MAYOR IF CORK. THROWS DART
 INTO SEA

CORK, Nov. 5-The members of
 the Irish Convention braved the dan
 gers of mines and submarines few days ago when they went by steam
 CT to the entrance of Queenstown har-
 Dor and watched the Lord Mayor of Cork perform the quaint and ancient custom of throwing the dart into the sea to define the limits of his auth ority as Admiral of the port.
 This practice originated In a char ter granted to the city by King Hen ry the Seventh in 15OO. It prescribed that every three years the ceremony be performed at point three miles outside the harbor.
 This time however, owing to sub marines and mine menace. the Mayor winked at the custom and to the great relief of his five hundred guests, sat lsfled tradition by casting the dart at the very mouth of the harbor.
 irishmen of ali creeds and classes sat down to the luncheon served on board. Noblemen broke bread be- side the democrat and all seemed on good terms. The Protestant Arch bishop of all Ireland sat beside the Catholic Archbishop of Cashel, while beside John Rermond were the Earl Of Granard and Viscount Middleton.
 After toasts had been drunk to the King and success to the convention, Sir Horace Plunkett made a hopeful speech on the conventions prospects. FWe have passed one very important stage" he said, "and are moving on to the next All we ask is natience and credit for good intentions. At. the worst we shall have narrowed the which keep Irishmen apart and Irishmel of the North and South will continue to meet on better terms than they ever did before.p
 Several hundred persons lined the Cork dock to cheer the delegates as they embarked. Redmond receiving repeated friendly demonstrations which almost drowned a few hisses from isolated groups of political op- ponents.
 After a trip down the picturesque river Lee to the Atlantic without in- on return halt was made at Queenstown where the delegates were entertained at the oldest yacht l ctuu III the world.

DOUBLE DUTY
A Dairy Ration Has Two Main Uses
Life and Product.

National Crop Improvement serylce.l
A ration is divided into two parts:
1. The part needed to maintain or
keep the animal alive.
2. The part needed to make
stored up material like wool, fat,
meat or milk.
Milk is roughly in solids, one-third
each casein (protein), fat and sugar.
The casein in milk can only be fur
nished by the protein In the food.
The fat and sugar may be derived
from either protein, fat or carbo-
hydrates.
If COW has the ability to give so
pounds of milk containing two pounds
of casein, and only gets enough pro-
, tein to make one pound OF casein,
then she will only give 25 pounds OIL
milk.
A balanced ration is one that has
Just the exact amount of protein, fat
and carbohydrates that the COW
needs. Just what this is we cannot
ever say exactly, because the amounts
vary from week to week and no TWO
cows are alike, nor are feeds alike.
! A practical ration is one that has
sufficient protein and enough tota
food to make the greatest amount Of
milk without the COW losing weight.
A commercially successful ration Ii
the one that makes the most milk o.
profit, keeps the COW healthy and en-
ables the use of the most roughage'
All the hay and ensilage COW, cal
eat will keep her alive and max
about Is pounds of milk. Any NOR
milk has to come from grain or graf
feed.
The farm can usually raise carbC
hydrates cheap in the form of hay an
ensilage, and, outside of clover, pea
f etc., protein can usually be bougf
cheaper than it can be raised.
The average price of protein feec
with 20 per cent digestible protei
was about $25 to $35 per ton befol
the war, but the prices are mut
e higher now, while hay (clover) vii
S 51s per cent digestible protein HI
d been rated at $40 per ton, so the pr

about the same as clover at $40.
