PRIZE COW; SO QUARTS A DAY
Butter Product For One Week Is
26.47 Pounds.

Wilkesbarre, Pa.-William D. Rob-
inson, a farmer near here, has the
prize COW of Pennsylvania Her sup
ply of milk is so great that the State
College of Agriculture has token her
record as subject of analysis, and IL
is declared that she is the greatest
butter producer in the country.
Professor Painter, of the State col
lege, who made a study of the cow s
production of milk, found that she gave
536 pounds of milk in a week, or an
average of more that SO quarts for
each of the seven days she was under
test.
This milk produced 26.47 pounds of
butter, and at the average market
price of 40 cents a pound, her yield is
worth nearly $11 week.
The COW is not yet five years old,
and is declared to be the finest speci-
men of Alderney in the state.

Washington, d. CA scatbing in
dictment Of the present-day manage
ment Of the Forest service is con-
tanned in memorandum filed with the
secretary OF agriculture by Daniel W.
Adams, who. after five years as expert
lumberman in the forestry bureau,
voluntarily retires to engage in pri-
vate business Impfacticability. bad
business management, improvidence
and an excess Of bureaucratic methods
are the general charges he makes.
Mr. Adams gives names, cites in
stances and refers to records to sub
stantiate bis charges. Though less
sensational than the charges often
made by the late Senator Hepburn, of
Idaho, the charges Of Mr.. Adams are
convincing, because they are made by
competent man who spent five years
in the service.
Dealing with the timber question,
he says that the head Of the timber d.
vision is one Of the most experienced
and best-informed lumbermen in the
country, but his suggestions are large
~ disregarded by students in the serv-
ice and acute disagreements ensue
whenever the government undertakes
to sell its timber to private lumber
men. He charges that the personnel
Of the forest service is composed of SO
many theorists and highly-trained
young men who have injected such
senseless and impossible regulations
that the sawmill men purchase timber
only when their privately owned tim
Der Is exhausted" As these young
men conduct the field work, Mr..
Adams alleges, it often costs the for
est service three times as much as the
stumpage is worth to designate the
trees which the purchaser may cut.
In one Nuisance the forest service got
81 thousand for lot Of timber, and
it cost the government 81 a thousand
to mark the timber, prior to cutting.
There is provision of law under
which the government gives away tim
Der for domestic use to persons living
near the national forests. 1t the Deer
Lodge forest in 1912 Mr.. Adams
shows that it cost the government SO a
thousand feet to give away timber,
because Of the impracticability of for
est ranges.
