DAIRY cows FOR IDAHO.

The plan adopted ON the North
Side tract for bringing dairy COWS
to the state and selling them Ia the
farmers on time, "A plan that has
resulted in placing upwards of POO
head OF fine grade cattle on this

to bring $50, 900 worth "f cattle Ia
this section of the state which will
Ike sold Ia the farmers AT actual cost .

There is no question about South
country, a. il has been demonstatc'
beyond doubt that our alfalfa i
the best balanced ration that can b
fed to dairy COW, requiring yer.
little if any grain to bring about tn
