pounds of milk; and other costs $40
pounds of milky only 900 pounds Of
milk remained for the profit and skill
of the owner. For the high-produc-
ing group, however, 3,074 pounds Of
milk remained after the following de-
ductions had been made: For feed,
2,3O2 pounds of milk; labor, 800
pounds of milk, and other costs 062
pounds Of milk.
Here, then, were cows in the same
locality, In some cases standing side by
side, and all requiring about the same
labor; yet some were producing three
times as much profit as others, even
though they we're charged with great
er quantities of feed and a large
amount of "other COSTS"
The figures adduced are significant
also in that they show that In milk
checks size is not always true meas
ure of real value; but that the per
cent of profit, as determined by the
cows that are kept, plays an impor-
tant part.
The figures upon which this compar-
ison is based were actual records OF
production; feed, labor, and other
costs were obtained by monthly full
day visits on each of the farms for
period Of two years. Careful rec
ords we're made on these visits Of the
daily milk production of each COW,
feed consumed, labor required, over
head costs, etc. Using these data,
the requirements for producing lOo
pounds of milk were worked out. So
far as possible the requirements were
determined in terms Of pounds OF feed'
hours Of labor, etc., SO that constantly
fiuctuating prices would have no ef-
feet on the value Of the figures. Re-
suits may be interpreted at any time
by using prevailing prices.
The requirements for producing lOO
pounds of milk, based on 847 cows,
with an average annual production OF
$3.50 pounds Of 80 per cent milk, were

HOKUM

IT'S often asked by curious guys
What this word "Hokum" signifies
And as some doubt is entertained.
The problem ought to be explained
Perhaps a ray or two of light
Might help to set the matter right:
For instance-When a man declares
He's killed hundred grizzly bears
That's Hokum.
Again, for instance-Should you
read
That Rockefeller was in need
Had lost his billions and was broke
His oil wells all gone up in smoke
And now was but battered wreck,
Whom Fate had punctured in the
neck
You'd laugh till you was fit to bust
And say, That's funny, but it's just
as Pure Hokum.
Then there's the case of Kaiser Bill,
Whose sins thousand books would
fiji
You've been informed lot of times
That he'd be punished for his crimes.
You've been assured that war would
cease s-
And every one could live in peace;
While, even now, the worlds begun
To frame up for another one
Rank Hokum.
You've met the man whose think
box teens
With many new and rosy schemes
To ease the strain Of H. G. L.,
And all its cussedness dispell;
He hands you out a line of guff
Well tinctured with the brilliant
stuff"
But, as he spills the frothy "bull,"
You get bunch his speech is full
of Hokum.
No doubt you've greeted with ap-
plause
The escapades of Santa Claus;
And Crusoe on his desert isle
Perhaps, at times, your thoughts be-
guile;
You may have heard the thrilling
tale
Concerning Jonah and the whale
Such interesting yarns abound,
But, when investigated, sound
Like HOkum.
In fact, while roaming here and
there,
You'll meet hot-arists everywhere.
And SO, the safest thing to do
Is, Watch your STEP" and neigh
bors, too.
Just brush the cobwebs from your
brain
And give your common sense the
rein;
Avoid wind-artisans and such;
And, lastly-don't imbibe too much
Old Hokum.

IA SOlHIHOn specimen
Louis Agassiz, the naturalist, was

that it seemed impossible to bring to

brought to his classroom a composite

the legs of one species, the antennae
Of another, etc.
