SOMETHING ELSE FOR PROUD
MOLINE TO BOAST ABOUT
Wonderful Cow Gives So Much Skim
Milk Whole Herds Production
is Below Standard.

Rock Island, May 12-Editor Argus:
Moline has many sufficient reasons for
self-cOngratulation and outside admira-
ton, and now has added a new jewel
to her crown Moline has the most
wonderful cow in the world. milk
man there has herd of COWS which,
with one exception, test A per cent fat.
This is in itself remarkable at this
time of green pastures. The one cow
tests but per cent. This also is won
derful. But the most astounding fact
is that this COW gives SO much milk
that the average of the herd is reduced
to a shade above 2 per cent; at least
that was the result of one test made
recently by the state inspector. Now,
one of two things is true. Either that
COW gave only one bottle of milk, which
was the one tested, by some strange
chance, or else the COW gave so much
milk that the average of the herd was
reduced to the low figure mentioned
The former suggestion being practic-
ally impossible. the latter must be the
fact. Assuming the farmer has six
cows giving three gallons daily, we
have Is gallons, or about $50 pounds,
containing six pounds of fat on Il 4 per
cent test To produce the same amount
of fat the 2 per cent COW would have
to give 500 pounds of milk. or about
Sc gallons daily. This milk being
equal in fat, but double the 4 per cent
in volume would make the average
more than the per cent found, about
81 per cent, SO in order to make an
average of per cent for a herd of
seven COWS the one wonder would have
to give about four times as much as
the other six, or ~ gallons daily. Proud

move them to open a street or to wild
en- one. The grade of highways may
have to be raised or lowered and abut-
tin property may be greatly damaged
when the city finally finds itself forced
to take up the work of making perma-
nent improvements. The interests of
a symetrical city demand that control
of the land being plated be secured
at the earliest possible date to pre-
vent more mistakes and correct those
already made before the expense
mounts to menacing figure.
Sanitation Important.
Then there is the question of santa
ton. Parts of South Rock Island are
already too populous to be safely reg
ulated without properly constituted
health jurisdiction Well water will
in places, soon cease to be safe for
drinking purposes. Contagiousj dis
eases will need to be looked after I'M
der a system more detailed and COM
prehensive than is possible under town
ship government. The removal of gar
bage, draining of pools, etc. should be
under the eye of the city Certain
districts should be in position to re-
ceive the benefits of sewer service as
soon as the southwest sewer and storm
drain system is built
And there are other arguments in favor
of beginning at once to offer reasons TO
our neighbors en- the south to show
them why they should take the init
iative in a move for annexation.

The excuses presented for not be
coming a Christian constituted the sub
ject which Dr. Biederwolf last evening
discussed. His text was, with one
consent they began TO make excuse,
the verse found in the parable of the
rich mans feast to which he invited
first those he esteemed, and on their
refusal brought his guests from the
highways and the byways. DR.. Bieder-
wolf pointed the very improbability of
such action as that of these men as
the strong point of the parable.
Action is Similar.
"And when we realize that man
would probably not act so in the case
of a feast of the things of this world,
is it not strange that so many act in
just this way when invited 10 the feast
of spiritual things?" said the evangel-
list when you think of this matter
more. you are certain to become con-
WINGED that these three men who could
not accept the invitation, used their
oxen, land, and the wife as a mere
preteXt to hide their Discrimination to
accept" He held the third mans rea-
son, that he had just married, to be
quite commendable, and in this con-
nection spoke of the lodge and clubs
and other places of congregation away
from the home as great influences to
unhappincss. He did not confine his
criticism to mems clubs and lodges, but
to the women's fraternities, societies,
and clubs. as well.
