CATION of the patrons of the Meriden
creamery to ascertain the income they
were realizing per COW for milk sold
to the creamery, with this result:
The poorest herd averaged per COW, sG54 an
nually, and the best one $500. making differ
ence OF s5455 per COW. Taking the poorest
i've herds the average per COW is t9-44 and for
the best i've &sS7 "A, a difference Of s2ASO, or 20
per cent Where records have been kept IL
has been found that it takes from SD to $50 to
pay for keeping q cow It viii thus be seen
that far as milk IS concerned the COWS from
the poorest herds are running their owners in
debt the only redeeming feature being the
value Of the calf produced These figures illus

possibility OF materially increasing the income
