Americancity markets as towhat
constitutes fine flavor in butter

he VALUE OF A DAIRY
COW.

The statement has been made
lat the average dairy man knows
1ore about the subject of bacter-
fology than he does about select
ling a dairy COW. This is due to
the fact that creamerymen have
religiously insisted on compelling
farmers to avoid allowing their
milk to become conta minated
from any source whatever. In
order to emphasizethis ithas been
necessary tor the creameryman
to explain in detail the character
istics of the organisms which de-
velop injurious fiavors in the
milk. The care that is now taxi
en- in the cleaning of milk uten-
sis indicate that the dairy man is
aware Of the fact that organisms
left in poorly washed vessels
multiply at an exceedingly rapid
rate when they are allowed a
milk culture to work in. OF
course it cannot be said that the
average dairymen has attained
perfection along these lines, al
though there is no denying the
the fact that he is quite well post
ed on these matters.
1t is now high time, however,
that more time was given to the
selection of the dairy COW. There
is quite a general belief that
dairy COW is worth about $40 or
$50, and so long as an animal is
young there is bltlittle allowance
made for her real ability to pro.
duce milk at a profit. 1t is sell
dom realized that many cows are
dear as gift; that they are kept
at an annual loss when the cost
of their feed is set over against
value OF their product. 1t is
therefore apparent that the value
OF GARY COW depends entirely
upon her ability to produce but
ter fat. Some are able TO make
as high as 35C or even 400 pounds
of butter in a year, while on the
other hand there are cows that
could not be made to produce $50
pounds of butter fat even with
the best offeed:ng and treatment.
The latter therefore has no value
whatever as "a dairy animal, and
her selling price can only be
based on wnat she would bring
on the market as Gamer. But
a COW that will produce 300 or 400
pounds of butter during one year
would be a bargain at 500. Such
an animal would pay 40 per cent.
on the first cost plus the value of
her feed every year.
There is the typicaldairy from
which one may be guided by in
purchasing dairy animal, but
even this is sometimes deceiving.
Sometimes the animal witha typ
ical beef form turns out to have
wonderful ability in the produc.
ton of milk. After all, the milk
pail and the Babcock test!furnish
the most accurate means of de-
termining the real value of the
dairy animal.

When Corn Should he PlOw-
ed Deep

Much of the experimental data
that accumulated during recent
years on the subject of corn cul-
tivation has tended to conclusivelp
prove that shallow blowing is fol-
lowed b. better results than is
deep blowing. While this is true
in general way it must bus un-
derstood that under no conditions
is it good policy 10 pillow corn
deeply. There are many in
stances this year where deep
plow,ng will give much more sat-
isfactory results than will shall
low. The exceedingly heavy
rains that have fallen in some
districts have not only kept the
soil in a saturated condition until
weeds made a strong growth,
but have compacted the soil in
such way as to leave It in
baked condition. Where the
heavy rains fell before corn plant
ing it frequedtly necessitated the
complete preparation of the soil
over again. and in some cases this
has benn performed as many as
three times. Our attention has
been called to instances where
The Southern farm gazette. (Starkville, Miss.) 1895-1909, 1902-07-15

it was necessary TO pillow the soil
twice in order to prepare a pop
err seed bed.
Where compaction of the s,il
has taken place after corn has
been planted and raintalls have
been SO frequent as TO prevent
blowing at the proper intervals
it may be absolutely essential to
plow or cultivate much deeper
than would be suggested by cor
rect theory OF corn cultivation.
This may be neces sary even
after corn has attained consider

conditions we would not hes itate
to lay corn by after blowing it to
