MILKING COWS BY MACHINES
New York Station Announces Result
of Experiment Extending Over
Period of Four Years.

The problem OF milking By means OF
machines is still long way flom be-

goal than five years ago, or even a
year ago. More people are thinking
about mechanical devices for tighten
ing the work of tired hands and aching
fingers than ever before.
The New York experiment station
has announced the result of a milking
machine experiment which covered
a period of over four years. The ex
periments show that including the
time required to get the machines
ready and to wash them after milking.

1856 minutes per COW, as against seven
minutes for hand milking. A higher
class of help is, however, necessary 20

WOMAN POLITICIAN UPHOLDS
CLEAN POLITICAL MACHINE

Denver, Feb. 6.-'I am a machine
politician. BY machine, mean not a
corrupt body but an organization pure
in principle and certain in purpose"
So spoke today Mrs. Gertrude M.
Lee, the first woman in the United
States to become chairman of state
central committee of one of the prin-
ciple political parties. Mrs. Lee who
was vice chairman of the Colorado
Democratic central committee, took
over the chief executive Office of her
party when Chairman George M.
Bradley resigned.
Mrs. Lee is preparing a strenuous
program for herself during her term
of office.
"A machine-in other words a
forceful and harmonious organization
is the only factor which can assure
, the success of party she said to-
day. II believe in the party above the
man. The candidate should be pledged
to certain principles and after that
the individual equati ~ should be elm
mated.
"Ny aim will be tc organize our
party and see that Democrats are re-
turned to Office in the next election.
We cannot afford to let a Republican
succeed Senator Thomas when his term
of Office expires.
Il intend to visit every county in
the state and learn the true political
conditions. / do not propose to take
anybody's word for it by mail or long
distance that everything is going fine
We cannot afford to do thai. We must

ciple's sake-not for political reasons.
The Progressive party claim to lie the
true representative of women's rights
but / hope to make the Democratic
party the leading exponent oe the
equality of women and men in poll
tics"
Mrs. Lee has been prominent in Co..
orado politics for many years. During
the last legislature she served as
member of the lower house. Her
friends say she has a genius for organ
ization, and they predict the greatest
success the Democracy has ever won
in this state under her leadership.

For Founding Homes

Paris, Feb. 6.-The chamber of dep
uties is discussing law for the re-
establishment of founding hospitals,
where babies will be received by the
state and cared for without any ques-
tions being put to their parents, as the
only means of reducing infantile NOR
tality due to crime.
The system advocated is that which
was in practice before 1862, in accord
ance with which the mother who wish
ed to part with her child went to To-
cal institution, rang bell and placed
the infant on a shelf attached to a
revolving door which opened and
closed again. No formality was re-
quired.
1t is urged that the temptation to
kill illegitimate children would thus
be removed.

the tomb. The tribes of beth the
hemispheres drank from Deaths bit
ter cup, and, still, for almost count
less years, the Reaper passed him
up. And, doubtless, in the twilight
gray, this man, still hale and strong,
would tell his visitors the way he
stayed on earth so long. 81 always
