A SPLENDID JERSEY RECORD

In a recent issue The Ranch gave
the years record of Financial Coun-
tess that placed her at the head of
the Jersey class. The American Jer-
sey Cattle Club has now sent Prof. F.
w. Woll of Madison to Jerseyville,
Ill.,, to conduct an official test of the
Jersey COW Jacoba Irene, owned by
A. G. Auten. This COW has made the
phenomenal production of over three
pounds of butter fat for each day of
the first six months of her present lac
tation period, and is now producing
about fifty pounds of milk daily, con-
tanning over 5 per cent of butter fat.
Barring accidents, she will receive
credits for producing over $50 pounds
of butter fat, equivalent to 1000
pounds of butter, for the year, which
will end January "a, 1909. This will
place her ahead of Yeksa Sunbeam,
that produced 1000 pounds of butter
on yearly test conducted three years
ago by the Wisconsin Experiment Sta
tion During her present lactation per-
iod Jacoba Irene is unlikely, however,
to better the record of 998.26 pounds
of butter fat produced in one year by
a dairy COW, which at present is held
by the Holstein COW, Colantha 4th's
Johanna.

and published by the State Board of.
Agriculture of that state.
Milk of average quality at market
prices furnishes more food for the
money than do more expensive kinds
of meat, such as beef, mutton, and
pork, and is much cheaper than such
special foods as eggs or oysters, or
most vegetables and fruits. Only
breakfast foods, ETC., are cheaper
sources of energy than milk. A glance
at Professor Lindsey's table shows
that milk at six cents q quart fur
nishes the same amount of protein as
round beef at sixteen cents or roast
pork at twelve cents. That is to say,
dollars worth of either of these
foods contains an equal amount of pro-
tein. Even where milk is sold as high
as ten cents per quart, a dollar will
buy as much protein when spent for
milk as if spent for lamb chops at
twenty-five cents per pound, sirloin
beef at thirty cents, or eggs at thirty
six cents per dozen.
Milk an Important Factor in Diet.
Professor Lindsey thinks milk
should occupy larger place in daily
diet than is ordinarily given. In ex.
periments at the Maine State College
it was found that when the students
were allowed free use of milk the ex-
ira milk consumed replaced the other.
animal food to a nearly corresponding
extent, and the milk diet was not only
less costly than the meat, but was
fully as satisfactory. When skim-milk
is used the food value is obtained at
even less cost, since the value as a
food does not depend very much on
the cream, and at the price at which
it is valued in most country districts,
about one-half cent quart, it is one
of the very cheapest foods, and can
be used to advantage in place of water
in cooking, adding greatly to the value
of the foods with which it is mixed.
Hardy any food returns so much of
it's food value, because there is no
loss in cooking and no waste. 1t is
palatable, easily digested, and accord
ing to Professor Lindsey is entitled
to be classed among the most economi-
cal human foods.

BRYAN HARD AFTER THEM
Remarks on Inadcquacy of Republi-
 can Publicity Pledge.

Fairview, Lincoln, Neb.. July 15.- Today was one of comparative leisure for w. J. Bryan, and he found oppor tunity to dispose of considerable per sonal business. In view of yesterdays action of the national democratic com mittee on the subject of publication of campaign contributions, MT. Bryan was especially interested in the announce mont of the republican treasurer, Mir. sheldon, that he would not before cleo ton make known the contributions made for the republican campaign, but that he would do so after the election.
 What would you think of sheriff, !" said Mr Bryan to the newspaper core spondents "who when approached by man from whom a horse had been stolen, said You cannot get your horse back, but can tell you who has the horse.
 The conclusion of Mr. Bryan to go to Chicago on the 25th of this month to meet the subcommittee of the nation al committee, was 'based on tho fact that 1t would be more convenient to all parties concerned Mr. Bryan stated, however that he would not at that time make any public addresses, but would reserve his utterances until the day of the official notification of his nominations He will leave here on the afternoon of the 24th and expects to remain in Chicago only one day.

Hot Springs, Vau July l5,-Senator Jonathan Bourne, the original 'sesond elective term advocate, wll be In Hot Springs in the near future, He prob ably will put off coming here until next week. when Mr. Talt will not be SO greatly pressed for time. MT. Bournos proposed visit 70 the candi- date of the republican party Is ac- cepted as indicating that he Is thor oughly roconciled to Mr. rdfts nomin- ation, although he consistently insist ed upon having second eertive term for President Roosevelt up @ the hour the convention chose It's candidates.
 The coming here this morning of Arthur l. Vorys of Ohio Is taken to mean that he regards the Ohio sItua- ton as demanding prompt attention. AIr. Vorys having been placed in charge of the Ohio campaign has his reputation as manager at 'take in that contest, and 1t Is believed here that hc will favor an early start In the work before him.
