Prevos B InvemnaTionaL NEws Semvice. S ————— i The Charming Face and Front of Mrs. F. H. Fayne, the New Champion Cow, Which at Only Three Years of Age GEN FAYNE has Just finished the hardest test any lady was ever put fo. For Finderne Holingen Fayne is a lady it ever a cow was. She comes of the best-blooded papa and mamma and grandparents and she's proven herself bet- ter than any of them. Which Is far, far more than many blue-blooded human ladies can say about themselves. Finderne Holingen Fayne is only three years old now, but her year's experiences and the way she has risen to them has made her championess of afl Cowdom. She has shown herself the 100 per cent efficient cow that breeders have been try- ing to produce éver since the creation of milk was ralsed from a haphasard ocou- pation into a sclence and an art. FINDIRNE HOLIN- Her owners expect Finderne to better her year's record. If she does she will be the first 106 or whatever other figure cow that has ever lived. If other breeders should beat her—and there isn't any rea- son why, in time, cows should not be mere milk and butter machines, with pro- duction going on constantly—new standards of 100 per cent efticiency must be in- vented. For, In proportion to her age, her #ize and the food she was given, Mrs. Finderne Holingen Fayne has done everything the present theory of ”~ " 100 per cent efficlency de- mands—and she is the first cow ever to have done so. Here is what she did during her test year just closed, that entitles her to be called the world's Fayne, Who teen Times Her . Own Weight in . e crumpion ciiee some Milk a Year and Nearly Her Weight in Butter Mrs. Finderne Holingen GivesSeven- greatest cow: She gave 24,612 pounds of milk, Bhe gave 1,395 pounds of butter. 8he gave 1,116 pounds of fat, In other words, the marvellous mechan- ism of nature with which she is provided gave in a twelve month seventeen times her own weight—for Finderne weighs 1,450 pounds—in milk! And gave fn butter within 60 pounds her welght! Stop for a moment and think of what those figures mean. And having stopped, let us go on with a few more to show ‘what it means to be a 100 per cent ef- ficlent cow because only by comparisons can fts extraordinariness be realized. About the milk—a milkmald as a rule carries two 12-quart pails from the milk- ing stalls. As a pint 18 a pound, Mrs. Finderne's output in quarts would be 13, 306 quarts a year. It would take, there- fore, a string of 512 and one three-quarter grown milkmaids to carry the year's out- put away! Again, the average full milk meal for & baby is elght ounces, six times a day. Mrs. Finderne’s yearly output, then, would provide one baby with 49,224 meals —or, translated into days, if a baby could remain a baby that many days—8,304 days, or 23 years and 154 days full food supply. Or, another way of putting it, her one year's output would feed 23 ba- bles for one year each and give some other little one 154 days of full stomach. As to the butter—the load an average man can carry is 150 pounds, It would, therefore, take nine men to carry her yearly output of butter if it were formed into a pat and a boy three-tenths”grown would have to carry the 45 pounds left over. Also, that butter would butter a slice of bread ar high as the Woolworth Her Milk. building and onefourth as wide again as it is at its base with the butter one-eighth of an inch thick. N There are a number of other compari- sons that might be made, but it will te much more stimulating to work them out yourselves. Finderne H. Fayne, who, by the way, Is registered as plain No. 144561, was bred and is owned by Bernhard Meyer, of the Findune Farms, at Manville, N.»J. Her father was King Hendvereld Aaggle, who cost $2,000, and was formerly owned by A. A. Courtelyou, of Somervills, N. J, Her Her mother was Mutal Hendvereld Holin- gen Fayne and she was bred by Mr. Meyer at the Finderne Farms. She was a world's champion herself in her prime. Finderne H. Fayne began to’show her mwtal back In 1914, early when she made a seven day record of 37-34 pounds of butter with 150.33 pounds in 30 days—ralsing the record over two pounds in the seven day division and nearly nine pounds in the 30-day division. Her nearest competitor is the new Guernsey champlon, “Murne Cowan,” owned by O. C. Barber, of the Adine Farmis, Ohio, who has a record of 1,372 pounds of butter yearly. All that Mrs. Finderne asks for this output is currying and washing twice a day and grazing in good fat meadows during the Summer. Her Winter menu is the following: 50 per cent Shoemaker seed; 20 per cent Hominy meal; 10 per cent ofl meal; 10 per cent gluten meal.

This, however, is a matter for the future Quantities of Milk. | Her year's milk output would give this baby six meals a day for twenty- years and 154 days. The year's L.. puie - plece of bread as high as the Wool- worth tower and a quarter again as wide as the base, with butter !4 of If her year's output of milk are put on the scales it would take seventeen cows of her own weight to balance It While it would take nine men, each cap- able of a load of 180 pounds, to carry her year's output of butter. o B i AT has a church trust. The idea of the trust is to econcmize and to restrain useless churches from ipringing up in almost any and every field, tarted this movement to exist here. In many localities, it is claimed, there are more churches than are necessary, while n others there are more than enough. The Federation's committee will alm to weed these extra churches out. Wherever possible the superfluous churches will be eliminated at once. In one com- munity it has-been found there are five churches where only two are needed. Wherever a church of any depomination is not fully covering the ground another will be started and encouraged, to appeal to the tendemcy toward a more liberal clientele from a religious standpoint. The Federation of Churches, the first church trust in America, it is said, has opened elaborate offices for business in the Union C'lu‘lmzlfldlll in Ch(;t‘lnu. The offices have appearance any busi- ness office, and there will be no especial effort to give the headquarters of this church movement other than a particularly business atmosphere. “We are here for business,” says Secre- tary Fagley. “There has been too much overlapping of work, too much sentimen- tality about church work, and a sad lack of true business efficiency. Many thou- sands of dollars have been lost forever in religious work by striving iz directions that common sense would never justity, too much senseless competition, and too maay cllurches, some eatirely out of sym- pathy with the communities in which they are located. “False pride has had its share in causing heavy losses in trylng to maintain churches which should never have Deen started at a heavy sacrifice. There is no sense in two churches trying to do the same thing ‘where one only is needed; where one good, strong organization woutd be a power for good and have the respect of all. We shall attempt to do away with the sense- less rivalry and competition, and the use- less expense of two complete church bodies, besides the additional likelihood of fomenting personal-jealousies and bickering “Again, the various church bodies can work harmoniously in regard to the col- lection of funds to carry on the various new lines of church endeavor. “The churches in the New Federation of Churches of this city will go about church business henceforth under the new trust idea, for there need be no secrecy between churches, no competition, in the ordinary sense. A corporation has something to sell and will not establish sales agencies to the number of perhaps a half dozen in a city not capable of supporting more than one. Yet we find churches, each in the same line of work actively compet- Copyright, 1915, by the Star Company. Great Britain Rights Reserved an inch thick. A Church Trust to Reduce Ruinous Competition in Soul Saving ing and killing each other’s influence, at least in a figurative sense. It is undoubt- edly better to have one strong church in a community than several weak ones. “It may take some time to do away with the prejudice against interdenominational work in the minds of some of the laymen, and therefore by trained speakers will be given that the new idea may be fully un- derstood and needless opposition over come. New plans for the collection of church funds will be inaugurated, and new systems for the keeping of church accounts an various kinds of church finance will be put forth and encouraged. “There is much to be accomplished by the new idea, much to be worked out as the first ‘Church Trust' attempts to improve the religious fleld along the line of in- creased efficiency of the worker and econ- omize the means of the churchman.” ANy 44 A Gvipt v ?.)"* Finderne Fayne and Her Owner, \ .
