WORK OF ACTORS APPRECIATED
Girls Was Uproariously Funny - To
niokt The Deep Purple.

To a large audience last night the
Klark-Crban performance of Girls was
q treat. 1t was blithe. irresponsible
comedy, dramatically interesting and
uproariously funny. \ play without q
problem. white slavery. a divorce. or a
gentleman crook is rare these DAYS, hut
Girls was even more remarkable III
that it is a comedy without lie rs a
basis. ltpoked subtle fun at the man
nishness of some women and proved
that even the most independent of we-
men likes to be mastered by. a man. The
audience appreciated the beauty OF the
play and the fine work of the actors.
The story centered around Edgar Holt,
played by Mr.. Klark, and Pamela Cor
don, by Miss CesiI; but the entire east
was excellent. Tonight this company
is to present The Deep Purple by Paul
Armstrong, the author of Alias Jimmy
valentine.
From dramatic standpoint, no play
in the entire repertoire of the Klark-
Urban company will eclipse The Deep
Purple. Its Chicago record has never
been duplicated by any other play. The
Klark Urban company has the habit. of
presenting only the best plays, and OF
giving each play production worthy
of higher priced attraction. Plays of
as high character presented by rs
capable a company at as. low price
is rare combination.

What Makes Milk
and Butter Have
Yellow Color

That the rich yellow color demand
ed by the public in dairy products
is primarily due to the character Of
the cows feed is demonstrated by
recent experiments carried on by the
department in cooperation with the
Missouri State Experiment Station.
For some years dairy experts have
been studying this question. Their
conclusion is that, although to some
extent a breed characteristic, the in
tensity of this yellow color may,
within certain limits, be increased or
diminished at will by changing the
animals rations.
Chemical tests show that the yell
low pigment in milk consists of sew
eral we'll known pigments found in
green plants. OF these the princip.
al one is carotin, SO called because
1t constitutes large part Of the col
oring matter of carrots. The other
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1914-08-04

yellow pigments in the milk are
known as xanthophylls. These are
found in a number OF plants includ.
ing grass but are especially abun.
dant in yellow autumn leaves.
These pigments pass directly from
the feed into the milk. This explains
the well known fact that fresh, green
grass and carrots increase the yellow
ness Of butter, the only standard by
which the average person judges It's
richness. On the other hand, a
large proportion Of these pigments is
deposited in the body fat and else
where in the COW. When the ration
is changed to one containing fewer
carotin and xanthiphyll constituents,
this boarded store is gradually drawn
upon and In consequence the yellow
ness of the milk does not diminish
so rapidly as II otherwise would.
This yellowness increases, however,
the instant the necessary plant pig
ments are restored to the ration.
Green grass is probably richer in
carotin than any other dairy feed.
Cows fed on 1t will therefore pro-
duce the highest colored butter.
Green corn, in which xanthophylls
constitute the chief pigment, will al
so produce a highly colored product.
On the other hand, a ration Of bleach
ed clover hay and yellow corn is prac-
tically devoid of yellow pigments and
the milk from cows fed upon 1t will
gradually lose its color. It is, OF
course, indisputably true that the
breed does influence the color of the
milk fat; but vary the ration and
there will be h corresponding varia-
ton in the color OF the milk fat in
each breed.
In cows of the Jersey and Guernsey
breeds the body fat is frequently Of
such deep yellow color that some
butchers and consumers look with
disfavor upon beef from these breeds.
For this prejudice there is absolute
ly no justification. The yellowness Of
the fat springs from the same causes
as the yellowness of the milk fat, and
there is no reason for objecting in
one case to the very thing that is
priced in the other.
