tBy PROF j. M. SCOTT. Florida Ex-
pertinent Station.)
Florida farmers and dairymen have
In the velvet bean one OF the cheapest
and best dairy feeds. Experiments
which have been carried out at this
station indicate that the velvet beans
are nearly equal pound for pound to
eottonseed meal for milk produc-
tion.
The first test was conducted during
the winter Of 19OS-s. The results
showed that 267.75 pounds Of velvet
beans In a pod produce as much milk
as 94.5 pounds of cottonseed meal.
When 267.75 pounds Of velvet beans
In pod were fed with wheat bran
and sorghum silage. the COWS gave
1885 gallons Of milk. When 94.5
pounds of cottonseed meal were fed
with wheat bran and sorghum siIage.
1883 gallons of milk were produced.
The cost per gallon of milk, not in
ciuding labor, was: velvet bean ration.
1873 cents; cottonseed meal ration.
1877 cents. This shows slight diff
ference in favor Of the velvet bean ra-
tion, The same test was repeated du-
ring the winter OF 1909-1O. In this
test. S16 pounds of velvet beans in a
pod. when fed with wheat bran and
silage, produced 325.5 gallons Of milk;
while SIC pounds of cottonseed meal
produced 328 gallons of milk. when
fed with wheat bran and silage. The
cost per gallon Of the milk was, with
the velvet bean ration. 13.4 cents (in.

DECLARES THERE WAS
NO GARDEN OF EDEN.
Chicago University Man Calls Bible
Narrative Figure of Speech"

Professor Edward Robertson of the
University Of Chicago has been search
ing for the garden of Eden. He has
spent years ON the hunt, and he now
writes that it was folly" He denies
the claims of critics who have placed
the garden variousiy in Armenia, in
Babylonia, in Arabia and elsewhere.
Professor Robertson advances the
theory that the section of Genesis con
tanning the aocount of the garden Is
not the WORK Of one hand, but a com
postte document. He asserts:
1T Is evident that the whole nara
tive Is a figure of speech enshrininR
the doctrine OF an irresponsible and
sinless state in which man was Gre
ated- whence he passed into one re-
sponeible and sinful. Prom what we
can gather there appears to have been
no definite location OF the garden in
the mind of the narrator. His pleasure
gnnden Is an ideal locality"
He intimates that the tradition OF the
creation Of woman In D5en may be the
result Of corruption of the text OF
the efforts of early editors 10 weld the
different documents he says:
"By arranging the texts suitably 1t
might be made to appear that woman
was created after man was put into
the garden. The same. too, with the
beasts OF the field Thus II comes
about that the creation of woman and
of the beasts OF the field rs made to ap-
pear as a work performed by the Lord
God within the garden, while the Ian
guage used, as can readily be observed.
conveys not the slightest hint that such
was really the case"

al, not half as high as the Statue of

The modern wonders were chosen
from ballot containing fffty-six sub
jects of scientific and mechanical
achievement There were blank spaces
for the insertion Of any other sub
tects the voters might select. Wire
less teiegraphy got the greatest num-
ber of votes. The Panama canal was
given 100 votes; anaesthesia, 94 and
synthetic chemistry, 81.
Only one ballot the last TO be re-
eeived, which bore the name of one of
the most distinguished authorities on
chemistry Of Munich, Germany, was
