DAIRY IMPROVEMENT
STATE DAIRYMEN,s ASSOCIATION
 MAY RE FORMED.
Enthusiasfle Instisufe ct Thsrsby DIs- eusSen Necessity of such ap Organisation and Ixinslred
 Towien zt

Thofsby, Jan. a. A.tSpecial. )--At the farmers institutue, held here today, the question of organizing "a State dairymen's association was enfRusi- asticalIy discussed. It is believed that emphatic. attitude taken. by. those pres ent regarding the necessity Of such an organization, will lead to, the forma- tion of one at an early date.
 This meeting was a gathering of the dairymen along the Louisville and Nashville Railroad from Montgomery to Birmingharn, for the purpose of dis- cussing the new line of farming.
 It was held in the chapel of Thorsby Institute. and. was widely attended. K A better dairy herd. a better and grown feed for the dairy COW and pork production in connection with dairy ing. were among the other discussions.
 An unusual feature of this Institute is the fact that it was organized, ad- vertised and held by theN dRiryrnen themselves. This movement is an out growth of the effective dairy field work which has recently been insti- tuted in this State by the Animal Illus bandry Department of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute in co-operation with the dairy division of the National Department of sAgricuitures Washing ton. D. c.
 Mir. c. G. farrell, . leading citizen and successful dairyman of Thorsby. presided and introduced the speakers.
 The importance of heading the herd with pure-bred dire and wedding out the poor. and unprofltable individual cows. were facts forcibly brought be. fore the audiencefby Mir. A. K. Risser, Washington. D. O!
 How to handle the wide range of forage crops adapted to Alabama con- ditions so as to have green feed for nearly every month in the year, and how to have permanent green pas- ture, were vital questions placed be- fore the dairymen by Professor L. N. Duncan Of Auburn.
 MT. ]. M. Barrett of Thorsby show ed by figures gathered from experience the most economical ration for profit- able milk production.
 Professor Dan T. Gray of Auburn demonstrated by.charts and figures that pork could be produced at about cents per pound from skinned milk and other by-produets of the dairy when supplemented by certain grazing crops.
 The daily fieId investigation work was full explained by Mir. s. D. Dow, Washington, D. c.
 Producing and marketing pure clean products was discussed in very prac- tical and suggestive way by MT. W. G. Estes, a leading dairyman of Bir- mingham.

The conditions there, are subjects for all districts to be in- terested In and the policy for tho anr thracite fields, on and after April 1, when our present contract or award expires. should be reviewed and dIs-i cussed by this convention.
 If we get a conference with the an thracite operators and can secure al all we'll and good Tn event of any other development requiring the united support of this organization, then the delegates to this convention should know the situation so as to be able to report itzfntelligently to their constituency at home"
