milk as readily to one mixer as to
another, and does not seem disturbed
by any amount OF noise in the stable.
AS dairy COW she is particularly
adapted to the production of milk for
the milkman and for table use, as her
medium size, vigorous appetite and
easy keeping qualities make her an
economical producer, while her even,
uniform production makes her reli-
able supply, and the richness of her
milk in total solids places it above
suspicion from city milk inspectors.
Her milk is particularly adapted to
transportation, as it does not churn

REPUBLICANS WIN IN MAINE

Four Congressional Districts, Gain

Portland. Me.-The fight for the
control of the state government be-
tween the combination of all brands
of Republicans and the Democrats
resulted Monday in a victory for the
Republicans. The latest available
figures indicate plurality Of about
1000 for William T. Haines, Republi-
can. for governor. over Frederick W.
Plaisted, the present Democratic gov
ernor, the election of three out OF
four Republican candidates for con-
gress, practically insuring Republican
control Of the legislature.
Both the Roosevelt leaders, who
control the machinery of the Repub-
lican party in the state, and the Taft
men are claiming credit for success
of their combination ticket.
With the ending of the truce pre-
yaiIing during the state campaign,
the rival leaders win take up the
cudgels against each other and fight
for the six electors that each has
put into the national contest.
