LIVES SAVED BY TELEPHONE.
One Man Drank Poison, and Another
Severed Four Arteries.

Within the last several days two lives
have been saved over the telephone.
Rev. ]. W. Lentz, OF Orders, Breth-
rem minister, took poison by mistake tor
his medicine. No physician being here,
his family got instruction from distant
physician. Antidotes were administered
and his life was saved.
William Mionich, in Pendleton county
tried to cut bullet from the breach of
gun. The knife slipped and severed four
arteries in his wrist. He was in danger
OF bleeding to death. DR.. Meyers, at
Oak Flat, six miles away, gave instruc-
tions over the phone. Another life was
saved. Mr.. Mionich is rs years old.
So daily are valuable lives preserved
and saved by the use of the Jefferson
County Telephone.

A record OF the total amount OF milk
which a COW has produced in speci'
fed length of time is valuable, while
a record of the test OF the milk alone
would be OF no value. Sometimes too
much emphasis is placed on the test OF
the milk without knowing how much
milk was produced The COW which
produces the richest milk does not
necessarily produce the largest guam,
tity of fat and may not be as profitable
as the COW yielding milk containing a
small per cent of fat The fat test
must always be associated with the
amount of milk produced to be OF
value.
Fat tests may be secured by testing
the milk for two consecutive days in
each month and using the test TO cal
culate the amount of milk produced
during the month. The milkings for
these two days can either be taken
separately or a composite sample may
be made. small Babcock tester with
directions for operating may be Sc
cured for about $500, and any one can
learn to operate it.
A record of the amount Of milk and
fat produced by each cow will be
found to be interesting and valuable.
1t is a common experience that cows
formerly thought to be profitable were
improbable, and the reverse. In
communities where records are kept,
COWS that are good producers will sell
for good prices and the low producers
usually go TO the butcher.
In order to know the relative profits
from each COW, it is important to know
the amount OF feed consumed and such
records can be easily kept. The largest
producer is not necessarily the most
economical producer, though usually
that is the case Where milk records
are Aept, there is less danger OF over
feeding and undertaking cows, If the
amount of milk produced is taken into
consideration. 1t also becomes pos
sible to detect quickly when cows are
sick, as a decline in the amount Of
milk produced usually accompanies
sickness.
Any che interested in keeping dairy
herd records may receive blanks and
instructions by addressing the Depart
ment of Agricultural Extension.
The Experiment Station, through the
Department of Dairy Husbandry is at
present supervising the official testing
OF 40 pure-bred dairy cows, all of which
are making milk and butterfat records
for a year Tw2nty-One OF these are
Guernseys and the remainder are Ayr
shires, and some very creditable rec
ords are being made by the COWS. II not
only increases the value Of the herd
and offspring, but is a large factor in
developing the milk-making capacity
Of the COWS.
The Department OF Dairy Husbandry
is prepared to send out supervisors
whenever desired to supervise such
tests for the various breed associations
to whom applications should be made
for the beginning of an official test. II
interested, address the Department of
Dairy Husbandry for information re
garding this work.

The B. & o. Railroad has just put INTO
service on the division between Cumoer-
land and Grafton an enormous locomo-
tive of the 5000 class known as de-
capod. 1t was built by the Baldwin
Locomotive Works in Philadelphia.
The engine is so big that its cab had TO
be taken off in order that it could pass
through the tunnels. This locomotive
is the largest owned by the B. & .. and
will be tested in carrying freight between
Cumberland and Grafton. The monster
has ten drivers, five on each side. 1t has
a So inch wheel-a small wheel-best
adapted to hill climbing. The tank holds
10 tons of coal and 1000 gallons OF water
The decapod is designed to pull a train
of $3.50 tons, over the big l7-mile grade.
Enginemen are watching the actions oil
the engine closely. The bell on the
engine is in front of the head light and
operated by compressed air.
