Terrell Cotton Crop
Gathered Rapidly

cotton crop is being gathered rapid

season. Although much cotton has
been gathered, something like Is to
80 per cent the fields in some sec

A conservative estimate is that
Terrell county will produce some

cotton as compared with 1900 last
year. The estimate at the beginning
but due to unfavorable conditions it
will fall far short, at least three or
four thousand bales. The acreage in
cotton this year is about 10 to Is per

How Do You Know
Which Of Your Cows
Are Profit or Loss:

Coos county, N. H., has very suc-
cessful cow-testing association. A
report from that district regarding
the do1lars-and-cents value Of the as
ISOLATION says: MANY times the test
ers salary is saved each month"
One farmer in the Coss County as
sociation reports yearly saying of
$525 in the feed bills alone. Xnother
with eight cows claims a net gain
Of $3.50 a year from the work Of the
association, and a local cattle dealer
says that the tests add $40 per head
to the value of good cows.
A farmer near Lancaster ofered
to sell one of his cows for SIS be-
forefore testing her. After the test,
however, she was not for sale, be-
cause during the ten months she
made more net profit than his twelve
lowest-producing cows combined.
These and other figures from the
Coos County association show that
COW testing may be made to pay big
returns. It's educational value is also
great.
Contrasting work is growing rap
idly. Less than 1 per cent Of all the
dairy cows in the United States have
been tested for production. Progress
sive dairymen say that there should
now be at least many times that
