Placed in competition with each

puted' and publiehod. ' 'Plie dairy herd
at the elation, was established in
189ei, aad the bulletin covers the
petioci of ete years.
In order to ma,ke comparleon of
results 011 besis ot type, the herd
was divided into three eiasses-the
small dairy, the large dairy, and
the duiti-perpose type.
Pasture was figured at $1.50 per
month, and other feeds at average
Wisconsin reelect prices; while the
butter was figured, at 20 cents rOr
pound, and the skim milk at 1.5
cents per 100 pounds. The butter
was computed on tbe basis of 85.7
Per, cent of of one pound of butter-
fat -in the milk equivalent to one
pound of finished butter.
The results reached by the Ex-
periment Station as summarized
were as follows 1 '
"Cows of the large dairy type
preferahle.--From the data present-
ed it well be seen that, everything
considered, cows in group 13, repre-
senting the large 'dairy type, are
clearly in the lead for economic pro-
duction of milk and butterfat. The
results of over four sears' work
with cows of the extreme dairy type,
represented in group A, not only
failed to establish the claims for
the superiority of cows "of ties type
over a much larger and 'apparently
stronger dairy 'type, but clearly
showed that they are not as largo
producers, nor as profitable 'dairy
animals, as the latter.
'"nhat the extreme dairy type has
been popular, at least in this state,
is evinced, among other reasons, by
the fact that three of the cows sel-
ected for the university herd at our
.solicitation by prominent dairymen
of our state were fair representatives
of this type of cows, and are 'includ-
ed in group A. Our investigations
have been conducted uder the most
favorable conditions possible for this
type of cows; the stable in which
they have been kept is considered a
model one, as regards cleanliness,
light, ventilation and, general com-
fort of the animals, and water is
provided for thorn in the stalls so
that they are not exposed in-
clement weather at any time. They
nee given the best of care and at-
tention at all times; being fed lib-
erally; kept during the hot summer
months in the cool, darkened barn,
protected from sun and dies; and are
fed various green feeds and grain in
summer, as well as protected from
cold in winter.
"In view of the ever-increasing
demands on the part of dairymen for
cows that will hae-e endurance and
a.bility to withstand diseases, as
well as great productive capacities,
we do not hesitate to state that in
our opinion it is not the part of
wisdom for our 'dairymen to select
the small refined cows with a spare
habit of body in an extreme degree
as the most 'desirable type of dairy
cows.

AUSTItALI.e. ALARMED.
The EmigrationIs .6.1xceeding the
Immigration.
According to the London Globe, the
steadily increasing number ot de-
partures from New South Wales and
Victoria, Inc Canada, South Africa
and even Groat Britain. is beginning
to awaken alarm in the common-
wealth. During the first six months
of the past year, according to °fed -
al reports, no fewer than 16,327 per- -
sons left New South Wales alone for
ports outside the Coinnionerealth, the
emigration exceeding the immigration
2,116. In addition, there bas been
a large influx of New South Wales
and Victorian population into West-
ern Ahstralia. This is one of the
immediate effects of socialist 'labot
legislation in the Mother State and
Victoria. The people who are leaving
Australia, are no mere birds of pas-
sage. They- are mostly a class Who
havebean born or long ago settled in
duction and butter -fat. For the Australia, many being steady, cern-

SEED POTATOES.
Potatoes to be used for seed, ought
to be selected the previous fall. Only
medium-sized tubers should be used.
The practice of selecting small po-
tatoes of unmarketable size for seed
is contrary to the pi inciples of plant
breeding. Growers should select
seed Which is typical of the potatoes
they wish to produce. Neither the
largest, nor smallest are best, but
those of uniform size.
Tees° potatoes during the winLer
should be kept in a coolcellar,
where tithe will be subject neither
to fr,ost nor to heat from the fur-
nace. If a cellar furnishing the pro-
per conditioes cannot he secured,
tnen the potatoes should be banked
in the fall and covered securely with
straw and earth to keep them from
freed ng.
It is often thought that in order
to get 'good seed potatoes it is neces-
sary 'to purchase from Mettle each

are trades unionists. The non -union-
ist, under the riew order of things,
has no place in Australia. The New
South Wales Industrial Arbitration
Court and the Victorian Wages
Boards each refuses. to tecognize his
existence. He reest either join a
trade union or stare°. And this in
a land capable of supporting the
whole of the European population
several times over.

"You mean," suggested the precise ,
solicitor on the other side, "that you

"Yes; if you would rather .havo it
put in that way," replied the defen-
dant. •
Shortly afterwards, in the course
of his cross-examination, the solici-
tor asked tbe defendant a -
