value In the bodies Of five i,lOO.-
pound steers. An excellent way to
compare the relative values Of farm
animals is TO compare the amount
Of human foods produced by these
animals from each 100 pounds OF
crops with which they are fed.
Making these comparisons Mr..
Hayne stated that 100 pounds OF
crop materials fed 70 n COW brought
IS pounds Of milk for food. When
100 pounds Of food was fed TO a
pig. 1876 pounds Of food were pro-
duced, TO calf, 81 pounds Of food
to poultry, AZ pounds, and when
100 pounds OF crop material were
fed 10 a sheep, 2.G pounds OF food
was the result.

1.-THE COW Is the mother Of pros
pcrity," said Ralph A. Hayne Of the
agricultural extension department
Of the international Harvester COM
pany in a recent address before the
agricultural committee Of the Oma-
ha Chamber Of Commerce. What
Is a home without cow2 The COW
Of all farm animals, produces the
most food and the best food at the
least cost. She converts the cheap
roughage Of the farm into profit
and the people Of the West with
millions OF tons Of roughage on the
farms should well make note Of this
fact. Go 10 any dairy community
Of the United States where proper
methods prevail that you viii, and
you will find that the community Is
prosperous"
Referring to the utility Of the
COW on the farm, Mr.. Hayne pointed
out that the food produced by the
average COW during the course OF
a single year was equal TO the food

other essential food materials that
are found IN milk
"a lot Of folks do not realize the
disadvantage they may be In, In the
buying OF cowa," said Mr.. ilayne,
"Of course cows have 10 be bought,
but considerable care h necessary
In the buying. In not exercising
proper discretion In the buying OF
cows, ono may secure cows that are
ant TO be culls, cows that have
some disease like tuberculosis, cows
which are such poor producers that
they do not produce enough 20 pay
the cost Of keeping, and cows that
cannot improve the herd. We have
learned that there are great differ
ences in cows. We have four meth
DDS Of finding out the real value OF
a COW. These four are the milk
scales, the Babcock test, the feed
record and the milk record.
"ln Illinois there was a certain
cow-testing association organized.
One man was made the laughing
stock Of the ncighborhood because
ne had only one COW on which TO
keen records. One Of his neighbors
had 40 cows A record was kept
OF the production and Of the feed
consumed. Az the end OF the year
the man who had only one COW re-
ported net profit Of S31.2b. The
man who had the 40 cows, after
going over his years records. found
that he had net profit Of s3l.OO
for the 40 cows and his whole fam
ily had labored hard during the
year. The trouble was that he had
Inc wrong kind Of cows.
In closing Mr.. Hayne stated That
he was glad that the committee was

II helium production can be in
creased to the extent that II will
be as readily available as hydrogen

Congress will be asked to enact
legislation preventing the Govern

Belief was freely expressed in
Congressional circles that the toll
of life taken in the Roma fall would
have been lessened II the craft had
been filled with helium instead of
hydrogen, which burst into flame
and caused most of the deaths.
Lanham points out that the Gov.

production Of helium at the Govern.
