clear profit of only $5.45 was realized
on each.
1t cost $1,295.35 to care for and
feed the whole herd during one years
time. This figure includes all poss.

on investment, depreciation in the
value of the herd, cost of pasture and
all other feeds and taxes. Forty
nine fat calves were sold for $1,506.5j:
Is good heifer calves were kept on the
farm for future breeding purposes and
they were valued at only SIS each.
When the value of these Is calves,
1925, is added to the sum received for
the fat calves, the total income of the
herd is raised to $1,73155. A total
profit of $436.19 was consequently reat-
lied on the whole herd of 80 COWS.
These results are, of course, en-
