The Statesman DALLAS The dairymen are catching on. Low producers do not pay. Culling of low-producers in dairy herds has increased during the past couple of months in Polk County, Milton Coram, Polk Coun ty Dairy Herd Improvement Asso ciation supervisor, said Sunday. What is true in Polk County is true the country over, dairy men believe. A few years ago. a cow that produced below 100 pounds of butterfat was poor. Production of 250 to 300 was fair, and certainly not a cow to discard. Corum said that a number of dairymen now have culled cows that are producing in the neigh borhood of 300 pounds annually of butterfat as "boarders." or cows "not paying their way." Cows not making more than 300 pounds but terfat cannot stay In the herd eco nomically during this period of lower prices to dairymen. Corum pointed out The oast 30-day report of the Polk County DHIA shows 24 herds on the standard test plan. These herds Include 801 cows. On the owner-sampler plan. 10 herd are now on test, and these include 173 cows. The two plans of testing and recording keeping, have provided for a Bood culling -program in dairy herds not only in Polk Coun ty but throughout the nation. Some of the programs are pretty well filled up, and there is a waiting list, bat Corum said Sunday that there are openings for more dairy men now to participate in the owner-sampler program, an eco nomical means of providing the information for dairymen interest' ed in culling their herd. Coram 's report showed that the cows on standard test produced an average of 760 pounds of mux containing 35.4 pounds of butter' fat for the past 30 days. In the owner-sampler herds, which are normally smaller herds, the aver age milk production was 845 pounds, and the average fat pro duction 39.8. Cows completing the 305 days during the past 30-day period, and winning honor roll place are: Re gistered Jersey. 5 years old. own ed by Walter Lierman.
