as
was shown by the official decisions.
The Washtenaw team Of three boys
was recognized* as the state' [Champion in dairy judging. There were
seven team entries in the* contest;
representing various sections of the
state. Hugh Austin of Saline, a member of the Washtenaw team., was accorded the "distinction of being the
State individual champion among the
Judges in dairying. His teammates
jwe.re Cyril Spike and Carlos Becking-
ton.
Likewise in general livestock
judging a Washtenaw team obtained
the state chamipionship, while one of
the members was awarded highest in-
dividual honors and another took sec-
' ond plaice. Raymond Girbach won the
high Individual honors, with Clifford
Boyer second. Mac Olds was the third
member of this team. The team entries numbered 23.
In the grain judging contest, with
eight team, entries, Washtenaw won
second place, with Gratiot' county
first. R. Moore, a member of the
Washtenaw teami, won the highest
state honors for individual judging
in grain. His teammates were J.
Wheeler and B. Moore.
Hugh Austin of Saline in addition
to his honors in dairy judging, won
the flrst place in the iboys' and girls'
milking contest. The reward was a
loving cup.
Onley Outwater of Washtenaw was
one of the honor boys, picked on the
result of eighth grade examinations,
who visited the fair as/ a member of
the all-state delegation of 76 boys
from various Michigan counties'. Onley and his companions were guests of
the fair Friday and Saturday.—Times
"News
Shore Leave" is the comedy hit of
•.nichand Barthelmess's career.
The story was adapted from the
David Belasco sucess by Hubert Osborne, in which Frances Starr appeared several seasons ago. Barthelmess plays the role .created on the
stage bv James Rennie of the tough
gob so successfully* wooed * by the
New England dressmaker.
The pjictua-e,* which was adapted.
by John S- Robertson, is? an amusing
comedy of the Navy. Many of the
scenes were taken with the cooperation of the United States Navy on
board- the "Arkansas" at Hampton
Roads.
The story tells of Bilge Smith, who,
on a visit to shore meets Connie Martin, the dressmaker in a fishing village. Connie immediatey falls inlove
with the "gob" and lays plans to trap
the unwary sailor whose intentions
are far from being serious. For Connie was born* with a love of the sea,
inherited from her father, who was
a sea captain."
When the gob mentions a passing
ambition tq be the captain of a
freighter, Connie sets about salvaging her father's ship which has foundered in a river in India. Bilge, the
gob, returns after a long cruise to
find Connie and her ship waiting.
But to her sorrow she finds that the
sailor not only never has given her a
thought, but doesn't recognize her
when he sees her.
The working out of. this rare unusual romance is played with rare
comedy by Barthelmess and his leading woman, Dorothy Maekaill. In
fact, Barthelmess. is said to register
one of- the .comedy hits of the year.
The picture is booked for showing
at the Liberty, theatre Saturday
and Sunday.

KEEP BEES BETTER
Even if a colony of bees is strong at
this- time, it cannot be expected to go
through the winter well in the .North
unless it now has a good young queen,
so that plenty df young bees will be
reared to. live through the winter.
All old bees which have worked
through the summer will soon dte.
Any colony which does not have at
least 30 pounds of honey and the hive
full of young bees when cool weather
comes should ibe united with some
other colony of the same kind, or
with a stronger one. Most winter loss
is caused by poor fall management,

KEEP DIRT FROM MILK
BETTER THAN REMOVING IT
While some of the dirt in milk
comes fron*" the air, the hands and
clothing of the milker, and unclean
strainers, pails, cans, and other
utensils, the greater part drops from
file body of the cows during milking.
Straining removes the coarse particles of dirt but eliminates neither the
fine dirt nor bacteria. The process
improves the appearance of the milk
but gives a fafte impression of the
real .cleanliness of the milk if the results are 'used as the sole guide.
Cheese cloth and Wire strainers,
because .of their coarse meshes, ara
unsatisfactory Tov straining milk,
Absorbent cotton and filter cloth,
which can be bought from drug stores
or dairy supply houses at compara-
tivelj' moderate-icost, remove most of
the   sediment from milk.
Since the body of the cow is the
■chief source of dirt in milk she should
be groomied frequently. In addition-
the flanks, udder, and adjacent belly
should be cleaned with a moist cloth
just before milking. These parts if
kept clipped are much easier to clean.
