happiness on their life's journey as
well as good luck on their journey
home. e.. We are sorry indeed to read
of the many deaths caused by the flu
and sympathize with the mourners.
The flu also called on nearly all the
homes in this vicinity; in some cases
all the members of the home being
sick at one time. 1t was nice to see
how neighbors and friends turned in
and helped to the best of their ability.
The homes where the flu is now call

why Colds are Dangerous

You are often told to "beware of a
cold" but why? We will tell you:
Every cold weakens the lungs, lowers
the vitality and paves the way for the
more serious diseases. People who
The longer a cold hangs on, the great
er the danger, especially from the
germ diseases, as a cold prepares the
system for the reception and develop
ment of the germs of consumption,
diphtheria, scarlet fever and whooping

your cold, the less the danger of con-
tracing or of these diseases. Cham

reputation as cure for colds and can
be depended upon. 1t is pleasant to

Get Ready for the Sales

Put away the returns of one acre
of tobacco and buy a good Jersey COW
the II of March if you want a good
individual of that breed. / am not
advertising any one particular breed,
but can not help to mention it at this
time, as Mr.. Peterson, the secretary
of the State Jersey Breeders Asso-
citation is making this sale possible
right here at home, and they are of
excellent breeding and we want some
to stay in this county; as we are the
Jersey center of Wisconsin we want
some of them to stay here. Think it
over. Get a catalogue; come to the
sale and take a good one home.
A little later will be the Guernsey
sale, which will be held by the Guern-
sey breeders of Vernon county. We
have plenty of room for Guernseys,
Jerseys, and all other breeds, so rea-
son withself and help make Vernon
county the county that everybody
wants it to be.
There are about 1000 farmers in
the county and only about 500 of them
have pure bred sire and only about
700 of them have a pure bred register
ed sire, so if we had 400 farmers who
all had the same breed we should be
able to give room for nine breeds and
still have 400 farmers left to trail
along behind with the scrubs. Get
the pure bred sire.

WITH THE COUNTY AGENT
More Pure Breds-You Can't Keep
Them Out

Mr.. H. O. Melby of Westby pur-
chased ? nure bred Guernsey bull with
a good pedigree back of him. His
two seass 81 daaas have records aver
aging 1926 pounds of butter fat in
year. Those are the kind of animals
we want TO bring into the county and
keep just as long as they, are useful
| heard man say the other day
that one good COW is just as good as
ten scrubs; well, can easily believe
him, as one man told me that they
had is cows last year and their milk
checks showed that they produced
1900 pounds of fat for the year, or
each COW produced 100 pounds of but
ter fat which would equal about I25
pounds of butter. Figuring butter at
61c as an average price for the year,
they Melted SS1.25 per COW. Not very
many farmers would feed a cow for
a year for the above amount. One
farmer told me that it cost him STOP
head to feed his cows last year.
(You see he kept account, that is why
he knew what it cost him to feed
them). Well, we will have to con-
clude that the 10 cows did not much
more than pay for their keep. Pro-
baby they were not fed right. More
cows are under-fed than over-fed.
Farmers can not afford to sell grain.
1t should be fed to live stock on the
farm. Of course, it is better to sell
the grain thar to feed it to scrub
stock as you are really taking long
chance on &c tting returns in that way,
but we should become better feeders.
Now to come back to our good COW.
One good COW that will produce 500
pounds of butter fat in a year which
will make better than 600 pounds of
butter will net somewhere like $500
for a year, and we will say it cost
5000 to feed her. We still have $3.50
left and suppose we will have to call
that gain or profit. We will say the
COW cost the owner 81 900. Ga lot of
money for one cow. The $50 win
pay the interest and some on the in
vestment, but just wait a minute, we
have forgotten all about the calf which
is pure bred, and having dam with
a 500 pound fat record that viii sell
for, well won't say, but you go out
and. try to buy one like it and you will
know better then what they are worth
Well, we are away ahead of the 10 or
16 scrub cow game for as one good
cow gives nice profit, the 10 or 16
scrubs just keep going, and also keep
the owner going, and give no profit.
