man, - Cowtesting in Whatcom
county in June, brought to light
Holstein COW owned by A. E. Smith
& Co. Sumas. that during the month
produced 1891 pounds of milk which
tested 101.02 pounds of butterfat.
according to the summary of tests
forwarded by the cowtesters to Di-
rector S. B. Nelson Of the State Col
lege extension service.

In May. Whatcom county showed
up 10 Holsteins testing out SO pounds
of butterfat. or better, with many
running from 50 pounds to the
eighties. The milk average of all
Whatcom county Holsteins under
test in May was 1.636.84 pounds;
butterfat average. 6O.9S pounds. The
June testing left only 16 Holsteins
in the SO pound class, fact assigned
to the increase in dry feed used in
June. Their average individual pro-
duction was 1925 pounds of milk
testing 1922 pounds of butterfat.
Whatcom county Jerseys in the
fifty-pound or better class. in May
averaged 1,209.79 pounds of milk
and the per capita butterfat average
was 1888 pounds In June the
Jerseys averaged 1905 pounds of
milk and 68.S7 pounds of milk per
cow The increase in milk and but
terfat in June, per COW. seems large
ly due to the fact that in June all
but the very best of the Jerseys
dropped out of the 5O-pound class on
account of the diminishing spring
grass.
The Whatcom county Guernseys in
May averaged 1884 pounds of milk
and 56.43 pounds of butterfat. per

one life to live. What tragedy if he
should go through life with only his
physical nature developed but not his
more godlike mind and soul.
Equally important is good school
to the community as whole. Other
people Judge a neighborhood by the
character of school it supports.
Moreover, the presence of a good
school gives the citizens greater pride
in themselves and greater confidence
in themselves. Taxes spent for the
maintenance of good school consti-
tute not an expenditure but an invest
ment. How often does one find in spec
ial tax districts some farm whose
owner violently opposed the extra
school tax, but whose land almost
doubled in value because of the better
school the tax brought! There is hard
ly a community in the South where
the school is poor that has not lost
some good citizen for this reason.
Similarly, there is hardly communi-
ty with a good school in which that
school has not attracted one or more
good citizens to the neighborhood.
To farmers as a class also, good
country schools are of the highest
Importance. Farmers have not hereto
fore had a square deal from the Gov
ernment, and the only way they can
properly remedy this condition is by
education. An ignorant people may
rise up in anger and bring about a
revolution; but while an ignorant peo-
pie may destroy, they cannot rebuild.
Russia today seems to be living wit
ness of this fact. An ignorant people
has destroyed an old government, but
| is not able to set up new system
which will insure peace and prosperl-
ty. A seeing Samson could destroy
his enemies and save himself, but q
blind Samson could only pull down
the temple on himself and his enemies
! in one general ruin. So it is when a
people are blind through ignorance.
For all these reasons every reader
should think seriously about the i'm
portant things needed to make his
neighborhood school serve the great
purpose it ought to serve in enrichine
the lives of our children, building up
the community, and promoting the in
! terest of farmers as class.
