UNABLE TO IDENTIFY MUMMY
London Cffic ais in Something of a
Quandary as to Disposition of
"Old Jimmy"

One of LondOns problems at the
present hour is what to do with q
mummy that lies at the back of the
Mansion house in one of the Oldest
churches of that ancient city. No one
knows where 1t came from, and the
ocular element around the Mansion
house describe it as "Old Jimmy-a
former lord mayor of London" The
rector Is in a quandary over it's dis
posal. The figure is perfectly pre-
served; eyes, hair. nose, teeth, nails
and ribs.
Inside the door of the mummy's box
is a glass lid, which was removed Il
few days ago for the first time for
many years. The mummy was covered
with cobwebs, but was still in good
condition. ''It feels like leather" said
an onloOker as he touched "Ofd jim
my's" elastic ribs. The rector invites
suggestions from the public as to what
to do with the mummy. The mystery
as to its identity arises from the fact
that during the great London fire in
1906 it was hurriedly removed from
another church and placed where it
now lies, so as to escape the ravages
of the confla grafton.

SOIL FERTILITY Is LACKING
Many Improbable Pastures Need Re-
seeding or Liberal Application
of Plant Food.

Many pastures gradually prove I'M
profitable not from overgrazing or sea-
sonable conditions but from lack OF
soil fertility. This is especially true
where cattle. sheep, ETC., Craze in an
open field and then run into some
shady spot to rest, so conditions should
be carefully studied. In some cases it
will be found that the pasture needs
reseeding. though in many cases it
will be learned that it is overgrazing
or lack of available fertility in the soil
that causes the decline, in which case
removing the stock for time if from
overgraZing or the application OF the
necessary plant food if the latter will
prove profitable.

Rut today 1t costs from SIS to $50 q
month to feed a cow on grain and

ture, therefore. pays bigger dividends
than formerly. Dairymen used to fig
ure that they must get $15 yedr

A Revolutionary Cow.

Helen may properly be referred to
as a revolutionary COW. Some other
cows, in cOw-tcsting associations and
elsewhere, have shown similar tend
encies. And the result is that the
dairy specialists are urging dairymen
to see if it is not possible to produce
milk and butter without feeding so
much grain as is commonly fed.
The basis of successful dairy feed
ing is now said to be to feed the cows
on the stuff that the farm produces
instead of buying great deal of grain
and other concentrates. The dairy
man should plan his feeding and crop
growing to take care of the herd he
has, instead of buying as the need
arises for more feed. He should de-
vote special attention to having the
right kind of pasture and the right
kind Of roughage If he cannot grow

prepared by the United States Depart

Profitable dairying does not consist
In producing the greatest possible
quantity of milk.
1t does consist. however. in produc-
ing the greatest possible quantity OF
milk at the lowest possible cost.
To produce more milk, many dairy
men feed too much grain, and pile up
StupendOus feed bills. But the grain
does not always increase the flow OF
milk above what it would have been
without grain, enough TO pay the diff
ference in the feed bill. Dairy special
lists of the United States department
of agriculture believe that in many
cases more grain is fed 10 dairy COWS
that can be justified by the results in
milk and butterfat.
If your neighbor told you that his
COW, that had not eaten Il pound of
grain Tor whole year, produced 1000
pounds more milk aud 30 pounds more
butterfat than she ever did when fed
the regular grain and roughage ration
well. what would you believe if your
neighbor told you that? And yet,
that has actually happened. AT least.
that is substantially the story that the
United States department of agricul-
ture tells about its IIolstein COW.
Helen Uilkje Calamity l4JS57.
Up to the time Helen vas eight
years old, she had always been fed
a grain, Stage, and roughage ration,
and the best she had ever done was
11,77S.2 pounds of milk and 3GS.39
pounds of butterfat. When she was
eight years old, that being in the
spring of 1918, it WAS decided TO feed
her no grain for Il year. She lived
for a full IL months on pasture, 81
lage, and rou&hage. And that year
she produced 14.210.1 pounds Of milk
and 47O.24 pounds of butterfat. The
experiment was carried out at Hunt
