How Good Cows Pay.

It is well known that dairy cows, to
be profitable, must be comparatively
large producers, yet few people fully
realize the remarkable rate at which
income advances as production in
creases. Tabulations of 5,5S7 cow-test-
ing association records from various
parts of the United States, covering a
period of four years, show that as the
average butterfat production increased
from $50 to 200 pounds, the income
over cost of feed advanced from $21
to $34; that is, a gain Of so pounds, or
33h per cent, in production gave an
increased income of 60 per cent over
feed cost. The next gain of 80 pounds
raised the income over cost of feed to
$50, the next to 500, the next to $74,
the next to $97, the next to 500, and
the last to $11S.
AS the butterfat production increased
from $50 pounds to 300 pounds, the in
come over cost of feed advanced from
S21 to 1858; in other words, as produc-
ton doubled income over cost of feed
advanced three times. When the but
terfat production increased from 15O
pounds to 450 pounds-that is, trebled
the income over cost of feed adj
vanced from $21 to 800, or almost five
times as much.

Wars Need for Good Cows.

The profitable dairy COW helps to
feed our armed forces and will help us
win the war, but the low-producingr
improbable scrub is little better than
a Stacker. The Improbable cow may
enjoy perfect health and have large
appetite; she may even belong to one
Of the best COW families, but If she Is
not an economical producer she should
be converted into meat.
The present, however, is not the time
to dispose of dairy herds; rather it is
the time to enlarge and improve them.
The city, the country, and the army
need more dairy products; the dairy
COW also assists greatly in maintaining
permanent soil fertility; and the care
fully selected, well-bred, well-fed dairy
COW may still be kept at profit. Let
the slogan, therefore, be: Careful Sc
lection, intelligent breeding, and skill
fUl feeding.

RAISE MISCHIEF WITH WIRES
Remarkable Effect of Aurora Borealis
on the Telegraph Wires of
the Country.

When the aurora borealis, or "north-
ern lights" pay us a visit there Is
trouble on all the telegraph and tele-
phone lines. The reason for this
seems to be that the aurora borealis
which Is really an unusual electric
emanation from the sun, sets up alb
normal earth currents. The strength
of these currents has been measured
many times and found to have poten-
tial varying between 425 volts positive
and 225 volts negative and resist
ance of about 1000 ohms.
Donald McNicol, assistant electrical
engineer of the Postal Telegraph COM
pany, who has given much study to
this subject, made an official report in
1892, quoted in the Electrical Expert
menter, in which he described the eff
fects of earth currents on the ten At
tantic cables then in existence. Most
affected was that from Brest to Mique-
lon island, and the disturbances were
greater at the western than at the
eastern end, so that often st. Pierre
could send messages to Brest but could
not receive any.
Long cables were more affected than
short ones, southerly ones more than
northerly ones, and the abnormal cur
rents seemed to travel mostly from
east to west. Sometimes the earth cur
rents are so strong that they injure the
condensers. But they are most erratic
in their nature and behavior.
