CATTLE CAN BE
BUILT UP CHEAP
State Report Shows Ex
cellent Results Have Reen
Attained by the State
Six months of feeding of 20 head
of cattle on the farm of the Penn
sylvania Department of Agriculture
In Delaware county has resulted in
a profit of $24.48 per head. This
shows that cattle can be fed at a pro
fit in this State at the present price
of feed.
Agricultural leaders of the State
have been urging more attention to
livestock on the farms and the re
sult obtained on the State farm as
announced by Secretary of Agricul
ture. Charles E. Patton shows the
profit that can be made in this line
of agriculture. •
The twenty head of cattle were
purchased last October for sl,l 18.80
and placed on farm where the State
Livestock Sanitary Board makes its
cattle disease serums and conducts
experiments that will help to keep
the livestock of the farmers of the
State free from disease epidemics.
Under the direction- of Secretary
Patton the twenty head of cattle
were sold last week through competi
tive bidding and $2,320 was realized,
an increase of $1,203.20 over the pur
chase price. The cost of feeding and
labor for the six months was $829.50
as follows; 25u bushels of shelled
corn at $1.15 a bushel, $287.50; 75
tons of poor ensilage at $3, $225;
7 tons of alfalfa hay at sl2 a ton,
$84;; 3 tons cottonseed meal, $143
and labor, part time of one man at
sls a month, S9O. During the feed
ing period 116 wagon loads of man
ure was realized and a conservative
value of one dollar a load placed on
it. This made a total cost of $1,946.-
30 for the purchase, feed and care of
the cattle during the six months and
the amount realized was $2,320 from
the sale of cattle and sll6 from the
manure, or $2,436, making a profit
of $489.70.

Washington, D. C., May 21. The

aboard the Vacuum, torpedoed April
2S, and by Mrs. Hannah Hallberg. of
Jamestown, N. Y., mother of Frank C.
Hallberg. of fnmpany K. Seventy

The latter petition declares #Hall

MARCH IN PARADE
Half of Marchers in Long Line Were Steelworkers;
Schoolchildren, Foreign Born and Red Cross Have
Big Delegations in Line
Thousands of men, women and
children participated in Steelton's
patriotic demonstration Saturday

graph in the borough's history.
Marching to the strains of thirty
two bands, over 10,000 people from
Steelton, Harrisburg and surround
ing towns, all had one purpose in
mind and that was loyalty to the
flag.
Thousands of the foreign-born
population were applauded by the
spectators that lined the streets all !
along the route of the parade. These i
foreigners refused to carry the flag !
of their country and united with the
Americans under the Stars and
Stripes.
Drills Win Applause
A lesson of patriotism was taught
by several small groups of school
children. These small tots dressed
in white uniforms, carried a flag and
marched the entire route of the pa
rade. The schoolchildren made up
an entire division. Girls of the high
school in rows of six each, in charge
of a student lead of, the school di
vision. The boys of the high school
were neit in line and the various
school bodies representing the build
ing followed. Members of the fac
ulties of each building had charge.
Each building tried hard to out
class the other in maneuvering dur
j ing the procession. The drilling ex-
I hibitions were given mostly in Front
I street and won the applause of the
! spectators.
Well Drilled
j One of the most attractive and
well-drilled organizations in the pa
j rade was the boys' company formed
| in the Junior Holy Name Society of
I St. James' Catholic Church, under
the direction of the Rev. J. C.
i Thompson. The boys have been
drilled by Trooper Daniel C. Crowley,
I a member of the Governor's Troop.
I of Harrisburg, and gave evidence in
! their marching of the thoroughness
of their training. The boys appeared
in new khaki uniforms and made a
fine appearance. They attracted B:en
eral attention and were frequently
j applauded along the line.
Efforts of the Steelton Red Cross
| Society to have a large uniformed
I number in line proved successful.
I More than 300 women attired in
white gowns and capp together with
I fifty women from Harrisburg made
I up the Red Cross section.
5.000 St col workers in Eine

jup half of the parade. There were
I about 5,000 steelworkers in line.

others patriotic hats and nearly all
carried flags. The steel sections in
'tliis division were in charge of the
department superintendents.
The parade moved from Front and
Franklin streets shortly after 2
o'clock. The procession moved with
! out any unnecessary delay showing
the care taken by the committee in
the weeks of planning.
! A squad of Bethlehem Steel Com

rade uniforms and nearly everv fire
fighter carried an American flag.

ner for the army of 3,000 performers
and workers and the feeding of the
horses. The show covers live blocks
and is without question the largest
that has ever exhibited in Harris
burg.
Many unique and interesting fea
tures were shown. A troup of
trumpeters and mounted heralds
headed the procession, followed by
a military band a number of
chariots of allegorical signilicanca
highly embellished in golden bas re
lief. A body of knights in tourna
ment array, mounted upon richly
capai isoned horses, followed. The
second division, led by a band
chariot, consisted of an equestrian
display remarkable for the attrac
tive character of the horses. Four
herds of elephants were followed by
ten tandem teams of great beauty,
driven by smartly gowned eques
triennes.
Mounted Band
A feature entirely new and rarely
seen except in unusually significant
military parades was the mounted
band of some thirty musicians on
gray Uorses. Roman racing chariots
drawn by eight prancing steeds; a
number of allegorical tloals, open
cages, containing lions, tigers, and
other wild animals, completed the.
third division.
Tents Fill ICarly
The fotirth division consisted of
a military band, many elaborately
decorated floats, several open cages
of wild animals, performing Shet
land ponies'ond many other interest
ing features.
An immense gathering filled the
great tents to witness the afternoon
performance. Elephants danced,
clowns cut merry capers and the
hearty laugh of childhood resounded
through the vast arena where fully
14,000 happy mothers, fathers,
brothers and sisters kept the little
ones company.
Opens With Pageant
The performance opened with an
impressive grand pageant a veritable
tournament of gorgeously costumed
people and richly accoutred horses
and elephants, in all the glittering
splendor of an oriental holiday. The
pageant entitled "Aladdin and His
Wonderful Lamp" told in panto
mimic action the fairy legend of
the magic lamp.
Following this pageant twenty odd
elephants leaped into the three
rings, they waltzed, walked on their
hind legs, formed majestic pyramids,
interlocked trunks in fanciful com
binations and played renl music
upon brass wind instruments.
Many Bal>y Animals
A shriek of childish glee welcom
ed the regiment of clowns which
broke into the hippodrome oval, as
the elephants swung their unwieldy
bodies back to the menagerie. The
reign of joy continued until the acro
batic specialties began, when every
one held his breath at the daring
performers who did impossible things
on flimsy 'trapezes and bars high in
the air. Giants, midgets, fat wo
men, wild men, and a hundred in
teresting freaks make up the great
est side show ever seen.
The little, folks went into ecstacies
over the kitten-like ways of the baby
animals in the zoo kindergarten.
! The last performance will be given
to-night at 8 o'clock, doors opening
at 7 o'clock.

I tooth paste,
keeps teeth clean AND GUMS HEALTHY.
Keeping the gums healthy and the mouth sweet is very important to
health; more teeth are lost through the loosening of the tissue that holds the
teeth in place than from decay.
Dental science to-day demands that a tooth paste must keep the gums
healthy as well as cioan the teeth.
Senreco was formulated to meet this requirement. Hundreds of den
tists are prescribing and using because they have found that it does
measure up to that standard.
SENRECO IS A WONDERFUL CLEANSER.
In addition to Its remedial properties Senreco is a wonderful cleanser;
acts directly on the mucin film, the basis of tartar; leaves the mouth cool
and clean-feeling. As some one has expressed it—Senreco gives one a new
idea on mouth cleanliness.
Get a tube to-day at your druggists or toilet counter—enjoy the healthy,
cleanly feeling its use gives your mouth and gums. Notice how brilliantly
white Senreco makes your teeth. It performs this two-fold service for you
and yet costs no more than the ordinary, old-fashioned tooth paste that
simply cleans the teeth and leaves a pleasant taste—2s cents for a large
I ounce tube.
