specialists Of the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture found as
result Of study covering two years
In q section Of that state where milk

Of this study is now published In De-
partment Bulletin 92S, "Unit Require
ments for Producing Milk in Vermont"
While the figures obtained show the
requirements Of producing milk in that

innate Of the requirements in similar
sections, the specialists point out that
they do not apply to dairy sections
where other conditions and methods Of
management prevail.
1t was found that 81.1 pounds Of
concentrates were required to produce
100 pounds Of milk In winter. while to
produce the same amount in summer
only 81 pounds were necessary. Other
requirements for producing this
amount Of milk in winter we're: Haul
ing and grinding concentrates, 2 cents
dry roughage, 1893 pounds; silage
and other succulent roughage, 1913
pounds; bedding, 11.2 pounds; man
labor, ~ hours; horse labor, O.6
hour; other costs, 55.5 cents.
In summer the unit requirements
for producing 100 pounds Of milk other
than concentrates were: Hauling and
grinding concentrates, 05 Of a cent;
dry roughage, 1877 pounds; silage and

further showed, according to the war
departments own figures, that the
original plan really contemplated the

wrote the secretary urging that the
sale be confined solely to carpet
woods and that all other varieties be
withheld.-Salt Lake Tribune.

Some Distance From Feeding

/ A satisfactory means Of inducing
exercise on hog farms consists Of
keeping the sleeping quarters for the
sows some distance from their feed

this distance several times daily. How

GROOM COWS AFTER MILKING
Dust and Germs Prevented From Con-
Eliminating Milk SuppIy-Do All
Work Between Times.

The COWS should not be groomed,
bedded, or fed Immediately before
milking. This fills the air with dust
and germs which get into the pail and
contaminate the milk. The grooming
is as good for the cows as good bed
ding, but do it during the day when
ample time will be left before the
next milking to allow the dust to
settle.

AMERICANS PURCHASE
YAPSBURGS ESTATES

Observation-Disclosures have been com.
pleted whereby the estate of Archduke
Frederick of Austria and his son,
Archduke Albrecht-estimated to be
worth more than 100000 OOO-were
taken over by an American syndicate,
which includes c. H. Sabin, J. L, Rep.
logic, Frank "A. Munsey, T, ]. Fielder
and other American business men.
The transaction concerns the vast
land and industrial holdings of the
Hapsburgs, distributed throughout Aus.
tria, C2echo.Slovakia, Jugo-Slavia, Pc.
land, Roumania and Italy. They in.
clude the great steel works and mines
In Teschen, partly in Czecho-SlovaIia,
and partly in Poland. The estate com.
prises other industries, including the
diaries near Vienna, sugar plantations,
factories, apartment houses, palaces
and other private property in Vienna,
castles, about 100000 acres of land
and the Albertina museum in Vienna.
Archduke Frederick was a field
marshal and was commander-in.chief
of the Austro-Hungarian armies in the
war His grandfather was nephew
OF Emperor Francis l. He is the un.
Gle of King Alphonse of Spain. His
sister was queen of Bavaria. Thus, a
considerable part of the property came
from the Saxon house.
This is regarded as important by the
American syndicate, because the prop.
critics were not part Of the possessions
of the Austrian crown, but came to
the Archduke from other sources.

Dust-covered and forgotten, two
big packing cases have been re
posing in the yard of federal

received twelve months ago from
London, and had been dumped
with other stores in an out-of-the

cases was opened and found to
contain female figure in bronze
with helmet on her head. This
was intended to represent Victory
and was designed to comemmo-

fortunate oversight has been rec

BUSINESS MEN

Qualities that an Applicant for a

The firm which sought his ser

The expert rated him high on
latent ability, but deficient in the
essential business qualities of
self-esteem and selfishness.
He did not get the job, says
Leslie's "Sorry," he was told
"but your character shows there
isn't enough iron in your make

a mean man was still an "ornery
cuss" and generosity was yet re-
spectacle. There was time when
"a mans kindness recommended
him for a job and gave him
reasonable hopes of advancement.
Now, growing number of en-
ployers insist that his worth be
weighed in advance with a pair
of apothecary's scales and gagged
with machinist micrometer.
And woe to him if the acute psy-
cho detectives discerns in him a
tendency to meekness or human
sympathy! He suffers the be-
setting business vices of modesty
and mSelfishness!
How deeply, we wonder, have
the doctrines of these latter-day
prophets penetrated the collective
business mind of the country at

who listens dutifully on a Sun

despise his neighbor?
