Omaha daily bee., 1916-08-31

A lot OF broken down old milk
cows that eat up twice as much as
they turn out in the tactical fluid, form
no criterion by which to judge the
dairying possibilities of this state.
Prof. ]. H. Frandsen OF the State
Agricultural college staff says so, and
he ought to know.
"The dairying industry" says the
professor, is very much on the up
grade in this state, but there Is plenty
OF room for improvement. The big
problem is to get the farmers and
dairymen to see that they are losing
money by keeping low grade COWS.
When they do that, ordinarily it
doesn't take long to convince them
that they improve. For no man will
throw money away when he knows
it---and they are shown to be throw
ing money away when they keep cows
that eat more than they return to
the owners"
A few steps taken during the last
two or three years at the insistence
OF Prof. Frandsen, are worth while.
He has had most striking exhibits at
the state fair and has shown farmers
who have visited him that there are
vast differences between some OF the
cows which to all intents and purpos-
es look alike and which ought to re-
turn money in the same proportion.
There were farmers who disputed
him and who thought that he didn't
know what he was talking about.
One Of them who lived few miles

to run special trains into Lincoln on
all lines, reaching the city in the mid
die OF the forenoon and leaving in the
evening. This, with the regular train
service, has made it easy to attend
the fair and return the same day.
In this day OF the automobile, while
thousands OF people ride to Lincoln
in their own cars, the railroads have
not given up the special train idea and
notwithstanding the people have ac-
cess to their own method of trans
portation, the railroads appear to have
just about as many passengers and
the extra trains are crowded.
After reaching Lincoln, provided
that trains passing the fair grounds
do not stop and let off passengers,
which is done in some instances, one
will find getting to the grounds from
the city an easy solution.
First, the Lincoln Traction COM
pany has a double track to the
grounds, starting from Tenth and P
streets, and cars run as often as the
needs of the occasion demand. The
Burlington also runs shuttle train
from its station directly into the

He Taught Them How to Milk

from Lincoln was iasistent during a
study of the professors tables, and
when he got back home declared, to
his county demonstrators that neither
he nor Frandsen knew anything about
it.
The result was that test was ap-
piled to the old mooley--and very
much to the surprise of the farmer
she did not show up at all well in it.
She was losing money every day she
STAYED on his place. 1t was as II he
had tossed SO much money in a rat
hole each day.
He didn't lose much time in sepa-
rating her from his payroll He then
ambled meekly over to where Prof.
Frandsen works and asked him what
kind OF COW to buy and why-and
followed the professors advice quite
as eagerly as Il he hadn't pretended to
know all about it in the first place.
"This state is a most excellent place
for the dairying industry to flourish"
Prof. Frandsen contends. There are
facilities here which some of the
European countries, like Denmark and
Switzerland, would give everything
for. Yet we get less out Of them by
far than they do. When we begin
to avail ourselves Of our opportunities
to the same extent that they do then
we will begin to make dollars where
we now make cents--and farmers will
be owning interurban lines through
their districts instead OF merely being
contented to ride about in small cars
OF a popular make"

Beatrice Creamery
Company

The Beatrice Creamery company
started as a small concern in Beatrice
and moved to Lincoln in 1898, and
has since grown from the little acorn
to the mammoth and wide-spreading
business oak. Annually it sends out
100000 pounds of its famous brands
OF butter. Its product goes to every
corner OF the United States and into
other countries as well, this only
family showing what the Beatrice
Creamery company is to the state OF
Nebraska as a part of its manufac-
turing and dairy business.
And so as one visits the Nebraska
