In starting herd of dairy cattle one
must consider two important factors:
the amount of capital available and
the purpose for which the herd Is to
used. The amount of capital available
will determine whether it is desirable
to purchase pure bred or grade COWS,
and the purpose for which their prod
net is to be used will determine to a
certain extent the breed
Few farmers feel like starting abb
ruptly into a pure bred herd OF dairy
cattle simply because 1t involves the
expenditure of too much capital.
When a large herd is being brought
together it is good plan to have at
least few pure breds OF the breed
selected. Most farmers, however, who
cont -mplate starting a herd OF dairy
cattle will probably start with grade
COWS. There should be no question as
to whether to use scrub or grade COWS.
Byeall means select grade cows OF the
particular breed desired. The coun-
try is full of scrub COWS OF no partic-
ular breeding and small producing ca
pacity. By grade COWS we usually
mean cows sired by pure bred sire
and out of a scrub or grade dam, max
ing them half pure blood. Pure bred
sires have been used in most sections
so that it is comparatively easy to get
fairly good grades of any breed.
The price OF good grade cows show
ing size and plenty of good milking
qualities has about doubled in the last
5 or 8 years, so that now such COWS
are selling for from 500 to s175. The
cause for this may be attributed to the
high price of beef and especially OF
veal with the attendant result that
fewer heller calves reach the milking
age than formerly. Furthermore the
demand for dairy COWS and dairy prod
ucts is increasing constantly. These
abnormally high prices for dairy cat
tie are not affecting the COW market
in this state so much, however. In
fact, good COWS can IN some sections
be purchased for very reasonable
prices. According TO the last census
there were about $4,000 COWS and heif'
ers in the state kept for milk and hav'
ing an average value of $25.57. This
seems very low and if we accept this
as accurate it means that the demand
for cows is not as great in this state
as in other states or that the average
quality is much lower. The average
value of all Dairy COWS in the United
States for 1909 was about S34.24, or al
most SO more than fer West Virginia
The demand for dairy products is
very good, however. If the farmers
of this state would take advantage OF
the opportunities offered they could
keep millions of dollars in this state
which now go out in payment for milk
cream, butter and cheese which must
be brought in from neighsoring states
Farmers are beginning to see the op
portunities, and the demand for good
dairy COWS will grow. 1t will pay well
TO start a good herd at this time and
keep Improving it by breeding.
The breed as stated will depend on
the purpose for which the product If
