HANDSOME COUNTRY HOME
BURNED DOWN

The handsome country home of
Ike S. Wilmott, located about one
mile from Hiutchison, : near the
Bourbon-Fayette line, was entirely
destroyed Wednesday afternoon, by
fire of unknown origin, together
with practically all it's contents.
There was no one at home at the
time the fire broke out, Mrs. Will
mott being ill in Lexington hos
pital, and her husband being at
work on distant part of the farm.
The fire was discovered by trainmen
and passengers on a passing L. &
N. train, who alarmed the neighbor-
hood. Neighbors responded, and
succeeded in saving some articles of
furniture from one room.
The house was one of the oldest
in the county, but has recently been
remodeled and equipped with all
modern conveniences, and was in an
excellent state of preservation, The
property loss was estimated at about
$4,000, with insurance Of $4,000.

record is 31,6O0.7 pounds milk contain
ing 1885 pounds butter. This latter
cow is owned by H. F. Fischer of

A study of the records of the Gra-
hamholm cow covering this test show
that her best seven days production
is S4O.7 pounds milk containing 34.57
pounds butter. Her best production
for 80 consecutive days is 3,457.2
pounds milk containing 1889 pounds
butter. Her daily average is 93.9
pounds milk for 365 consecutive days,
which makes her the champion milk

ages and breeds.
It is significant fact that both
milk and butter championships Of the
world in the four-year division are
held by Minnesota Holstein cows.
