DAIRY POINTERS

The great advantage the dairy
COW gives the average farmer is the
opportunity to market through her
at high prices large quantities of
bulky farm products that have a slow
sale or are not salable. The farmers
chief interest and most of his cash
staple crops, like corn, wheat or cot
ton. To secure the largest yield of
any of these crops, to reduce the
cost of production and to employ his
teams and implements to the most
profitable extent through the year, he
is obliged to raise a large acreage of
leguminous crops like alfalfa and the
clovers. Forage crops can be raised
at little cost either as second crops,
where poor stands of staple crops
have been secured and for fields that
have to be planted late. These fer
tilizing and forage crops can be mar
keted at a good profit through dairy
cows and another profit be secured
from the manure
The dairy cow is the salvation OF
the family with little money who
goes to a new county. The settler
can set up his stove and bed in the
new home and while his wife is get.
ting supper, he can milk the cows
and separate the cream with a hane
separator. The next morning he car
milk the COWS and separate the cream
while his wife is getting the break
fast that morning he can sell tn
cream from two milkings, starting {
weekly cash income within "a hours
of his arrival in the new home. Nativ,
grasses will feed the cows through
the summer and forage crops tina
never fail in this section will keep tn
COWS furnishing a steady income
through the winter. Every famil!
who goes to Montana to build a home
should take some good dairy cow
with them.
