THIS COW A WORLD REATEIt.
AII Pad Records In Butter making
Nurpaaaed by Her.
New VoraSun.
A cow owned by H. D. Roe, of Sus
sex county, N. J., has just sprung into
fame as having surpassed the world's
butter record. The figures are official,
for they were kept by the New Jersey
1 agricultural experiment station.
This cow has just had her picture
printed in the American Agriculturist.
She is registered as No. 4S42G in the
Hoiaiein-Frieaisn family and carries '
around with her the formidable nUa thfi.&jX&U3Bajkffie men that
oi Aggie cornucopia raullae.
In 30 days, beginning with February
20 last, rauline yielded 2,040.25 pounds
of milk. As a gallon of milk weighs
about 8 iounds, her product in 30 days
was 330 gallons, or 11 gallons a day.
Any one who has seen the milk-pail
results of the night and morning milk
ing of the average cow knows that this
yield is Bimply enormous.
The Holstein-Frieeian stock are very
remarkable milkers, and their average
yield is from five to seven gallons a
day ; but Pauline has doubled the yield
of the good registered Holstcin Friesian
cow and has surpassed by one-third
the record of most of the superior
animals.
The butter product for 28 days, or
four weeks, waa 129.901 pound, or an
average of 32 pounds a weeks. This
was a mid winter record, but probably
the Beason made no difference in the
yield, for Pauline had the test cow
feed that money could buy, and every
possible care.
But the result is none the less as
tonishing. At this rate, the cow would
produce in the 52 weeks of the year
1,703 pounds of butter, or from 300 to
400 pounds more than she weighs.
When she is in milking condition her
weight i9 between 1,300 and l,4i0
pounuV
The beet previous butter record was
made over a year ago by a cow in
Oneida county that produced 30 s
pounds in seven days.
Pauline has a prodigious capacity for
food, but she is excusable when she
turns so much of it into milk. During
the last two weeks of the test she con
sumed daily from 10 to 4. pounds of
pounds of clover hay and S pounds of
peas and oafs hay, besides 31 pounds
- -
of wheat bran, cream gluten, hominy
meal and ajax flakes.
She would be expensive to board if
she did not do so much for her keep.
Bat after all, she was producing milk
and butter at a relatively low coet. The
coat of producing milk was only 1.4
cents a quart and of butter 13 5 cents a
pound. These figures, however, do not
include the cost of labor.
Beauty and utility are finely blended
in Pauline, for her picture shows that
she is one of the handsomest animals
of her breed. She is a native of New
Jersey, but comes of one of the most
famous families of Holstein-Frieeians
in the Netherlands.
She is the mother of an interesting
family, comprising two sons and two
daughters. Milk is only one of the
products that made Pauline a very valu
able asset, for her oldest son waa sold
for $3,000, her youngest daughter, two
and a half months old, for $1,000,
anc1 the present owners of her sec
ond son have recently refused $3,500
for him.
Thus the income from Pauline, over
and above her living expenses, is very
substantial.
All this shows the possibilities of
breeding. It is supposed that all our
cattle had a common origin in the wild
cattle that existed in the ancient forests
,of Europe, and that the wonderful im
provements that have been made in
those ancient small, rough and rugged
cattle are the result of artificial treat
ment by man, the work of Bkillful
breeders who had definite objects in
view.
They develop', d the races that are
famous, some for fattening qualities,
and others for milk, and the tetter
grades of cattle in our country have
had the advantage of the finest skill of
Europe and America in this line.

THE STORY OF S II U N GOPA V I .
The Wwiider Working "Jledtclne
TOan" Among Ihe C'llflT Dwellers
at the Worlds Pair.
Ralph Waldo Emerson says that an
institution is only the elongated shadow
of one man. The World's Fair at St
Louis, now the greatest exhibition ofpen there is little EJdo except wait
human progress the world has ever seen
or is likely to see again in a century, is
also the reflex of its organizers and by
the same tqken it may be said that the
several exhibitions, large and small of
whatever they tell are the fyiaible t!utwi;
Drought mem into being
. The World's Fair at St. Louis is
particularly rich in its display of the
peoples of strange and out of-the-way
regions. This so-called anthropological
department shows excellence in variety
as well as in extent. For Americans
none of these divisions has more inter
est than the one in which the modes of
life of the American Indians are ex
hibited by a collection of the leading
groups of human beings that originally
occupied the soil of what is now the
United States. The Indian as they are
familiary known exist in the public
mind largely in the guise of Bavages or
semi-savages. When we epeak of In
dians we conjure up visions of atrocities
of the Apaches, the Sioux, the Coman
ches, the Nez Peroez and the like and
deadly struggles 16 which these until
very recently engaged with the white
settlers of tht west. Tradition romance
and history are full of deeds the moBt
daring regarding the encounters, awful
and sanguinary that preceded the now
no longer disputed occupancy of the
North American territory by the white
men.
But the World's Fair now teaches
another lesson and it gives us iD the
person of one strange man another
record. Hundreds of years before the
white man came, long previous to the
time that Anglo-Saxon land hunger
showed itself on this continent, there
lived in the Canyons of the Co Lor ad a
River in what is now Arizona and New
Mexico a rare race of people known as
the Cliff Dwellers. Whence they came
no man can tell. Only their descend
ants today, the Mokis, Zunh and
Pueblos have tradition of their fore-
ftSnro nj bov foil ji j t V" Vor''''
rairTfiltfepar the
Cliff Dwellers that their anceetors were
a peaceful race, that they worshipped
the sun and that their priests claimed
miraculous knowledge concerning the
powers of the earth, the air. They tell
us further that that power is transmit
ted by their priests, or medicine men,
.... . .,1
as we can tnem irom one to me omer
and thus has been handed down unim-
naired from earliest times. The Cliff
Dwellers have amone them a wonder-
worker named Shuneopavi, a myster-

GLENN SAYS NO WHITE MAN ( AS
VOTE FOR ROOSEVELT.
Hon. R. B. Glenn, Democratic nomi
nee for Governor, made a speech nt
Pittsboro last week. The Fittsboro
correspondent of the Raleigh Fust gives
the following account of it:'
"He began by saying that this was
his first visit to Pitteboro, but in the
future he assurred us that we would see
him often. He said as to the attack4l
that had been made on him about
representing the Southern Railway,
that it waa true that he had been the
attorney for that road for niueteen
years and that during that time they
had never asked him to do anything
that a gentleman and a Democrat
could not do, but that when he took his
seat as governor that he would resign
the attorneyship and would try to repre
sent the whole people and would be the
agent of no man or corporation.
"He discussed at length the tariff
and insisted that we should have tariff
for revenue only. He said in regard
to the recent labor troubles, that if he
had a hobby while governor it would be
to bringcapital and laborcloser together.
He would invite capitalists to the State,
but they would have to come in to
build it up, not to tear it down. He
spoke of the extravagance of the nation
and of the recent postal scandals He
said that there were three kind of men
that would not vote for Roosevelt 1st,
the old Confederate soldier; Jd, the
southern man ; ;.!, the white man. He
showed why no one of these three could-1
vote for Roosevelt, nnd then paid 4
wauuiui intuite to rarker. lie savft.
he has traveled a good ileal and that
every one say? that the Christian gen
tleman, Judge Alton B Parker, will be
our next president.
"He said as to himself, that he will
be elected by the biggest majority ever
given any governor in North Carolina.
He compared Aycock's administration
with Russell's, and said that Ajcock
would go down iu history as oue of
North Carolina's educational governor?.
He wound up by explaining why the
Democrats were in favor of the Watts
law, aud said that he was proud of it.
"His speech was declared by all to be
one of the greatest ever delivered in
Chatham."
Charlotte Chronicle.
The farmers of Cabarrus nre to have
a rrfat ojlliprinf at l'tiii'mr Tfiit nt-xt
" b' b ft i
week, the character of which is ex
plained in a note to editor of The Chron
icle by Mr. John A. Sims, the sec
retary. Mr. Sims says:
"This is requested that you return to
your native county and be present at
what we hope will become an annual
backet picnic by the farmers of Cabar
rus to be held this year at Poplar Tent,
Thursday August l25:h.
"The only condition being, that if
possible, you furnish us with a copy of
the poetry on one of the Poplar Tent
fairs, writen by Mr. S. L. Dixon, of
Mooreeville, in which 'The Chief At
tractions of the day were Martin's bull
aud J. M. Gray.' "
"This promises to be the largest pic
nic ever held in our county, and in
some respects takef on the form of a
Farmers' Ineitute. Prominent speak
ers have already consented to be there,
and others are still to be heard from."
Sure, this does recall the day of the
great Poplar Tent Fair, made famous
by the board of Iredell. If we cannot
get a copy we will try aud persuade the
editor of The Observer to dicate it to
his stenographer he knows it, evtry
line. AVe wish the promoters of this
meeting every possible success. These
annual gatherings of the farmers are
delightful affairs in every way and
productive cf much good. Mecklen-
may l3 counted on to held out on this
occasion by sending a large delegation
of people.
