619 Lbs. of Milk in Week.

Noting the remarkable amount of milk
produced by one COW in his herd Nelson
Stockman, dairyman for Col Austin E.
Baughman, at Poplar Terrace, near this
city, decided to make test of the guam
titles of milk secured. In 7 days. with
two milkings day, Mr.. Stockman found
to his surprise that the COW produced SIS
pounds of milk which is considered an
unusual record
The COW was raised on the Baughman
farm and always has been a good pro-
Queer. She is grade Holsten At SIS
pounds of milk week, it is seen that the
average quantity secured at each milking
was 81 pounds. Milk weighs about or
81 pounds to the gallon, so that the COW
gave in the neighborhood of four and a
half gallons of milk twice day. No

B. g. O. Claim Upheld.

The Public Service Commission has no
authority to regulate and control the n,
nancial operations Of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company, under an opin-
ion handed down in the Court OF APP
peals.
This decision limits the authority OF the
commission over the finances OF the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad to determining
whether proposed security issues are bona
fide. In questions of business wisdom,
such as fixing the amount of outstanding
securities. the prices at which new secu-
rites are to be sold and how thu: pro-
ceeds shall be applied, the commission is
stripped of authority.

RESPONSIVE TO THE PEOPLE

The Legislature of Oregon last
week elected United States Senator.
The Legislature is Republican but
Democrat In the Senatorial prefer
ence primary received a majority of
tho votes. The Legislature, there
fore. though Republican, responsive
TO the will of the people, sends a
Democrat. Mr.. Henry Lane, to the
United States Senate.
In Nebraska the Legislature is
Democratic, while a Progressive Re-
publican received the majority Of
votes In the senatorial preference
primary. And In this case we have a
Democratic Legislature electing a
Progressive Republican to the Sen
ate.
Commenting upon these two in
stances, the Louisville Post harks
back to the Illinois Legislature of q
few years ago that elected Lorlmer,
and to the Kentucky Legislature that
elected Bradley, and asks what these
two states will do in tho future, and
finds a comparison not very pleasing.
Let us hope for equal responsive
ness in tho future.
