tulHS INC luis OF gives ScC1 q
chance to rise.
9. Take the country through
and there IS no other kind OF
farm work so we'll suited to wo-
men as dairying.
IN. nairy'rc leads to thought
fulness for the comfort of ami
mails and thus tends to morality.
To do her best the COW must be
IN zoe a> comfortable as poss'oi
in every way. She will tolerAt
no neglect or cruelty. she is
teacher of gentleness and kind
ness.
II. Dairying is the mos,
progressive of all branches O
farming, both actually ant
prospectively.
A lengthy discourse or essay
might easily be based on each OF
these twelve points of advantage,
but l have not time to enlarge
upon any one of them. But l
wish in conclusion, to still more
deeply impress upon the convlc-
ton of every dairyman and cow
owner present the importance of
keeping none but the best ami
mails atthe pail. l do not doubt
that every one OF you recognizes,
in a sentimental or theoretical
way. the truth of the proposition
that full grown cow that will
not yield at least 200 pounds of
butter every twelve months
should be fattened and sent to
the butcher. That is quite a
low minimum limit, according to
my judgment. 1t is but six
tenths of a pound per day for
eleven mouths of the year. Yet
lam afraid that some of you may
be keeping just such cows. Such
a COW, If healthy and hearty, will
generally present a tempting
mark for the butchers knife, for
if you feed her as a milk COW
should be fed she will convert
the food into steaks and roasts
instead of into butter fat.
But | would not have you to
understand that the cows are
always or altogether to blame.
There is something more needed
besides having good cows. There
must be intelligent handling,
skillful feeding and up-to-date
methods in dairy farm manage
ment. TO acquire these requi-
sites there must be more read
ing, investi CATION, study and ex-
perimentation. There must be
a free interchange of ideas and
experience, kindly criticism and
helpful suggestion.-Ex.

EDITOR GAzETTE-I wish to
congratulate you on the Nov. 1st
issue of the Farm Gazette. It is
interesting, instructive and of
present value to all farmers. If
the paper could be kept up to the
standard of the issue of Nov. LIST,
it would deserve to be in every
farmers home in Mississippi.
The issue is worth the price of a
years subscription.

We have found it no trouble to
induce most any horse to eat 2
to pounds a day of cotton seed
meal when mixed with shelled
oats. This amount of cotton
seed meal, owing TO its great
richness, is half the grain food
required by an ordinary work
horse. Try it. Cotton seed
meal is only half as expensive as
corn when nutritive value is con-
sidered.

This is the time of year to do
fall blowing. We do not think
fall blowing is of any advantage
on ordinary upland. If it had
been done a little earlier and
seed sown for winter pasture, it
would have been a different
proposition. For stiff land with
a heavy coat of weeds and grass
fall blowing is undoubtedly quite
beneficial. The vegetable mat
ter will have time to rot, and will
keep the land loose till spring.

The Advantages of Dairying
President r. J. Redding of
Georgia Agricultural College in
his address to Georgia Dairy
mems association held at Charles
ton said, in part:
l. The first advantage of
dairying is that it takes. less fer
tility from the soil than other
branches of farming. A ton of
wheat takes 81 out of the farm
and sells for less than $40. A
ton of butter takes ffty cents
worth of plant food from the far
and sells for from 50 togo. Com
ment is needless.
z. Butter is condensed
product. Nothing can be made
or grown upon the farm that will
bring as much per pound. Farms
remote from market and COM
munitfes far from railroads can
send butter from farm or cream
cry with the least possible ex-
pense. The dairymen can con-
dense tons of fodder and crops
on the farm into dairy products
and send them to market in com.
pact and portable form.
3. Butter is a finished prod
uct. 1t is ready for the consul
mer either at the private dairy
or local factory, or creamery.
The only exception is where
cream is sent long distances to a
central station from skimm ing
stations scattered over a large
section of country. But this ex-
ception only proves the rule.
4. Dairying brings in a con-
slant income. The man who
sells crops of any kind has to
wait until he can market his
product once a pear There is
little satisfaction in this. 1t is
unbusiness-like to 60 without
cash for fifty-one weeks and then
have lot of money come in at
one time. The dairyman has an
income nearly or quite fifty-two
weeks in the year.
S. Dairying gives constant and
remunerative employment. The
grain or potato grower must
spend a large part of the year in
enforced and demoralizing idle
ness, but the dairyman finds
profitable work throughout the
year, and his work is most
profitable during the winter
TING.
6. On the dairy farm the
work is better divided. The
grain harvest comes so close to
haying that it often gets mixed
up with it to the detrim ent of
both; but when the corn IS grown
and put into the silo for dairy
feed, and not so much or no
grain raised, the harvests are
several weeks apart.
Z. Skill and brain work get
better pay in dairying than in
any. other branch in farming.
To produce fine dairy products
requires something besides hard
work. The dairyman must have
knowledge and skill, and must
exercise great care.
8. There is more room at the
top, greater opportunity to i'm
prove, than in any other kind of
hard work. Cows produce from
$50 to 500 pounds of butter per
year, and butter sells for from
10 cents to dollar a pound. No
branch of agriculture shows any.
