The percentage Of butter fat in milk
cannot be determined from the sppear-
ance Of the COW and It cannot be
changed greatly BY care or feeding.
Good care and feeding increase the
quantity Of milk given BY the cow.
hence the total butter fat produced 10
increased. The percentage Of butter
fat, however. remains fairly constant
for each individual. except that varia-
lions may occur with the period Of lac
tation, the flrst and last parts Of the
milking, and the age Of the COW.
Calculation Of Records.
The daily weights Of milk produced
BY each cow are added and the total
for the month multiplied by the per-
centage Of butter fat In the milk to
obtain the amount Of butter fat pro-
duced during the month. For exam
pie, the COW Fannie gave 1,105.6
pounds Of milk in January, 1915. and
It tested 80 per cent. Then 1,105.8 x

War Cost 10000, 900, 900 Marks.

In conclusion the article declares that
the war has cost Germany sixty billion
marks, a sum SO small in comparison
with the total estimated wealth of
$4,000, 900, 600 and an annual increase
of ten billions that the empire can
well afford to drop the demand for
decentralization
King Ludwig's declaration at Strass-
burg that Germany is still willing to
conclude an honorable peace if given
security against the repetition of an
attack by half the world is also in

Would Repatriate Belgians.
Denies Need of Indemnity.

COPENHAGEN. May 1O.-The Bava-
rian Stats Zeitung. the semi-otficial Ba-
Varian newspaper and the personal or
gan Of Premier Count Hertling, pub
fishes an inspired article denying the
necessity of Germany's demanding q
cash indemnity as one of her peace con-
ditions. Count Hertling has just re-
turned from visit to Vienna. where
he had conferences with Emperor
Charles and Foreign Minister Czernin
The German articles claims that
these conferences We're intended to find
a common ground between Count
Czernin's suggestion of peace without
annexation and Chancellor Bethmann
Hollweg's peace program.
The article in the Stats Zeitung is
regarded. in view Of the circumstances,
as important, as rejecting the ideas Of
the Bavarian prime minister. 1t sug-
gests that an agreement to supply
needed raw materials at a low price,
or perhaps free. might be substitute
for a cash indemnity. The writer goes
on to declare that an agreement to
permit German trade on its former
terms in the old markets, the return of
German ships and the surrender of
German colonies would be the equivalent
of billions of indemnity.
