u dare say that you are aware that
the farmers of this country are as eff
ficient as any other farmers in the
world. They do not produce more
per acre than the farmers in Europe
1t is not necessary that they should
do so. 1t would perhaps be bad econ
omy for them to attempt IT, But
they do produce by two to three or
four times more per man, per unit of
labor and capital, than the farmers
Of any European country. They are
more alert and use more labor saving
devices than any other farmers in the
world. And their response TO the de-
mands of the present emergency has
been in every way remarkable. ~

The Jackson County Journal, speak
ing of dairy products during the war,
says: ''If the war continues a couple
of years longer the Wisconsin cow
will be wearing kid slippers as she
meanders to and from the pastures.
The demand for milk from the cities
and for the condensories is so great
in some sections the price has ad-
vanced to S3.40 per hundred Gcight,
or 7c per quart, al the farm. In
Milwaukee and Chicago fresh milk
will be sold at Is to 20 cents per
quart during the winter months. As
for butter and cheese, they will also
reach new limits. With all this great
increase in the demand for milk pro-
ducts, the number of dairy cows is
said not to be increasing, the farmers
having such difficulty in procuring
help that they cannot keep larger
herds. After the war, milk prices
may decline to some extent, but prob
ably they never get back to before
the-war levels. Dairying promises to
be very profitable line for the farm
ers for many years to come"
