A Possible Election Hitch Other Items

d DISABILITIES growing out Of
1 the Tennessee suffrage tangIe are
being officially considered, nOtwith-
standing the fact that Connecticut has
since made a ratification of sorts. The
possibilities arise out of constitutional
provisions that a candidate must have
a majority in the electoral college to
secure his election. If courts should
declare, after the election has oc-
Cured, that the Tennessee ratification
Of suffrage was illegal all wOmen's
votes cast under authority of the nine
zenith amendment also would be lille
cal, and there would be nothing to do
but throw out the whole vote of states
where such Illegal voting had occurred.
Thus, no candidate would have a ma
lority of the electors and the house Of
representatives would elect the presi-

First Wireless Heard Round the World

HE first message from the United

as the Lafayette radio station, at Bor-
deaux, France, which is undergoing
official acceptance tests, has been re-
ceived here. The message follows:
'"rh1s IS the first wireless message to
be heard around the world and marks
a milestone on the road of scientific
achievement"
Secret,.ry Daniels sent the follow
ing message in reply: "My sincere
congratulations upon the successful
completion of the gigantic radio sta
ton named for that distinguished
F'renchmen whom all Americans honor
Designed to serve a military purpose,
It will now serve to bind closer the

VIZ ASHINGTON.-Recently the Unit

ment of 100000, has acquired the
exclusive right to dig a canal across

port that Great Britain and Japan con-
templated the project as a joint en-
terprlse on their own account, anyway,
so says report.
1t was for long time thought that
we would decide upon a Nicaragua
route in preference to that Of Panama,
but the final choice fell to the isthmus
mainly because Of fear of the Mica
raugan volcanoes, which are very tenn
peramental and sometimes fiercely ex-
plOsive.
Nevertheless the proposed Zine Of
the Nicaraguan canal passed so miles
south of the nearest active volcano
and the route had certain conspicuous
advantages. For one thing, the high
est elevation to be crossed is only 1855

tween this country and our forces in
France, since at that time there was
grave fear that German submarines
might be able to cut the trans-oceanic
cables and leave Pershing isolated so
far as immediate communication with
the United States was concerned.
The station now completed is the
largest in the world. It has eight
S20foOt towers, and it's engineering
features, while in general modelled on
those of our naval stations at Airing
ton and Annapolis, are unique both in
their magnitude and in some features
Of their design.
The success of this station in
transmission is exemplified by the
fact that the audibility of its signals,
as measured at the naval radio labora-
tory in the bureau Of standards, is five
times the audibility of the similar sig
nails from the German radio station at
Nauen.

ORIGIN OF AYRSHIRE BREED
Scotch Cattle Are Quick, Brisk and
Seem to Have Abundant Store
of Efficiency

The Ayrshire breed originated In
fine county of Ayr, in southwestern
Scotland. In that region, which bOr-
ders on the Irish sea, the surface Is
rolling and has much rough woodland.
Pastures, therefore, are somewhat
sparse and 1t is necessary for animals
to Craze large areas in order to OBJ
tain sufficient feed.
1t is only within the last hundred
years that Ayrshires have had a type
well enough established to be entitled
to the designation of breed. No exact
account Of the different infusiOns of
blood Of other breeds into the native
Scotch cattle to form the Ayrshire
breed is at hand. 1t is probable, how
ever. that the Channel islands, Dutch
and English cattle were all repre-
scented.
The first importation of Ayrshires
to this country was made In 1922,
since which time there have been fire.
quent importatiOns into both the
United States and Canada. New Eng
land. New York and Pennsylvania
probably contain the largest number
of representatives Of the breed. There
Is a small distribution in the other At
lantic states and the Pacific North
west. In Canada Ayrshires have had
great popularity and the breed seems
well able to withstand the rigors of
the Canadian climate. The merits Of
the breed have not been advertised
widely; consequently 1t is not we'll
known in many sections of the United
States.
The colors of Ayrshires may vary
from a medium red to a very dark
mahogany brown and white, with
either color predOminating. OF late
years among breeders there has been
a decided tendency toward white with
red markings. A black muzzle and a
white switch are desired. but are not
necessary for registration. Perhaps
the most picturesque feature of ami
mails of the breed is their long horns,
which turn outward, then forward
and upward. Another point of which

Milk With Delicious Sawdust Flavor

NAL food was described by E. G. Sher-
rard and G. w. Blanco.
White sawdust, finely ground, is
treated with diluted sulphuric acid in
large boiler known as a digester, un-
der steam pressure. This breaks up
the fiber and extracts the sugar. To
prevent injurious effects, the acid is
neutralized by adding lime to produce
chemical reaction.
The liquid thus obtained, when
boiled down, is rich in sugar. and when
mixed with the fiber produces a moist
feed containing about Is per cent of
water, in which form it is fed to dairy
cows.
At the forest products laboratory,
United States department of agricul-
ture, Madison, Wis, experiments
proved that three cows thrived on this
sawdust ration and not only gave more
milk, but increased in weight. So says
Uncle Sam.
The result was so satisfactory that
the government has decided to take
the matter up on a larger scale at the
experiment stations throughout the
country and furnish a detailed report
on the value of hydrolyzed sawdust as
cattle food. So says Uncle Sam.
So there you are. Probably milk,
cream and butter with delicious saw
dust flavor will soon be added to the

I SN'T there hoary old yarn about
! a man who equipped his donkey
with green spectacles and tried to edu-
cate it to eat shavings? Well, any
way, he wasn't a circumstance to
Uncle Sam. He's going to fatten up
our cows and make 'em give more
milk on a diet of sawdust.
In short, when the dairy farmer of
the future needs feed for his cows he
may get fresh supply by going out in
his wood lot and reducing few
stumps to sawdust.
By chemical treatment sawdust may
be converted into a nourishing cattle
food.
This fact was made public at a sec
tional meeting of Industrial and en-
cheering chemists, American Chemi-
cal society, at the University of Chi
cagO.

breeders of the Ayrshire are very
proud is the uniform. square, level
udder with long body attachment
which is cOmmon among the cows.
Quick, brisk actions are character
istic of the animals. which seem al
ways to- have an abundant store of
energy and to be exceptionally alert.
Ayrshires have a nighly nervous dis
position, which is useful for both pro-
duction an" self-suppOrt. Probably
none Of the other dairy breeds can
compare with the Ayrshires in ability
to obtain a livelihood on scant pas
lures. Their ability as ''rustlers" has
made them very useful in sections
where there is much rough land in
pasture.
In weight the cows may vary from
9OO to 1900 pounds average about
1000 pOunds); bulls weigh between
1.4OO and 1000 pounds average about
1000 pOunds).' The animals are no.
ticeably compact in body. with a ten
dency to smoOthness over all parts.
Formerly they were criticized for
their short teats, hut that fault has
heen removed largely by careful
breeding. AS a breed Ayrshires are
generally very hardy and show great
constitutional vigOr.
At birth the calves weigh from So
to so pounds, are very vigorous easy
tn raise. and make rapid gains.
Heifers reach maturity of frame at
an age between the Holstein and the
Jersey.
MIX from Ayrshire cows contains
comparatively little color and has the
fat in uniformly small glOhuIes which
average smaller in size than 10 any
OIL pr breed. FOr these reasons the
milk sometimes fails to show dis.
tinct cream line. by which the con-
sumner often judges the quality Of the
milk. Ayrshire milk. because of the
small fat glOhuIes. stands shipping
well without !churning. and in other
respects it is well adapted TO the mar
ket-milk trade. The percentage of the
butterfat In the milk is medium. and
consequently there is no difficulty in
conforming to local or state butterfat
standards.

feet.
This is interesting because the Mica.
raugua canal may yet be dug to sup.
plement for commercial purposes the
facilities of the Panama ditch. The
route would be 1874 miles shorter from
New York to San Francisco than by
way Of the isthmus; and the cana
would not cost more than One-third
as much as that of Misunderstanding
however, the risen price of labor and
materials.
Looking at the map, one sees that
Nicaragua is wide compared with
the Isthmus of, Panama. But also
one observes that much of it's mar
rOwest part is occupied by an immense
lake, 100 miles long and 45 miles
broad, out Of which large river
called the San Juan, runs eastward all
the way of the Caribbean sea. A strip
only u miles wide separates the lake
from the Pacific ocean; three-fourths
of the rivers length is navigable, and
thus, as it might be said, most of the
digging has already been done by ma.
turc.
There would be, as a matter Of fact,
about 4S miles of ditch TO be dug; but
nearly all of this is through lowlands,
and the job would be cOrrespondingly
easy.
The distance across the Tehuante-
pee neck is 125 miles as the crow
flies.
