WORLD PRODUCTION OF GOLD
Figures Given by the Director of tho
Mint Show Enormous Amount of
Metal Mined.

Since Columbus landed in America.
according to statistics assembled by
the director of the mint, the world
production of gold through 1919
amounted to more than y billion troy
ounces. The estimated amount Is the
equivalent of 29,44S.92 tons of the
precious metal, occupying 49,1U.S5
cubic feet, and worth more than'17A
billions of dollars.
This tremendous volume of gold
must be measured by bigger unit
than the gold dollar If its magnitude
east in gigantic dollars" one foot
thick and having diameter of approx
imately 18 feet 8 inches, each would
weigh 1855 tons and be worth 100
million dollars. The worlds gold pro-
ductiOn since 1892 would make III
such dollars and leave more than
half enough for another If stacked,
therefore, these gargantuan coins
would form a tower Is feet inches
in diameter, more than 1T feet high.
Since 1905 the average annual world
production would have added about
four and q half of these dollars" to
the stack each year, but in 1918 and
1919, the latest two years for which
would have made less than four of the
100 milliOn-dOllar pieces each year.

Warning Concerning Cancer.

DR.. Albert J. Ochsner urges in the
Annals of Surgery the Importance of
taking every precaution against can
Ger infection, notwithstanding the fact
that it's infectiousness has not been
proved. Wise precaution can do no
harm, while it may do an endless
amount Of good, because in case the
disease is due to infection every addi-
tiOnal case is menace to others He
considers the most convincing argu-
ment Of the righteousness Of cancer
to be found in the studies Of Smith,
who claims that cancer in plants is
due to a micrO-Organism which he has
been able to isolate and cultivate, and
which produces cancer when inocu-
lated upon healthy plants.

DISPOsING OF MILK SURPLUS
Developed Dairy Districts
Daring Summer.


prepared by the United States Depart
meEt of Agriculture3
For the first time since the begin
ming of the World war there is deyel-
oping in this country a surplus of
milk, according to reports recently
received BIZ the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Specialists of
the department state that this condi-
ton probably will be only temporary
during the. flush" of the season, and
that it is most apparent in well-de-
veloped, dairy districts. 1t may con-
tinue dnring the summer months, but
is expected to adjust itself by fall,
when demand will oyertake the sur
plus of supply. The situation is large
~ due 10 the falling off in the demand.
for milk in the manufacture of conr-
densed products, milk powders, casein,,
and similar products, for which there
was large export outlet.
The department points out the. aa
Instability of using as much milk as
possible, in fluid form and otherwise,
genera lion an increased knowledge Of
the value of milk in the diet has re-
suited in an almost doubled per cap
ita consumption of milk. and con-
sumers who purchase milk freely
thereby encourage production. This
is believed to be the best safeguard
against a milk shortage and high
prices resulting from the withdrawal
Of dairymen from the business during
periods of large production and low
farm prices for milk.
But when the limit of human utili-
zation is reached dairy producers nee
essarily must decide how to dispose
Of the remainder. In many cases this
will be decision between selling
whole milk, selling cream, or even to
use a moderate quantity of whole
milk for feeding, especially to young
animals. In any event, more liberal
use of milk on farms should reduce
the surplus, even though not solving
the problem entirely.
AS a guide to persons deciding to
utilize surplus milk as live stock
feed, the department makes the fol
lowing recommendations, which may
be supplemented with literature Is
sued by the department:
Milk from dairy herd which is not
definitely known to be free from tu
berculosis should be scalded. before
being fed. An ordinary feed. cooker
is practical means for scalding milk.
This process is approximately equiv

CAME FROM BROKEN RAINBOW
Pretty Eegend Of the Iris Which
Should BE Familiar to, Every
lover OF the Flower.

Preparations for the joint display by
the American Iris society and the Co
lumbus Iris society, held in Columbus,
led to discussion the other day Of
the origin of this beautiful flower.
Prof. A. &. Hotties of the department
OF horticulture. of Ohio State univer-
slty told this story, according to the
Columbus Dispatch:
1T was the last of the six days OF
creation. A rainbow was above the
earth and on this rainbow sat q group
of angels. Casting their eyes around
and over the vast universe they dis
covered far belqw them this new world
and were charmed by the beauty Of
it's mountains,. Its trees, it's lakes and
it's plains

ner of strange animals, and yet among
them walked something so beautiful
that even the angels marveled at the
handiwork OF God, for they saw, with
ia the Garden of Eden, Adam aIAd his
wife, Eve.
''Marvelng at the sight of such
great beauay and wishing to- share this
with other friends, they called many
ether angels to their lookout upon the
rainbow, and these angels tn turn
called others, until finally the weight
was great and the rainbow cracked
But they did not know that the rain
bow had cracked, and so they eOntin-
Ded tO call other angels Suddenly
the rainbow broke into thousands of
pieces and fell TO earth.
Lovers of flowers know that it was
the iris that received these bits OF
the rainbow and that is why it's colors
are so delicate and so numerous"

alent to pasteuriZation, which most
large cities require as safeguard to
public health. Metal pals that can be
kept clean by washing and scalding
are preferable to wooden containers or
others that are difficult to clean.
In calf feeding it usually pays well
to feed one pound Of whole milk for
each ten pounds that the calf weighs,
for period of two weeks, and at the
end Of that time to change gradually
to an equal amount of skim milk. The
skim milk should be gradually in
creased as the calf grows until about
Is pounds per day is fed at the end
Of three months. Feed the milk warm
and regulate the quantity according
to size and vigor of the calf.
For pigs three weeks old or more,
three parts of skim milk mixed with
one part Of shorts, is useful in keeping
them growing. Skim milk may be fed
with corn and other hog feeds in va
rious practical combinations.
In poultry feeding both skim milk
and buttermilk are excellent feeds,
and can now also be purchased as
nonperishable commercial feed, which
is sold in large barrels as semisolid
buttermilk. Skim milk and butter
milk may be fed alone or mixed with
other feeds, but feeders should OBJ.
serve their fiocks carefully to avoid
giving too much milk, or bowel trou-
BILE may result. This is caused prin-
cipally by fowls eating spoiled clab-
bered milk remaining from a previous
feeding.
While to live stock owners unaccus-
toned to the use of milk as a stock
feed it may appear somewhat expen-
sive, there are advantages which milk
feeders quickly recognize. In addition
to utilizing the surplus milk that
would otherwise be wasted, young
stock generally make very rapid
growth This means early maturity
and early usefulness, compared with
stock that have developed more slow
ly. At least as temporary measure
there is a real opportunity to improve
farm live stock, in addition to reliev-
ing a local milk surplus, by using skim
milk rather literally in proper COM
bina tion with other feeds.
