FACTS AND FIGURES
ON IDAHO LAND

x issue of The Tribune, we noticed X
\ what Mr.. Hannah had done with 4
= sheep on one acre of land. Now X
= it gives us great pleasure to slip X
x one over" on Mr. Hannah with a X
x couple of cows-not dual-purpose 4
4 cows, but cows of strictly dairy X
X type. These two particular cows X
X were shipped in by the Caldwell X
< Dairy association and bought by X
x us in the fall OF 1909. In 1910 we X
x began testing and keeping a daily 4
x record of their milk, hence our K
x figures may be easily verified. x
< Each COW was fed l2OOfb of 4
X hay per month for seven months, X
K the 1910 crop being figured at 81 X
X per ton and the 1911 crop at S. 4
x per ton. The remaining FIVE \
X months of the year the cows \
X were on pasture at $3.50 per 4
\ month. Both cows, Spot and \
x Rose, gave us heifer calves from \
X registered sires and this increase \
4 we figure at $4,000 per head since \
X this price would not induce US to !
x part with them. !
x Spot, a high grade Holstein. !
X was bred to freshen in February 4
\ and Rose, a grade Guernsey. was !
X bred to freshen in March.

X Allowing a yield of only S tons 1
X per acre, it required approximate

X to produce the hay that was con-
X sumed which gives a profit of

X Question: What are Spot and
