these requirements were determined
in pounds of feed, hours of labor, ETC.,
and by substituting present costs and
values for the various items farm
er can determine very closely what it
is costing him to produce 100 pounds
of milk at the present time.
| In the summer months the require
ments for 100 pounds Of milk were as
follows: Concentrates, 20 pounds; dry
roughage, 27.4 pounds; silage and 9th
' er succulent roughage, COL pounds;
hauling and grinding concentrates.
$O014; pasture. O.O4 acre; human lab
or, 2.2 hours; horse labor, O.2 hour;
overhead and other costs, $0.393.
In the winter months the REQUIRE
ments for production were; Concen-
trates, 1876 pounds; dry roughage, 66.8
pounds; silage and other succulent
roughage, 147.6 pounds; hauling and
grinding concentrates, 5000; bedding
20.3 pounds; human labor, 2.5 hurs.
horse labor, 0.3 hour; overhead and
other costs, $0.385.
IL has been generally believed that
the cost of producing milk and con-
slderably higher in winter than in sum
mer; and while this holds true as far
as the gross cost is concerned. the
flgures obtained in this Investigation
show that the net cost Of producing
l00 pounds of milk from November to
April was only 1.8 per cent higher
than the cost from May to October,
inclusive, and that the total cost
varied only slightly from month to
month with each of these seasons.
This small difference between net
costs of production during winter and
summer is largely due to the greater
credit allowed for manure during the
winter season.
| The price received for the milk.
however, fluctuated sharply from
month to month.

as cost of keeping a cow for one year,

of the financial trouble it might make.
A h~ard-headed old Yankee up in Yer

of postholes for the telephone COM
phone company. He was to be given
two shares of stock for each hole.
After he had worked for a while he
went on strike, and so notified the
officials of the company.
"Im getting the worst of this"
said he grumbling. "After this |
won't take but one share of stock
for each posthole."
