LETTERS TO THE
EDITOR
COST OF PRODUCING MILK
Analysed by County Agent F. H. Abbott
Business Methods Urged.

Eultof, barre Times:
The recent milk strike in New York
and the still more recent controversy in
New England over the price which the
farmer should be allowed for his milk
has brought out some very interesting
facts and figures. The farmer in the
past has been able to get along without
any particular inquiry into his business.
| He has been able to trust to his good
judgment and rely on the oft-repeat ted
| formula "The Lord will provide a seed
time and a harvest" for his success. Due
to the rapid changes that have taken
place in the last few years as regards the
prices of land, feeds and produce as well
as labor, the farmer must begin to figure
in order to make both ends meet. 1t has
become necessary for him TO put his
farming operations upon a foundation of
figures and calculation. While an over
dose OF efficiency in this direction might
be disastrous, certain amount of it is
absolutely necessary in order to maintain
the farm as paying proposition.
There is plenty of evidence of this in
the fact of so many failures, farmers who
are selling out their dairies to give them
time to put in upon some better paying
project. The enormous decrease in the
number of dairy cows in New England in
the past few years is point of evidence
that cannot be disregarded In other
words, farmers are being driven out of
the dairy business because of two main
reasons; First, because they have not re-
eeived price for their product in keep
ing with the prices on other commodities,
and, second, because they have not paid
enough attention to the methods of i'm
proving the dairy herd and the quantity
and quality of the product.
Recent inquiries reveal the fact that
two farmers in every hundred keep a
strict account of their farming opera
tions. About 25 in 100 keep partial &C
counts by means of inventories and |
accounts. Invariably it is no |
ticed that the men who keep these ac-
counts are the most successful ones. The
one who knows how much his potatoes |
cost per bushel how much his pork costs |
per pound and how much his milk costs
per hundred pounds, or butterfat per
pound is in a position to improve his
business to a greater extent than the
man who at the end of the year knows
only that he has so much money or so
many bills to pay.
Usually figures make very poor read
ng, but those given below are worth
more than a casual glance. 1t will pay
you to study them a little to see wherein
'omes the lesson. Records were kept on
a farms to determine the actual cost of
producing milk. The detailed summary
If an average herd is herewith given. 1t
will seem at first glance that some of the
igures are high, but after you have gone
'ver them carefully you will see the JUS
ice of the charges. We are not supposed

Iure it furnishes or for the fun of milk

SCORED TWICE
ON SPAULDING
Once by Drop Kick and 9th
err by Plunging for a
Touchdown
MONTPELIER SEM.
WINNER, 10 TO 0
Spaulding Much Lighter and
Played a Plucky
Game

From the time Hatch, Montpelier sem
inary's left halfback and probably the
best kicker in Vermont interscholastic
football to-day, kicked a field goal from
the 42-yard line in the first period the
Montpelier eleven played Spaulding high
TO standstill at Intercity park yester-
day afternoon and the touchdown made
by Granai in the final period was but the
natural result of heavier team playing
against much lighter opponents.
Montpelier earned their 10 points and
Spaulding deserves much credit for their
plucky defense and futile efforts to score.
The seminary. has yet to be scored upon
this season and if their exhibition yes
terday is to be taken as a criterion OF
their strength the hill team should prove
a strong contender for the state cham
pionship. Hateh's dropkick was one of
the prettiest field goals ever made on
gridiron and for nearly an hour it seemed
as if it might be the only points scored in
the game. He tried two other kicks, one
from the 50-yard mark and the other on
the 90 yard line, but both failed to carry
true. The Tomasi brothers. and especial
ly John Tomasi, starred for Spaulding,
several times breaking away for runs of
10 to 90 yards but the high school team
was unable to use the forward pass sue
cessfully and with light line could not
open up holes often enough to allow the
backs to progress far into the enemy's
territory.
Spaulding kicked off st. Mary catch
ing the pigskin. An incomplete forward
pass followed and then st, Mary made a
gain of Is yards On fake kick forma
tion the same little back repeated the
performance and seminary had the ball
on Spauldng's 30-yard line. Hatch FUN
bled and after Spaulding made first down
on four rushes Gordon punted With
Montpelier in possession of the ball again
Spaulding was penalized five yards for
first down; Hatch made 10 yards and
then made his sensational field goal.
The remainder of the first period and /
all OF the second quarter found each side !
making big gains but neither eleven was /
able to score. Hatch had an attempted |
dropkick blocked on his 20-yard line and
the half ended with Montpelier in posses
sion of the ball at the middle of the field. !
Near the close of the third quarter |
Spaulding developed considerable often
sive strength and carried the ball over
40 yards, making four first downs only |
to tumble the ball which Ramsdel re-
covered. Owen made Is yards through |
center and Hatch emulated the fullback.
Three rushes gave Montpelier first down
on Spauldings l2-yard mark and four
more carried it to within two yards Of
the goal line. Granai squirmed through |
for a touchdown on the first play. With
only three minutes left to play Spaulding
endeavored to score by the forward pass
method but seminary easily broke up the
plays The summary;
