the biggest unknown quantity there

that the so called experts are expert
only as far as their particular hobby
goes and that the old school whose
principal text book is human nature
has the modern idea in politics pushed
off the boards when it comes to pick
ing winners. It has provided him, too,
with the knowledge that the modern
day prophet Is about the most unre-
liable thing going and that the poll

yesterday. Six months ago the pro-
grassive movement was sweeping the
land and had the West, including Min
nesota, in it's grasp. City and country
press were united in declaring that
this was an era of uplift and that the
old bosses would have to go. 1t was
predicted that political boneyards
would be as numerous as Democratic
soup houses. Out Of it La Toilette

INCREASED YIELDS OF MILK
Pennsylvania State Experiment Sta
tion Makes Comparative Study Of
SoillnQ Crops.

The Pennsylvania state experiment
station has made a comparative study
of soiling crops for dairy COWS. It
was found that the chief influence up
on quantity Of milk produced during
the experiments seemed to be closely
related to the palatability Of feeds.
That is to say, those feeds eaten by
the cows with the greatest relish, and
consequently Of which the largest
quantity Of green forage was consum.
ed generally gave the largest yields
Of milk. This seemed to be true re-
gardless Of the amount of dry matter
or percentage of protein contained in
the feed. Briefly. the milk produced
bore much closer relationship to to-
tai green forage than to dry matter
or protein consumed. The effect upon
quality Of milk was shown only in. an
indirect manner. In no case was q
flavor impaired sufficiently marked to
be detected after the milk was aerated
and cooled. The percentage of butter
fat seemed to vary inversely as the
live weight Of the cows In other
words. those feeds which produced q
gain In live weight seemed to produce
a milk containing a lower per cent.
Of butterfat than was secreted when
the cows were losing weight. This
was true regardless Of the quantity of
milk produced. The Indications are
that some feeds tend to fatten the an
imals themselves. while others tend
to produce fat In the milk.
