Dear Sir-
HavltiK spent two weeks In company

pre-med with the won lerful opportuni
ties for dairying that are presented

of a better mnrket- Transportation
charges are high and It Is essential
that bulky crops be concentrated be

plished by (ceding to live stock nnd so

The more cattle, sheep, hogs and
dairy products and the less hay and

country the better.
IJvn stock farming. If praptfty con
ducted, results In n law Income. In

Dairying Is particularly adapted to
Intensive methods of farminK and Is n
prni liable Industry oven on hi h

The erriclenl daln cow yields In
her milk mm h more food fit for human
consumption Hum is bided In any
of the meat producing animals This
fact explains why dairying continues
to prosper in thickly settled communi
ties while the production of beef and
mutton Is forced back Into nv.lons of
lower priced hinds and cheap pasture

Ideal food lor the daln cow These

a cow With the yields Riven above It
Is seen that an acre will produce more
than ennui: h to keep two cows a year.
An efficient cow should yield .'100
pounds of butter fat yearly. With
two cows to the acre we Ret 600 lbs. of
butter fat at HOc per pound $180.00 la
not this better than selling hay at
$.". N per loll "
To he successful In dairying, bow
ever. It Is necessary that only good
cows be kept. Too much emphasis
1 'iiiuiot be put on this statement. There
Is a vast difference In the producing
nbllltv of different cows. In many
herds this variation is so great that
the poorest cow does not make more
than one quarter as much milk as
the best OM and both are fed alike
A system of record keeping should he
adopted so that these poor cows can
be detected ami weeded out.
The profit of the business Is limited
to the producing ability of the cows
In the herd and only such cows should
he kept as are able to give good ac
count of the food consume!
Only pure bred bulls, from high pro
ducing cows should be used If an In
crease In production with each suc
ceeding generation Is desire).
I look for a great Increase In tho
number of dairy cows In the near
future and predict that this Industry
will prove a Mi-, factor in developing
