_ sheepshearing machinery was
bought to supplant tho old-tlmo hand

increase the wool crop about 7%, not
because the machine shears closer

HUNG JURY DALLAS suAGFRTY.
—- i
Lallas, Jan 14-—Hopelessly dead-
locked the jury in the case of Dr. S.
T.r McMurran, Dallas, chirqpracto
charged with violating the Texas
medical practice act, was discharged
by Judge Wiliam Cramer of the Dal-
las county court at-law, No. 2, early.
tonight. The case went to the jury
at 2:03 oclock this afternoon.
The jury reported that they stood
two for acouital and four- for convic-
tion and coqld not reach an agreement
$779399y685.00 Annually
The amor nt of milk spilt, soured,
rejected and otherwise wasted annu-
ally. is 8,S3*.VS4,000 pounus. This at
(2.25 pur hundred wetiid -approxi-
mate annually the stupendous ~
amount of >77,399,<85.
However, a cheerful note rings „
j through this tale of economic loss to
I a nation. The stfrne report shows
a 192 4 increase of 108 pounds of -
milk tier cow over 1923 production.
I*«ducting this from the figure pre-
viously given, leaves .a los^ through
waste of only >13,<07,325, a mere
bagatelle, compared with our na-
tional debt of more than twenty bil-
lions of dollars. I “
The increased yield per cow is due >
to heightened efficiency on the farm;
and future years promise even
greater increases.
Dairymen have discovered the fu-
tility of feeding non-paying members
of their milk herds. They havs
learned that losses lurk in insanitary
milk production. They have dis-
covered the advantages that lie in
swatting the bacteria that hide in
unclean stables, unclipped, un-
brushed flanks and udders of milk
cows and unkterilized utensils. As
time goes on,.the unavoidable waste
of milk will be more than offset by
intelligent feeding, complete sanita-
tion and more efficient herd manage-
ment.
