them do get to sleep inthe jail once in while
but the Jail is badly crowded and the new jail
is hardly fit for occupancy even for overflow
meetings. Possibly a jail sentence in Kenosha
county has some restrictive influences, but it
is not a serious menace to the normal life OF
the men under sentence.
Kenosha has pretentious road program for
the coming year and it will be able to use con-
siderable amount of common labor. 1t needs
rock pile like the county board up at Oshkosh
is providing. It could save money in road con-
tracts by having such a rock pile. Many roads
in the county, not part of the state system,
are lacking in repair and there is no sensible
reason why men serving time in jail" should
not be out working on these roads and making
them of greater value to the county.
Kenosha county may not want to expend
the money necessary to open work-house
with modern machinery for work, but it will
not cost much to open q rock pile and organize
road building gang. This kind of work will
insure to the prisoners an abundance of fresh
air and work in the open For lot of them
it will give them a chance to get back to nor
malcy. Supervision of such road work need
not be great drain on the county funds. One
man would be able to superintend the work
of lot of prisoners. 1t might not even be
necessary to buy balls and chains to keep these
fellows from running way.
Jail sentences will continue to be consider
able of farce until the county works out some
definite plan for work for men sent to jail.
These men should work for their own good.
They should work for the county in order to
pay the penalty which the court presumes to
impose.
The humane way to treat men sentenced to
Jail is to give them regular work to do and that
work should be something of real value. These
men have offended against the laws of Ke-
nosha county and the state of Wisconsin and
in order to pay any penalty they should con-
tribute something to the advancement of the
state and county Building roads is the best
possible way for them to make this contribu-
ton. sg5#

Daily Health Hint

Over $5oo,000,oo0 extra profit can be
made each year by dairy farmers
through the employment of better
feeding methods. This would mean a
saving of about Sill for each of the
four and half million dairy farmers
of the United States, according to the
Blue Valley Creamery Institute. The
truth of this experiment is borne out
during the past year by the University
by a feeding experiment carried on
of Minnesota.
Over year ago the Dairy division
of the University purchased four
average cows for which records were
available of feed received, and of milk
and fat produced, covering two years
for each COW. The cows received good
care on the farm of the original owner
but were not on a scientific feeding
ration. The university Immediately
placed the cows on a feeding ration
suitable for their needs. Within a
year production per COW had increased
36.7 per cent.
On the farm of the original owner
The cows produced on the average of
1922 pounds of milk containing 1872
pounds of fat, the products per COW
amounting to around $87.36. The feed
cost totaled $49.46 leaving profit of
1890. At the university farm the
average production was 6,375 pounds
of milk, containing 259 pounds of but
ter-fat and valued at $12432. The
average feeding cost per cow was
$6142, an increase of "a per cent,
leaving profit per cow of 5000. The
returns over feed cost per COW gained
so per cent over those of the two pre-
vious years.
On the owners farm the cows were
on pasture six months of the year and
were fed timothy hay for roughage,
plus five pounds per day of grain
mixture made up of 80 parts bran, 80
parts middling, 10 parts molasses feed,
and parts oilmeal. At the university
farm the cows were on pasture 5
months of the year. They weye fed
corn silage and alfalfa hay as rough
age plus a grain ration, according to
production made up of oats, parts;

The report called attention to the
increasing shortage of officer person
mel, declaring it already had become
necessary to utilize young officers with

tions. It was urged that the allowance
of midshipmen at Annapolis be in

tuition, but the Secretary said it would
be far better to raise the require
ments for graduation and so weed out
weaker men than to lower the stan

We have no sympathy with the suggestion
of the Brown county board that a "split' pri-
mary ballot be provided for nomination Of can
didates in Wisconsin. So long as parties are
to be maintained the primary election should
provide for distinction between them. If
changes in the primary law are to be made
they should be made along lines of making it
more difficult for one party to control the
nominations of the others. No clique of poll
ticians should have a chance to help nominate
men at the primary and then go out and try
to beat them at the election.

America imported 80 per cent of it's
