Be an Inter national Farmer, and we will back you up by International Ser vice, which is prompt, dependable and permanent. Vf hat an Experienced Farmer Knows Any farmer of experience can tell about how long his farm ma chinery will run before the parts that need replacement will wear out. These include, with many others, shares, shovels, guards, knives, sections, blades, teeth, etc. Order Repairs Early All these items should be listed and ordered early far In advance of the time when they will be needed. You will save time and money by ordering all the repairs at one time. This will save you money later in the season, when you may be obliged ta pay for long distance telephone calls, and express or parcel post charg es on numerous small orders. When Delays are Expensive And, what may later prove much more costly than these charg es, is the time lost waiting for repairs just when the implement should be working to capacity in the field.

This farmer says: "The cow testing in the west sec tion of Outagamie county has been carried on with marked success. “We have become belter acquaint ed. The man who has been taking good care of his cow has also become better known. "We have learned to' know our cows not by what they seemed but by what They actually are, to under stand the necessity of selecting heif- er calves from our best cows to be raised for our future herd. “We have learned to look on the dairy cow not as a necessary cur personal property but a real live machine, capable of returning values received plus, and that plus depend ing largely upon the care, feed, and breeding of the dairy cow."
