sons between 6 and II years Of age,
and the COURIER publishes below
the amounts arportioned to sur
rounding counties. The distribu-
ton is l3 cents less per capita than
last year. A comparison Of the
amounts collected in each county
will show the folly Of some of our
Senators and Representatives al

so get hold Of them thst they voted
for reduction of the school tax

wealthy aggregations objected to
paying taxes for the education of
the masses of the State, as the
figures below show they collected
locally more than they drew from
the State treasury. About 20 9th
ers counties in the State with large
railroad interests were in the same
fix, and about 20 more drew out
ibout the same amount they paid
in. But il is good deal fairer for
the wealthy to pay for the educa-
ton of the children than to place it
upon the less wealthy counties.

of its value n food, the creamI

in itself is the least nutritious part
of the milk. The cheesy matterI
left in the milk, is its most stvaluapleI
part for food, and tends to produce
a vigorous, healthful growth, where
led calves, pigs and chickens. If
more American pigs and chickens
were led less corn and more skim
milk, it would not only be 10 their
lasting benefit, but it would also
eventually result in financial bene-
fit to the farmer.
With the purpose OF studying the
effect OF skim milk diet on young
growing chickens, an experiment
was conducted at the Indiana Agri-
cultural Experiment Station, In
which two lots of checkers were un-
der observation. There were ten
chickens of two breeds in each lot,
ranging from four to six weeks oi
age at the beginning OF the .xperl-
'jment. Each lot received the same
'lfood, care and treatment, excepting
that one was fed all the skim milk
wanted, while the other was giver
