ATTENTION GIVEN TO COWS
Astonishing Hcw Many 0alryn1en Are
Keeping EoviEes instead Of Ani-
mails Keeping Them.

The man who is making money In
dairying is the man who thinks. II is
astonishing how many men are keep
inS cows instead OF cows keeping
them, because the men do not think.
a thinking man will net keep cows
that do not pay a profit on the feed
they consume. There is no way 10
determine the value of the individual
COWS except by keeping an account
OF the cost of feed and the value Of
the products of each COW.
This method often leads to incrcas-
ing The profits by more judicious
feeding and more efficient milking. or
IN other words it requires giving each
COW individual attention.
Some dairymen may think that this
work requires too much time. but
after trying it cut they are usually
surprised TO find how little time It
really takes to keep an accurate rec
ord of the business. Every da;ryman
should be business man.
