Butler C ary’s Hot S p rin gs ESTACADA, OREGON feed she centumee. fo rty per cent is used in the ease of good farm cow» and sixty per cent in the case of poor eowa. Dairy herd improvement can he ac' complished by getting rid o t the cewa who take aixty per cent of t*e total ration far maintenance alone and re placing them by varioua means with the tews that will only take forty per cent of their total ration for the main tenance ef life. This ie accomplished first by the elimination of the peor co 4 s followed by the breeding ef the cows that are good enough to keep in the herds to bulls whose ancestors are known to be high preducers. This ia followed by proper feeding methods that will moke it peasible for any cow te produee all that abe is capable of producing. Dairy improvement along these lines hove been carried out in wide arena largely threugh cow testing associa tions wherein farmers are erganised for the purpose of having racords kept ef the cows so that they can take first ■Ups in this herd improvement. Then these farmers secure good bulls and by proper feeding metheds Uke the third principal aUp. In ene case ia Tilla mook connty there ia a group of farm ers wqe have succeeded in increasing the prodsetien of their herd to more than twice the averrge of the eowa in the county. This has been brought about by the elimination of poor eowa and the breeding up of eowa that re mained. Oregon has simply Uken taken e lit tle further eUp than any ether state in ceanection with livestock improve ment. It is generally recognised among progressive farmers that pro gress ran only bo made through the i use of improved registered stock Ore gon has simply illegaliaed the sale of scrub atoek and in this way it ia hoped that many farmers will be more quick ly eneoaragod to use good airea. It ie a safe to assume that from one- fourth to ono-t bird of ths dairy cows boiag kept ia Oregon at the present time ere not paying for their food. The provisions of this law are very simple. A Dairy Bull Registration Board ia created. The staff of the de partment of Husbandry of 0. A. C. ie named aa the Board. No bull can be sold uaiees it is licensed by the Board. To receive a license, the owner of the bull must apply to the hoard for a li cense and moat aecoaapaay hia hie ap plication by a ragistratioa blank from the breed association shewing that hia bull boa been registered. He meet al so present a certifieete »bowing that the animal ia free from infectious dis ease. Upon fulfilling these require ments and paying a fee of 91.00 he will be issued a license by the board. The law only applies to bulla of dairy breeds (Holstein*, Gsurnsevs. Jerseys, Ayrshires and Brown Swiss), that are to be used for breeding purposes, it has nothing whatever to do with the sale of scrub bulls or inferior pure bred bulla for meat. It does not prohibit the use of a scrub bull by a man who wants to breed for himself. There is a provision in the law which makea it possible for the board te waive the re quirements of the act at any time there ia a scarcity of pure bred bulla or when the price ie unreasonable. »j j j i 1. u g g — — — aa— aw — ¡¡R\ A Newspaper w ith a Circulation So large that it reaches every nook and corner of the section in which it is published is the only medium profitable For Advertisers and The Post Qualifies w ith o u t com petition.
