Government Ownership Problems.

Former Senator Bristow said that il

government than if it were run on
business methods, while the late Sen
ator Aldrich s estimate of an annual
loss of 100000, 900 that could be saved

has never been denied. Government
owned railroads in Europe are striking

operation today it is due to govern
ment restriction or else TO a manifest
desire OF the railroads to benefit the

president Of the New York Central
railroad, recently told what it meant
TO the railroads to provide freight ears
for flush times. During the SO months
from January, 1908, to the beginning
Of the present year there were only
| five months when there was any freight
car shortage, while III the remaining
81 months there were thousands Of
! Idle ears on the tracks. In April, 1908.
1 the maximum total Of idle ears was

NATIONAL FOREST ENLARGED.
About $4,000 Acres Added to Whitman
Preserve in Oregon.

Acting under the authority of Il spe-
clal act of congress approved Sept. $,
1916, the President has, on recommen-
dation of the secretary of agriculture,
signed proclamation adding approx
mately 10000 acres to the Whitman
national forest in Oregon. The lands
involved are situated on the divide be
tween the John Day, Powder and Burnt
rivers, in east-central Oregon.
Over 1000 acres consist of timber
lands which were included in patented
entries. As the result of suits brought
by the United States. the patents for
these entries Were cancelled by the
courts because they were acquired
through fraud or mistake, and thr
ownership. The Cancelled claims carry
a total estimated stand of nearly 40
100000 feet, board measure, Of timber.
Much of the other land included il
the addition is privately owned. II
consists largely of cut-over timberland
on which the timber growth is rapidly
reproducing. One portion Of the act
&C Congress authorizing the addition
provides especially for the exchange OF
government timber for privately owned
lands in the Whitman national forest
which may be chiefly valuable for the
production of timber or the protectio.
of strcamflow. Several applications fol
exchanges of this character have al
ready been submitted.

MAINE BOUNDARY.
Bill in Legislature for Cooperative
Survey of the Line.

CONCORD, ~ H., Feb. 13-Efforts
are being made at this session of the
Legislature to get a cooperative survey
Of the boundary line between Maine
and New Hampshire. The act intro
duced provides that the governor shall
be authorized to appoint surveyor who
viii work with surveyor appointed
by Maine TO ascertain and mark the
dividing line The sum of $4,000 is
proposed for the work, if q like sum IS
appropriated by Maine.
The first line was run many years
prior to n re-survey in 1874, Sir Ferdl-
nand Gorges was granted by the King
OF England the portion now called
Maine and Capt. John Mason the por-
tion named New Hampshire From
that time until the present there have
always been disputes between the states
, and the border towns.
There have been many law suits be-
cause there was no permanent boun-
diary and no Typographical map of
Maine, nothing definite but some blazed
trees or stone markers to show where
the original boundary was, if Il had
ever been marked. II is claimed that
the rc-survey Of 1874 was superficial.
/ At that time there were few pulp
mills along the Androseoggin river, but
for the last - years the wood has re-
quircd constant cutting along the Dor
der towns. In many instances unscrup
/ ulous people have cut down a tree
which happened to mark the boundary
The boundary line has thus been prac
tically destroyed.
The grant made by the king started
at the mouth of the PIseataquis har
Dor. through Salmon Falls for 100 miles
porthward and south to the Isle OF
Shoals. When Maine became state
the line was oblitcrated. Both state:
made Il survey i'll 1913, but the line
was never run end for end, and as &
result, there have been many disputes
There have never been. since the two
commonwealth were states, town on
/ county corners marked by monuments
and made permanent.
Before many years Portsmouth an(
kitterv viii have to have a new bridge
and if the survey is made, it will over
come some difficulties regarding tn,
cost of the bridge by the various par
ties involved. Several of the pape
companies and others interested in New
Hampshire are anxious to have III,
boundary defined once and for all time
The line would he run, if the bills Q,
through from the Isles of Shoal
straight up between the two states.

COSTS ABOUT S10O
A YEAR TO KEEP COW
To Be Exact the Amount Is
S9S.12, According to COun-
ty Agent Dana
COW OUGHT TO GIVE
5,GS7 POUNDS OF MILK
Estimate Is Based on Figures Furnished
by E. S. Brigham, Commissioner of
Agriculture, Compiled from Cow Test
ing Association Records.

URLINGTON, Feb. 13.-County
Agent j. W. Dana, in his February bul-
letin, estimates the cost of keeping a
COW for one year at S9S.l2. His estl-
mate is based on figures furnished by
+. $. Brigham, commissioner Of agrl-
culture, compiled from Cow Test as
ISOLATION records and estimates OF the
Boston chamber Of commerce.
He saws, in answer to the question
- How can we lower our cost Of milk
production -:
81. BY using better methods Of
buving. i. e., by buying in the summer
tor cash. This does not mean YOU must
pay cash with the order but instead
when the goods come. They may be
ordered to be delivered ut almost any
time that YOU wish.
80. BY raising and breeding more
legumes such as alfalfa, clover, SOY
beans, etc.
-. BY eliminating the poor cows
and thus raising the average produc-
ton Joining Cow Test association
is the cheapest, quickest and easiest
way to do this.
~. BY using pure bred sire from
high producing ancestry.
81 DO you know what per cent of the
farmers in this country keep pure
bred bull Less than 10; and say,
only 80 per cent have silos. and only
eight per cent have one or more pure
bred cows About six per- cent test
their cows through Cow Test associa-
ton. Can we improve this record
elf Won patronize a creamery let Us
see what il cost YOU 10 produce butter

after erediting a cow with skim
milk az 80 cents cwt. and manure
and calf at S1J We find that If she
gives 5000 pounds OF three per cent
milk, q pound of fat i'll her milk costs
300 cents; if her milk tests five pei

Are YOU selling fat? DO YOU know
what the milk Of each cow tests
'.If a cow gives 1000 pounds OF
milk per year, about the state average
aud it costs 800 to keen her. a littl,
less than the state average, loo pounds

see what factors we have to consider
The following figures were furnishe
by Commissioner of Agriculture f. ;
Brigham and were COMPLIED from Cox
Test association records and BostoI
chamber Of commerce estimates:
The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1917-02-13

"'These cows averaged 5,0S7 pounds
of milk The cost per 100 pounds
then after crediting the cow with calf
and manure was $l.63. The average
price received was $l.59. If these
cows had averaged 5000 pounds Of
milk they could have produced it for
+ OF, a proht of % cents instead of
a loss of four cents hundred.
Wouldn't it have paid them to keep
better COWS and feed more economic
ally or else stop keeping cows alto
2ether!
"These same cows made $50 pounds
Of fat. Crediting them with the skim
milk at 10 cents a hundred and calf
and manure at $l5 we find that the
total cost Of the fat was 500 or - 4
cents per pound. The average price
paid was 35.7 cents. However if
these cows had averaged even 250
pounds Of fat instead of go the cost
would only be 25.2 cents making a
profit OF 80 cents instead of SIS cents
PER pound.
Moral: Lower your production
cost as far as possible, then figure the
value of your milk on both the milk
and butter basis and then sell accord
ingly.
