Cow Talk.

4
Much has been said aud written
about the COW as mortgage litter
and provider of the necessities and
comforts Of life, but here in the
Prairie Dog valley, her worth can
scarcely be overestimated. The COW
is a large devourer of forage and
gives more 10 return for it than any
other animal, In this valley the COW
may be made to mean more than the
raising Of a calf for the farmer, but
with the lstter.day facilities for max
ing butter, she will not only raise
her calf but raise a number of fine
pigs; besides the sale of the cream to
the creameries will pay the worth of
herself each year.
Other sources Of revenue may fail
for the farmer, but the COW can be
depended upon without grain if any
kind of forage can be had. In this
valley, there Is no need of being
without the best of hay, if the farm
ers will SOW alfalfa, which produces
most luxurantly even in q dry season
A friend of the writer informed us
chat he was down in some of the
southern counties in Kansas at time
when there had been three or four
failures of crops, and asked citizen
how he could stand it so long with
out raising a crop, and he answered;
eve live off of our COWS"
So it ls, if everything else fails the
man who has them can "live off the
cows" If every farmer in the
Prairie Dog valley would see to it
that he keeps from ten to forty COWS,
and large area Of his farm in alfsl-
TO, he can laugh to scorn any crop
failure or occasional dry season =
The COWS will keep his family if he
will give them his attention, and pay
off the mortgage too.
There is some talk of skimming
station being established at this point
in which event the COW of Long Is
land should be strictly in it,"
Sow alfalfa, take care of the COWS,
and our word for IT, the COW will do
the rest. Leader.

available for export is officially esti-
