The three high pure bred herds for the month were those of W atts Rice, who has a Jersey herd of 6 cows. The average milk par cow was 834 pounds and the average fat 39.8. R Anliker's Holstein herd produced an average of 1278 pounds o f milk and 39 5 of fat, w h ile the Jersey herd of G. C. Curteman averaged 67 2 pounds of milk and 37.5 o f fat. The three high grade herds for the month were: John Holmes, number of cows. 14; average milk. 776 pounds; average fat. 43.2 pounds. Frank Brown, average milk. 665 pounds, average fat. 30.4. and J W. Curte­ man, average milk 612 and fat 29.7. T he high pure bred cow is Ladv Gay. ow ned by R. B. Magruder with 1086 pounds of milk and 52.1 pounds o f fat. She is a four-year-old Guernsey. Nine boarders were dis­ posed of during the month. Due to the high cost o f hay, the mem bers o f the association are checking up very closely on their boarders. It is stated that a member of the associa­ tion who has been keeping a close tab on his herd recently sold the en­ tire herd and the fact that he was a member of the association probably increased the sale price of each ani­ mal at least $15.
