GOOD OF cow TESTING CLUB
Many UnseientIhe Dalrymen Relying
on His Eyes and Own Judgment
Rather Than Record.

There are too many COWS in herds
Of the American farmer that do not
pay for their own keep, much less
yielding a profit, but the unscientitc
dairyman who relies alone on his eyes
and own judgment rather than on rec
ords Of yield and income, keeps on
until he has his eyes opened by the
progress Of his neighbor, who may
have joined q, cow-testing association.
AS illustrative Of the difference 10
value of the average cows in herd,
may be cited the record Of the work
of cow-testing associations in opera
ton in the state Of Iowa since 1909
The best COW of the 6SS tested re-
turned a profit Of ;10677. while the
poorest COW showed loss Of 1894
The average profit from the best COW
in each Of the l6 herds tested was
$500. and from the poorest COW in
each herd. $l6.6S. From the data pre-
scented it has been estimated that ten
years In a cow-testing association
ought to bring all the COWS up to near
ly 300 pounds Of butter-fat per year.

Spring pasture has . stimulating Of.

and the amount Of milk and butter fat

plan to supplement early spring pas

spring pasture season have to be made
up later, and usually at the expense OF
production and the interests Of the
owner. .t
