Tl fine old Oolontal mansion (the
Craigte house) In Cambridge, Mass.,
(now widely known as the home of
Henry W. Iagfellow), was the place
where Washington spent hls first
Christmas as commander of the Rev-
olutionary army In 1775. Mrs. Wash-
ington was there with him (as she was
later at Valley Forge), and there was
some pleasure in the midst of the
heavy cares and respoaslbllltles car-
tied by the great Washington.
A year later Christmas day found
Washington at the head of his 2.400
brave men making his celebrated
crossing of the Delaware river, nine
miles above Trenton. The snow and
sleet were blinding, it is recorded, and
the cold was Intense. But learts
were brave.
Wherever he was at Chrlstmaslide,
Washington was cheered with the
thought that the cause of the strug-
gling colonies would surely win. A
few days hefore Christnias. 1776, he
wrote to his older brother. John Au-
gustine Washington: "Between you
and me, our affairs are in a very bad
situation. However. under s
full persuasion of the Justice of our
cause. I cannot entertain an idea that
It will finally sink, though it may re-
main for some time under a cloud."
Washington must have had some
very mrry CRrisfmases at Mount Ver-
non. There were no children of his
own with whom Whlngon could
romp. But we can easily Imagine
the big-hearted general putting on a
false beard of fuzzy white whlsker
and slinging a pack ov, hl bask for
the delight of the little ones In the
neighborhood.
General Washington was truly the
"Father of His Country," ad we hav
a very good idea of the mort of holiday
spirit in which he observed the "glad
Christmastide" when our republic was
in its infancy.
No one in all our bright history as
a nation has handed down a more ra.

A PUREBRED BULL PROVES HIS
WORTH,
(By Don Magruder, Dairy Extension
Specialist and F. W. Kehrii, As-
sistant Dairy Specialist).
The value of a high class purebred
dairy bull is well shown by the rec-
ords of one' of tle good grade dairy
herds of the state. The records of
this herd are used for showing the
value of .a high class pure bred bull
because records are availerble on a
good number of daughters and their
dams and because they were made
under practically identical conditions
of care and feed.
The records of 10 daughters for
ofle year, ealculated to mature age
so as to be comparable to those of
their dams show that their average
production of butterfat for a year
was 447 lbs, while that of their dams
was 316 lbs. of butterfat, so the av-
erage production of the daughters
was 131 lbs. of butterfat more than
that of their dams.
This increased production of the
daughters over the dams is not at all
phenomenal, but iss uch as can be
expected in any average herd from
daughters sired by a hlgh class
pure bred bull. Teh average produc-
tion of the daughters of 447 lbs. of
butterfat was about what could be
expected of a bull whose dam had an
official record of 444 lbs. of butterfat
and whose sire had three daughters
which had official records averaging
530 lbs. of b0tterfat, and ,whose dam
had an official record of 509 Ibs. of
butterfat.
" A much larger increase in pro-
duction of daughters of such a bull
over that of their dams can be ex-
pected in ordinary herds, many of
which have an average annual pro-
duction of much less than 316 lbs.
of butterfat. The four lowest pro-
ducing dams of this herd with the
same 'care and kind of feed that the
other cows received, averaged 234
Ibs. of butterfat while their four
daughters averaged 423 lbs., which
was an average increase of daughter
over dam of 189 lbs. of butterfat•
Though the ten daughters aver-
aged 131 lbs. of butterfat more than
their clams, they received the same
care and kind of feed. However, we
know that every pound of butterfat
requires almost eight lbs. of digest-
ible nutrients to produce it. If we
consider that this 181 lbs. of butter:
fat was produced with nutrients from
concentrates alone, about 1,500
pounds of concentrates having.a nut i
tritive ratio of 1 to 5 would De re-
l
quired to produce it, Under average
can own several high class bulls so
they can be kept to old age without
the necessity of using a bull on his
own daughters. However, rather
than dispose of a high class, pure
bredb ull to the butcher it is general-
ly advisable to use him on his first
daughters if they show no signs of
weakness.
