(eti. In oilier words, the farmer Ih becoming a biiHlneKH man and for the first time in history is calculating shrewdly the cost of prod net Ion mid sgbstraeUng from the proceeds to U -urn how much he is making every day. 'iiiiseuent ly he Is making more than he did. The system that, makes the rural resident, use his head to inuko the work of bis hand more profitable is called the Washington County Cow Testing Association. That doesn't mean testing for tuberculosis or in grown horns, but. testing for produc tion. The dairymen barters with his cows and exchanges feed for butter. M. S. Sshiock, deputy dairy commis sioner, has some figures covering the: daily prod net ion of a number of herds. On" man, for Instance, is paying lilt cents a pound in actual feed for every pound of but ter his cows produce, and this does not In clude shelter or work for the farmer. : Hut the man who lives on the next! farm only pays In feed 1 1 - cents a ; pound for the butter his cows pro- j duce. I What makes ho difference? First; of all. the dilference is In the cow liei-Keii. in icsi ii rean nuntes nine difference whether Hossie Is Jersey, Ayrshire, llolslein or Cneinsey, if she Is I lie approved dairy type. She must be a proper milk machine no niitlli'r what, her variety. Then, as was stated, feed and shel ter make much diii'erence. Hut meas uring each duv by what each cow produees leaches the fanner which are his good cows, ami which the bad and indifferent. He learns if he i ; feeding eiioimh or loo much, and if the food the proper suit. Some cows will pindiue only a lii-ir r three-uuariei-s of a pound or butter a day; some will produce I wo or three ptmniR In u herd of no cows this makes a diii-remo In the speed t lie farmer makes Inward a piano and a- palent plow. Mr.Sch ro k says lie would li ke to see ihe dairymen In other Oregon counties than Washington begin cow testing. It always has ihe eifect of eventually we. -ding out ihe poor cows and put linn good ones in their place.
