ARE YOUR cows EFFICIENT
Milk Scales and eabcoek Tester Eo'
sential in Conducting Successful
Dairy-Diseard Boarders.

Putting the efficiency test to cows
with the milk scales and the Bah
cock tester is one of the essentials
OF conducting a successful dairy. When
feed is high in price farmer cannot
afford to have boarders in his dairy
barn who eat up more in feed than
their milk yield is worth. The Bab-
cock test will show these delinquent
cows in their true light, and the milk
scales will put the clincher on the
argument. Testing cows will give
some farmers a big surprise. Some
time the COW that looks like the poor
est creature In the lot Is the best
butterfat producer.
Cow testing associations among
dairymen afford the most economical
use of the Babcock tester and the
scales.

Difficult to Properly Care for Dairy
Products In Summer Without

During the hot weather it is almost
impossible to care for dairy products
on the farm without a suitable milk
house.. o. E. Reed of the Kansas Ag-
ricultural college offers the following:
Milk must be produced under sani-
tary conditions, and to do this the milk
house should be either separate from
the dairy barn or arranged in such
way that odors from the barn do not
get to 1t.
A 10 by 12-foot milk house is a good
size for the average farm. 1t should
be built with a cement floor and have
drain at the center to carry away
the waste. The equipment should con-

DAIRY NOTES

Regularity in feeding pays.

Regularly In IeeuluB pays.
The more the study. the greater the
success in dairying.
The difference is in the COW, rather
than the feed or mixer or the churn.
The farm separator Is too good
stepmother for the calf to get along
without.
The more man appreciates the
maternity of the dairy COW the better
dairyman he is.
Immediately after milking, strain
the milk from the pail through three
thicknesses OF cheese cloth.
Some COWS not only do not maks
a profit but are kept at loss, al
they do not give enough milk to pay
for their feed.
II is not hard for a dairy farmer
to sleep we'll on cold winter nights
when he has q silo full OF corn and Q
