cost was $11.77 year in the smaller
herds and $7.34 in herds of so or
more.
The value Of the labor replaced by
the milking machine was found to
vary from $2.63 per COW in herds of 10
cows or less to 1888 per cow in herds
of more than 80 cows The addition
to the time available FOR field work
due to the use of the machines was
found to vary from Is to 81 hours,
according to the size of the herds.
Attention is called to the fact that
milking machines must be operated by
competent operators and that stripping
by hand after the machine is essential
if satisfactory results are to be OBJ
tanned. The majority of the farmers
visited during the studies believe that
the milking machine has no effect one
way or another on the general welfare
of the herd.
Studies of the comparative efficiency
Of various combinations of milking
units indicate that the greatest speed
is made when one man operates and
strips after two units, each of which
milks two cows.

The Indian Question.

The Indian question in this country
has been less at the front of late than
IN former years, and many reasons
have no doubt contributed to this. 1t
is manifest that one of them has been
the commissioner of Indian affairs,
Cato Sells, whose Knowledge of the In
dams and interest in their welfare has
been apparent during his term of scrv
ice. He has taken hold of the prob
lem of adjusting the relation of the In
dams TO citizenship and modern life IN
way that is more than perfunctory.
He has been a student of this problem
not only in Washington, but among
the reservations to an extent that must
have attracted the attention Of people
interested III that particular problem.
In confirmation of general impression
comes the Indian Rights association,
which says in its 3ith annual report:

MILKING MACHINES.
Most Efficient When Used in Large
Herds. According to Studies.

That milking by machinery, com
pared with hand milking, is less eX-
pensiye, in e neral, in herds Of more
than Is COWS, and more 50 IN larger
herds, is indicated III recent studies
of the United States department Of
agriculture.
One of tn, important conditions at
fccting the economy OF milking large
herds with machines was found to be
the elimination 0. unnecessary labor.
Herds that normally required three
men for milking b. hand onli two OF
whom were required to feed and care
for the animals, required only two
men to milk by machile. The avail
able labor and the labor requirements
are therefore better balanced il the
latter cas- since the same two men
may milk and otherwise care for the
herd, the labor OF the third mixer re
uuired under the hand system being
dispensed with. This tendency toward
economy when machines are used can
not result in actual economies in all
eases when a small number Of cows
is MIXED, since depreciation, fuel
consumption, repairs, interest on in
vestment, etc, are responsible for con
siderable costs which must be charged
to the milking expense
The studies were made IL typical in
/ tensiye dairTing regions in Delaware,
4 Chcnango, and Chautauqua counties,
\. y. and among mixed dairging and
farming enterprises III Lenawee coun-
ty, Mich, Fulton county, Ohio and
Helrv county, III. 1t was found that
in herds of l. cows or less the average
/ time required to milk a cow by hand
! was fraction over ! minutes, and BY
machine fraction under minutes. In
herds OF over 90 cows, however, the
/ time required to milk by hand was 4
! fraction under minutes and By ma
chine 4.15 minutes. In milking by
thand, the average cost per COW in
herds Of - cows or less was 5000 a

The Wild Turkey.

When white men first came to Amer
lea they found Indians, corn, tobacco
and Turkeys-all wild. The turkeys
lived in the forests of Maine and west
ward as far as Nebraska and south
ward to the lower parts of Mexico.
Gonzalo Fernandez de Oviedo, the
Spanish historian. who wrote many
books about the West Indies, printed
o description of the wild turkey at To-
lcdo in the year 1927. He had seer
the males in the mating season and
supposed they were peacoeks.

if he can find another mal foolish
enough to lend him money.
