MANY LEAKS IN THE
DAIRyING BUSINESS
And Cooperation Is Advised
BY Government Experts.

There are SO many leaks in the
dairy business that only by the use
.of the best business principles can Il
be made permanently profitable In
dividual cows must each make a pro
fl over the cost of feed; this can be
determined only by WEIGHING each
cows milk and the feed that she con.
sumes The old argument that the
best cows are known may hnve some
foundation, but few men know the
poorest cows, and the latter go to
make up the average as well rs the
good COWS. No dairy is better than
its average production. If this is too
low the herd is not paying profit,
business principles must therefore
be applied to lowering the cost of
milk production. Efficiency is rs
much a necessity on the farm as in
the factory. Few men feed their
COWS in proportion to the quantity of
milk produced yet what could be
more nearly right With little regard
for her needs. feed is put before the
COW in ulenty if it is cheap and in
less quantity if the price is high.
! Cows use about Go per cent of their
feed merely q keep their bodies work
ing. and 1t is the quantity that is fed
above this fixed necessity that fur
nishes the material for HE milk Too
often the dairyman says 4 would do
all the up=to-date things if had the

run his business without keeping
books Yet that is what the farmer
is doing
Working in cooperation. dairymen
can obtain the benefits of business
methods at very small cost through

Such an expert travels from farm to

and tested. as is her feed An ac-

can be ascertained. The heifers Of
