(By FRANK q. MENKE.)
The 1915 football season probably
will answer the three.year.old ques.
tion:
Was II the wizardry Of Percy Haugh.
ton as coach, or was II the individual
brilliancy Of the players that made
Harvard supreme in the football
world?
Some there are who give the major
portion Of the credit for Harvard
showing in the past to HaughtOn.

other crimson football satellites that
caused Harvard to shine 80 brilliantly.
They assert that with such material

Graduations hit Harvard q harder

for his 1915 team only three Of the
men who started against Yale last No
vember, and only ten Of the 25 men
who made up the varsity squad OF

ATTENTION GIVEN TO COWS
Astonishing How Many OaIrymen Are
Keeping Bovnes Instead of Ami
mails Keeping Them.

The man who is making money In
dairying is the man Who thinks. II is
astonishing how many men are keep
ing cows instead OF cows keeping
them, because the men do not think.
A thinking man will not keep COWS
tHat do not pay a prodt on the feed
they consume. There is no way to
determine the value OF the individual
cows except by keeping an account
Of the cost of feed and the value OF
the products OF each COW.
This method often leAds TO increas-
ing the profits by more judicious
feeding and more efficient milking, or
in other words 1t requires giving each
COW individual attention.
Some dairymen may think that this
work requires too much time. but
after trying II out they are usually
surprised to fine how little time II
really takes TO keep an accurate rec
ord of the business. Every dairymaD
should be a business man.
