Cow Testing

One hundred and sixty-three COOP
erative COW testing associations were
in operation last year in the United
States. The main purpose of these
associations is to enable its menu
bers to hire tester to keep the rec
ords which in practice it is almost
impossible for the farmer to keep
for himself
The weekly news letter of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture has the following to say of
these associations:
THAT a cow-testing association
actually does pay has been proved
beyond all doubt. There are seven
herds that have remained continu-
ously in the Michigan association
ever since il was formed, in 1905.
In 1906 they included SO cows, and
in 1918, 50 COWS. In 1906 the av-
erage yield for each COW was $685.
pounds of milk and 231.1 pounds OF
butter fat; in 1913 it was 6,123.4
of milk and 284.7 pounds of fat
In the meantime prices of both feed
and dairy products had risen. The
profit, however, to the dairymen in
the association rose as well. FOi
each COW it was, in 1906, $22.23
and in 1913 it was $51.O8, or an in.
crease of $2S.85. 1t certainly paid
these da,rymen, therefore, to EN-
ploy tester even if it cost them
$3.50 year for each cow"

Memorial Day

Fifty years of blessed peace have
slipped by since the close of the
great War Between the States, the
terrible conflict which will be
brought fresh to memory again May
80. Fifty full years of concord. All,
who does not pray on this Memorial
Day of all others that the war of y
half century ago marked the last
great struggle in which this nation
will engage?
Sargent Prentiss, in an address in
New Orleans Dec. %, 1S45, forecasts
the indestructibility of the Union.
His words make an ideal sermon
for Memorial Day.
"The Union cannot be dissolved
declared Mr.. Prentiss. Its fortunes
are too brilliant to be married, It's
destinies too powerful to be resist
ed. Here will be their greatest tri-
umph, their most mighty develop
ment. And when, "a century hence
this Crescent City shall have filled
her golden horns; when within her
broad armed port shall be gathered
the products of the industry of a
hundred millions of freemen, when
galleries of art and halls of learning
shall have made classic this mart OF
trade, then may the sons of the
pilgrims, still wandering from the
bleak hills of the north, stand upon
the banks of the great river and ex-
claim with mingled pride and won
der: 'Lo, this is our country! When
did the world ever witness so rich
and magnificent city, so great and
glorious a republic?'"
