cow SETS A BUTTER RECORD
HOlstein Friesian Produces so Pounds
in Seven-Day Test-Others Have
Exceeded 40 Pounds.

Ithaca, N. Y, Jan 22-Segis Fayne
Johanna, Holstein-Friesian cow,
owned by Oliver Cabana, Jr., one of
Butfalo's foremost business men, is
worlds champion, having produced in
an onlcial test the equivalent of over
SO pounds of butter in one week.
The test was conducted under the
supervision of the New York state ag-
ricultural college here, and the cows
performance has been formally chron-
lcled in the official records of the Hol-
stein Friesian Association of Amer
lea.
Up to this time no other cow of any
breed has been able to attain the so
pound mark.
Johannes record for the seven con-
secutive days is equal to 5O.6S pounds
OF butter, and she produced in the
same time 1908 pounds of milk. The
average butter-fat percentage was
5.547.
The previous highest record was
46.77 pounds, made by cow owned by
NJ J. Smiley Of Belle Fourche, N. d.,
and falls 3,91 pounds below the mark
set by the new champion.
The seven-day test began Dec. %.
at Pine Grove Farms, Elma Center,
N. Y. On the strength of the showing
made it was decided to continue the
test in the hope also of securing the
30-day record.
1t was believed this would be easily
accomplished, provided weather condi-
lions remained favorable. On the 18th
day, sudden change in the tempera-
ture occurred. The mercury drcpped
to zero and blizzard set IT.. DESPITE
this adverse circumstance, the figures
at the end of the 18th day showed but
slight falling off and were as fol-
lows: Butter, 94.415 pounds; milk,
1,458.1 pounds; per cent fat, 5,225.
What the 50-pound mark really
means can be realized from the fact
that there are today only Is other
cows in the world that, under official
test, have managed to cross the 40
pound line. These are all Holsteins.
The new record shows that Segis
Johanna would produce nearly as.
much butter in two weeks as the av-
erage cow does in one year.
The test which captured world hon
ors for the big Holstein was conducted
through the agency of Malcolm H.
Gardner, superintendent of Advanced
Registry for the Holstein-F riesian as
ISOLATION, and the New York agricul-
tural college. Up to the 18th day five
representatives from this college were
present on the ground.

Girls Game.


This game was the first the girl.
have played. It was on a strange
floor, against an experienced team and
one of their best players was absent
That was enough to give almost any
team an excuse for losing. Therefor.
the score was 20-8.. At the end
the first half the score was "a in our
favor, but the girls used all their re-
serve strength; something that Otter
happens with inexperienced teams
The second half the Long Prairie CEN
ter broke away and conducted the
mainder of the game to suit her
any position in the hall with equal
convenience and pleasure.
The chief criticism on the game is
one made on all girls games-to much
held ball. Nevertheless, the Sank
Centre team is expected to put up
much better game with little moro
practice, and the t0Hn can look for
a victory with the next trial.

Correct Heat Records.

Why docs weather bureau Their
mometer show lower temperatures In
hot weather than the thermometer at
the corner drug store? asks the Popu-
lar Science Monthly. When discrepan-
cies exist, they are due chiefly to the
fact that the official thermometer is
installed in q wooden cage, where 1t
is open to the air, but screened from
both direct sunshine and the heat re-
fiected from surrounding buildings.
Only under such conditions does a
thermometer measure accurately the
temperature of the air.
A thermometer in the sunshine be-
comes much hotter than the air around
it, and it's reading simply tells us how
hot the instrument is, not how hot
the air is. In large cities the weather
bureau thermometer is often installed
on the roof of high building, where
the temperatures differ somewhat from
those prevailing at the street level. The
object sought in this arrangement Is
to obtain q record of the natural tenn
perature of the locality in general,
rather than the artificial temperatures
of the city.
