The careful selection of cattle for bring about better and better butterfat producers during each succeeding generation has had a "startling effect, when the figures from the inauguration of the. tuovement In 1006 to 1930 are compared. In 1006 the average butterfat produced in a year by an a vera ge cow was 21.fi pounds. In 1030 this figure had fncreased to 302 pounds, or nearly a *50 per cent increase. • ' V , • This figure . for butterfat doesn't mean batter ltsfelf,.because the yield of butter is always greater than the jveiglat of the butterfat. For instance, flaring fronr the butterfat test in 40 Iter cent, creahl the total weight of the butterfat Is niffltipiled by 1.2 and* the resultant flgure is the ; field of butteiV- -. ill the ^st of whole uiilfc„ the fjieto^iisert lit Estimating the .yield Is 1.1 ^Tii use 'definite figure,*. 1,000 pounds of 40 per cent : creairi would represent, of course, 400 pounds of. butterfat. This creain, when churned, would yield 480 pounds of butter. The manner in which the butterfat yield Is increased Is to take offspring of known producers of large percentages of butterfat and build up herd's from them. In each succeeding generation those which show a retrogression or halt in the progress toward. better yield Are discarded and only the better producers used for breeding purposes. Of course, most of the effort is centered on sires which are offspring of big- butterfat producers.-- Exchange. Ration's Effect on the "Nutritive Value of Milk When the feed supplied a cow does not contain enough mineral matter to supply tlie- milk she produces with the mineral constituents normally found therein, she draws upon her own bones to supply the amount lacking. Some investigators hold that the addition of inorganic minerals to the ration does not help the cow*, because she is unable to assimilate minerals in that form. But she can assimilate minerals held in organic combination. This Is one reason why legume hays, which contain a relatively high per* centage of mineral' matter, . are so valuable. For two years the Ohio experiment station has been -feeding milk to rats from cows that were feci a ration very high in protein and from cows that were fed a ration very low In protein, with Identically the same results. This was merely another way of testing the nutritive value of milk secreted by. cows fed different rations with respect to their protein content. Calves fed on this same milk did equally well. In other words these tests, conducted with a view of studying the biological qualities of milk, again demonstrated that its composition is not altered by the nature of the feed the cow consumes.4--Wisconsin Agriculturist.

Mr. Meister Is superin Undent of the Elyrla, Ohio, Methodist TBS ITfiSN&Y PLAUfDEALISR, THURSDAY, MARCH 2,1933 MOTORISTS HARD HIT BY NEW TAXES Contribute Heavily to Coal of Government. Washington. --A heavy stare.of federal, state, and municipal government costs is being borne by automobile owners throughout the United State* as the result of new taxes enacted during the past two years. Revenue of more than $250,000,000 was expected to accrue to the United States government through the excise tax passed by congress at its last session and which levies on gasoline, oil, tires, and all accessories. States and municipalities also have tapped new fountains of income by levying upon motor vehicle owners. In the 12 years from 1010 to 1931 state license and gasoline taxes alone have risen from $8.68 to $34.10 per capita, an increase of 292 per cent. The tax bill which Air. Car Owner in the United States paid during 1932 is estimated at the stupendous total of $1 ,r»00,OOo.OQO, this figure including the new federal tax and the state and local increases. In license fees, gasoline taxes, municipal, . and persorfal property taxes on motor vehicles during 3-93.1 the motorist" paid a national total'-of. $i,oer>,(KWH)0. One-tenth of the entire United States tax bill was the amount paid by motor car owners during 1931 through license fees, gasoline taxes, and personal property taxes on vehicles. The percentage. is expected to .be higher when the figures, for 1982 are available. » From figures obtained from all parts of the country it appears that raising the tax on gasoline has been a favorite means of providing new revenue for states. In some states this levy has beep pyramided to the point where the gasoline tax amounts to 11 cents a gallon. While the old-time tpll houses that once lined the nation's principal highways as a means of collectirtg enough money to pay for the roads and keep them in repair have passed into history, the modern gasoline filling station. according to leaders of the automotive industry, .has just about taken the place of the toll house. Gasoline filling stations today are toll collecting agencies for federal, state, and, in many cases, for county and city governments. On a basic tax of 5 cents a gallon, a light passenger car consuming one gallon of gasoline each 20^ miles pays a road toll tax Of •$r>0 for every 20,000 miles. Famed Thieves' Market of Moscow Is Abolished Moscow. -- Wirh the closing of Sukharevsky market the Soviet capital lost an Institution of ill fame which was part of Moscow life for generations, A sort, of "thieves' market" before and after the revolution, it became in the last few years the last stamping ground of private traders, legitimate and otherwise. In ordering Its abolition the Soviet felt it necessary to explain that the construction of new modern markets made this" one unnecessary. The local press supplemented the official apologies by attacking Sukharevsky market as a hotbed of theft and speculation and disease. The, fame of Sukharevsky went far beyond Moscow. It, wis known throughout the country. The market presented a scene far more Asiatic than European. Besides rows of booths where government goods, were being sold there were others presided over by peasants trying to dispose of farm products under the Kremlin's new permission to trade on a free market basis. f Buyers and sellers milled^ in a noisy confusion. Men, women, and children stood or promenaded all day long to dispose of a bottle of oil, a pair of pants, galoshes, or some other article. With the increasing shortage of food and clothes in the last year these became the principal items of trade on Sukharevsky. It was chiefly at this market that thieving employees of government shops sold tWar loot through intermediaries. DAIRY NOTES Other things being equal, the more clover or alfalfa a dairyman gives his cows, the less protein he "heeds to purchase for balancing his grain mixture. • • • After calves are six months of age they will make normal growth on grain and hay. Pasture of good quality, abundant in quantity, is enough for heifers nine months or more of age. ' .Dairy rations Ho not iwed to conto as much high-priced protein as was>commonly thought a few years ago, in the light of recent experiments of E. S. Savage-of Cornell university, New York. • • • Legume hays and silage both, produce the amount of grain required to produce milk and thus reduce! feeding costs and Increases profits, , • * * Cows that go on pasture too early because of lack of available rougliaite are likely to be underfed tljfroughout all the summer months. * » • The better the feeder understands his cows, the characteristics of feeds and the general principles involved, the better able he will be to make the "changes as the need arises. . \ Bevo, Steer Grid Mascot, Is Sent Back to Ranch Austin, Texas.--Bevo n, brawny Leghorn steer, cut such a swath at Texas university that the flesh and blood mascot has been expelled from the school and sent back to the Diamond T ranch, on the Mexican border, whence he came.
