The cost of the old COW, plus one
fourth the cost OF that enormous
feed bill. Now Mr.. Grinstcad
wants some one To tell him how
much he will have To dig up to
pay this loss and also the amount
OF money that he expended for
feed. Now | will remark that
we can all very readily see that
Mr.. GrinStcad owned a very
worthless old cow. but we all OBJ
Jet to her kicking the science oi
mathematics out OF existence. So
lets see il we cannot give "A >olu-
ton that VIC will all agree to-.
Facing the problem we see that
there are two unknown quaint
ties entering into the solution of
the question, namely. the amount
lot and the amount OF the feed
bill. Such questions are more
readily solved by algebra where
by we can represent the unknown
quantity by some letter. a. for in
instance i'll this problem we will
let the letter Y represent the loss
and the letter y represent the
amount OF the feed bill. Then
according to the conditions of the
problem, we would have the loss.
which we say is y equals Fl plu,
IA Y which is one OF our algebric
equations. Again from the read
ing of the problem we can readily
see that the amount OF the iccG
bill would be equal to the amount
OF the loss plus the amount OF in
come from that old COW which
was only $50. Therefore To- form
a second true algcbric equation
from the conditions of the prob
lem. we would have the amount
OF the feed bill which We will call

Daily Register:
wish To make a correction on
the problem given out by Mr..
Grinstcad, OF Waco, in regard to
his COW. The problem reads this
way: Bought a cow for $42, sold
the milk Tor SD, then sold the
cow for 500. and found that he
had lost onc-half the cost of the
COW. plus the feed bill
My answer to the problem is
S35.25 instead of S45, as hereto
fore. The difference between
what the COW cost and what she
brought. S7S minus So, leaves
$50. So ID OF COW $2l plus $50
equals So plus II equals $7l.25
which is the feed bill, the differ
cncc in feed and the profit is
S352S to the bad as lost. So
S35.25 Of SD leaves SOS what he
realized for the COW. Trust this
answer Is satisfactory-G. w.
Todd.

Editor Register:
Dear Sir:-In glancing over
Your last issue, / find that the &C
ceptcd and time honored mathe-
NAUTICAL truism. namely. that
when figures are properly hand
led that they will not lie. has been
utterly smashed to ,smithereenS
BY two OF our worthy mathema-
ticianS. | refer to the solution
ot the cow problem submitted by
Mr.. GrinStead. of Waco. One
tMastcrl Charles Combs. of Col
legc Hill. tells Mr.. Grinstead that
he will have $ll.25 as a loss. Our
friend. Mr.. George Todd. OF
Brassheld, tells that $45 is the
amount that he will have TO pay
as loss. Assuming that these
two noted gentlemen have cor
rectly used the figures that enter
INFO the solution of the problem.
and, OF course. they have, we see
that they have demonstrated to
Mr.. Grinstead and to the horror
stricken mathematical world that
figures do lie. for we can all read
ily see that Sll25 and S45 is not
one and the same amount, neither
in dollars and cents.
Mr.. Grinstcad needs relief and
the public mathematical mind
needs relief. so | have decided to
put forth, at least, one herculcan
effort to prevent the downfall of
the science OF mathematics.
Now lets sec. Mr.. Grinstead
said that old COW cost him $42.
and that she reluctantly gave him
a little milk which he sold for Sl2
and that he was shrewd TO the
extent that he was able to palm
her off OH somebody else for 500.
but that the old wench had de-
voured so much feed that he had
sustained a loss in the transac-
ton to the amount of one-halfI

y equals y. which Is the loss plu,
the income which we can easily
ind from the known quantities of
the problem to be $50. Then fpr
4 second true equation we would
have y equals y plus 30. b.
using these two cquaSions y
equals p plus II y and Y equal,
y plus 20. Any ordinary school
boy who has studied a little al
zebra viii tell YOU that y equal,
10 and y equals 10. and a. the
known numbers OF the problem
are concrete numbers represent
ing GLARS and cents. we would
have fer the loss $40 and for the
iced bill SO.
To verify the problem we find
that onc-fourth OF 70 is 10. So
that onc-half OF the Old cow
which i, p plus ~ equals 20. the
loss. And again the loss 40 plus
81 the income. equals - the iced
bill.
Now. Mr. Editor. ! am not co-
ing to tell Mr.. Grinstead who {
am. He will be projecting with
some other old COW and lose
some money by her antics and
will then want some one To- tell
him how much he will have 20 die
up 10 pay his loss and as I. for
one. don't want TO bother with
the trouble. I will simply si.l,
myself. \ SUBSCRIBERS.

MORE LETTERS ABOUT
THOSE PROBLEMS

Editor Daily Register
The two answer 10 \. w.
Grinstead's problem are wrong.
If the COW cost $42 and the milk
sold for $l2 and the cow for 500,
and the loss equalled one-half the
cost of the COW and one-fourth
OF the feed bill. was SO and the
loss was $40. Proof:
Cow cost SO. plus $40 cost of
feed. equals Sis, total cost; Sl2
for milk and 500 for COW, equals
S7S, total amount received; $ll8
minus SIS equals $40. loss, which
is one-half the cost OF cow, plus
one fourth Of feed bill.
Allow me also to answer Mr..
Todd's problem which reads as
follows: Bought horse for so,
hired him out for $40. later sold
him for $50; lost one-third OF cost
OF horse and one-fourth OF feed
what was my loss: Loss was
$40: feed bill was $50.
