N'oah Goldberg, a Pole, whose uncle Is a New York rabbi, died in a Vienna hovpital three years ago. Among his effects was found the sum of $G00, which was used to pay hospital and burial expenses. Ills American relatives, knowing he possessed a personal fortune made inquiries In Poland, but found not a trr.ce of It there. They appealed to the Polish consul In Vienna for an ejnirinntion of Goldberg's personal belongings. and it disclosed another $100. Iteeently, however, the consular offici. il. one Wteder, who had noticed an ar:iflclal leg anions the property left by the dead man, decided to try It on with a view to purchase, sinct he himself wears a wooden limb. He accidentally touched a sprin?, which -disclosed the *88.000 in $1,000 bills. The money now awaits the the American relatives. WINTER FEEDING FOR DAIRY COWS Hardest Working Animal on Farm Needs Best Ration. The milking cow Is the hardest working animal on the'farm, a fact which explains the Importance of good feeding for dairy cows. A cow giving 35 pounds of milk a day produces In that milk what is known as 10.4 therms of energy. To produce th* same numlter of therms in the form oi useful work, a team ?( two l.!MJM-pound horses would bare to work steadily for eight hours. As the ouly way a cow can obtain energy to put into her mil* is through the feed she eats, her reed must be highly nutrlt'ous and fed in sufficient quantities M that Her body require meets as well ss her full needs for max tmum sr.ilk production are met* The successful dairy farmer bases Ills win ter feeding program oh an abundance of legume roughage such as alfalfa oi other legume hay, and corn silage. &• that he may be sure to have these roughages available next winter be Is already inuking his plans for a sub stantial "creage in alfalfa or one ot the other legumes (or hay this spring An acre for each cow in milk will grow enough alfulfa bay to keep these cows well supplied with the very bes« dry roughage from ati fail to early spring. The growing of about one acre and a half of the other legumes will be required to keep a milking cow well supplied with hay during the same period. Now is the time to plan for next winter. In winter feeding, hay is usually fe«i at the rate of 1 to I Vi pounds for each 100 pounds the cow weighs. Silage is generally fed at the rate ot 2^» to 3^4 |>ounds for each I0U pounds of the animal's weight, Grain should always be fed according to the cow's milk production. The larger breeds, such as the Ayreshire, Brown >5wis<. and Hoistein, are fed one pound oi grain to each 3% to 4 pounds of milk produced daily. The smaller breeds, as the Guernseys and Jerseys are usually fed grain at the rate of l pound to each 3 pounds of milk produced daily*. -- • 1 Many Dairymen Overlook Water Supply in Winter The average dairyman overlooks the water supply for his cows during the winter months, and in dotag so he overlooks a nice profit und lowers the production of his cows. The dairy cow will drink 100 pounds of water daily if it is located where she can get it at least twice daily and it Is not too cold. A fresh cow will drink three or four times as much as a stripper or dry cow. In cold winter weathei a cow will not drink that much water if turned out but once a day and she has to walk to a pond or tank to drink. Furthermore, when a lurge amount of cold water is drunk in cold weather It must be raised to the body temperature of th^cow. and to do this the cow burns the feed nutrients which were intended to produce and maintain her btfdy. * Nearing 70, Kansas City Man Skates Nightly Kansas City.--G.

It would be appropriate to say that the slender figure in silos Is coming into style. Th< tendency seems to be toward le>s diameter and more height, and If a 1 irse amount of silage is needed t< two small ones rather than oti« DUO ot great diameter. " Right, ten and twelve-foot silos are each year becoming more coinmog. These small structures make a silo n practical investment for herds of ten or more dairy cows, or for two or three loads of heef steers. Ten cows for example, will eat about two inches of silage per day from an eight-foot silo and about one and one-third Inches from a silo ten feet in diameter. Cow Stanchions Should Be Properly Adjusted ' The stanchions should be so adjusted that the cows deposit their droppings in the gutter and. not on the platform. Clean, dustless bedding should be provided dtjily. The flanks of the cows should be clipped to keep the hair short so that the cows may be easily cleaned with a stiff brush Brushing should be done as often as possible. Diseased cows should be isolated from the healthy ones. A constant inspection should be maintained to locate new diseases. Every dairyman should make it a point to become acquainted with common cow ailments. Milk from diseased cattle should never be sold. Dipping for Lice Lice cause great annoyance to calves and (may seriously retard growth if present in large numbers. They are difficult to control, but about the most satisfactory treatment is dipping or wnshlng with a coal tar dir solution This method cannot be used during cold went he" but should be used thp first wurm, still spring day.

Los Angeles, Calif.--Thirteen years ago down in Temple, Texas, Arthur B. Crouch, the. leading grain dealer and one of the outstanding citizens of the community, suddenly disappeared. There were supposed to be some missing bank funds--$160,000 of them that the authorities said ^rthur Crouch had obtained irregularly. Eventually they got out an embezzlement warrant and charged the missing grain merchant with forgery and told Sheriff John Bigham to arrest him. For 13 years the soft-spoken sheriff with the steely eyes looked for Arthur Crouch. And just when every one had about forgotten about the missing $160,000, Sheriff Bigham got a tip that Arthur Crouch might be In New Zealand, so he packed his bag, got extradition order from President Hoover and set out on what is probably the longest extradition jour- Bey In criminal history. Sheriff Bigham reached New Zealand In about a month and In a little town near Auckland known as Heiensville, he sought .lofcn Grey, the president of the golf club, school board member, and agent of the public trust fund which handles the estates of deceased persona John Grey would be able to tell him abou| Arthur Crouch if anyone could. John Grey was the leadtnff citlsen of the community. Got Extradition. sheriff walked into John Grey's office. John Grey was Arthur Crouch. They shook hands and had a little talk and the sheriff went away to set legal machinery in motion. There was a public mass meeting In Helensville to protest. There were petitions. Meanwhile the wheels of New Zealand law ground slowly on and in due course the courts recognised the Presidential warrant. Regretfully, Arthur Crouch, late John Grey, was surrendered to the Texas sheriff. With the four Crouch children left In charge of the business, Mr. and Mrs. Crouch packed up and started the long Journey to Justice. Sheriff Bigham is not an obtrusive man. He kept in the background, half apologetically. There are no handcuffs or leg irons in his creed In such cases. He and Mr. and Mrs. Crouch went on the ship as a trio of friends off on a journey to America. Hopes to Frse Crouch. Now with the trio In Texas Is an nnobstrusive New Zealander--John J. Terry, a distinguished barrister. He has come to co-operate iflth American lawyers in pleading the case of John Grey--now Arthur Crouch. "You see," explains Mr. Terry, "in his 13 years with us Mr. Grey has led an exemplary lift Aidmt Un of Abacas The abacus or bead frame, used for counting by the Chinese and Persians and developed as a gift of an instructive nature for children of the prekindergnrten age, dates at least as far back as the time of the ancient Gre&s and Romans.
