Gun Power at Waterloo.
As to gun power at the time of Wa
terloo, two facts of guidance: The
-British drill sergeants of the day
taught recruits to bold their fire "until
they could see the whites of the eyes
of tile enemy." That would make tbc
host musketry range. I should say
about twenty-five yards. "Brown Bess’
was tint of much use beyond sixty
yards, judging by all the evidence. A*
to big ideoes, then, as now. naval guns
were superior to field artillery, aud
Nelson -loved to get In his broadsides
at sixty yards! 1 believe that OOC
yards was counted the limit of effee
tiro navHl gun fire then. Field artil-
lery range would be less, probably
much less. The enormous increase In
the effective range, of guns since le
due, first, to explosives with greatei
power and more containable power
second, the invention-mi rifled barrels
and brd'chloniUug. and. third, strongei
alloys of metals.—Frank Fox In Lon-
don Nation.
Public Elopements.
The Bulgarian is fierbaps the most

ant in Europe, hud. paradoxical as it
may appear, ids standard of morality
is extremely high, although elopements
are more numerous than in any otbet
country But these are generally in-
nocent affairs, being simply the device
if young ciniphvs Jo get married with-
out the e\|>eiiS0 a regular Bulgarian
wedding entails, in most cases not
inly is the consent of both parents ob-
tained. tmt aU friends are informed
and assemble outside the bride's bouse
to witness the elopemep*.

POINTS TO NOTE IN
SELECTING A COW
The dairy cow mast be studied from
the point of view of her development
around four centers-first, the milk
producing center, trihlcatcd by the de-
velopment of the udder, the milk veins
and the> milk wells; second, the diges-
tive center a- found lii the barrel or
body “of the cow; third, the respiratory
and circulatory center, located in the
cheat, and, fourth, the nervous center
as manifested In the development of
head and back and In the general lean
appearance of the animal.
In the development of these centers
the tendency la for the animal to be
larger In the rear half of the body.

SundriV school yesterday at North
Park Baptist church was well at-
tended. There was no preaching
service in the morning on account of
the opening of the new' Fi$st Bap-

vice there was one conversion and
three additions. Something near
three hundred dollars was sub-
scribed for the new addition to the
church.
At the services yesterday in St.
Stephen’s church it was announced
that the Lenten services this week
would be as follows: Monday,
Tuesday, Thursday and Friday at

of service at night there would be
an afternoon service at 4 o'clock
when Bishop Garrett will be present

Persistency In milk production Is
a marked characteristic of the Red
Poll cows. In this respect few
breeds will excel them. Persistence
is used In tha sense of making high
yields for successive years. Somo
cows make a very high record for
one or two years and then fall off
rapidly in their yields. It Is not
thus with Red Polls. In England
Red Polled cattle produce both
meat and milk. In America tha
dual purpose idea has been largely
lost sight of In many herds.

HOREHOUND SYRUP Is a healing
« Value of Feed and Cara.
The effect of feed nnd care on the
dairy cow was well brought out at the
New Salem (N. D.) dairy school. The
fouryear-old record of twelve cows
was given. The butter fat production
averaged 116 pounds tn tile first year,
196 tbe secoud, 214 the third and In
1913 239 pounds. The production was
more than doubled In the four years.
The cows were three to air years old
when tbe records were started. The
milk was weighed from each milking
and tested each month. This very em-
phatically brings out the fact that to
secure good production the cow alone
cannot do It—she must have the feed
and the care.
AUSTIN COLLEGE NEWS.
Society Be bote Satnrdav Night—
Judge Corley to Speak Here.
Saturday night In Grand Avenue
Presbyterian rhprrh the Thompson
Literary Soci-ty of Austin College
gave an excellent program before
very appreciative audience. This
was the first public meeting held by
the Tbonyjson society during the
present year., but It was generally
thought to bn one of the best held by
any of the societies.
An important number of the pro-
gram was a debate on the question
Resolved: that the United States
whould gradually increase her navy
until It is equal that of any other
nation
Speaking on the affirmative, J. L,
Dickson first made the point that
the nation lias not a navy large
enough to protect Its coasts. He
compared the unpreparedhess'of tha
United States, particularly as to its
civilians with Great Britain, and held
up the possibilities of war with Japan
and of being drawn into the Euro-
pean war. The speaker declared
that the affirmative advocated the
increase not for aggression by tho
United States, but for defense of
home and commerce and the pro-
tection of western civilisation.
M. C. Hull opened for tho nega-
tive. He declared that it Is im
probable that the United States will
go to war with its 27 arbitration
treaties with various nations. Since
we furnish our own food supplies,
support our own industries, need no
allies transported, any wax_jnust.be
for defense only, and we should in
crease tjle navy only to satisfy our
needs. Quoting Dr. J. A. MacDon-
ald he said that in the present war
Europe got what they prepared for
and reviewed the hundred years'
peace between the United States
and Great Britain, making the
point that while there Is no proba
bility of w^r with Britain, following
he affirmative’s proposition the
United States would have to excel
her in naval strength.
TI10 second affirmative speaker
was H. P. Rainey. He pointed- out
the present disaster of Germany due
to her weakness along naval lines.
If the United States is to lead in
commerce it must lead in foreign
trade. It lacks the merchant marine
to do so. Present needs and con-
ditions demand a greater merchant
marine and a navy adequate to pro-
tect It. The naval increase is need-
ed also for defense. The speaker
quoted Admiral Mahan to the ef-
fect that the United States can n<F
protect the region over which she
exercises the Monroe Doctrine, and
that large navies back up negotia-
tions.
Q. S. Scow for the negative
argued, from camparison of our
naval equipment with tffat of foreign
countries, that the present rate of
increase, is sufficient, dwelling upon
the importance of our submarines,
torpedoes and-the Panama Canal as
dfiLensixe agencies. He said that
kfter the present war the European
strength
to undertake an invasion of the
United States.
Mr. Dickson replied for the af
firniative. The judges. Dr. E. R.
Long^M’rof.. R. E. MaeKey~and J. G.
Anderson, decided two to one in
favor of the negative sid£, and
unanimously that, in the order given
H. P, Rainey and M. 0. Hull were
the best speakers.
The program: Invocation,' Rev.
H. H. Munroe; Address by presi-
dent, H. S. Crain: Violin Solo, Miss
Sanders; Medley, F. A. Sneed; De-
bate: Vocal Solo, Miss Meadow;
Declamation, K. H. Rose.
being broader and deeper than In tbe
fore quarters and a strong develop- (^nations w ill not have the
ment In the lower half of the body.
Therefore look for the development
which appears light in front and deep
and broad behind. This development
assures the largest capacity for tbe
consumption and utilization of ieeti
and for the production of milk. In or-
der to secure this type of body there
must be a large development of tbe ud-
der, being carried up high behind and
well forward, ^tvith a rounding out
and even development of all four qtiar
ters. The teats should be placed at
the corners of a Square on the bottom
of the udder. There ,should be a mel-
lowness and elasticity of tbe skin that
covers tbe udder, and when the udder
Is milked out it should not retain its
shai>e, but appear almost as folds of
skin. The milk veins should be large,
long and very crooked.
In tbe development of the body a
straight, strong back with a broad loin
and ribs that are long and well sprung
are desired, because they form a great,
roomy barrel. The pump should be
long, broad and level and mere or
less angular. The principal impres-
sion given by a well developed body
Is that of great capacity. The animal
should be falrty deep dowu through
the shoulders and broad between the
front legs and just back of them, giv-
ing plenty of room for the heart and
lungs. There should be a geuerai mel-
lowness nnd looseness to the sktn and
a lean condition of the anluial. A
smoothness of body secured by a tend-
ency to put on fat while giving milk is
undesirable.
The religious meeting committee
0/ the Austin College Y. M. C. A.
of which C, A. Brewer is chairman,
announces that on Tuesday evening
Judge Quentin I>. Corley of DaHa.s
will speak in the collegq Y. M. C. A,
gymnasium on "Overcoming Diffi-
culties." Judge Corley began the
study of law in Dallas sopie years
ago, although largely lurapicitated
by the loss of both arms, and has
not only attained eminence In his
profession, having been elected to
tk^ position of county judge, but
nas also perfected Inventions of false
arms and hands with which he does
a marvelous variety of things.
Judge Corley has also been influ-
ential as a leader in the vork of the
Boy Scouts, and the stato reforma-
tories.
For the convenience of those down
town who may wish to heat Mr.
Corley, as many have expressed de-
sire to do, the meeting hour witl
be—chauged to 7 o'clock,
Methods of Milking.
In regard to the best methods of
milking a cow we are of the opinion
that the manner in which the cow is
handled has more to do with her milk
flow than the order in which tbe teats
are milked. Most milkers milk either
tbc hind or fore teats together, al-
though there nre Instances where good
milkers prefer to milk one hind nnd
one fore teat at the same time. As
suggested before, we are of the opinion
that kind treatment tn the manner of
handling the cow nnd caring for her
Wanta Is more essential than whether
the cows' for# twits are milked flrit
or not—Hoard’s Dairyman.
