six feet. depending upon the amount of
feed. Thus the crops are grazed off,
even when two or three feet high, with
out waste from tranping. This is the
Danes chief point of economy in sum-
mer feed Practically no grain is fed
while cows are on grass. A few dairy
men feed a little oil cake to their best
mixers.
Water is hauled twice a day to the
tethered COWS Many small dairymen
take the cows to the stable to be milk
ed three times day. They are stabbed
all winter, fed all the straw they will
eat, and on the average four pounds of
hay. 40 10 leo pounds of roots. and
about six pounds of grain per day, con-
sisting of oil cake, bran, barley and
oats.
An even flow of milk is required the
year around, and most of the cows
freshen from September to May.
900 Cow-TestIng Clubs.
The cooperative cow-testing associa-
tons begun in 1895, have proven so
helpful in wedding out the unprofita-
BILE COWS that they have rapidly increas-
ed to about 500 associations. A man
is employed by each association to
visit the farms and do the testing every
three weeks He weighs the milk and
keeps an accurate record of the feed
consumed, so the net profit per year of
each individual COW can be ascertain
ed. BY raising the future herd from
the best COWS the average production
has been greatly increased. The sys-
tenn of feed and milk records has been
a prime factor.
Two Copenhagen milk companies
handle over 100000 pounds of milk a
day. all of which is produced under
veterinary inspection and in accord
ance with strict rules laid down by
the company. Inspectors see that
every producer lives up to these rules,
which require cleanliness at every step.
AS soon as drawn, the milk must be
cooled and kept below so degrees

cause the bottling plant TO refuse the

pounds of ice must be provided for

There are LOO cooperative and 300
private creameries in Denmark. These
manufacture over 100000 pounds of
butter a year, 80 per cent of which is
exported to Great Britain. In summer
the milk is delivered twice a day and
in winter once.
Stringent rules are laid down in re-
gard to cooling the milk on the farm
and in not mixing mornings and
nights milk. All foods which may i'm
part an Objectionable flavor to the
milk are forbidden.
The creameries are compelled by
law TO pasteurize all skim milk by
heating to $50 degrees before it leaves
the creamery. to prevent the spread
of tuberculosis through this medium.

Two Secrets; ThOrOuEhness, study.
The secret of the Danish butter
makers success lies largely in their
habits of thoroughness. They first
construct a sanitary building and then
keep it clean by daily scrubbing. This
applies equally well TO all the machin-
cry and apparatus in the creamery.

On top of this denial of rumors that

In no other country does everything
give place to dairying as it does in
Denmark and Holland, and in no other
country in the world are the farmers
so prosperous and self-respecting.
There must be great opportunities
ahead of the American dairymen if
Denmark can profitably feed our grain
and maintain, through dairy exports,
its place as one of the thrifty nations
of the world. These are great state
ments by Professor WILDER ]. Fraser
and Royden E. Brand of the Illinois
college of agriculture, as their convic-
tions from a first-hand study of Euro
pean dairy farms last summer. Here
are some of their details:
The aim of the Danish farmer is to
keep the largest number of efficient
cows possible on a given area, COW to
219 acres or less. Enough young stock
is raised to keep the herd supplied
with cows.
Why the Land Grows Richer.
From their feeding of cake and meal
and the stall feeding of green crops,
an immense amount of manure of fine
quality is made, and with their careful
methods of outstanding the solids in Il
covered manure pit and the liquids in
a cistern, and applying in small guam
titles at frequent intervals during the
rotation, the producing power of their
land is increasing from year to year.
Both the Danish red COW and the black
and white COW of Jutland are distinct
lively dairy cows and good producers.
The development of the breeds to
such a high degree in 25 years has
been due to the farmers skill, intelli-
gence and common sense in selecting
and breeding for milk production alone.
The price of cows is $50 to $50 Only
the best heifers are raised, and with
the record of the dam and the quail
ties of the sire known, their selection
is comparatively simple The cows are
treated with kindness and every effort
is made to have them comfortable at
all times. On many farms the COWS
are regularly groomed-
The soiling crops used are rye. oats
and peas, oats and vetch. and clover
and grass. These are hauled to the
barn and fed green, or pastured off by
lettering the cows along the edge. In
some sections of small farms all the
land Is under cultivation.
Economy i'm TetherinE.
In the cool European countries the
soiling season of the crop is much
longer. The COWS are seldom turned
to pasture in Denmark. but tethered
