GREAT Contrast in Cows

A most Interesting demon
stration has been conducted by
the dairy department at the
University of Illinois to show
the wide diversity In the efici
ency of cows. One of the best
and one of the poorest cows
were purchased from each of
six dairy herds 10 northern Hi
nots. They were all cared for
under equal conditions and ted
the same kinds of food. but
each cow was given all the feed
that she would consume. An
accurate record of all feed Civ
en- and milk and butter tat pro-
duced was kept for one year.
One cow produced 3,O98 pounds
OF milk, while the other from
the same herd produced 1892
pounds of milk, that is three
time as much as the former.
While the one COW produced
milk at Sc cents per 100 pounds.
the other charged $l.75 Inau-
other comparison one cow pro-
duced 1855 pounds of milk,
while the other produced IA 843
pounds.
Oue COW produced 8 563
pounds of milk containing POI
pounds of butter fat, while an.
other from the same herd pro-
duced only 1,411 pounds of milk
containing So pounds of butter
tat. The one gave more than
six times as much milk as the
other. The one charged 90
cents a 100 pounds for milk, aud
the other charged SO 16 for the
same. The one produced butter
fat at 26 cents a pound, while
while the other COW Charged "a
cents for butter fat.

To Our Subscribers,

According to a new ruling of
the postoffice department which
went into effect Jan. LIST, news
papers cannot send out papers
to subscribers who are more
than one year behind. The
DEMOCRAT has been given a
reasonable time to collect back
accounts. Come in at once or
send your money and save US
the expense of collecting. We
have no desire to become law
violator and will obey the law

The MaryvilIe Republican
publishes an editorial discussion
OF newspapers and the public
which the Ledger reprints with
pleasure and approval: News
papers are supported by the
community 10 which they are
published, and the newspapers
therefore should exist for the
benefit of their community.
They should all favor anything
that is for the benefit of their
city or county. A newspaper
cannot consistently ask for sup
port unless it WORKS for the
welfare of it's patrons. The
public should therefore, watch
carefully the course of everV
newspapers. If it sulks when
other papers are booming some
thing that will help the citv.
they should find out the reason
for it. On matters of public in
terest, they should lay aside
petty jealousies and get togeth-
er. The Republican is anxious
that people watch it's course
and also the course of other To-
cal papers. The paper that ia
most unseltish and broad mind
ed should receive credit for it
oy getting the most liberal sup
port. Newspaper jealousy of.
ten becomes a serious matter.
A paper will propose something
for the public good, but must
carry it through alone. Tue
other papers not only lend a
cold hand, but must dash cold
water over it Now this babv
play is against the best inter.
ests OF the newspapers them
selves On questions OF local
puohc benefit, let all papers
get together and MaryvilIe will
be gai er, aud the newspa-
pers. too. There is no attack.

The Wise One.

There was a man in our town,
And he was wondrous wise;
DE didn't do the strenuous life
Nor go the pace that flies.
He didn't hit an auto up
Until he caused a wreck
From which they later picked
him out
With broken bones or neck.
He didn't seek the upper air
La ships that fly around
Until they drop a cog and drop
Their contents to the ground.
He didn't drive a rapid horse
That loved to burn the road
Unul he ran away like mad
Aud smashed its wagon-load.
He didn't buck the Wall street
bunch
AS either bull or bear
UntiI he finished up with it
And left bis wad down here.
He didn't blow his million on
The great white way by night
Nor mix up in the social wnirl
That sweeps the cash all
right.
He didn't even try to skip
With Browns or Jones wife;
But brdvely sought in every
way
To live the simple life
And so be lived-until one day,
Just how did not appear,
A street Car caught him on the
track
And ended his career.
Beneath the sod the wise one
rests;
We wipe our weeping eyes
And wonder in a town like ours
Why should man be wiser
