HOW COW TESTING HELPS

Twelve per cent of the patrons of
the cooperative creamery of Dover,
Mimi, are members of the local COW
testing association. Though only IL
per cent of the number, they receive
about SO per cent OF the money paid
by the creamery to it's patrons. This
Is not because OF larger herds, but
because of better cows and better
dairy practices.
In January the returns to dairy
men who belonged to the cowtesting
association were $14.19 per COW,
while the returns to nonmembers
were $5.s5 per COW. AT the same
rate, the returns for a year would be
almost 500 per COW more for the
herds belonging to association men,
bers. This brought about by elm
mating low producers and feeding
the remainder according to known
production.
During the year 1914 the creamery
produced $4,000 pounds OF butter
For 1917 the quantity increased to
$780, 900 pounds. AS the number OF
cows was approximately the same
for the two years, the gain was due
to increase production per COW and
not to an increase number OF cows.
Not only was there a gain in busin-
ess for the creamery, but the patrons
were better satlfied, because, hey
received large returns.

TEACH FOREIGN WOMEN AM
ERICAN COOKING.

When women comes from coun
try where housewives of her class
have fed their families for genera
lions on black bread, olive oil and
cheese 1t is not easy in A new coun-
try to learn new methods of cook
ing. Many mistakes in selecting
proper food are apt TO be made, The
United States Department of Agri-
culture REALIZES this, and the home
demonstration agents from the de
partment and the state colleges are
teaching the foreign women how to
select and cook American food. In
Bayonne, N, j., the home-demonstra-
ton agent and the foreign workers
of the International Institute cooper
ate. 1t is found that many of the
cheap nutritious American foods are
unknown to the Italian and Polish
women. But few used oatmeal, and
those few prepared it improperly. In
one month last winter in Bayonne
25 mothers were taught by the home
demonstration agent how to prepare
oatmeal properly. In the 25 families
there were 80 children.
A Bayonne girl OF 10 years lost
her mother last fall during the in
fluenza epidemic, She has entire
charge of six younger brothers and
sisters, Her father gives her 81 a

ent has now taught the little sister

PUSHING OwN-A-COW

Bankers are cooperating with the
'icultural agent ih jefferson Davis

farmers, and the agent is preaching
the gospel of better live stock. In
the fall OF 1918 he bought five car

Wisconsin. These dairy animals
were widely distributed among the
farmers, one or two head going to

the owners OF these pure breds that
the agent is already taking orders

should be remembered that this

for so gallons OF water, or practical

Calvir, Coolidge
the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Apropos of our next Presidential
campaign, which is now on, it seems
to me not only very unwise, but
puerile, TO consider in any great meas
ure to start with-prompted by senti-
mcnt-the particular one of these
forty-eight sovereign states in which a
possible candidate may have been
born. 1t seems enough, and, moreover,
to constitute perfect understanding.
to first leave out all matter Of senti-
ment and direct our forces, the strong
est imaginable, to the discovery Of
the man who is the most powerful
absolutely powerful mentally and
physically-to perform completely the
tremendous duties and carry the in
desccibable responsibilities which he
must meet and discharge during his
term of office.
Calvin Coolidge has demonstrated to
the world that in an intellectual and
executive sense he is man absolutely
and unreservedly of the Lincoln and
Roosevelt type, and such as we have
not had in the White House since the
days of those two patriots.

The Treaty Mess

A mess the administration and
it's foolish supporters have made out
of the treaty matter. If there had
been a deliberate plan to wreck the
covenant project it could scarcely
have been carried out as effectively
as has been done by those who have
talked long and loudly in favor of
league of peace.
The President Numbered when he
went to Europe. He could have
gained more if he had been willing
to act through other men. He blum
dered when he refused to take his
partner in treaty-making, or any
one else, into consultation. He blum
dered by having no plan. He blum
dered when he decided that cove
nant and treaty should be found in
one instrument. He blundered when
he boasted that he would so arrange
things as to compel acceptance of
his will as law.
Coming home, he Numbered further
by thinking he could coerce men of
independent minds into doing that
which both their minds and their
consciences condemned. He blum
dered by pursuing a policy of i'm
possible secrecy. He Numbered
when he stubbornly refused to con-
slider the adoption of reservations
which in the main merely re-
declared what he held was in the
treaty either expressly or by impli-
cation. He Numbered by going on
his journey across the continent. He
finally has blundered by leading his
partlsans to a pass wherein they are
in mood to kill the whole treaty.
If the treaty and the covenant
are beaten the credit or discredit
will not be due to Senator Borah
and his "battalion Of DEATH" but to
Senator Hitchcock and his like. The
feservatlonlsts are not the enemies
of ratification and never have been;
they are not the enemies of a
league of peace and never have
been. They have struggled for six
months to save the treaty and the
good in the covenant. They had
sanity enough to foresee that what
the President proposed could not be
done-that this country would enter
into no international agreement I'M
less it was clear that in so doing it
did not surrender its judgment and
reasonable liberty of future national
action. The Constitution forbade
such q surrender, and all treaties
must be in accord with the Consti-
tuition.

"A Fool Named Marx''
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: You've got Karl Marx all
wrong, writes +. Slovenian jr, VINO
advises you to go and get Marks books
and wise yourself up. You said that
Marx took some historical instances
and then deduced general laws. But
his general laws were not true. You
said he plotted a lot of curves, but the
curves failed to develop. The unex
pected far outweighed the expected re-
suits. You are right in this; indeed
it is maxim Of political economy. ono
that is demonstrated every day. Everv
artificial program, such as Marxianisn
prohibition or single tax, when put in
practice confounds the fans" who he.
lieved in it.
SO it was with Marx and his fool
theories. He said that the middle class
would disappear by natural processes
leaving only the proletariat and tho
great capitalists. The truth is that t6e
middle class has steadily grown. and
on the day set by Marx for It's evanish-
ment it Is the greatest class II TIA
world. In America there were twen-,,
million individuals VINO bought bonds
last year. Marxianism belongs IN
class with free silver, phrenology. tur-
Tie serum, paper bag cookery and o.he-
things that were going to save the
country. Why, only six years ago We
discovered that benzoate OF soda w.
gong to exterminate the race in ono
generatlon' And we were about ready
to elect Doc Wiley President on The
issue that he would take the beazoate
OF soda out Of the poor mans catsu,.
once knew farmer who rad the
theory that soap would exterminate
prairie dogs. After he had fed the
pests about carload of his "pizen"
he discovered that it made 'em fat. II
was their favorite grub. Marx had a
theory that "Das Kapital" would ex
terminate the middle class. But it is
their fayorite dish; they have fattened
and multiplied and replenished the
earth
But the old farmer still believed tha-
ms soap theory was correct, and to
make 1t work out right he went around
ard Killed the prairie dogs with club.
SO your MARKHAM fam still believes tho
Harris theory was ali right, but tho
middle class is all wrong; theoretically
1t is extinct. And to make the theory
work out right these fanatics are ready
to murder the entire middle class.
which in America embraces e;ebt,

Public Arbitration

When Great Britain refused to
arbitrate the Venezuela boundary
question President Cleveland an
nounced that if the refusal were
persisted in he would name his
own commission to investigate the
question and this country would de-
fend its finding.
When q coal strike was threat
ened and the operators refused to
arbitrate President Roosevelt, act
ing promptly instead Of postponing
decision until the war had begun,
succeeded in securing peace by
announcing that if it were declined
he would appoint commission to
investigate and report.
Is it not possible to compound
action to meet the present crisis
out of those two precedents? The
miners refuse to arbitrate and de-
fend their demands. If they will not
yield, why not name a commission
to pass on the vital question of
whether or not their wages should
be increased; if 50, how much?
AS things are, there is no attempt
being made to ascertain what merit,
if any, is in the case of the miners,
and the issue is clouded by second
airy matters. The issue of whether

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: | have read with great interest
your editorials on the strikes we are
now afflicted with All day as l 20
about my work I think about the
present conditions, and the whole
United States makes me think of
quarrelsome children. I believe if the
American housewives and other work
ing women would do little striking
on their own hook, you might saw
that the gentlemen would not be so
ready to strike.
For instance. have told nv hus-
band that if he ever strikes he shall
90 his own cooking, washing, ironing
and mending. He says he will never
strike.
believe the time has come for the
women to assert themselves, as all
these happenings are menace to the
home, which is the foundation of the
nation. MRS. l.. o. MANLEY.
Housewife.
