MOST PROFITABLE DAIRY FEEDS
J. w. Hart, Professor of Dairy
Husbandry.

Inquiry-What is the most economi-
cal and profitable dairy ration to use
in Georgia?
Feeding tests conducted at the
Georgia State Colltge of Agriculture
for a period of ninety three days, av-
erage weight Of COWS 500 pounds,
showed that COWS fed at the rate of
six pounds of cotton seed meal. thirty
three pounds of corn silage and two
and one half pounds of corn stover,
produced milk at an average cost of
six cents per gallon, leaving a wider
margin of profits than other food
tests. One group Of cattle fed five
pounds of cotton seed meal, thirty-one
pounds of corn silage, five pounds Of
dried beet pulp, two and a quarter
pounls corn slower, resulted in pro-
ducing about a pound more of milk
per day than the first mentioned, but
the cost per gallon was nearly nine
cents per gallon as against produc-
ing cost of six cents IN the first in
stance.
Another feeding test that proved
less profitable than the first mention
ed was the use of five pounds of cot
ton seed meal, thirty-three pounds of

CATTLE A PURE BRED SIRE
Andrew M. Soule, President.

A herd of thirty COWS yielded dairy
products that brought in 5000 A dur
ing 1912. These COWS were fed 100
tons of silage made from corn and
sorghum and valued at $3.50 per ton,
a total of 1926 for roughage of this
sort. Four tons of shredded corn
stover valued at $500 per ton, 3 tons
Of pea-vine hay valued at SIS a ton,
making total of $50 outlay, was fed
as dry roughage Twenty seven tons
of cotton seed meal at $24.0O per ton
were fed, amounting to $64S.O0 for
concentrates For six months in the
year the cattle were on pasture which
was figured at $3.50 per head per
month, total for pasture, $4,000

This herd has been largely built

lessons taught are that profitable

MRS. DOTSON MAKES
SETTLEMENT OF S636.O5

Des Moines, Dec 6.-Polk county's
claim of $1,147.27 against Mrs. Frank
W. Dodson, former county recorder,
was settled yesterday when Mrs. bod
sen entered into written agreement
to pay the county treasurer $635.O5.
The stipulation drawn by John ]. Hal
loran, attorney for the board, and A.
C. Parker, counsel for Mrs. Dodson.
was filed with recommendation that
the compromise be approved.
The settlement ends a difference be-
tween the former recorder and the
board of supervisors that started over
a year ago, when Mrs. Dodson left Of
fee. Women entered protest and call
ed an indignation meeting to condemn
the action of the board against Mrs.
Dodson and Mrs. Jennie Steele Huegie,
ex-county superintendent.
The county's claim of $1,147.27 was
composed of several items. Mrs.
Dodson paid two deputies, George A.
Hepburn and A. A. McCurnin $500 each
more for the fiscal year Of 1912 than
the law provided. 1t was also claimed
by the county that she paid $3.50 more
to other clerks in excess of the allow
ance made by the board of supervis-
ors. The remainder of the claim was
made up of other financial differences
in Mrs. Dodson's records with the
checks made by George Poorman.
Mrs. Dodson has agreed to return
5000 that she paid to her two deputies.
The law specifically provides that their
salary shall be 5000 per year. Mrs.
Dodson paid them $1,000. She will al
so pay $36.05 which the board claims
as interest on money which she did
not turn over at the end Of every three
The settlement will be completed
when the board Of supervisors approve
of the stipulation drawn by the at
torneys. The settlement, in the opinion
Of county officials, shows that Mrs.
Dodson was in good faith in her moth
