er is not getting as good returns
as he should, largely by reason
of three things:
1st. He is not testing his cows
so as to know just what each one
is producing, and, as a result. he
is keeping many Improbable
cows. One half of his herd is
eating up the profits made by the
other half and he wonders why
he does not make money. BY
proper testing and wedding out,
his profits can easily be made
many times larger.
End. Many dairy farmer are
milking beef and scrub cows not
adapted 10 milk production,
whose milk yield is so low that
no money can be made with them
There r dairy bred COWS in
which the natural tendency to
give milk is so highly developed
that they will use all their sur
plus feed in milk production. By
the use of such cows, loss can be,
and frequently is turned into IA
handsome profit.
Sd. Many cows also are being
MIXED which have a good capac-
ity for milk production, but from
which no profit is realized, either
because the feed used is not a.
dapted to milk production, or not
enough of it is fed to produce a
good flow of milk. Without the
raw material (feed) from which
milk is mede, no COW can pro,
duce a good yield.
The purpose of this Dairy In
struction Car is to help the dairy
farmer overcome these three DIFF
ficulties. A very easy and sim
pie way of testing cows to know
which will yield a profit and
which will not will he fully dem

CLEANUP ONCE A
WEEK BEING URGED
Movement Inaugurated by
South Orange Village I'M
provement Assn.

Unlike the plans adopted in several
other municipalities for a cleanup
week. in the spring, q movement is
on foot in South Orange Village to
set aside one day in each week
throughout the spring season for a
general cleanup. The movement was
started at a meeting last night of

purpose of establishing q South Or
ange Garden League to work in con-
junction with the Garden League of

utive board of the Garden League Of

ried out is issued b ythe announce
ments made at the meeting.
1t is proposed to start with few
gardens, perhaps not more than ten
or twelve. The property in the rear
Of the 'Flatiron" building. in Vose
avenue has been placed at the dis
posal OF the league and fertilizer has
been promised free of charge. For
mer Village Trustee John F. McDon-
ough, an expert horticulturalist, has
offered to give such advice as may be
needed in the gardening project.
1t is proposed to erect fences around
the gardens and the LackaWanna
railroad has offered to supply dis
carded railroad ties to be used as
posts, and hewitt S. Barlow and
others have donated the necessary
wire for fencing purposes. 1t was de-
cided to provide a garden plot as large
as 40 feet by 100 feet for $3.50 a sea-
son, seeds and plants for family Of
five being furnished, the ground
ploughed and such advice on garden
ing as may be necessary to be in
cluded.
There are to be home memberships
and junior memberships as well, the
home members being required to pay
81 a season and the junior members
80 cents. To these plants and fruit
trees are to be furnished. Those
wishing to engage gardens will be
required to apply prior to April Is.
1t Is proposed to establish an office
in the centre Of the village, probably
at Health Commissioner j. Budd
Smiths place of business, In Sylvan
street. Plans for "clean up days. are
to be further discussed at q future
meeting.
