LIVED LONG WITHOUT EATING
Men and Animals Have Made Some
Remarkable Fasts a Mat
ter of Record.

The record for fasting, SO far az
humanity is concerned, is held by
Granie, French murderer who de-
termined to starve himself to death,
and from the day of his arrest refused
to eat. In spite of every effort on the
part of his warders. who first tried
tempting him to eat by placing the
most dainty meals in his cell. and
when that failed, attempted feeding
him by force, he held out for SO days,
at the end of which time he died. Up
to then the longest authenticated fast
on record was that accomplished by
Giovanni Succi. who tasted at the
Royal Aquarium, London, for As days.
But these records sink into insignif-
cahce when compared with the fat
pig OF Dover, enshrined in DR.. w. B.
Carpenters Manual of Physiology"
This pig weighed 160 pounds and was
entombed for 160 days by the fall Of
a portion of the chalk cliffs. When
dug out it weighed only 40 pounds,
but to the surprise of its owner was
alive.

England Their Superiority.

From the very origin OF the breed
Shorthorns have had two qualities to
commend them to favorable considera,
ton, and 1t is this dual capacity OF
beef and milk production that has
made them SO popular with farmers
and stockmen. AS beef producers
Shorthorns are known of all men,"
but their dairy qualities. though ex-
cellent when properly developed, are
not so generally understood. The ear
ly history of the breed furnishes
many instances of cows that were
great milk producers, says the North
western Agriculturist.
One of the earliest breeders to de-
velop milk production In his herd
was Jonas Whitaker, and. as a re-
suit, his cows were known all over
England for their excellent dairy

WATER FOR
DAIRY COWS
Important That the Three or More
Gallons Given to Animals Daily
be Warmed to About 60
DeQ ices r.

1t is very important that the water
drunk by the cows giving three or
more gallons Of milk daily be warmed
to about go degrees F. Otherwise the
cows will not drink as much as they
need to keep up a good milk flow. 1t
does not take much ice water to chill
thin-fleshed COW through and through
on a cold winter day, especially when
she is compelled to walk some dis
tance through the snow or cutting
wind to get to the tank or pond. Ex-
periments made at the Missouri state
experimental station show that drink
ing water is needed In proportion to
the milk yield. That Is, COW CIV
ing six gallons Of milk a day needs
about twice as much water as a COW

Mr.. Brandeis first came into promi-

the Public Franchise league OF Boston
he was involved in the struggle over
the reorganization of the Boston gas

gas companies on unique principle.
The total capitalization OF the new
company was made the same as that

allowed to pay seven per cent. OF
