A farmer who had a herd of dairy
COWS contracted all his milk for a
year to an experimental farm near.
At the close Of the year, the exper-
mental farm bought the whole herd
and at the end of the second year
it was found that each Of the herd
had doubled their milk production
and some considerable more. Not
long ago, a man in Wisconsin
bought a dairy bred cow from a
Minnesota dairyman, considered an
average dairy COW. Last year this
same COW produced 1920 pounds
Of milk, which made 1000 pounds
Of butter. Let us do a little think
ing and see if there is not a way we
can improve our herds so that they
will be better adapted for their work
as dairy cattle, and if we cannot
raise still better feeds and feed them
more literally and intelligently.
Won't our profits be much larger
and won't there be a lot more salts
faction in breeding to know we have
an object in view that is worth the
while? Our dairymen have done
wisely in growing rather than 60
ing into dairying," but let us keep
up the growth by better breeding
and better feeding.

Political Curves.

When William J. Bryan landed In
New York he was prepared to discuss
the question of government ownership
OF railroads strongly but without com
hitting himself too positively to the
policy. His Madison Square Garden
audience became so enthusiastic when
the phrase government ownership"
was first used by him that he seems
to have let his language become more
emphatic than he had intended, He
said:
II have reached the conclusion that
there will be no permanent relief on
the railroad question from discrimina-
ton between individuals and between
places and from extortionate rates
until the railroads are the property OF
the government and operated by the
government in the interests of the
people,"
Then came the storm In the Demo
cratic party.
In his Chicago speech Mr. Bryan
repeated his statement, with some
softening OF phrase and with EN-.
phasis on the fact that II was only his
private opinion that was In question.
But the storm did not cease.

AS Is we'll known, the announcement was to the
effect that September / and thereafter there
would be raise from the rate of Is cents per
thousand feet (Which prevailed for wharfage COW
ering period Of 60 days and longer) to that of rs
cents plus 70 cents for the first 30 days or frac-

In other words the STARTLING RAISE was
from the prevailing fiat rate OF 25 cents per thous
and feet for go days to practically $170 per thOus
and feet for go days.
This was the basis of the vigorous complaint by
the lumber dealers at the ports of Jacksonville
