of the value of a bull is the character
of his offspring. and this Is the safest
and surest guide. Many aged bulls
with good records and splendid on
spring are sold at bargain prices to
avoid inbreeding. and afford an excel
lent opportunity to the man who
wishes a good bull at moderate cost.
Strength and virility must go with
good ancestry to make a good sire.
The grade sire should have no place
in the dairy herd.
Select Cows on Their Records.
Cows may be selected according to
type and apparently by men who are
good judges, but the only safe and sure
basis for selection is the annual milk
record.
The keeping of milk records in all
parts of the country and in all classes
and kinds of herds has shown:
/. That some herds make large an
nual profits while others make none.
2. That in the best herds there are
usually some Improbable cows, and
very many such in the poorer herds.
3. That without records the owners
of the herds could not tell with any de-
gree of accuracy Which cows were pay
ing profitably and which were not.
! 4. That many dairymen would have
| made a greater yearly profit had they
sent their herd to the butcher at the
beginning of the year. thus saving half
their feed and labor expenses and get
ting all the profit from their best cows.
| A fact worth noting is that several
worlds record cows of different breeds,
now worth thousands Of dollars each,

were sold to their present owners for
small sums by men who had not taken
the trouble to find out what kind of
cows they were keeping.
Essential to Keep Records.
1t is difficult, therefore, to see how a
dairyman can afford to run the risk
of keeping Improbable cows by refus-
ing to keep records. A merchant who
could not take time to keep books
would soon go bankrupt; and business
methods must be the rule on the dairy
farm fla profitable business Is TO be
built up. Even if it should take one
weeks work i'm a year to keep good
system Of records, the time will be well
spent IL the work of the year were to
result in an annual profit Of $1,715, or
a loss Of $3.50 as IA consequence OF
keeping records or not keeping them.
The time required is really very small.
The milk record is the dairyman's
barometer; by means Of 1t he can keep
checked up on his individual cows, on
his mixers and on his system of feed
ing. BY means of 1t he will notice any
increase or decrease in milk flow, and
in the latter case be able to avoid trou-
BILE by removing the cause. More inter-
est is taken in feeding the cows care
fully when their records are kept. A
circular balance scale and q sheet Of
paper ruled off, together with the Bah
cock test will do the work. Cow test
ing a-sociations are doing good work
all over the country. From ten to
| twenty or more farmers may club to-
gether and agree to pay a qualified
man to test their herds each month.
sharing expenses equally. The system
Is particularly valuable to the men
with purebred herds, as they can get
their good animals tested for the adj
vanced register. Record keeping helps
the dairyman ito get rid Of his rob
ber."
Gull Out Improbable Cows.
Cows that prove Improbable should
be sold at once. Those paying only q
small profit may be kept until better
ones are bought or raised to take their
places. Young heifers that do not
show up during their first lactation
period may sometimes make a good
showing on a second years trial. Good
cows can often be purchased that will
pay for their feed, care and cost prices
in one year and return a good profit
besides.
