During the experimental period
the control cows averaged 27.7 lbs.
OF fat-corrected milk, while the
group receiving the thyroprotein
averaged 35.1 lbs. of fat-corrected
milk. The control group consumed
daily an average of 11.2 lbs. of
concentrates, 1915 lbs. of hay and
38.9 lbs. of silage, while those re-
ceiving thyroprotein consumed 1873
lbs. of concentrates, 10.4 lbs. of hay
and 800 lbs. of silage. This was an
average of 81 more lbs. of total
digestible nutrients consumed daily
by the cows fed thyroprotein. The
cows fed thyroprotein lost an aver
age II pounds of body weight while
the control cows gained an average
81 pounds.
S32 More Per Cow
At prices of $632 per hundred for
milk and $4.35 per hundred for con-
centrates, $45 per ton for hay, $12
per ton for silage and Sc per hum
dred for thyroprotein supplement,
the cows fed thyroprotein averaged
$24.25 more above feed costs than
did the control cows. The extra milk
produced also allowed for establish
ing 1927 lbs. more base milk sale per
day. The summer market value of
this base milk was estimated at $7.32
per cow. Therefore, the total value
above feed costs of thyroprotein
feeding over controls was $32.07 per
cow. These workers felt that under
conditions existing during this short
time experiment, the feeding of
thyroprotein was profitable.
The Bureau of Dairy Industry has
conducted feeding trials in coopera-
ton with the agricultural expert
ment stations in Tennessee and in
Montana (both at Huntley and at
Bozeman) in which thyroprotein
was fed for period of so days. In
the Montana experiment, group No.
l "a control group was fed grain
at the rate of one Id. for 4 lbs. of
milk. Group No. was fed Is grams
of thyroprotein per day in addition
to the grain. Group No. eanother
control group was fed an extra 8
lbs. of grain each day. Group No.
4 was fed the extra lbs. of grain
and Is grams of thyroprotein. Forage
was fed free choice.
Marked Increase in Production
Results show a very marked in
crease in production during the
period of thyroprotein feeding. Cali
culations which included the 30-day
pre-experimental period, the 60-day
experimental period, and the 30-day
post experimental period, and which
took into consideration body weight
losses, milk production and feed con-
sumption, indicated that feed eff
ficiency was not decreased by feed
ing thyroprotein.
On the basis of present prices OF
feeds and milk, there would be some
increased monetary return as a re-
suit of feeding thyroprotein. While
thyroprotein was being fed, milk
yields of groups receiving thyro-
protein was greater than that Of
control groups. After thyroproteir
was removed, milk yields of the
thyroprotein-fed groups was les!
than the control groups. When 3O5

Feed Thyroprotein?
1t Boosts Mix Production and Fat
But May Haze Undesirable Effects
By ERWIN P. SMITH

dairy cows on our Montana dairy
farms, there are three factors that
should be considered:
l. Is the milk produced safe for
human consumption?
2. Is the use of thyroprotein in
our dairy feeds economically sound?
8. Will the use of thyroprotein
possibly result in undesirable effects
upon the dairy cattle to which it
is fed?
Effect on Humans
In consideration of the first factor,
all of the effects of thyroprotein on
the composition of milk have not
been definitely determined. 1t is
known that the percentage of fat
is raised. Workers are not in agree
ment as to its effect on the per-
centage of solids-not-fat, casein,
globulin, lactalbumin, lactose and
vitamin and engine content of the
milk. The possibility that thyro-
protein might be secreted into the
milk in sufficient quantities to pro-
duce harmful effects when the milk
is used by humans was studied at
Missouri. There, research. workers
found that when guinea pigs were
fed such milk, no detachable thyroid
effects could be observed, but data
on human subjects are needed be-
fore this can be definitely estab-
lished.

 I read notice in the paper that the police are going to shoot the dogs again.
 I wish they wouldn't shoot the dogs just because they run around. Sometimes a pet is loose, like Banana, he's very nice dog and wouldn't hurt anyone but he isn't tied up and I am so worried he may get shot.
 If my dog Buddy got shot, l would just die. Please ask the police to call the owners before they shoot the dogs. Thank you.

take upon themselves all the grave consequences of such acts of aggression.
 Washington officials tended to shrug off Chou's remarks as part of the Communist war of nerves against the Nationalists.
 The State Department declined comment, but pointed out that Secretary of State Dulles, at his news conference two weeks ago, said US. forces are committed to help the Nationalists if the Reds try to invade.
 The island, about 100 miles off the China coast, has been under US. Naval protection since the outbreak of the Korean War in 1850. And Chou brought that fact up time and again.
 It was the first time Chou had publically mentioned Formosa in nearly four years, although his subordinates have called fre- quenty for liberation of the island.

Red China Will Liberate' Formosa,

TOKYO, R-Red China's gov ernment council has unanimously endorsed Premier Chou En-Lai's s call for the liberation of Formosa and his warning that any who interfere face "all the grave con- sequences :. .", Peiping Radio de- clared Friday.
 The broadcast quoted Chou as saying the conquest of Formosa "is China's own internal affair; we will brook no foreign interfer- ence."
 Peiping made it clear the warn ing was aimed at the United States.
 It was Chou's first major pro- nouncement since returning from the Geneva talks-and he pulled no punches.
 Throughout his long and fiery speech there was one predomi- nant enemy-"United States ag- gressive circles" The four words were as one. Even Chiang Kali Shek took second rating.
 "The government of the Peo- ple's Republic of China," Chou said, "once again declares that Taiwan Formosa) Nis inviolable Chinese territory, that it's occupa- ton by the United States abso- lutely cannot be tolerated :. The liberation of Taiwan is an exer- else of China's sovereignty and it is Chinas own internal affair; we will brook no foreign interference.
 Any treaties concluded be- tween the United States govern ment and the traitorous Chiang Kai-Shek group entrenched on Taiwan would be illegal and with out any validity whatever.

wah, N. j., for the biggest single
traffic death toll reported thus
far.
The National Safety Council
has estimated that 40 persons
will be killed in traffic accidents
during the three-day holiday.
The council also estimated that
40 million cars will be on the
roads.
There were 434 violent deaths
in the. two-day July 4 holiday
last year. Included were 262 in
traffic accidents, 121 drownings,

As United Fruit Suit Targets
Steps for Competition in Bonono Industry
In Latin America Asked by Government

viewed the suit as also serving
another purpose-that Of scotch
ing Communist propaganda
claims that the United States is
interested only in shielding
American business in Latin
America.
The company-whic h has

time in denying the Federal
monopoly charges.
Company Denies Charges.
Sam Baggett, the company's
vice president and general coun-
sci. issued a statement in New
York in which he said United

the charges are groundless."
The Government suit accuses
United Fruit of forcing out COM

of nearly all Central. American
land used for growing bananas.
It also contends United Fruit
thus has managed to achieve
dominance in the production,
transportation and importation
of bananas.
The Justice Department moved

United Fruit has operated on a
large scale. The company's larg-

For the past two years the
company rad been locked in a
dispute with the Red tinged
Guatemalan government of Pres
ident Jacobo Arbenz, which be-
gan expropriating United Fruit
lands under an agrarian reform
law. The Arbenz regime now has
been ouSted by a military junta.
Both the company and the
United States State Department
baked at the Guatemalan gov

Satlon, and efforts to settle the
matter dragged on without get

For Propaganda Use.
It seemed to some American
officials that the Arbenz govern

pute alive so it could be used as
a propaganda weapon against
the United States.
The Justice Department suit
evoked this comment by A. l..
Bump, the Guatemalan manager
of the United Fruit Co.: These
suits have been going on for
long time and have not proved
we are a monopoly" Mr.. Bump,
who spoke out from Guatemala,
said United Fruit has done much
for the countries in which it
operates.
A wage dispute with some 90
900 Honduran workers erupted
into a strike against United
Fruit about six weeks ago. The
situation there has been tense.
