RECORD LAD'S IOTA
NOT MADE BY ACCIDENT
Dallas, Apr. 14, 1922 It is with a
feelinsr almost of reverence that we
look upon the record of Lad's Iota,
new champion of the Jersey breed
who has just closed a year's produc
tion of over 1047 pounds of butter
fat. There comes too a sense of pro
found respect fr her owner and care
taker, Mr. McKee, and for this great
animal's breeder, Mr. Hewett.
To produce and to feed a cow to
a record of 1000 pounds of fat is a
distinction that comes to but a few
men. The 1000 pound class of breed
ers and feeders is not crowded.
How fc such production possible?
Iota was provided with the material
of which to manufacture that record
quantity of milk and fat she was
well and properly fed. McKee knew
her needs and met them.
She was made comfortable. Care:
effunts.
And the cow had it "in her" to pro
duce. She comes from a long line of
dairy animals bred for just that
kind of work.
Feed, care, breeding they win.
Now a session at each of the
dairy demonstration farms in the
county on the science of breeding
dairy stock for high and profitable
production with Professor Fitts, dairy
specialist of the College Extension
serivce, pointing the way:

being
folded, attempted, with the most sur
prising results to pin the tail on the
picture of a bunny, who lacked that
important decoration. Little Carolyn
Clifford succeeded in fastening the
tail most nearly on the spot where
nature intended it. After games and
a story the children donned gaily
colored caps and in time to music
marched to their places at the dining
table, which was decorated in a man
ner (.uggestive of Easter. The center
piece was a pen containing real live
baby chicks, while at each place
stood a wee white rabbit eating a
carrot and watching over an egg shell
nest in which cuddled two wee chicks
on a nest of cotton. Each child took
home as a memento his table favors
and his share of the colored eggs
brought to light in the egg hunt.
Little guests present were: Verla
Becken, Carolyn Clifford, Molly Bob
Small, Beryl Kelley, Prudence and
Georgiana Gray, Margaret Foster,
Robert Maillie, Eugene MacCarthy,
Bonnie Radmacher, Edwin Hugh
