NEGLEcTING TO COLLECT s366,ooo

Last weeks issue of this paper
published an incOnspicuous item re-
garding a man who with the aid of the
official tester of a COW testing asso-
citation, sold Is per cent of his cows,
changed the ration of the rest and in
creased his butter production 40 per
cent. This was brought about by
selling the non productive cows in his
herd and changing the feed of the
rest to conform with scientific prlncl-
pies of feeding the best possible milk
producing foods and rations. This is
an actual fact as told by F. Warner
Wigein, one of Vermont's successful
farmers.
For example, Mr.. Farmer, it means
that if you keep dairy of ~ cows
that are making "a pounds of butter a
day, Zone and one-fourth pounds
each) you could sell three cows and
then make 33B pounds of butter per
day, practically two pounds each).
Sounds rather fairy tale like don't it.
But we understand Mr.. Wiggln
vouches for the statement. Besides
getting almost 10 pounds more butter
day, this man who originally was
feeding 20 COWS, is only feeding II,
quite a saving.
There are unquestionably scores of
farmers in Orleans county who could
effect big saving in feed bills and
produce more butter if they would
pursue the same course in their own
diaries. They might turn their hard
laSors for a bare existence into farm
ing that would produce a bank &C.
count. There is absolutely no ques-
tion about the fact that there are
many COWS that scarcely produce but
ter fat enough to pay for the feed
they eat. They cannot be positively
distinguished from the money makers
with the naked eye. The milk must
be tested and weighed. Figures
don't lie. You will then know the
money maker from the free boarder.
But this takes little effort and costs

Dairy testing associations are doing
their work. Orleans county has a
few associations, the Monitor under
stands, and it would be pleased to
publish the results Of the work in this
association and invites its members
to give US such facts as will interest
other dairymen. But COW testing
association is not necessary to find
out the profitable cows in herd A
test Of the milk of each COW at

you the most money.

Help yourself to this money. It's

get it but yourself.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.
Lewis Recognized as the Man.

Ex-Gov. G. H Prouty has declared
that he does not care to serve as
delegate to the republican national
convention because he believes the
coming campaign will be strenuous
one and the men who nominate a
candidate for the presidency should
give of their time and service to
carry their man on to victory, and
the condition of his health is such
he does not care to assume quite so
rigorous task. Everyone will
wish the ex-governor continued i'm
provement in health SO he will soon
be in fighting trim again.
His withdrawal as candidate
leaves the home field clear for Hon.
J. l.. Lewis of North Troy and Yer
monters can support him with assur-
! ance that he will return to Vermont
ready to put up a vigorous fight for
the republican nominee. He is an
effective worker too and will aid Yer

Winter Sports in Vermont.

The extent to which winter sports
are being revived in the larger COM
munities of Vermont is very encourage
ing, not alone from the standpoint of
better health for the people ,but from
the standpoint of attractiveness of
Vermont to people in the outside
states. Vermont has been held up as
state which goes into tight winter
quarters for six months in the year
for so long time that our friend
are half inclined to believe it; and
they have shivered when they thought
of coming among Us in any month
except the balmy months in summer.
Let them get the idea knocked out
of their heads and let it be substi-
tuted by the conviction that Vermont
| is just as good in winter as in sum-
mer; and then the vacationist bust
ness will boom. Therefore the more
our people go into toboganning, snow
shoeing, skating, coasting pleasures,
the greater will be the magnet for
those jewellers in the cities who do
not see snow except as it swirls
through the air and is carted off as
soon as it falls. The winter sport
clubs in Burlington and other places
will do a good part in advertising
these attractions of Vermont win
