cows even with this years hay prices.
We speak Of those dairymeD who have,
through either purchasing outright or
through building up their herds, ac
CURED stock that will not only pay out
on this years hay prices, but also make
an annual profit besides the fertilizer.
For such man to dispose Of his stock
would be poor business policy, for in
a years time he would not only be
loser on the net income, but would
also lose money in selling and buying
just as the former man with poor
stock, and whit is worse, it would
perhaps take some time to get together
another herd OF good producers.
Some may doubt that there are
herds in the state which are making
their owners money this year, consid-
erins the prices that alfalfa would
bring. In fact, we have often heard
that thought expressed, but a little

WHAT COWS TO SELL.

| j. c LOOmiS, in Pacific Rural Press
Whether to keep The dairy stock and
sell the hay through the cream
cneck, or whether to sell the hay 70
buyers and dispose Of the stock. is one
OF the many perpleNng problems
confronting alfalfa growers this year
! On the one side. hay buyers are Of
fPred good prices and dairy cattle have
| t@en getting cheaper as the year wears
! on. thereby causing the investment in
stock 10 shrink, SO to speak On the
other side are several good reasons
for not selling the stock. the main ones
being that hay cannot shay at present
prices in normal rainfall years, and
when the man who sells now will be
out Of money when he buys back
other stock: and last, hut by no means
least. every head Of stock on a place
j. a direct benefit to the soil, in the
way Of fertilizer.
As there are two sides to the selling
question. 50 there are two classes Of
Gairymen, one who should sell and one
who should hold.
As everyone familiar with the states
dairy industry knows, the majority Of
our herds can stand a good deal of
CUllin", and it is almost invariably the
that I&-b &c found ~
has not made money out Of cows and
hogs in the past. poor stock was the
cause. That the average herd has too
many "star bOarders" may be seen
from the reports Of every testing as
sociation in the state AS these asso-
cations are mostly composed Of pro-
gressive dairymen, the stock should be
the cream Of their community, but
although we have talked with great
many members Of the different asso-
Citations, we have yet to find the men,
Der who did not find one or more COWS
ertered that had actually cost more to
maintain than they produced For this
reason it seems logical to state that
great many dairymen had better
dispose Of their stock this year, or at
least do some strenuous culIing, and
sell their hay, because if ones herd
will not pay well with cheap hay, such
as we have had in past years, there is
very little hope for them with hay at
present prices.
While it is impossible to predict
with any certainty what next year will
bring forth in the way Of hay and cat
the prices, those who have studied the
question seem to agree that high class
dairy cows will always produce enough
tn hold their valuation up to its pres
ent level, but that alfalfa cannot hold
its high level Of this year, due to the
large acreage which is yearly being
added to. Therefore. it seems that
while it may be good business to sell
parts or all Of those herds which are
Improbable, the point should not be
lost sight Of that cows will he COWS
when hay prices drop. Another thing
which the present seller should re-
member when buying next time. is that
if he will use more care in the selec-
ton Of his next herd it will not be nee
essary to sell out the next dry season
that comes along.
As stated before, there is one class
Of dairymen who are not selling and
who are able to make money through

In accordance to suggestion OF
Dr. w. c. Clarke. city physician,
one well known uptown citizen will
next spring, convert the city lots
owned by him, into field of al
falfa. instead of allowing it to con
tinue as weed patch.
There are many other citizens who
have vacant lots in various parts of
the city that might just as we'll be
converted into a profitable alfalfa
yield instead of harboring the dis
ease breeding weeds Or. Clarke fig
ures. and he will try and induce as
many as will to take up his idea.
There are several citizens who
have followed such a plan, among
them being p. T, Langan and j. L.
Harris. Mr.. Langan in his corner
lots on Twenty-second and Hol-
brook has had the ground in alfalfa
for several years and it furnishes
him quite quantity of feed. Mr.,
Harris only recently planted his va.
