A sidcliglit on the rapidity with which the British and Russian plenipoteiitiarics at Tcher- an decided the fate of the country to which they are accredited has been thrown by the past of the British Minister, Sir Reader Bullard. Sir Reader is said to be as conversant with the Rus- sian language as lie is with English and French. At Moscow and Lcniizgrad he passed four years as Consul General from 1930 onward. In 1936 he took a specialized knowledge of the Arab countries to the British Lcgation at jcdtla, where he exchanged consular for diplamatic

The Ohio State University specialists recom- mciitl that six or eight weeks’ “vacation with pay" annually be given to dairy cows to keep tlicni in condition for the production campaign, just now spcctletl up for tlic national defense program. The exports explain the iiccd for bo- vinc vacations by saying dairy cows are artificial animals crcatccl by man from early models which gave only a few hundred pounds of milk each year. Now dairyiiicn want cows that average 10.000 pounds of milk annually. Milk contains a high percentage of watcr, but it also contains minerals and other fond constituents that are iiiantifacttirrtl within the cow's body. If- this iiiantifacttirc tiroccctls continuously from one lactation In the nr-xl, the ceaseless drain on physique reduces vigor, so the milk production over a period of years will be less than if the icmv had rest periods each year. The “vacation with pay"—in the form of extra fccd~permits ltlie cow to build up reserves for the beginning of the next lactation.
