Cow-testina Valuable

There is plenty of evidence on file
in the United States Department Of
Agriculture to convince anyone Of the
value of testing associations as
means of developing profitable
dairy herds. In all these associa-
tions records are kept Of the amount
of milk produced and feed consumed
by each COW. and with this informa.
ton the members Of the association
are able to weed out the poor pros
ducers of the herd to make more
room for the heifer calves of the cows
that give the largest production OF
milk and butterfat. This practice, to-
gether with the use of purebred bulls.
is the best and surest way Of building
up the dairy herd, say dairy special
lists of the department.

As Railroad Ties

That the demand for railroad ties
offers field of gigantic size for the
marketing Of Names billion Of feet
of beech, is the point brought out
in a bulletin on maine Hardwoods"
sent out last week by the State
Chamber of Commerce. Says the
bulletin:
Here. is offered field of gigantic
size, at present entirely untried in the
State of Maine. Consider for a mo-
ment it's magnitude. In 1909 the

cent for renewals. This means
about 35S ties are each year removed
from every mile of track. This at
an average price of 81 per tie would
cost, exclusive of all labor in re-
placing them, S107,314, 900. 1t is es-
timated that to produce these ties
for renewals it is necessary to cut
about 10000 acres of timberland
averaging 5000 feet per acre, which
is equivalent to the annual growth
on about 50 million acres Of forest.
Can the management of the rail-
roads, can the owners of the rail-
roads, comprising every depostor
in our mutual savings banks, or
holder of a policy in our mutual life
insurance companies) afford to use
any ties but the best?
Should they not only be justified
but required to make use of the ties
whose life is the longest? Does not
true economic reasons, as well as
safety for the travelling public, de
mand this? From experiments made
by the different railroads and by the
Forest Service of the Department of
Agriculture, it has been learned that
a Beech tie, (whose life, untreated is
from four to five years. treated by
some of the various processes will
last from to 30 years. 1t is inter-
esting to learn that only one kind of
wood, Red Oak has the same length
OF life. OF the untreated ties, the
estimated life is as follows.
