Popularity of Testing Associa
tions in United States.
NOW 459 IN THIS COUNTRY
Total Number of Animals July 1, 1917,
Placed at 23,372,200, of Which
91 Per Cent Numbered In
These Societies.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment oe Agriculture.)
The popularity of co-operative cow-
testing associations In the United
States is shown by the fact that there
are now 459 in this country, In which
records of cowa are systematically
kept. Forty states now have associa
tions. On July 1, 1917, there were
11,720 herds, with a total of 211,966
cows being tested regularly in these
associations. The total number of
milch cows In the United States at
that time was 23,872,200, of which
0.91 per cent were numbered in these
organizations.
Five Associations.
The first cow-testing association was
organized In Newaygo county, Mich
igan, January, 1006, Is still in exist
ence, and now has 80 herds with a to
tal of 804 cows. The following year
three new associations were organized
in that state. In 1908 three were or
ganized in Maine, and one In New
York. The next year five other states
entered the list.
Wisconsin Leads.
Wisconsin now leads in the number
of associations, 81 being In operation
n that state. Other leading states are
Vermont with 47, New York with 43,
Iowa and Ohio with 80 each, Minne
sota with 26 and Pennsylvania with
24. DurlDg the year ended June SO,
1917, 95 new organizations were established.

pole for the bottom roll and a 2x6 inch

Inches In diameter.
The bottom rail Is held in place

The top rail Is secured by a pleco of

MUCH LOSS DUE TO RODENTS
Farmer Should Build Cribs and Gran
arlei to Exclude Rata and Mice
to Save Big Watte.
One of the big wastes on the farm
Is the loss (hie to mlco nnd rats.
This loss In the United States runs
Into millions of dollars every year,
and each farmer should endeavor to
reduce this waste by building cribs and
granaries so that rodents will be ex-
lmlotl.
PRODUCTION OF POULTRY
The average size of tne farm
flock In the United States Is 40
hens. If the average Is In
creased to 100 hens next year
there will be an Increase of 6,
500,000 pounds af much needed
food poultry and eggs. An
equal number of pounds of beef
and pork would thus be saved
for army purposes. Many farms,
of course, can have flocks of
several hundred, and some
farms -will have to keep less.
But the effort of the food ad
ministration is to increase the
farm average to at least 100
hens.
It is an astonishing fact that
there are l'a million eggless
farms in the United States an
economic anomaly and an agri
cultural absurdity. Even If we
bad. never been forced to go to
war with Germany this condi
tion would be one demanding
every effort at correction for !
each farm can, at least, produce
sufficient poultry and eggs for ,
home consumption, and thereby
be a more profitable farm. t

A WOMAN'S BURDENS

SPARROW OF GREAT BENEFIT
Bird Has Been Unjustly Maligned,
8aya Kansas Expert Devours
Much Weed Seed.
The despised and lowly English spar
row Is In reality ns much of a benefit
as a detriment to the farmer, In the
opinion of Dr. Mary T. Harman, as
sistant professor of zoology In the Kan
sas state agricultural college.
"The English sparrow," said Doctor
Harman, "has been greatly maligned,
and In many cases unjustly, because of
Its habit of nesting in barns, under the
eaves of porches, nnd even In attics.
"The sparrow Is doing much toward
keeping down the dandelion pest. The
birds are seed eaters and weed seeds
are an important factor in their menu.
English Sparrow.
One of the strongest arguments In fa
vor of the birds, Is that they consume
large numbers of termites, cabbage
worms, and alfalfa weevils. The food
of the sparrows In the city Is mostly
wusto material.
"In a few cuses where the destruc
tion of the sparrows is desirable, pois
oned bait such as wheat and other
small grains may be used. It must be
remembered, however, that what will
kill the sparrows will also kill more
deslrablo birds. As a general rule the
good thut the spurrow accomplishes
more than offsets the harm."
BUILDING UP A DAIRY HERD
Essential That Dairyman Be Breeder
Muat Produce Milk, Cream or
Butter of Quality.
Experience has taught the farmer
who is In the dairy business. It Is
very essential that lie raise the cows
on the farm that are to constitute the
future dairy herd. He must bo a
breeder in the full sense of the word.
He must be as particular and
thoughtful as the man who is raising
thoroughbred high-price stock. He
should have a detlnlte purpose and
definite mental picture how best to ac
complish that purpose. Form and
beauty breeding must give way to a
breeding for a fixed purpose that Is,
production of milk, creuin or butter of
the best quality, und nt the lowest cost
of feed, lubor and ilxed charges thut
must be met. All side issues should bo
abandoned and his brain, eupltal and
Influcncu be given to building up his
dairy's performance.

ROAD BUILDING LARGE TASK
President of National Hlghwaya Aaso-
olatlon Telia How a areat ejya
tern Can Be Built
Thnnks to the pushful, pervasive
motor car, American road building has
"got a move on" nt last. There Is ev
erywhere the cry for roads. The draw
back has been thut, ns yet, there has
been no co-ordination of these multi
tudinous enterprises. The president
of the National Highways association.
Charles Henry Davis, in a recent paper
stated that we spent last year $249,-
055,907, or more than two-thirds the
total of money expended so far on the
construction of the Panama canal
for road Improvements throughout the
country. Mr. Davis' contention Is that
good roads, roads that run for thou
sands of miles through state after
state, are, properly, not the responsi
bility of the state, but of the nation.
He would have the federal government
build a system of national roads Join
ing the West with the East, the North
and the South, connecting every part
of the country, as Is the case with the
national highways of Europe, and, as
history shows, such as was the essen
tial equipment of every first-class
power of the past, according to the
Boston Evening Transcript.
How would such an enormous con
struction be paid for and kept up?
"Suppose, asks this eminent engi
neer, "the government built lOO.oou
miles of properly planned roads, and
at the same time purchased, say, 800

feet of land on either side? This land
would so continually Increase In value
and In demand for leasing on long
rental, that the cost of the road and
the land purchase would soon be paid.
A rental rate of $6.06 per acre would
pay the Interest on the cost of con
struction. But such would rent at vast
ly higher rates' In cities and towns,
high enough to give the nation an In
come equal to Its total annual expendi
tures, from these national highways
alone I"

The province of Ontario has ap

More than 43,000 miles have been
treated and are In fairly good condi

Influeace of Road Improvement on Ru

The Influence of road Improvements
on the value of rural property was de
scribed In a letter recently sent to the

of the Baltimore Commercial bank,
who wrote : "Around my home town In
Virginia property could be bought
three years ago for $00 to $80 an acre.
We put a fine road several miles
through that county, and today you
cannot buy anything for less than $100,
and some is held at $150 per acre."
If you must have your meat every
