AGAINST MALARIA
Early in August. 1921, a grade Holstein wa? received at the
Larro Research Farm, cr.J c>vrn Q number? 158.
In 270 days, which constituted her first milking period, she
prcducod 5,651.2 lbs. of milk.
In the fir^t 270 days of her next milking period she produced
10,643.3 lbs.
And in the first 270 days of h*T third milking period ahm
gavo LfrflO? .1 lbs.
Thinlcof it ? an increase of 130 % in milk production in "wo
years |t And during her first two year-, on the Larro Farm her
weigHPincrcased from 843 lbs. to 1226 lbs. ? or 45%.
There is real profit in such a cow a3 No. 158 is today. Yet it
docs not cdft much more to feed and maintain h;r now than
it did when her production was less than half what it is.
Tfoe important point to you is that many of your own cows
may ahow equally sctisfartory results with the same manage
ment and care ? plus Larro.
You can easily prove that Larro is a money -milker by trying
it on your nera ana keeping records 01 mute
produced per dollar spent for feed.

j AX Ol'TSTA.NDlSU SERVICE
The case is reported In the press
of a letter, written by a soldier dur
ing the Civil War, which was deliv
ered a few days ago to a relative of
the one to whom It was addressed.
Such instances are unusual. The
postofflce department functions with
great precision and provides splen
Jid service for the people.
The circumstance which * as giv
en widespread publicity, because it
was rare, might be contrasted with
ihe thousands and thousands of cases
where mail Is delivered promptly.
The postoffice department Is in re
ceipt of frequent letters commending
the mail service, but none quite equals
he record which a Utah woman re-,
porta. '
For ten years she has been main
taining a weekly correspondence with
her sister in England, and up to Au
gust 1 of this year, ealh woman had
written 520 letters to each otheer, not
one of which had been lost.
This record reveals a state of per
fection that Is seldom reached and
though It Is uncommon, It Indicates
that the postal service is very ef
ficient branch of the government.
During the holiday season It is
put to the supreme test and every
one who can do anything to relieve
(he burden will be performing a
worthwhile service. Nulling gifts
early Is one way In whlfc every per
son can help.

The Franklin Times has often car
ried short notices calling attention
to the value of advertising In this
paper but a recent experience of an
editor as reported by a paper In South
Dakota again shows that newspaper
advertising Is more effective than
that secured through the use of bill-,
boards. This experience as given by
the Division of publications of the
State College Extension Service Is as
fellows :
'An editor and a merchant were dis
cussing the virtue of billboard ad
vertising. The merchant contended
that more people read the billboard*
than the newspaper. After a lengthy
conversation In which neither man
would give In, the men parted.
/? The next week the merchant came
tearing down the street to the news
paper office wanting to know why
the obituary of his wife's mother was
yot In the paper, especially after he
had seen that a copy was taken to
the newspaper office.
I "Well," said the editor. " I know
to 0 wanted the obituary read by the
people, so I took It out aad nailed it
