GET RID OF B0ARDERS.
Dairy Cows That Do Not Pay For Their
Keep Should Be Banished.

Dairy Cows That Do Not Pay For Their
Keep Should Be Banished.
"At least one-eighth of the dairy
herds in New York may return an an
nual net loss to their owners" This
is the conclusion of investigators of
Cornell Agricultural college from the
figures secured in Jefferson county, n.
Y. Year long records were obtained
for fifty-three dairy herds in that coun-
ty. Facts were gathered about the
quantity and quality of milk and but
ter fat produced, the costs OF feed and
equipment, the profit or losses and
various other items.
While seven of the fifty-three herds
were kept at an aggregate loss of more
than 81 300, or an average loss of $3.50
apiece, the average profit on all herds
was 81 cents on the hundred pounds
of milk, and the average net profit on
each cow in a year was $20.39. These
figures indicate that the farmer may
make under favorable conditions lit
less than two-thirds of a cent on a
quart of milk.
The principal cause Of loss in dairy
ing is the keeping Of cows which do
not pay for the food they eat. They
have come to be known as lady board
ers and serve their most profitable
use, according to the dairy experts,
when converted into meat and hides.
The one way to insure their elimina-
ton from the herd. experts say. is to
determine the yield Of each COW by
weight of milk and by the use of the
Babcock test for the butter fat con-
tent. The formation of COW testing as
sociations is urged upon dairy farmers
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1915-08-04

right down to business; but, being on
small farm and seeing the folly of
wearing myself out and not accom-
plishing anything but just raising plain
COWS that are sold at all farm sales
with the claim that they will give six
to eight gallons of milk daily. and
which, when put over the scales, tell
far different story, decided to make
a change. My first real change was
when l bought a pure bred dairy bull
calf to cross on those common cows.
The first cross was great. When those
grade heifers came fresh they gave
more than their dams and tested bet
ter. In the meantime / bought pure
bred heifer. and after that the natural
thing Representatives. grades must go
as fast as registered stock could be
added.
My experience is in favor of pure
bredS for the reason that ten or twelve
good cows should easily make man
on a small farm $1,000, counting but
ter fat and increase of calves at an
average of $50 each, which is not too
high, for / sell them at one month old
for that, the bull calves.
1t is not best for a man that has no
experience to buy too heavily of regis
tered stock. The best way is to select
your favOrite breed-HOlsteins, Ayr
shires, Guernseys or Jerseys: they are
all gOod-and place at the head Of the
herd a good registered bull, as good as
circumstances will permit. for the bull
is more than half the herd. as his in
fluence is on your future COWS in your
entire herd.

RAISING GEESE is
EASY AND PROFITABLE

For the keeping Of geese little If any
special equipment is needed. They sell
dom seek the shelter of buildings,
spending virtually all of the time in
the open, regardless Of cold or storm.
OF course it is always well to provide
some inexpensive place to which the
birds may go if they wish, but these
coops need not be large in size and
may be most simply and roughly con-
structed.
A liberal sized pasture must be sup
piled. One containing a stream, pond
or marshy land is best, though suft1-
Gent water to permit swimming place
is not absolutely required.
If it is desired that the geese be
kept confined to a certain tract Of land
this may be inclOsed with low fence
Of wire netting. However, free range is
best and is usually given where condi-
tons permit.
Goslings may be successfully hatch
ed in incubatOrs and reared in brood
ers, but the natural method is used al
most exclusively.
Give the goslings reasonable protec-
ton and a plat Of tender grass and
they will thrive without much atten-
ton. 1t is possible to grow them on
no other feed than that found on a
good range, but this is not satisfac-
tory plan. They develop slowly and
fail to reach satisfactory weight.
Goslings do not require the services
of a French chef. A mash mixture Of
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1915-08-04

two-thirdS wheat bran and One-third
cornmeal, with little beef scrap add
ed after the third day, is about all they
require. Feed the moist mash three
times daily and watch them grow.
Fresh water in abundance is posi-
lively required, and green feed must
be given if the supply Of grass is limit
ed. Provide plenty Of shade and pro-
lection against sudden, chilling show
ers.
In from three to four months the
youngsters will have reached market
size For two or three weeks before
killing them induce them to eat heavi-
", increasing the cOrnmeal in the mash
until it comprises twO-thirds Of the
mixture.
Market gosIings are killed by bleed
ing in the mouth and striking on the
head with a short club. They are pick
ed clean, excepting the first joint of
the wings and the upper half Of the
neck
Especial care must be used 30 insure
thorough cooling before shipping.
Any large city furnishes a good mar
ket. During the summer months hotels
at summer resorts are especially good
customers.

I had a million dollars once.

The Ayrshire breed of dairy cattle
has attained great popularity in
Anne lea in recent years because of
the beauty of the cow, her ability
to thrive and grow fat on poor,
rough pastures and feed and be-
cause of the fact that she produces
large quantities Of milk. The first
Ayrshire COW to produce over 10000
pounds of milk in a year was Jean
Armour, which made 20,174 pounds
of milk and TAT pounds Of butter
fat. The COW pictured is an Ayr
