The Iowa experiment sta
ton recently conducted an
: experiment under the direct
: ion of Prof L. S. Gillette.
A pure bred Holstein bull
was mated to scrub cows and
the resulting heifers we're
bred to another pure bred
Holstein bull. Here is what
happened
Dams, 1885 milk, 161 lbs
fat; daughters, 6,313 milk,
262 lbs. fat; granddaughters
1925 milk, 431 lbs fat.
In other words the daugh-
ters of the pure bred Hol-
stein bull averaged "a per
cent more milk and 81 per
cent more fat than their
. dams and his granddaugh- |
. ters averaged 245 per cent
more milk and 168 per cent 1
, more fat than the original J.,

INFLUENZA DOWN
TO NORMAL NOW

CAMP DIX. WRlGHGTSTOWN, y. j.,
Oct. 2i.-For the FIRST time in more than
month Camp Dix last evening heard
The voices Of soldiers united in song.
From a dozen or more "Nn huts and
tents the melodies rang out in cheer
up meetings, celebrating the lifting Of
the general quarantine today, and camp
officers who have been lighting day and
night TO wipe out the influenza plague
agreed Il was the sweetest sound that
had come to their ears in many weeks.
Singing in unison has been under the
ban since the quarantine orders went
into effect at the beginning Of the influ-
enza epidemic. Sanitary officers de-
cided that the exertion Of singing was
more likely to force germs into the air
from the thrOais Of any soldiers who
might be sickening with the disease.
The sanitary rule against 0yer-crOwd-
ing clubs or meeting places VIII re-
main in effect.
With determination 10 put their cash
as we'll as their lives at the disposal Of
their country, Camp Dix soldiers have
subscribed approximately 100000 to
the Fourth Liberty Loan. The War De-
partment ruled against competitive con-
tests in the sale OF bonds 10 soldiers
and the camp eliminated any semblance
Of the drives" so that every cent Of the
subscription here represents the volun-
tary desire Of fighting men TO help
stake their own campaigns.
Charged with twice deserting the
service at this camp Private Howard r.
Thompson, Company 2S, i53d Depot
Brigade, was found guilty by a general
c0urt-martial and sentenced TO life i'm

fusing TO obey his orders proved a cost

ments for Private James r. Martin,
