TESTING DAIRY COWS.
Increased Profits as Result of Co-opera.
tive Work.

Increase of from $40 to $15 and in
some cases much higher in the annual
profits from each dairy cow have re-
suited from the organization of coop
erative coW-testing associations in the
United States, according to statistics
gathered by the dairy division of the
United States department Of agricul-
ture. The expense of membership III
these associations, on the other hand,
has been only $50 per cow per year
The organizations therefore have been
very profitable.
Because of the great and obvious
economic advantages arising from the
associations dairy specialists of the
department believe that the organiza-
tions are one Of the most important
factors for the upbuilding and devel
opment Of the dairy industry in this
country. Such an organization con.
sists generally of 26 farmers, living
within a radius of few miles, who co
operate to hire an expert tester to keep
accurate accounts of the amounts and
cost of feed consumed by each COW il
! the association, the quantity of milk
produced by each and its richness in
/ butter fat. These statistics usually re
veal the fact that some cows are MOI
producing enough to pay for thei
keep, while others are highly profit
able. Acting on this information tn,
owner of the cows disposas of the leas
desirable of his animals and makes u,
his herd exclusively OF those that pro
! duce considerable profit.
The membership of the association i
! placed at &c SO that the tester ear
make a complete round each month, de
voting one work day to each member
and that he may keep his records o.
4 q monthly basis It has been found b,
careful experiments that the averag,
based on monthly tests do not var,
more than two per cent from the pro
duction, as shown by daily observa
tions. Since the tester is an exper
and can make the necessary tests an
computations rapidly, and since he ca
be depended on to make his observa
tions independently of pressure 0
work on the individual farm, the owr
crs of dairy COWS find it cheaper an
more satisfactory in many cases t
have their testing done through the a,
ISOLATION than to undertake to 90
themselves.

legalize combinations in the export
trade, recognizes the very necessity
which prompted the organization Of
the International for the rapid develop
ment of foreign trade.
To the government s various charges
of unlawful purpose, it is answered
That the acts of men are the best
evidence of their intentions and the
tribute to the honesty and fairness of
the business of the International, in
the opinion of the judges in the courts
below, is the strongest evidence that
the claim of the government has no
real or substantial foundation.
1t is explicitly denied that the In
ternational has the power to drive out
competitors or raise prices. 1t is argued
that the International s share of the
harvester trade steadily decreased dur
ing the ten years covered by the rec
ord, while that OF its competitors
largely increased. also that new and
powerful competitors, with over $Si,-
100000 capital have entered the field
since the international was formed.
This does not include the big Massey
Harris company of Canada with re-
sources of S20,800,000. In ten years
the International $ competitors, the
brief adds. increased their capital
stock more than Sl33O00.0OO, against
the International 5 100000 600 in,
crease.
The brief asserts that the Interna
4 tioral now has less than Is per cent
of the harvesting machine trade and
less than % per cent Of the trade in al
lines of agricultural implements that
IL manufactures
The brief concludes that the crucia
issue is not as to the purpose of tn,
company 5 organization in 1902, but
whether, when the suit was brought il
1912, il was unduly restraining trade
or threatening to do so.
The brief suggests that, in any view
dismissal OF the suit without prejudice
would protect the interests of tn,
public by enabling the government a
all times promptly and effectively t.
prevent any attempt to monopolize o
restrain trade on the part of the dc
