O. 0. F. Hnll of moro than 40 dairymen. That tho work has been moro than satis factory during tho past 12 months was tho declaration of the associa tion members, practically everyone voting to continue for tho next 12 months. Great crodlt was given J. L. Smith, county agriculturist for his untiring efforts an behalf of tho associations nnd his placing of Coos County In tho lend among tho dnlry counties of tho United States Tho business session was adjourn ed shortly nftor noon whllo tho mem bers gathered nround tho long tables upon which tho women of tho Coos Day Association hnd nprcnil n lunch eon that wns well onjoyed by nil present, Cnkcs nnd pies, such iib can only bo mado nt home, put In their npponrnncc, nnd making tho rounds of tho hungry dairymen, ennio back doplcted but having accomplish ed their work well. For that "aftor dinner smoko" Frank D. Cohan, of tho Owl Drug Storo presented n box of cigars with his compliments to tho visitors. ProfvMfnr IIiiit Talks, In nddresslng tho mombcrs, Pro fessor W. A. nnrr, of tho Oregon Agricultural Collogo, laid great stress on tho retaining of tho cow testing association nftor they nro onco Btnrtod. Tho real vnluo of them, ho Raid, must' como nftor a period of flvo or moro yonrg when tho poor cow imvo bcon gradually weeded front tho herds, giving way to ani mals productlvo of tho greatest nmount of buttor fnt nnd profit. "Tho innln troublo with most dnlrymen," said Prof. llarr, "Is that they do not keop records. They nro unnblo to tell you exactly what n cow Is costing them nnd what sho Is producing. I have found cases whoro anlmnls of this typo woro not bringing tho fnrmor n cent of profit. Soiiiotlmes It Is no wonder that I nenr boiiio dnlrymen sny they can mako nothing nt tho business." HMory of Associations. Ho gnvo n brlof history of tho cow testing nssoclntlons to ahow what they hnvo accomplished. Ac cording to Professor Mortonson, a Dnno, tho associations wcro first organized In Donmnrk 20 years ago. At that tluiu tho uvorago buttor fat production of ench cow In tho coun try was 121! pounds; last year tho product was moro than doubled In Deumurk, "Tho history or (standard herds," ho stntod, "shows constant ollmlna tlon of tho poor class of milk cows. Theru nro two laws provalont tn hlgh-i'lnsa hords. Thoy are, first, that llko produces like, and necond, that thoro Is law of variation. Re ports from agricultural colleges In this country show thnt only about GO per cent of tho offuprhiK of noort blooded dauid nnd sires nro up to tho Btnudards of their parents and ancestors, with cow testing asso ciations, tho dairyman Is nblo to follow each cow every month.

Ho teenmo Interested In tho problem last year nnd aided In Innoculntlitg tho Bced on tho Solnndor plnco and nlso lu sowing tho ncro now In nlf nlfa. Tho results hnvo been en couraging, ho says. "And this wns grown on bench land, too," said Mr. Smith. Over In tho Coqulllo Vnlloy ho told of tvo fields on tho bunks of the rlvor whoro four crops wero raised Inst nr. Tho demonstration, ho points out, bIicwb that alfalfa can bo grown hero, lie ndvlses tho fanners to I o:.perlmont. To start n crop of this perennial Is n painstaking task; ' ot.co completed tho alfalfa repeats every season very enslly. The planting of last year was an ' experiment on tho Solnndor ranch. I Tho seed was Innoculntod with nn ' urtlflclnl culture Quickly thoro I developed on tho roots little no- buloa, germ laden that draw tho) nltrogou from tho nlr through the loaves and stems to the roots, This nitrogen spreads through tho soil, replenishing it with tho food noc- esmry for any crop. Should corn or Borne other crop bo raised on this tract next year, said Mr. Smith. tho farmor would at onco see a dif ference Ho would hnvo hotter success now than uvor boforo. Tho foods nro put back In tho soil that wears out tho same as ma chinery. Llmo Is nooded to corroct thu the ncldlty of tho wills, doclnros the agriculturist. Llmo Is costly and so as tho next best oxpedlout ho udvlsea strongly tho use of clam slioUs pumped up from the bottom of tho bay. Samples sent to O. A.
