THE BEST or FOOD.
Peculiar Calculations Made by the Massa.

Peculiar Calculations Made by the Massa.
chusetts Experiment station.
In experimenting to ascertain tho
cost OF food for the production Of milk,
the Massachusetts experiment station
found that the total value received
above net cost of food and Of cow in nc
instance exceeded 1897 cents per day.
its average in eleven cases was 1921
cents. There was an actual loss of l.2
cents per day in one case where the
average daily yield of milk for the en-
tire period Of observation 1881 days.
was as low as II quarts, or an average
OF about fifteen pounds and half Of
milk. Fifteen and half pounds day,
in 33l days amounts to 5,12O pounds,
and yet the experiment station report
shows that even that yield brought q
loss OF 1.2 cents day. or a total Of
1897 less than the cost Of food. Five
thousand one hundred and twenty
pounds OF milk at the Fort Atkinson
creamery the past year would have
yielded in butter. besides the skim
milk returned. within fraction of one
dollar per 100 pounds The skim milk
returned to the patrons was worth at
least 20 cents hundred. This would
be about 1870 pounds, which at 20
cents hundred would amount to $3.50.
Add this to the butter value and we
have as the total value of 5, 120 pounds
nj mill tho ann If $H1
According to this calculation. the
Massachusetts experiment station must
have fed their cows $64.97 worth oi
food in 33l days. We get the cost Of
food by adding tosthc value Of the milk
the 1897 which they record rs loss.
We think there must certainly be q
mistake about this somewhere. for it
is difficult to see. even at Massachusetts,
prices, how the keep OF an ordinary
COW could reach that figure. The
average cost Of keeping cows among
first-cla.s dairy farmers in Wisconsin
does rot exceed $40 head. The ex.
pertinent is pitched on little TOO high 4
key to be Of any practical usc asa basis
Of calculation for practical dairymen.
A COW that will yield 5,l2O pounds OF
milk a year is better than one COW in q
hundred in Wisconsin or Massachusetts
does. If such n cow is kept at a loss,
where will the owner OF the average

ware & Hudson Canal company at Olli-
phant, where several acres of anthracite
are burning, nearly 200 feet below the sur
face. About three weeks ago there was an
extensive cave in of the roof at this mine,
followed by an explosion of fire damp,
and several wOrkmen were severely
burned. 1t is thought the fire was then
communicated to the gas blowers,
which rushed steady through the coal
assures. and that the anthracite
was ignited iii that way. The caving in
has been going on steadily since that date,
until the cayed in area is nearly twenty
five acres. 1t was not until yesterday that
the full extent of the fire became known,
and gangs of expert miners were at once
detailed to fight the flames. 1t will be
necessary to cut through 125 feet of coal

Marshal Naele Testifies.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 6.-Deputy Mar
shal David Nagle was examined in the
federal court this morning, and related the
details of the tragedy in the Lathrop din
ing room last month. He said that when
Judge Terry approached Justice Field he
had no idea he was going to make an
attack, but before he could interfere Terry
slapped the Justices On the face with his
right hand and repeated the blow with his
left hand, striking the justice the second
time on the back OF the head. Nagle CON
tlnued: Il was on my feet in an instant,
and throwing out nv right hand to keep
Terry off, shouted: "StOp that; am q
United States otficer!' Terry then direct
ed his attention to me. He had his right
arm in position as if about to deliver
another blow, and as he turned his glance
upon me he
LOOKED LIKE AN INFURIATED BEAST.
He clenched his fist and it Immediately
sought his bosom. Believing my life was
in danger Immediately drew my pistol
with my left hand and catching it with my
right fired two shots in quick succession.
and Terry fell to the floor. Ibelieve Terry
would have cut me to pieces and perhaps
Justice Field too if had not have acted
promptly. He looked like. maddened
Slant. Knew ne naQ always carried a
knife and l believe he. had one on him
then. knew him to be giant in
strength and proposed to take no chances
with him: For that reason held my pis-
tOl in both hands SO he could not take it
away from me. After the shooting was
over, and had Justice Field on the train
again, I told the conductor to look out for
Mrs. Terry. for ] did not like to injure q
woman, but would surely project Justice
Fields" Nagle's examination concluded
with this testimony, and the case was con-
tinued until next Wednesday, when the
question Of the jurisdiction of the federal
court will be argued.
