THE HeIfER CALF.

The western farmer is coming grad
ually to SEQ the benefit to himself in
dairyine. Dairy herds were the only
department Of the cattle industry that
did not show decrease in 1910 While
other than dairy cattle in 1909 showed
Q decrease Of 100000. the dairy herds
made q gain Of $1,000 members and it
80 to be assumed that this gain was
made mainly in the middle west.
The time Is coming when heifer
CALI will not be despised on Iowa farms.
It will take Iowa some further years
Of losing good money by distaste of the
dairy and objection to milking job
on the part of hired men before she
finds her quickest, surest and biggest
money in the heifer calves. But not
many years. Milk trains advertised to
leave points in Wright and Franklin
counties on time, milk trains already
established In southern Iowa are early
indications Of condition soon to be-
come genera all over Iowa.
The high priced farm must consider
the heifer calf. The stone long rejected
Is due to become one Of the chief COM
ers OF Iowa prosperity.
