c. P. Norgord, commissioner of agri- culture of Wisconsin, speaking before the Guernsey Breeders association of Waukesha county, at Waukesha, set forth a new plan whereby the tuber- culin test of cattle will not only be of greater value as an aid to science, but will be of increased commercial value and at the same time a greater pro- lection to breeder, seller and buyer.
 Under the plan proposed by Com missioner Norgord tuberculin-tested cattle will not only be given a rating above those not tested, but this rating will be interstate and will be main tained and backed by veterinary de- partments of all states. The plan al ready has been indorsed by number of states.
 A campaign of education will be conducted in furtherance of the plan, and cooperating with the Wisconsin department of agriculture in this will be the College of Agriculture of Uni versity of Wisconsin, the United States department of agriculture. and the Wisconsin Live Stock Breeders association and all county breeders organizations of Wisconsin.
 Under the new order of things the herds coming under the test and found free from tuberculosis will be certified as Glass A" herds, and will be so listed in all states. Therefore, it will be an inducement for the breeder to voluntarily acquire this certification as soon as possible.
 In setting forth his plan, Commis- sioner Norgord said:
 Tn an effort to simplify the inter state inspection of cattle and to en- courage the use of the tuberculin test, the Wisconsin department of agricul- ture is hereby submitting a plan whereby it may be possible to make shipments from herds which are

Curious "Silver Sword"

One of the most curious plants in the world, and one of the greatest in. terest to all botanists, is the silver sword. This exceedingly rare plant. with it's magnificent silver spines and handsome crest. may still be found in profusion in the upper part of Kaupo gap, the southern outlet of the vast ex. tinct crater of Haleakala. on the island of Maui. one of the Hawaiian group. It flowers from July to October and occurs hardly anywhere else in the world. Even stranger is the variety known as tho green sword. which oc.

BATTERIES WILL
FREEZE VERY QUICKLY

IN winter. more than any other time
OF the year, the motorist should give
his storage battery special attention.
Discussing the problem OF winter care
Of storage batteries, H. n. Hayes, the
local Willard expert, said:
in winter the storage battery IS
called upon to do about twice IS n uch
work as IN summit The lights are
used a great deal more and the engine
usually starts great deal harder IN
winter than in SUI -ler be u
retion is more difficult. The battery
has TO supply power for both Of these
for bOtn the starting and the light
ing
THE average motorist does not run
his car as FAR nor as fast in winter
as in summer. so the generator does
not get the opportunity 10 restore
ing. The result is that If the motorist
is not careful, the battery Slowly 'oses
its charge
''Since a discharged battery freezes
at about 20 degrees above zero, freez-
ing can best be avoided by keeping
the battery fully charged.
The chief points in the winter care
OF the battery for the motOrist TO re-
member are: First test the battery
frequently with a hydrOmeter. second,
conserve the power as much as possible,
and third. keep in touch with the serV-
ice station.
The hydrometer viii show infallibiy
whether the battery is being kept fully
charged-that is, whether the generator
is restorinC as much energy to The bat
terry as is being used.
Printing the engine before starting
IL viii spare the battery a great deal
OF work This ought TO be done every
in winter before the car Is
taken out Lights should be used as
sparingly as possible. OF course the
battery should be kept filled with dis

Fifth avenue at 42d street 81 IL per

Akron Output Is Gaining

More than 11.522. $50 tires viii

S2O3, 100000. an increase Of IS per-
cent over the preceding year Some
idea Of the vastness Of the industry
may be had from the fact that 1885,

The city. which in 1910 had
population Of only $4,000. now has
5I.I50 people employed in rubber
manufacture. Floor space covering

than $500, 600 have been added in

city allows a daily output OF $4,000

Increased Production
In Oil Fields Mdu
Mean Cheaper Gasoline

It is conservatively estimated By
men who are interested in extract
ing gasoline from natural gas that
the total yield from this source for
1916 viii be considerably in excess
of 100000, GOO gallons, as compared
with about 5000. 900 gallons for last
year Although Oklahoma leads in
this industry. big strides are being
made in Texas and Louisiana in
building the plants for taking gaso-
line from natural gas. 1t is stated
that the natural gas resources OF
Texas, in their present stage OF de-
velopment, are capable of yielding
many times the total production OF
casing-head gasoline Of the whole
country at this time. In both Okla
hOma and Texas the gasoline con-
tent of natural gas of most OF the
fields runs high. the average being
a little more than three and one-half
gallons Of gasoline from every 1000
feet of natural gas.
