cows. however. he found that at the
end of the first years testing only
twenty eight were good enough to
justify him in keeping them for breed
ing and dairy purposes. He sold the
others and kept only these twenty
eight with the eheifer calves. In the
year 1901 these twenty-eight cows av-
eraged him 272 pounds of butter fat
per cow. In the year 1902 he had
forty cows, which averaged BIT
pounds of butterfat. In the year 1908
he had fifty-five cows, which averaged
$50 pounds Of butter fat.
In 1904 he had sixty-one cows, which
averaged 376 pounds of butter fat: in
1905 sixty-fOur, which averaged 800
pounds Of butter fat, and in 1906 sew
enty-one, which averaged 401 pounds.
At the end Of six years he had
reached his original number of cows,
but each cows milk during the year
1906 averaged 1856 pounds of butter
fat more than each of the cows that
he was milking in the year 1900. He
not only increased the production of
SoSh WV Out NC ueCIedScu l1e cOSC OF
feed. For example, in the year 1900
he got 1O.1 pounds of butter fat for
each 100 feed units, while in the year
1906 he got 1872 pounds of butter for
100 feed units. In other words. he
not only increased the production by
over per cent. but he reduced the
cost about One-third. A Swedish feed
unit is equal to % pounds of bran. or
eight-tenths of pound of oil cake. or
thirty-six pounds of silage. or seven
teen pounds of green clover.
What this Swedish dairyman did in
these six years can be done by any
farmer who will put his mind and his
time to the work. All that is neces-
sary Is to first begin to weigh and
test the milk of the cows you have on
hand at the present time. At the end
of the year or sooner you will know
which OF the cows are paying you for
their feed and which are not. Sell
the poor cows, keep the good ones and
their heifer calves. or If necessary
buy a few more good ones and keep
up the work of testing year after year
Within five or six years the yearly
yield of the herd can be increased
from one-third to two-thirds.

IMPROVE DAIRY
HERD BY TESTING,

The story Is told how a Mr.. Kinch
Swedish dairymnn. increased the
Fleid or his herd of cows. In 1900 he
was milking seventy cows. which pro.
duced an average Of 1920 pounds of
milk per COW per year. Most Kansas
dairymen would consider this a very
fair production. Mr.. Kinch, however,
was not satisfied. and he began to
Systematically test his cows by keep
Ing record of the amount of milk
given each day by each COW and by
testing it for butter fat and thus de-
termining the amount of butter fat
given by each cow for year.
He found that in the year 1000 each
COW gave him an average Of PAS
pounds of butter fat. OF the seventy

DETROIT. Aug. ?2-The Detreea
Tigers and New York I~iighlanders are
earnestly discussing the sending OF q
round robin to President Ban johnson
asking for tho retirement of UmperO
Egan, who yesterday gave what the play
ers or both teams insist IL the worst
Imitation Of good umpiring seen in their
experience as big leaguers. Egan Is bad
enough normally. say the players, but
his form OF yesterday was atrocious.
Time after time he reused the ire of
the batsmcn and battery members alter.
nately by missing balls and strikes.
II hnally got so bad that the players
began laughing. This seemed to com-
pletely get Egan's goat. and his poor
work came to a climax In the Anal
inning when, with two out and Gardner
at bat. he refused to allow the Hilltop
per to take his base on n ball tina hi,
him sduarely on the hand, persistinR in
his refusal even when confronted with
tho bleeding digits which resulted from
the impact.

as he had those Of Jennings when

Is Baseball More Strenuous Than Football
Most of the Diamonds Star
Players Have Been Hurt
This Season.
BY ALEX. SULLIVAN.

YwYILL the National Baseball Com
w mission and the Directors OF the
National and American Leagues
have to come together and modify the
diamond rules 30 that there will be less
accidents In the futureh Such a move
had to be made In football. with the re-
suit that last season was practically free
from serious injuries.
OF the two games-baseball and foot
ball-the former appears TO be the more
right now. judging by the
long list OF players who have been hurt
one way or another this season.
Never before in the history OF the
game have there been so many players
obliged to remain out from injuries. and
many OF them have been serious enough
TO cause alarm.
Why, o will ask. are there more
mishaps this season than In past years?
II Is pretty hard TO answer this ques-
ton. but the reason seems to be that
ba se ball calls for more speed than ever.
Base Running Causes Accidents.
Most OF the accidents have been
caused by base running. The game has
become so fast and inside ball has been
so highly developed that success really
seems to hinge upon ability to run the
bases. sliding into bases has resulted
In a number OF bad hurts and being
spiked or knocked down by the runners
have caused other accidents.
Probably the player who has been tho
most dangerously hurt Of any In the
game is Frank Chance. the manager
OF the Cubs. and on the fact OF his en-
forced absence from the lineup the Cubs
will blame the loss OF the National
League pennant II they lose out, Chance
was struck in the head by a pitched ball
early In the season. and the doctors
told him that he can never play again.
Those who saw the Cubs play yesterday
and watched the playing Of Safer at
FIRST base can realize nov much the
club misses It's peerless leader.
The Giants have bean practically Inn
from players being hurt until
last Friday, when Larry Doyle, the
great second baseman. bruised his back
sliding. However, his injury Is not con.
sidered serious. and he Ia expected 10
be in the lineup before the end Of the
week.
