MORE RECORDS ARE BROKEN

Once more the seemingly impossible has been accomplished in connection with International Live Stock exposition entries. Once again we find new records established in the number of animals to be placed on exhibition at the 1916 show, which will this year be held from December 2 to 9. With such a showing, after a lapse of two years, we are brought to realize that even after the set-back given this leading exponent of the live stock industry during the past two years it is now even more popular with the breeders than it was in the past. The management, however, will not content itself with giving the visitors a greater and better exhibition of live stock, but has also planned to enlarge upon its educational work, and an effort is being put forth to offer much additional helpful information in new and original forms to those attending the show. The spectacular side of the exposition will be as prominent as the practical. A series of evening attractions of unique character are being secured which assure a program that will eclipse anything ever offered in the past. Interest in horees in these days of the automobile instead of waning seems to be growing, and the nightly horse fair will eclipse even the superb equine displays of former years. If you miss this year’s show you will be the loser. Plan your trip now. Give the madame a treat and purchase the boys a gilt-edged security by taking them along, so they ma >~ gain inspiration frgm seeing the products of the master feeders and absorb lessons which cannot be acquired through any other channels than this supreme event of this season.—Advt. The home of Harbor B, one of the marine squads of the New York police, is now situated in a comfortably built house on a barge, moored off Randalls island. It was built by the police themselves, together with a marine railway and a dock on a large piece of reclaimed ground. It is connected by telephone with police headquarters and has a comfortable sitting room for the reserves and a bunk room with a veranda around the outside. It is lighted by electricity and heated by stoves.
