ACROSS THE CONTINENT
by c. Weston Steward
We visited the University Of
New Mexico and drove around
thru the campus. The buildings
are all of the same style of archi-
lecture as the houses in Sante
Fe.
A barber in Albuquerque ask
ed US where we came from and
when we told him Vermont he
asked US where that was and we
finally made it clear to him by
telling him it was near the Allan
tic ocean and Canada We found
a number Of people who had never
heard Of Vermont or any of
the New England states.
The next day, Tuesday, we
went thru a place called Blue
Canyon and there were some in
tcresting grades and turns there
as well as beautiful seen
cry. The Magdalena noun
tains just beyond we're al
most as beautiful in respect to
colorings as we found later in
the Grand Caynon. AS we were
nasSing thru a large forest, call
Of the Datail National Forest, we
saw our first coyote. That day
we crossed the Continental Divide
again at an altitude of 1909 feet.
At Queenado, n. NJ, where we
camped that night we paid 45c
a gallon for gas, the most we paid
anywhere on the trip. 1t was
along in this part of the country
that we began to see dead cattle
near the road; some having APP
parcntly died not long before we
came by and others where moth
ing was left but the whitcned
skeleton. Once in a while we
would pass a dead horse or mule.
The cause Of sths was lack Of
Water.
On Wednesday, August End, we
were caught in another heavy
shower and it sure did rain for a
while. 1t happened that we we're
or a new gravel stretch of road
so we could keep going at about
Il miles an hour, and again we
were lucky when we left the gray
el stretch; ii had not rained on
the dirt road so we could still
keep going.
A little way beyond where it
1aincj we came to the petrified
forest where we found perfect fall

formations there are peculiar and
interesting, too.

ACROSS THE CONTINENT
(By c. Weston Steward
The next day we went through
some oil fields by getting started
on the wrong road just a lew miles
north of Eldorado, Kan. We saw
hundreds of oil wells and nearly
everyone pumping. Along to-
wards night we passed a typical
prairie wagon in the vicinity OF
Hutchison and soon afterwards met
a Mexican loading a pack mule
He looked pretty tired The tenn
perature at Hutchison when we
went through was 102 in the shade
The roads were good compared
with Missouri. We made POO miles
that day, averaging about % mile,
an hour. In the vicinity of kins-
ley we began to see something OF
the pIairies and sand hills and less
of the trees. We bought some
fresh eggs at Kinslev for PC a
dozen. This was the general price
all through the west.
Just outside Of Dodge City, Kan,
we met our fir real cowboy on

with him a pitching pony, other

SIX COWS PRODUCE
SUFFICIENT MILK To
FEED 10 CHILDREN
Give as Much as 81 Scrubs;
Breeding Experiments
Made by U. S.

Washington. = Correspondence of
The Associated Press.)-Breeding a
dairy cow that will give enough milk to
feed 30 children a day, more than six
times the capacity of the ordinary
COW, is one of the feats of the in
dustry which has been accomplished
by the United States department of ag-
riculture, and which can be done by
proper feeding and selective breeding.
On its experimental farm neal Belts
vile, Md, the department has a herd
of six cows, the result of breeding
work. that have produced an average
Of more than $4,000 pounds of milk in
800 days. This little herd yields enough
milk to provide a quart a day to 10
children.
An ordinary COW, or scrub, produces
only enough milk to feed 5 children a
quart a day, while a good COW yields
enough to give 20 children a quart a
day. The supercow, as the depart
ment calls her, and there are more
and more of them in this class every
year. gives enough milk so that q
small herd might easily supply this
quantity to all the small children in q
small town.
Improvement Strengthens Milk
The improvement of dairy cows
means more than increased profits to
the dairyman, the department declares,
it means cheaper and more milk, the
best bone and muscle maker for chill
dren. Good breeding and good feeding
have made the difference. What this

the subject.
In the same connection. the depart
ment shows that culling the poultry
flock to get rid of all birds exceDt the
vigorous, prolific layers, results in nc
ticeable improvement in the progeny
as well as in an increase of eggs.
Recent experiments with the poultry
at the Beitsville farm showed hat the
later moulters selected from a flock oil
100 Rhode Island Reds in the fall OF
1920 laid seven more eggs per birc
during their second year than the orig.
inal flock of pullets. They were used
as breeders the following spring anG
the first red pullets to commence lay
ing in the fall of 1921 were found to
be the offspring of these late moult.
ing hens. Their pullets in a period Of
seven months have already averaged
about two dozen eggs per bird more
than the original flock.
Get Better Hen Eggs
1t is not alone in number of eggs
that the late moulters' progeny excel
the department report continues, but
also in the value of the product, as the
distribution was more even, q much
larger proportion of the eggs being lait
during the winter months. In the last
seven months the daughters of the late
moultres MOI only averaged two dozer
eggs per bird more than the origina
flock, but the value of their produce
was, figuring at the same prices, aboui
$1.04 per bird more during the sam,
period. 1t is expected that this margin
will increase.

Italian Investigator Come S
Back With Answer to
Cost Complainers.

Neutrality-suspicious. of The As
ISOLATED Press. THE world is com
planning of what it costs to buy a good
dinner, as compared to the days before

come forward with the statement that
never before have the people been as
well fed as at present.
Signor Pedrazzoli has analysed the
descriptions, in old writings, of the
hundred-course banquets Of the middle
ages, and the r~ecitals Of whole cows
prepared for the feasters. He finds
undoubted exaggeration, and says that
when such things did happen so many
people sat down to the meal that each
individual portion was very small.
Such dinners also were given only in
years of plenty, but more numerous
than these were the lean years. Then
the people were thin and pale, and at
this time originated the expression

The seventeenth century was the
golden age for food. During these
Years potatoes, tea, chocolate and cof-
fee were introduced into Europe.
Rome claims to be the birthplace of
Cafe au lait." Ambulant Greeks
used to sell coffee from buckets In
the streets of Rome. The Romans
Immediately used this for mixing with
milk, and so popular proved the drink
that it soon spread to the whole world.
The first coffee house to be opened
in Rome was, in fact, called: III
Cafe Greco" and it may still be seen,
in the picturesque Via Condotti.
An idea of how bad vas the food In
middle ages may be had from the
writings of Tassoni, in whose verse

eat it, and it was medically unwhole-
