BETTER FEEDING
SYSTEM NEEDED.
Home Grown Feeds Is Urged by Univer-
sity of Wisconsin Officials for Sc
curing Better Stock.

MADISON, Wis, Oct. 1O.-[Special.l
AS the result of an extensive investiga-
ton carried by the university with the
dairy herd bulletin was issued today
which declares that rations made up
mainly of farm-grown feeds will, when
properly fed to the right kind of cows,
produce large and economical returns.
For some years the university has expert
mented with all sorts of different feeds
and while the experiments are not COM
plete the bulletin today says dairy farm
ers may adopt the system of feeding
homegrown feeds with considerable as
surance that it will prove very satlstac-
tory, both as regards the amount of pro-
duction and the net profits secured from
cows of good capacity for dairy produc-
ton"
The pamphlet is compiled by Prof.
George G. Humphrey, head of the depart
ment of animal husbandry and +. W.
Woll, professor of agricultural chem
istry.
There are approximate a million
and a quarter of dairy cows in Wiscon-
sin, the products of which yield at a
conservative estimate an annual income
to the state of over fifty million dol
lars" says the bulletin. ut is evident
to all who have looked into the matter
that this sum, vast as it is, would be
greatly increased through general
adoption of better system of feeding
and management Of the COWS than that
now practiced on most dairy farms. A
general improvement in the production
of dairy herds and the net returns OBJ
tanned from these has taken place OF
late years, through the work of educa-
tional and other institutions maintained
by the state for the advancement of
agriculture and through the example OF
intelligent, progressive dairy farmers
found in nearly every community"
The university herd was started in
1898 and is composed Of about thirty
mich cows, representing practically
every breed of cattle. A system of feed
ing was started at once and accurate
accounts kept of the production and cost
of maintenance of each animal.
The twenty-seven cows, whose COLI
plete record is given in the bulletin av-
eraged 1854 pounds of milk and 3O5 9S
pounds of fat. The average value of
their production was $87.91; average cost
of feed $685. and the average net prof
it's were $54.O7. In order to ascertain
whether the cows utilized any appreciable
fraction of their feed for the production
of body weight, the average weights OF
the different COWS at the beginning and
end of the periods were kept Each
COW was w0ghed three times weekly
With an average gain of 100 pounds fol
the twenty cows, there appears TO be a
decided tendency toward an increase OF
body weight as the result of the system
of feeding practiced, says the bulletin.

IN wounding. but having taken only six
cartridges with her, was obliged to re
turn to her house for ammunition.
Returning to the scene of action ac-
companied by Miss Hazel Whiteside, the
frst bear wounded was found in the
heavy underground and at once showed
fight, but was killed by shot which
broke his neck. The ladies then took the
trail of the other wounded animal, but
were unable to overtake it, though the
trail was we'll marked with blood. They
then returned and skinned the dead
bear, which weighed about 200 pounds.

EVIL ONLY IN IMAGINATION.
Executive Committee Has Aided Roose-

United States and France.
INSPECTION LAW is ENDORSED.

CHICAGO, ILL.,. Oct. 12.-The third
annual convention of the American Meat
Packers association opened here today
with delegates present from all parts OF
the United States. The meeting was
called to order by President James S.
Agar of this city.
In his address President Agar paid
his compliments to the so-called muck
rakers." saying that "prodding an indus
try, in which we are engaged, in the ribs
with sharp stick has in the past been
a highly celebrating pasUfme for GER
tain people, but instead of correcting
evils. which in a great majority OF
cases existed only in the willing magma
ton of the authorities, a lasting injury
was inflicted upon the commerce OF our
country"
Packers Aided Roosevelt.
The executive committee in it's report,
which was heartily endorsed by the con-
vention, stated that during the past year
the association had taken an active in
terest in all of the industrial movements
which tended to bring the industries in
closer relationship with the federal gov
eminent, and that members of the asso-
citation had furnished valuable informa-
ton to the commission appointed by
President Roosevelt which conferred
with a similar commission from France
for the purpose of expediting trade be-
tween the two nations. The committee
also reiterated it's endorsement of the
meat inspection law to which it gave
approval at the last convention.
Wilson Will Speak.
Secretary of Agriculture James Will
son and DIR. A. D. Melvin, also of the
department of agriculture, are expected
to address the convention. Secretary
Wilson will probably reach here tomor-
