GEORGIA COW PAYS A
VERY GOOD DIVIOEND
On The Original Investment
Made
(Special to Times-Recorder.)
Atlanta, Ga„ August 9.—There is a
cow on the dairy farm at the State
College of Agriculture, at Athens, Ga.,
which has just paid 8 per cent, on an
investment of $3,835.50 in about eleven
months. This five year old registered
Jersey cow, Georgia bred is also Geor
gia fed—her principal foodstuff being
cotton seed meal.
Her record is considered so remark
able as an evidence of what can be
done in Georgia, along this line of
neglected opportunity that The Coun
try Gentleman, The Saturday Evening
Post among farm publications, in its
current issue, carries a picture of this
cow and a half page article about her
record, and that of other dairy cows,
prepared by Prof. Milton J. Jarnigau
of the faculty of the State College of 1
Agriculture.
This article is all the more interest
ing by reason of the splendid showing
made through the use of cotton seed
meal, as a feed stuff for dairy cows,
which is so strongly endorsed by the
leading agricultural colleges and ex
periment stations which are making
similar tests.
In the ten months and twenty-oue
days, during which this cow was milk
ed she produced 7,215.1 pounds ot
milk which sold at forty cents a ga!
ion. This amounted to $335.58. Her
bull calf was sold for SSO and he*’
manure for S3O, making a total income
of $415.58. The cost of feed and pas
turage was $58.74, and the cost of la
bor incident to her keep SSO, so that
.the total cost for the time was $108.7-1.
leaving a net profit of $306.84, which is
eight per cent on $3,835.50.
PROTEST AGAINST SLAN
DESCRIBING BAITGAMES
Chicago, Aug. 9. —A protest against
the use of slang in accounts of base
ball games has been headed by a Chi
cago newspaper which will let Its
readers decide by vote the future style
of these writings. In the plea for the
correct use of English some followers
! of the game assert they are unable to
I follow the plays because of the slang
| phraseology of the stores,
j President B. B. Johnson of the Amer
ican league, said today he would be
I »
glad to have the question of preference
for styles of reporting baseball games
decided. “I have often wondered which
style readers as a rule prefer,” he
said. “I am not ready to commit my
-1 self.”
President Thomas Chivington of the
American association, prefers intelli
gent descriptions of games “without
so much' slang as many writers af
fect.”
“I think that slangy writing has gone
to seed,” asserted Mr. Chivington. “In
the smaller, cities especially, it seems
every baseball writer is under the
impression that he must be funny in
describing the game. Some of their
stories are exceedingly hard to in
i
terpret.“

Would you consider that this newspaper was well
managed if it issued according to the mood of its publish
2rs instead of at regular, stated and invariable intervals ?
Would you think it a good newspaper if it printed
at welve-page issue at one time and a one-page hand-bill
nat aother time ?
Would you feel that it was serving its constituency
sffectuallv if, now and then, it suspended issue entirely
to resume at some time when the publisher felt inclined ?
Your store serves your patrons with store news
through its advertising. They assume that there is
always store news worth telling—store news that is
important to them.
Is it not poor policy tor a store, as it would be for a
newspaper, to serve its patrons in a spasmodic, undepend
able way ? If your store is important to the people of
.'•he city, your advertising is important to them all the
ime—not merely now and then.
The size of vour advertising should not vary any
more than the size of a newspaper varies, and the appear
ance of your advertisement should be as frequent and
regular as the appearance of this newspaper.
