Type Of Beef Best Adap-' ted For Sale Or Show The ideal beef animal, either'' for the show or sale ring, is one |' that is thick, blocky, and reason-' ably close to the ground, with' sufficient scale for age. He should i be straight in his top, bottom, and side lines; carry an even width from end to end; and be close in the coupling. "There is no use wasting feed and time on off-type animals that will never make a favorable ap- j pearance, no matter how fat and well trained they may become.", says Leland Case, in charge of. Extension Animal Husbandry at State College. He points out that the head of the animal should be nicely proportioned, broad between the eyes and short from eyes to! muzzle, with sufficient width of muzzle to indicate good breeding qualities. The head should be ijpH-ai or rne Dreea ana snow marked sex characteristics. The neck should he short and thick, clean in the throat, and neatly joined to head and shoulders. The shoulders should be in j proportion to the rest of the body, neither too wide nor too j narrow, and smoothly blended into the body. The chest should be wide and full, and the heart girth I bioad and deep, giving sufficient room for the vital organs. The crops should be full, the ribs widely sprung, the loin thick and wide, and hips not prominent but neatly laid in. The rump should carry out straight, wide, and full, and the tail head smooth and level with the back line. The thighs should be wide, I deep, and full, and the twist deep.' The legs should be straight and set squarely at the four corners of the body, and the flanks, both | fore and rear, should be deep and full.

Carolina's born and raised 100th Infantry Division has recently entered combat at the1 southern end of the French front' alongside other organizations of Sixth Corps and Seventh Army in the Vosges Mountains, Headquarters at Seventh Army has announced. Residents ot DOtn South and North Carolina are intimate with the training and special activities in which the Century engaged: during the two years it was stationed at Fort Jackson, S. C., and Fort Bragg, N. C. The Division left Fort Bragg late in September to come to this combat area where it is now slugging its way through some of the toughest terrain on the western front. Receiving its baptism of fire in dense woods, steep hills, mud and cold, the Century already numbers thrf important towns of Raon L'Etape, St. Remy, Thiaville, Le Neuveville, and Moyenmoutier on its list of captured cities. America's 100th Division first became known in Columbia, S. C., where the Century was activated at Fort Jackson, on November 15, 1642. At formal ceremonies division commander Maj. Gen. Withers A. Burress, of Richmond, Va.j accepted the organization's colors, while Gen. William H. Simpson, then XII Corps commander and now heading the Nlnthe Army, called on the 100th for "success in battle." Shortly thereafter, brand-new citizen-soldiers-to-be flowed into the division from the entire eastern seaboard, and training began on Jackson's sandy terrain. Following the patter of combat preparation prescribed by the War Department, the Messrs. Jones began the process of conversion to Pvts. Jones under the tutelage of Regular Army, Candidate School, and Reserve officers, plus the cadrenucleus of non-commissioned officers from the 76th Division. High-lighting the special activities while at Fort Jackson was the lOOth's participation in the Columbia All-Servicemen Baseball League, the first held in the city and one of the few in the country. At the conclusion of the sixteam circuit, the 100th placed second only to the strong Shaw Field team, while nosing out its persistent neighbor-rival, the 106th j Division. Among a host of other doings wedged between heavy training at Jackson, the 100th also found time to stage and present "The Eve of St. Mark," Maxwell An; derson's hit play of the current war. Put on first at Jackson, it also was staged twice in Columbia's Town Theatre. In November of 1943, the Century left the Carolinas for two months maneuver in Tennessee, but returned to their southern area home in early January when the organization moved into Fort Bragg, N. C. While continuing its training there, the 100th was called upon to demonstrate on a number of occasions the action of a regimental combat team in attack as important guests observed. Among those seeing the liveammunition wintirgeah ET ET ammunition withering assault, now in demonstration under oth er observation, were Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson; Undersecretary of War Robert P. Patterson; Assistant Secretary of War John J. McCloy; publishers and editors of leading American news periodicals; and, members eggs, compared with 50,995,000 set during the first 10 months of last year.

Leading cotton manufacturers from all over North Carolina also saw the 100th in this combined attack late last summer when industry chiefs became "soldiersfor-a-day" during a three day visit of the 100th. North Caroninians witneissed the Century in formation during the week of June 15 When the nation's first Infantry Day was celebrated and the Fifth War Loan Drive launched. While a composite Infantry batt&lion was in New York City marching on the same day, units of the 100th marched in Fayetteville, Wilson and Clinton.
