The statement covers an area embracing approximately one-eighth of the state in this section and is believed, to hold true for the county proper, "ft A 6.4 per cent gain in the number of dairy cows two years old and over is noted for the district over the preceding year, while the increase for the state as a whole was 6.4 per cent as compare with 1923.' The entire United States shows an increase amounting to six per cent, government figures show. The n tmber of heifers one to two years old as compared to the tota' number of cows in this district seem to be below the average, indicating the intention to bring less young stock into milk in the near future. In citing these figures the iostitute calls attention to the fact that the United States nees 320 000 more cows every year if production is to keep step with the normal growth of demand for dairy products. There are 1,412,000 more mouths to be fed in the United States needs 320,000 more cows and with the increased consumption of cla ry products per capita, this added number to the nation's herd will barely suffice to meet the increased demand.

This will be the first time that the chief executive of the United States has attended the "international," the >pen ng ot congress having always interferred, but the importance of this quarter centennial event is'deemed by Pres dent Coolidge .to be sufficient to justify his absence from the capitol for a short period. Congress had previous.y iecogn!zed the unasua*ness of the occasion by authorizing, at its last session, the issuance of official medals to be awarded by the United States department of agriculture to the principal winners in the live stock competitions at the coming show. The h.story making character of the tiventy-tifth anniversary is further emphasized by the fact that seven foieign judges from three cont.ntnta will assist in designating the Victors. Canadian exh bits will be out in full lorce, headed by a herd of prize winning Shorthorn cattle from the Prince of Wales' Alberta rapch, and entries from the agricultural colleges and experiment stations of the dominioh As an a ided incentive for Canadians to compete in the grain and hay show classes, the provincial governments ate offei .ng cash bonuses to their fanners who are successful in the various contests. Spurred on by the challenge of ratside competition and the toitikual op-1 portun'ty to enjoy the honor of receiving official recognition from'the president and congress, stockmen and farmers of the United States are putting the finishing touches on their finest cattle, horses, sheep and swine ball game at South Bend last Saturday' and selecting their choicest samples of afternoon.
