The heat wave that held the District in
a ''hot pack for the last week or more
has been shattered and the fragments dis
sipated. The heavy electric storm which
passed over the city last evening did the
trick.
This information was given out today
by Forecaster Bowie of the weather bu-
reau, who also said the temperature to-
day will not reach the 90 mark. 1t may
not go over 81 or S.
The disturbance also wiped out the high
percentage Of humidity, which. combined

pressive. The minimum temperature read

high temperatures in the next forty-eight

mercury may get down as low as IS to-
night and make sleep a comfortable prop
osition.
There will be threatening skies this
afternoon and tonight. Tomorrow will be
fair. The storm Of last night will be fol-
lowed by higher pressure from the lake
region
THAT is the most comforting line of
talk the forecaster has handed out for

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
ALEXANDRIA, Va, July 13, 1910.
The special committee appointed by
council to investigate the city's con-
tract with the Alexandria Electric
Light Company wants more expert
advice before making a final report.
and in a statement submitted last night
to council asked for an additional ap-
preparation Of 5000 to secure this ex-
pert testimony. This was granted.
In addition to this the committee
recommended that 20 per cent of the
monthly payments due the electric
company for street lights be withheld
until a settlement OF the points at
issue is reached. This feature was
deemed Objectionable by the majority
Of members Of the council on the
grounds that the company's bond would
make such a procedure unnecessary.
This part was stricken out and the
report adopted.

five PER cent of the fertility of the
manure produced in the state is vast
ed. This should not be the case fer
manure should be cared for and used
in way that would bring return to
the farmer. When this is done the fer
tilizing value of the feeds purchased
should be considered, especially since
they vary SO widely; for instance, corn
has a fertilizing value of only about
six dollars per ton while ton Of cot
ton seed meal has about four times
this value.
The detail of the problems con-
fronting the dairy farmer in feeding

sections of the state, and for this rea-
sor it is essential that every one study
the principles involved so that he may
intelligently apply them under his
conditions.

PROPORTION OF ROUGHAGE TO
CONCENTRATE

This is important for, as rule, the
nutrients are supplied at less cost
in roughage, i. g. hay, silage, roots,
etc. A cow giving a good flow of milk
does not have the capacity to take
enough roughage to supply the needed
nutrients for keeping up the body and
manufacturing milk so it is necessary
to supply portion of the required
nutrients in a more concentrated form.
Our most common concentrates are,
bran, shorts, barley, oilmeal, etc. AS
a rule, a COW producing from twenty
to thirty pounds of milk per day
should be able to secure about two
thirds of the required nutrients from
roughage while the other third must
be supplied in the form OF nigh
