Unless the dairyman has had coHsid-
cradle experience In breeding, feeding
and caring for dairy cows, It IL not ad-
visable for him to scarf in heavily
with expensive, pure-bred animals. Ex-
perience teaches that a great many
who have been DESTROYS Of building up
excellent herds Of pure-bred dairy cat
tie have spent fortunes in securing
them, only to be disappointed. due to
the fact that they have not given them
the proper care and attention that
animals of such improved nature de-
mand. On the other hand, there have
been those who have started in with
small number Of pure-bred animals
who have made great success, and I
have in mind at this time one breeder
who is perhaps one Of the most popu-
lar breeders Of dairy cattle in the
United States, who boasts Of the fact
that he never bought but one cow. This
was a great many years ago. He
writes me that he sold in one sale
90 head Of cows, calves. ETC., which
brought him over $4,000. and since
that time he has sold six head Of

milk at each milking period and by
testing a days yield once q month to
determine the percentage Of butter
fat. It is a very simple matter for the
farmer to know at the end Of the year
how much milk and butter-fat each Of
his COWS have produced. During the
years gone by, It has been common
policy for the farmer to sell his good
cows and In many instances keep
those cows on his farm which were
actually not paying for the feed they
consumed. He did not do this because
II was his desire to do so. but he was
not aware that there was SO much diff
ference between the different indi-
viduals in his herd. Today the wise
farmer and bgee6er has had 1t proven
to him that the above method is the
only one by which he can accurately
determine the true producing value OF
his COWS. In the future the farmer
who IL paying close attention to his
business and deriving from 1t the
greatest Of profits will weigh and test
the milk produced by each Of his cows.

ones.
Thus, by continually breeding bet
ter animals and saving the best that
are produced, 1t is only a course OF q
short time until the dairy herd will be
one Of the greatest sources OF profit
on the farm. One Of the great objec'
lions to dairy farming In the west at

why the dairy herds in this country do
not produce more largely than they do
is because the arrangement Of the
farm Is not convenient for the busi-
ness. We are now undergoing the
transition period between grain and
stock farming to stock farming and
daIrying, and more or less time will be
consumed in rearranging the farms
and equipment to make them suitable
