I eads and flocks. He gets more
money and his family lives better.
But something else happens. When
Ie sells more pounds of a better class
Iff meat or more gallons of rich milk,
ho feeds the city family better than
e did when he kept scrub stock
The final result of purebred sires is
hat the farmer makes more money
nd city family gets more and better
ood, probably at lower prices.
The crusade, the experts say, even-
ually will tend to result in reducing
he cost of living to the consumer
dthOut taking the difference out of
he pocket of the producer. For that
eason, they point out, the man has
definite, money interest in the bet
ter sires crusade. While Jhe can
hardly bo expected to put the same
amount of effort into it that the live
stock breeder should, he is expected
to give encouragement and aid to
he program whenever the opportuni
ty offers. And there will be no lack
of opportnity, particularly in the
fmailer cities hnd towns where the
farmers are in close contact with the
city business men.
PACHYDERMS
PLAY BALL IN
SPARKS SHOWS
Of the many stunts performed by
the Sparks Circus herd of elephants
the one that probably gets the most
appreciation ia the game of baseball
>byed by these mighty and unwicld-
y pachyderms. Every play is gone
through with in the most ludicrous
manner, and the laughs furnished by
this number will remain a pleasant
remembrance of tho circus.
’All the accessories—pitcher, bat
ter, catcher, umpire, fielders and their
gloves, masks, bats and uniforms—
are present, and “Big Mary” in the
roll of batter seldom misses a home^
run swat, and has thus established pwwyywysrsrwwawwwwg^w^
a .400 mark batting record for her-
self. Running the bases and the slide
to home plate never fail to bring
forth rounds of applause and laughter
from the ijudienco. Another fun
ny situation is when tho pitcher has
two strikes on “Big Mary,” he and
tho catcher get in an animated argu-
nent over to tho next ball to bo served
by tho pitcher and trumpet into each
other’s ears. This little pieco of by
play always meets with tho instant
approval of tho audienco and adds
greatly to tho already funny num
ber. This act was presented to Now
York City's delighted millions last
winter and camo in for more favor
able newspaper comments than any
animal act doen there in recent years.
This feature is positively on the pro
gram of the Sparks World Famous
Shows, which are billed to exhibit
here Monday, October 13, afternoon
and night.
