grade Jersey COW was purchased
in the vicinity of Athens at cost of
$35. AS five year old the cost of
feed, including pasturage, was $4O22.
She produced 4,6331 pounds of milk.
The value of milk was reckoned at
80 cents per gallon, and it amounted
to $165.79. This is a conservative
value to place on it since milk retails
in most Georgia towns at 40 cents
per gallon. This leaves a difference
of $125Sl between the value of milk
and the cost of feed The average fat
test was IL per cent, which would
have made 243.23 pounds of SIS per
cent. butter. At 80 cents a pound it
would have sold for $72.97, or $32.75
more than the cost of feed. On a but
ter basis the value OF the manure and
the skim milk would have fully paid
the labor bill.
This grade Jersey COW was bred to
a registered Holstein bull. The result
ing heifer freshened as a two year old.
She had inherited the character. size
and greater feed capacity from her
Holstein sire. During the first year as
a two year old heifer she consumed

MOVE TO LET PEOPLE
VOTE ON GAS PLANT
City Attorney Instructed Tc
Prepare Bill For Gas Bond
Issue.

If the people of Marietta want a
gas plant they will no doubt have
an opportunity OF saying whether it
shall be municipality owned or not
as the City Council at it's last regu-
lar meeting passed a resolution in
structing the City Attorney to draw
up bill providing for an election
to pass on the matter.
The bill as proposed in the resola-
ton will provide for bond issue
of thirty thousand dollars, ''or SC
much thereof as may be necessary
to install, operate and maintain the
proposed plant.
There is nothing else that Mariet-
ia needs so badly as gas plant (the
kind that will burn, of course) and
the proper way to go about it Is to
let the people come out at the ballot
box and express their opinion and
desires in the matter.
A bill is also expected to pass the
Legislature requiring a popular vote
on any franchises for gas or other
public service franchises that may be
brought before the City Council in
the future.

$5777 worth of feed. She produced
6,742.4 pounds of milk The value OF
this milk at 80 cents per gallon was
$235,20. The difference between the
value of milk and cost of feed was
$177.43 as compared with $125.S1 in
the case of her five year old dam Tho
average fat test on the heifer was
Al per cent. This would have pro
duced 351.24 pounds of IS per cent
butter, which valued at 80 cents rel,
pound would have amounted tc
$105.37. This would leave a difference
of $4760 between the cost of feed and
value of butter.
The two year old heifer sired by a
registered bull consumed more feed
than her five year old dam to the
amount of $1755. However, she pro
.duced $69.41 more of milk in the same
length oftime, and $14.65 more of but
ter.
We do not recommend the indiscri-
inmate crossing Of breeds, but it is
definitely known that where an in
crease in the flow of milk is desired it
can be brought about by breeding ma
tive and grade dairy COWS to we'll bred
Holstein bulls.
