Education and farming

The Grange has always claimed
that a proper education did not
drive the boy from the farm as has
always been charged by the opposers
of scientific agriculture. The follow
ing from the Illinois College of
Agriculture should convince the most
skeptical that the claim is correct
and that the agricultural schools
are making actual farmers:
"Of one hundred and eighty -four
men graduated from the agricultural
course, University of Illinois, dur
ing 1908-19O9, 115 are dierctly en-
gagged in farming. Forty-eigh t
others are directly engaged in agri-
cultural work in connection with
college and experiment stations and
the United States Department of
Agriculture. In other words, prac-
tically 80 per cent Of the students
going out from the Illinois school
of agriculture are following strictly
agricultural pursuits. And of this
number 70 per cent are actually
tiIling the soil for a living"

Proa,otine he Dairy Industry

It is estimated by w. ]. Langdon,
president Washington State Dairy
mems association, that this state has
195. 900 dairy cows. The testing
association at Enumclaw shows that
fully so per cent of their cows fall
below the $50 margin of net profit
per COW a year. It is fair to assume
that the dairymen at Enumclaw rep
resent the average condition existing
throughout the state. Suppose half
of these cows (97, 500) could each
be brought up in net Yield an addlt-
ional $40 it would practically mean
s4.375,OOO greater revenue for
Washington dairymen, for the work
and extra cost of feed would figure
only a small per cent, if any, above
the value of additional by-products
which would naturally follow a
greater Yield of butter fat.
A good plan for improvement,
then, seems to be the organization
of testing associations in every dairy
community in order to weed out the
worthless cows. This work to be
followed up by dairymen forming
themselves into groups for the pur-
pose of buying pure bred dairy sires
of the breed which best suits their
purpose.
Inasmuch as the people Of Wash
ington are paying to other states up
wards of 100000 annually for
dairy products it is for the best inter
ests of all taxpayers that this COW
testing and Improvement should take
place as rapidly as possible. The ex-
pense of conducting cow testing
associations is 81 per COW, or for
the entire state would figure $685.
600. In Denmark, which country
now, leads the world in dairying, the
government provides for half of this
expense on condition that dairymen
in community first organize and
subscribe the other half. The plan
has been the means Of creating not
only marked increase in dairy
revenues. but it has become the
foundation of the most successful
efforts at cooperation in rural affairs
known in the world today.
Naturally this work of improve
ment will take several years, but the
dairymen's association will do well
to ask the legislature to set aside at
least $4,000 to be made available
for testing associations under proper
regulations. It is one of the best
investments the state could make,
for if left unaided it will take many
times as long before the revenues
from our diaries will exceed the re-
quirements of our home market.
The same principles in building up
dairy interests apply to our sister
states on the Pacific coast. When
the home market is supplied, we
have the great worlds market with
the highways of commerce extending
to our very doors.
