It seems liardly possible that the .\iner- 
ican .lersey Cattle Club is 50 years idd. 
Yet on May 1 it cidebrated its K<dd('ii an¬ 
niversary. The club did a great business 
last year. A total of 44,8.87 .Jerseys w<‘re 
registered and .8.5,884 w(*re transferred, 
'riie club now shows .80.117 breeders of 
.ler.sey cattle and this is the largest num¬ 
ber of followers of any single dairy breed 
in .'Vmerica. There are 721 members of 
the club, with ajiplications for member¬ 
ship coming at the rate of nearly 100 per 
year 'I’he club has invi'sted .$2,5.000 of 
its surplus in Liberty Honds. It was 
brought out that foreign commissions are 
now in this country trying to obtain good 
live stock for building up the herds in 
Furojx* after the war. A committee of 
.lersey breedcu's was a|>pointed to sui»er- 
vise the sale of .Lu'sey cattle to the.se for¬ 
eign coinnii.ssions. .M. I). Miinn, of St. 
Paul. Minnesota, was re-elected firesident ;

.Not many cows for sale now. Farlier

\ large percentage of stock is already out 
to jiastiire and in jioor condition ; it <iix».s 
not look favorable for a large pnxluction 
of milk for this season. A nunilx‘r of 
farmers have their oat.s in and <*orn 
ground plowed. So far this Spring has 
been more favorable for farm work than 
last. _ 'There is i»ractically no help to he 
bad in this locality, and if there was the 
farmers could not afford the price of .$8.50 
per day for man and .$7 for team. K. l*. A.
