To take care of a herd of 29 poor cows re quires much handwork.- The man who does not use his head must work harder with his hands. The value of association records is not limited to the improvement of the females of the herd, . but may also be used to determine the true value of the herd bull or the bulls in the bull association. If the vicinity of Orove City, . Pa, there are two bull associations and one cow-testing association. From the latter, recorda are now avail able, for the yearly production ot IX daughters or the bull-aasocla-lion bulls as well as for the dam ot each daughter. When all recorda were figured to maturity, It waa found that oa an average the 'dams produced 8, 785 pounds ot milk in a year and the daughters 8.212 pounds. The dams averaged 355 pounds of but terfat a year and the daughter 394 pounds. 1 Thus the daughters produced about 6 per cent more milk and about '11 per cent more butterfat than their dams. The fig ures further showed that the daughters were by six bulls: and lliat In no rase did any daughter bring discredit to her sire. Wliat would have happened if the 18 daughters had been aired by scrub or Inferior bulls la not hard to guess. In nearly every case a row4est Ing association depend upon the activity of a few progressive farm ers and center around the- Idea that every dairyman should know the individual record of his cow If he Is to manage and develop bis herd profitably. The knowledge can be obtained through cow-testing association records. A copy of the bulletin telling how to start and conduct an asso ciation may be aecured tree of charge a long as the supply lasts, by writing lo the United States De partment ot Agriculture, Washing ton, D. C. First-class. profitable dairy farms are usually found In groups. The center of each group Is some farm, some man, some idea, says Ihe United Stales Department of Agriculture. The "32 cow-lestlng associations now active In the United Slates represent that many groups If Improved dairy farms. What has been accomplished by these associations is told in Farm ers' Bulletin 1446. entitled "Cow Testing Associations and Stories the Records Tell," and Is now ready for distribution. The purpose of this bulletin Is lo show Ihe need and Ihe value of cowtestlng association, to pre sent briefly some of Ihe outstand ing results obtained from a tabul ation of cowtesilng association data, and to show how such asso ciations muy be organized and con ducted. In most sections of the country we have enough cows, but not good enough cows, says the author of the bulletin. Our slogan should not be "More Cows" but "More flood Cows " Here Is one place . where there Is sn abundance of room al the lop. Knowing the In dividual production records of Ihe cows In Ihe herd l one way to get more good rows. This Information la made aval'sble to dairymen through Ihe row-testing associa tion. In Ihe Newsrgo County. Michi gan, cowtesilng association the herd that one year had the highest average production of bulterfat per cow consisted of 10 cows, and the herd that bad the lowest average production consisted of 20 rows. The herd of 10 cows had a total In come over cost of feed of litis and the herd of 20 cows H55. The own er of Ihe lsrger herd needed nine more cows of the kind he was keeping to get as much Income over cost cf feed as was produced by Ihe snisn.'r herd. It la hetiff-, however, lo own 10 good rows than 29 poor ones. It demands less labor and other costs. It Is economically unwise to put fertilizer on Oregon soils de ficient In lime, says Ihe experi ment stution. "Sluggish" soils do not muke Ihe best use of fer tiliser while lime adds "tilth" to the soil.
