Dairy Meeting Was
Attended By Many

over 100 dairymen and farmers
from over the state attended the
meeting of the Kansas State Dairy
association held Saturday at Cham
her of Commerce rooms. DR.. H. j.
Waters, president of the Kansas
State Agricultural college, Prof. u
e. Reed of K. s. A. c.; T. A. BOT
man of the Beatrice Creamery com
nany. Chicago, and George Lenhert
were the speakers. The gathering
was of much benefit to the agricui-
turists and dairymen and all the
talks were good. The meeting was
in every way successful. R. w. Ems
of Newton, president, presided at
the sessions.
Several automobiles took the
visitors to the E. S. Engle & Son
Holstein herd at Sand Springs on
an inspection trip at o'clock this
morning but the tour for the after
noon was called off because OF the
rain.
Cow Testing Association Praised
Prof. o. E. Reed in his address
on kansas AS Dairy State, at
the morning session, emphasized
the necessity of thoroughbred stock
for foundation cows for herd and
made the startling statement that
too many Gull cows are being ship
ped in by the Kansas dairymen'
along with the fact that more COWS
are being shipped into this state
from eastern states for dairylng
purposes than any other western
state.
He praised the work of the Dick
inson County Cow Testing associa-
ton and characterized it as the best
advertising medium the state has
for its dairy industry. This local
organization has made Kansas ma
tionally noted. Plans of the organ
izing of these in the other parts OF
the state were outlined.
Farm Dairying Inevitable
DR.. Waters in speaking on the
subject, "The Establishing or the
DAIRY on a Permanent Basis for the
Farm" said: "The establishment OF
the dairy on the farm Is inevitable
because of three reasons: The soil
is not exhausted in this method;
more labor is employed; and the
product, as butter, goes to the mar
ket in such a concentrated form for
food purpose that it can success
fully compete with any commodity
Offered.
"AlI animal foods are costly,
said he, "and the COW can prodcce
human food the most cheaply and
abundantly. She is, in fact, the most
efficient machine" To drive the
point home he compared the dairy
producf cost with the cost of beef
Proving that butter was best form
for the expectation of surplus farm
products he said: kansas in the
past year shipped out 9,OOO,OOO
pounds Of butter. The raw feed
would have brought $1,S00,OOO on
foreign markets. The freight would
have cost $1,74O,OOO and the state
would have been poorer by $2,925,-
600.
"The butter carried away from
the Kansas farms $4,000 worth OF
soil fertility. The feed If sold would
have exhausted our soil to the value
of s1,65O,OOO."
again, if the grain or feed would
have been sold employment would
have been furnished only six months
of the year while dairying pro-
