break for the home ranch and
winter quarters. There isn't one
half as many cattle in these parts
as there used to be, mores the
pity, and it is said that the
creamery will be obliged to close
within few weeks unless receipts
of cream soon increase. Right
now it is hardly making enough
butter to supply the local demand
and many families have to depend
on the ranch product for their
table. E. L. Black burn, the present
butter-maker, ascribes the trouble
to unwillingness of farmers to milk
and care for the cream. A good
profit for all concerned awaits
a proper combination of interests.
Cooperation of all farmers in the
district, however, is required in
order that the creamery output
may be increased and maintained.

While winter is the most un-
profitable time of year for the
eastern dairymen it is the harvest
for the western farmers. They
have more time to spare, the pest
of flies has vanished and well
balanced and cheap feed is pro-
duced in wheat pasture and alfalfa
hay. The wheat if it has made an
average growth, is better for being
pastured and on it the COWS do as
well as on the best June grass
because there are no insect pests.
The eastern man lacks both alfalfa
and wheat pasture and is at dis
advantage compared with his west
ern competitor. Butter has been
jumping in price in the Denver
market of late and to-day it stands
at forty cents. Naturally the
dairymen who have COWS that have
freshened at just the right time
and who have plenty of alfalfa,
roots or some other milk producing
stimulant should wear the smile
that does not come off. The wise
dairyman is the man who produces
milk when the other fellows COWS
are not working-Field and Farm.
