farmer and breeder has had it 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 is paying close attention to his
business and deriving from it the
greatest of profits will weigh and test
the milk produced by each of his COWS,
and those animals which are sold as
surplus Of the herd will be the in
ferior animals rather than the good
ones.
Thus, by continually breeding bet
ter animals and saving the best that
are produced, it is only course of a
short time until the dairy herd will be
one Of the greatest sources Of profit
on the farm. One of the great objec-
tons to dairy farming in the west at
this time as we'll as one of the reasons
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 bust
ness. We are now undergoing the
transition period between grain and

scendants from the one cow up to
1907 was between six and seven hun
dred. Besides this his letter reads that
he has paid for his farm and raised
his family from the products and Off
spring of this one COW, Golden Eye,
which COW cost him when she was
young $500. He still has on his farm
one COW that is granddaughter of
the old, original COW that is nearly
twenty years old and has produced for
him a dozen calves and, to use his ex-
preston, has been what would be
called a frst-class cow for eighteen
years."
Keep the Boy and Girl on the Farm.
One of the chief problems of the
farmer today is how to keep his sons
on the farm and interested in the bust
ness. l know Of no way more ad-
visabie than to give him a well-bred
dairy heifer or COW and allow him to
care for and raise the female offspring,
paying all expenses by the sale Of the
dairy products and male calves. 1t

2aztzas Experience Is Invaluable

Unless the dairyman has had consid-
cradle experience in breeding, feeding
and caring for dairy COWS. it is not ad-
v1sable for him to scarf in heavily
with expensive, pure-bred animals. Ex-
perlence 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 a
small number of pure-bred animals
who have made great success, and
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 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

"BICYCLE" HAS FOUR WHEELS
Improvement Recently Made in Mo-
torcycle Design, Bringing it
, Nearer to Automobile,

An improvement has been recently
made in the design of the motorcycle,
which brings it nearer to the automo-
bile class. It has carriage body and
seat which gives it more the appear
ance of an automobile, but the great
est innovation is the introduction of
auxiliary wheels, one on either side,
by which the vehicle is instantly
transformed into four-wheeler. This
change is desirable when the operator
is vending his way through crowded
streets where it is necessary to move
slowly or when it is necessary to come
to stop. The additional wheels are

odors and cost From the standpoint
Of convenience, the cows should face
feeding alley ways that are wide
enough for both grain and roughage to
be taken to them in the easiest and
quickest possible manner. AS a rule,
it is advisable to have two feed alley
ways with the COWS facing outward.
At the four ends of these two feeding
alley ways should be placed the grain

Milk Should Be Clean.
When we call to mind the
fact that milk is produced for the pur-

impressed with the fact that it should
be produced by sanitary methods and
always kept scrupulously clean and
free from dirt and dust particles
which are so frequently permitted to
gain access to the milk. II the barn

He is most useful in the garden,

In Bugtown, so they say:
And so it's very hard to bathe
Upon a summers day.
For instance, on a pitcher
OF lukewarm milk a crowd
OF bugs once spied this warning:

One bug, who was more daring
Than all the rest exclaimed:
TIL show you that I'm not afraid,
And make you all ashamed"
So he put on his bathing suit.
And took a little dive

Are even now alive.
