Prof. Brandt said one-sixth of the food supply Is dependent upon the dairy industry in the form o f milk, butter, cheese and condensed milk. This la furnished by twenty- three million cows.' Of this number For thu about 225.000 are on some 25,000 Oregon farms. Dairying raised the state of Wisconsin from bankruptcy to one of the richest In the union. The value of cows for furnishing fer tilisation to the soil is so Important of all Irinda you will that the citrus growers of California are setting aside parts of their farms, find our prices right building barns and equipping the farm generally, furnishing them out free to some dairyman for the ma nure to renew the trees. Some pro gressive farmers find it pays to build sleeping or rest sheds for the cows during the day, where plenty of straw is used, thus Increasing the manure and humus returned to the soil.

But in keeping cows, keep the ones that are profitable, for it requires only so much feed to keep a cow in health, while the kind and amount of milk she gives determines whether she is profitable or not. It Is esti mated that about one-third, or about seven million cows In the Uni ted States are unprofitable. And of the twenty to twenty-three million cows only from 1,200.000 to 1,500,- 000 are registered. When we re member the reason for breeding pure bloods is to increase the inherent ability to produce richer and more milk, the vast possibilities in this line can be seen. In feeding.
