and Western Pacific railways
Colonel Lomaxs new title was an

other changes in the official family OF
the operating and traffic departments
of the system. which make toward un-

After two weeks of hard work, dur
ing which time he has effected the re-
organization, President Bush, the head
of the three roads, left last night for
New York, where he plans to secure
capital needed to build feeders for the
Western Pacific in the west and to
make the system equal to its transcon-

Secretary Bryan is asked to report

Such conditions are decidedly abnor-
NAL and affects the milk for only a
short period. The practice is ex-
tremely dangerous since it taxes the
cows digestive system and may i'm
pair her function to reproduce.
By feeding certain drugs, again
producing an abnormal condition,
the cow may be forced to give milk
with test much above the average.
In either of these cases, however,
the average for the lactation will be
the same as any previous lactation
period of the same COW. You cannot
change the fat test by feeding. If
your herd is giving low testing milk
and you want high testing milk, there
are two courses to pursue. One is to
sell off the whole herd and buy new
one consisting of high testing COWS,
and the other is to get bull from
line of ancestors that show high tests
Breed your COWS to this bull, and
save the heifer calves. When the
heifers come into milk they will give
higher testing milk than their dams,
and by keeping this up for number
of generations, very high testing
herd can be produced.

to what feed to use to increase the
quality of our milk. No matter what
we feed or how we handle our herd
we cannot improve the quality except
for very short periods. Every COW
has certain capacity for producing
milk and fat. That function is bred
in the COW. She may go considerably
below the high limit by improper
feeding and management, but in no
case can she be forced beyond that
limit except for very short periods.
Cows normally giving milk that
averages four per cent test can be
forced to give milk with an excessive
high test by first fattening the animal
previous to calving and then feeding
large quantities of high protein con-

The following is taken from Wis
consin Bulletin 228, and is a part OF
the Directors Report for the year
1911-12:
"To determine what would be the
specific physiological action Of rations
restricted to single plant sources upon
COWS subjected to the strain of repro
duction, an experiment was under
taken five years ago by the depart
ments of Agricultural Chemistry and
Animal Husbandry. Young heifers
we're fed chemically balanced rations
from the corn, the oat, and the wheat
plant. AS the animals reach physi-
illogical maturity and underwent the
strain of reproduction, it became
evident that the ration from the wheat
was strikingly deficient, the wheat
fed mothers producing either dead or
weak, understood offspring. The re-
SUITS of the earlier work on this prob
lem have been reported in Research
Bulletin u and in preceding Director s
Reports.
During the past year attention
has been concentrated on attempts to
determine the cause of the disastrous
effects of the wheat ration. In addi
ton to the ration prepared exclusive
ly from the wheat plant, rations were
fed consisting either of wheat grain
or of wheat straw. together with parts
of other plants. For example, off,

CARB0LIC ACID FOR CONTAGIOUS
ABORTION.

Bulletin No. 80 by the Montana
Agricultural College Experiment Sta
ton gives some notes on internal use
of carbolic acid for the prevention of
contagious abortion in cattle.
Carbolic acid in various doses was
injected hypodermically or given in
the feed, and the same treatment was
given the males and the females. The
males in addition received thorough
disinfection of the penus and sheath
both before and after serving. This
was done in order to protect any
uninfected female from becoming in
fected at the time of service.
The conclusions given by the Sta
ton are as follows:
l. Carbolic acid, either fed in
solution or injected hypodermically,
seems TO be a specific against con-

with equal parts of wheat straw and
alfalfa hay. Upon ratios consisting
of the wheat grain and corn stover,
normal, healthy calves we're produced.
AS soon as wheat straw formed the
sole roughage, no matter what grain
was used, invariably the urines be-
came acid and weak understood off
spring resulted. However, upon the
ration consisting of the corn grain
with equal parts of wheat straw and
alfalaf hay, normal calves we're pro-
duced.
''These results tend to indicate
that the deficiency of the wheat plant
is not due to toxicity of any part of
the plant, or to an insuf6ciency of
the proteins, but rather to the acid
condition imposed on the animal,
caused by an insufficient supply of
lime and other alkaline substances in
the roughage. While this disastrous
effect of the wheat straw was over
come by the addition of alfalfa hay,
especially high in such alkaline sub
stances, previous work indicates that
it cannot be remedied by the addi-
ton of alkaline carbonates. Work
is being continued along various
lines to throw further light on these
problems of great physiological i'm
portance.

Will Test searchlight

A million candle power electric
lamp, shining down from the summit
OF Pixies Peak, miles away, will be the
sole source of street lighting for
the business district OF Colorado
Springs for several minutes each night
during the next week or two.
The Cog road officials hit upon this
plan OF testing the brilliancy OF the
great searchlight on the summit of
the Peak, and have obtained the con-
sent OF the city officials to try the
experiment.
At 8 O'Clock In the evening, while
the tests are 10 progress, all street
lights 10 the business section will be
turned of for several minutes. and
the rays OF the searchlight will be
played squarely on the city. The moon,
which is nearly full, can not be turned
off unless there are clouds 10 the sky,
but the searchlight, it is believed. will
cast distinct shadows here 10 spite OF
the competition.
