Dairy Commissioner Matthews. of Illi-
nois. under whose direction this work
has been carried on in Illinois. says
thnt not cent Of the money has
been lost that has been advanced to the
farmers to buy cattle. The railroads
in Illinois have purchased pure bred
dairy type bulls and distributed them
as loans TO the farmers on their lines.
The business men and banks have
taken stock in the crcameries to get
them started ON Il sound financial
basis and these men are satisfied that
their investment is n good one and
they can be found giving their active
and sympathetic support to the move
ment.
The progressive business men. bank
crS and farmers of the state have 1t In
their power to awaken n healthy SEN
timent in their respective commute
ties for greater prosperity. They can
bring the fruits OF this awakened
sentiment to their people by adopting
the ideas suggested in this article.
Write the State Dairy Commissioner
at Richmond. invite him to come to
your county or town and talk the mat :
ter over with YOU and your ncighbors.
The commissioner will he glad to go
and tell YOU in detail what he knows
and what other communities in the
state are doing, and how they do it.

The South's production is therefore
5362 per cent of the total production
Of the United States. and 1881 per cent
OF the entire worlds production.
The great significance OF the situa-
ton, as the Record points out. lies in
tho fact that outside of California it
is to tho South that the country must
look for its important oil production
during the next 'wo decades or so.
The northern Appalachian and north
crn mid continent fields are probably
incapable OF much further increased
production: II is In the South where the
only promising fields are to be found
outside the Pacific Coast
