Our Dairy Cows Pay Good Prices
For Crops.

wisconsin, the dairy Denmark of
America, is held up to the dairymen of
the country as the model, the leader,
the to be patterned after by dairy
states of the Union. 1t isn't to be
wondered at, for carefully compiled
statistics reveal to us that Wisconsin
dairy products for the year 1914 were
worth a great big round hundred mil
lion dollars" writes Fred w. Merrill
of Illinois.
During the same year that state
produced good many other crops
corn, wheat. oats, barley, rye, hay,
potatoes, buckwheat, tobacco, grass,
silage, timothy, seed, fruit and mis-
cellaneous crops, but no two crops put
together would equal in value the
dairy products of the state.
"The best part of the story is that
Wisconsin's dairy COWS furnished the
market and paid high price for many
of the other crops. The dairy COWS in
Wisconsin paid five million dollars for
silage. They paid fifty million dollars
for the grass grown on Wisconsin hills,
and paid good prices for the grain and
hay produced on Wisconsin farms.
"In Wisconsin there are, on an aver
age, nine COWS to every farm, and they
are kept on 16O,567 farms.
1.-The milk from Wisconsin dairy
COWS was made into approximately
1SO, 200 pounds of cheese. The
butter fat yielded 131 100000 pounds of
butter, for which the farmers received
throughout the year an average price OF
81 cents a pound"
