Tempe in Favor of Raising More Dairy Cows

ment of any farm produces crop that does not fail-the element of specula- ton is eliminated The silo, alfalfa cows and pigs are the four sure corner stones of farm profit and soil fertility There is nothing to be compared with it. The regular weekly or monthly dairy check helps maintain farming on a cash basis, thus adding to the pleas ure of life on the farm.
 Every state and every farm neigh borhood has an opportunity to double or treble the number of hogs and cows on each of it's farms and thus through the constant enriching of the soil literally add millions to it's income pos abilities The general farmer who keeps a goodly number of cows is con- stantly building farm that won't wear out Dairy rather than beef cattle are essential to the prosperity of every community simply because they add to and take nothing away from the soil. the fundamental source of all things
 Dairying should be an important de- partment of every general farm The income from dairy products even as a side issue is almost money found. just like chicken and egg money
 Every township should have its farmers club: every town it's conner cial club and these, with the merchant and the banker in the vanguard, should be working to build up the dairy ln- dustry and promote diversified farm ing Bring in the best breeds of milk ing cows hogs and sheep, encourage the building of silos and creameries and the introduction of modern tools and appliances. In the hands of com petent farlers they are a source Of and increasing income, the agents of prosperity. They increase the buying power of an inn portant percentage of every farming community.

 INDUSTRY IF NATION
By L. r. Kitts, The Laval Supply Co.

The white race cannot survive with out dairy products. Milk, the first requisite of life after birth makes the dairy industry the oldest and most i'm portant on earth. The foundation of child health is proper feeding and this fact forces public recognition of the dependence of the human animal upon his cattle. This condition is responsi- ble for the dairy industry being the second largest industry of the nation. As the population increases, the daIy industry will grow in proportion.
 The foundation Of our national pros- perity and our supremacy among the nations of the world in agriculture are based and dependent upon animal hus- bandry, because it is the conservitor of the fertility of our soil-the very back bone of our national wealth and health. The enormous crops produced on the hard worked lands of Holland, Denmark Belgium, France and Ger many are directly due to the conserva- tion of soil fertility through the agency of animal husbandry.
 Take a community where dairying is carried on to any great extent and you will find unusually prosperous com You will find the lands of the neighborhood producing big crops of all descriptions. The dairy depart
