portant work along this line in the
future. The high cost OF feed has
placed many dairy COWS over the
deadline when the scales and Bah
COCK test were applied. To offset this
handicap the introduction OF the silo
has been urged. Considerable effort
has been made In working up inter-
est. and the first four silos ever con-
structed In one county were put up
this year under the direction Of the
county agent.
Through farmers excursions the
farmers have been made acquainted
with the value OF these structures and
many are now ready to build To In
crease the general market conditions
OF dairy products and Go care for In
creased production. considerable time
has been spent on marketing. Bet
ter prices have been obtained for
market milk; farmers cooperative
factories have been made more sani-
tary and efficient and several new
plants have been started for the
making OF butter and cheese.
EgE Market Associations
Two egg marketing associations
have been formed. but progress has
been slow. due 20 the newness OF this
business. Some progress has been
made In the Standardization OF farm
products and live stock and market
INK In CARROTS, This is particularly
true OF hogs. alfalfa seed and pota-
toes. From some OF the counties a
considerable number OF carloads OF
potatoes were shipped out where pre-.
viously imports were made 90 supply
home consumption.
Farm analysis records were taken
In five areas through the county
agents, assisted by the state special
list About two hundred and fifty rec
ords were taken. OF which one hun
dred and seventy-three Nere obtained
by the agents and state leader. They
returned one hundred and twenty
seven of the old records TO the farm
ers and replanned with them their
farm business. The ordinary labor
atory method OF working with farm
ers In groups was used successfully
last year in one area and Is being
adopted for all areas this year.
