Livestock Prices Improve
If more of the dairy cows of the country, were examined
from the critical basis of efficiency, as a factory is ex
amined by the owner, there would be many of the cows
for sale or trade. Inefficient sows for milk production are
cutting down the incomes of thousands of dairymen.
The Bank of Vernonia knows that there is a constant need for improve
ment in dairy herds of this cimmunit.y as well as ohter .sections. We are
keenly interested in this profitable proluction and are glad to assist in
building up and bettering the herds of farmers who are in our banking
territory.
We urge every progressive dairyman to attend the Pacific International
