The natural conven tions will be called to a meeting of the executive board to be held at Wavqriy bn Monday. It is probable that the convention will be held in Buffalo, b u t it cannot be held for several weeks, for a t least 30 days notice must be given. That means that the holders of certificates expir ing in April cannot get their money probably until May for there will be no more-payoffs until after this ctm- vention. It has leaked out that it was on ac count of the attitude of the postal antborities that President Scott of Waverly and National Vice Presi dent H. E. V. Porter of Jamestown wept to 'Washington recently and were in conference with the officials of the postal department, including Assistant Attorney General Goodwin on Monday. When asked if the re port was true tbgt the po.stal de partment had found that instead of being able to pay $113 on each §125 certifleate the legion was only able to paj$72, Mir.

A careful record was kept' of results, and it was found that of the 250 undipped horses 153 were afflicted with coughs and pneumonia, while of the 250 clipped not one case of sickness was re ported. The clippii^ of a horse in the early spring is now conceded by all the leading veterinarians to be as essential to a horse’s well being as shoeing him or giving him a comfortable bed to lie on.
