DAIR WARNING POsSIBHI-
TIES IN BEAR LAKE COUNTY
(By F. r. Cammack, State Field
DairymaA.)
Farm Bureau Newal


II have been much impressed by
the dairy possibilities of Bear Lake
county. One would have to go a
long way to find better natural pas
lures than are found here. There are
very few records kept from which to
judge but 1t is undoubtedly true that
two OF three cows can be kept on one
acre during the season. The natur-
al and climatic conditions are ideal
except for the cold winter season, and
this can be overcome by the construc-
ton of good barns. 1t has been an
important part of dairy work to keep
the cows sheltered from severe
storms and this should. Of course.
always be done. When II is remem-
bered that many sections with more
severe winters are well known as
dairy countries 1t can readily be un-
derstood that this only a slight
difficulty 10 be overcome and at COM
paratively small expense.
Another reason given why dairy
ing in localities such as this does not
develop is the shorter growing sea-
son due to the high altitude. 1t ia
true that it is not possible to grow
as many crops of alfalfa hay and that
corn does not mature as completely
as in other sections, but this again
is not a serious hindrance. Two good
crops of alfalfa can be grown and
this is sufficient to keep a large mum
Der of cattle. Root crops can be grown
very successfully and sunflower, peas
and oats and other crops can be
grown for forage.
Several localities with higher alti-
tudes have made a splendid success
Eof dairying. The very highest quail
ity of dairy products can be manu-
factur I'd because of the cool nights
an important advantage over many
sections where dairying has proven
successful because they overcame the
difficulties arising from hot summer
nights. Thus IL can be seen that al
the crops necessary for a balanced
ration for the dairy COW can be raised
on the farms in this locality and tbs
slight difficulties to overcome are mo-
serious hindranee. Naturally Il
would be difficult to find a locality
better suited to dairying than Beal
Lake county.
II would be hard 70 estimate tn
value that the pioneer dairymen hav'
been to this locality. Herds such a
those which Bulge. Brown and other
have kept have been the creates
Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1919-10-03

demonstration OF the value and need
u the dairy industry to the section.
Il is difficult to point to a better herd
than that which was sold by Mr..
Bulge last year. There were very
few such herds in the west. The av-
erage production of the cows in the
locality are much higher as result
II the use OF good dairy bulls in the
herd.
1t is an old saying that necessity
is the mother OF invention" and
this applies to our lives in many
ways. With the alfalfa weevil mem
ace. the lessening OF the range pas
ture for beef cattle and sheep. the
need for more intensive farming
methods, ETC., are causing a neces-
sity to look to other systems OF farm
ing than have been practiced in the
past. II has been much easier In the
past TO make good on the farm with
less labor than II will be In the fu-
ture. say It with the greatest re-
spect that 1t is human nature to avoid
tho more steady and permanent
methods of farming such as dairy
lfag ana some other livestock farm
systems and to look for the cash
crop systems which permit greater
freedom, even though they may re-
quire greater labor during part of
the season. 1t is this tendency that
keeps dairying from developing as
fast as It needs to develop. The far
mers have been TOO prosperous to
need dairying. earnestly believe
there is a nucleus of changing atti-
tude and with the approaching neces-
slty there will be greater change. II
is In many ways false to believe that
dairying is undesirable because in
the best dairy districts are found the
highest type OF farmers who are real
ly most Independent Of all external
conditions. The dairy industry helps
4 TO increase land values. make better
homes. more contented people and
greater prosperity. All progressive
people should help develop the dairy
industry In Bear Lake county be-
cause there IL a great opportunity
to develop this Industry in this To-
cality and II should be realized.

FIGHT AGAINST TuBERcufosIs

To be Weeded Out.
DARN Rureau Newsl

(farm bureau NewSD
The Idaho Association for the Pre-
vention OF Tuberculosis feels that the
relation of bovine tuberculosis is one
of the most important of pubic health
problems and desires that the thot-
full people of all communities mako
inquiry as to whether the meat used
on the table is properly inspected.
In Idaho large numbers OF hogs and
chickens are found to be tubercu-
lar and should be destroyed. Many
mich cows are tuberculous. Have
you considered what this will mean
to the babies and children using the
milk? II we are to save 1.000. 200
children of tender years this year and
1 100000 babies. and every other
year henceforth we must eradicate
this source of infection.
Every year In the United States
$4,000 babies die of tuberculosis.
There is almost absolute evidence
that most infections occur In child
hood--usually babyhood, either from
direct human contact with the dis
ease or from infection through cows
milk. Knowing that milk is almost
the sole food of millions OF babies
and the most important food OF child
rem Of all ages, what could be more
necessary than positive proof that the
milk fed your child is from a herd
tested for tuberculosis at least every
six months?
1t has been proven where tubercu-
losis is most abundant in cattle II is
most abundant in man. Mitchell, writ
ing in the British Medical Journal OF
1914, says that cows mix is respon-
sible for 80 per cent OF tuberculous
lymph glands in Edinburg, and Wang
tells US that 75 per cent OF the child
rem dying from abdominal and men
ingeal tuberculosis have the bovine
infection which usually enters by way
of tonsils or intestfmes. We are al
so told that Joint Tuberculosis comes
from this source.
A quotation from the address OF
DR.. Barton r, Rogers at the An
nual Meeting of the Nation Tubercu-
losis Association. at Boston, June s.
1918,
If few of the Herbivorious cows
and herds in this country (produc-
ing our most potentially valuable OF
foods) are in such condition that
within one year they will cause tu-
beculosis in nearly ten million omni-
verous hogs, what are those same
COVE and herds doing to the human
race during the ten year milk drink
ing period of childhood?"

SOFT DRINK SALES ARE

one reason advanced by bottlcrs
was the closing Of a number Of s1-

reason was the high cost OF living in
