COMPARATIVELY
FEW COWS. REACT TO
TUBERCULIN TESTS

Out of total of 1928 cattle ex.
amined in this State by the tuber-
culin test during the month Of
July, 108 infected animals were
found. These belonged to CT sep.
arate herds. The ratio of one COW
in each eight examined being
tainted is considered a Favorable
one, in view of the fact that the
test has not been systematicallr
applied hitherto.
That every eighth COW, in the
average, is affected with tuberu.
losis is considered by the health
authorities justification for con-
tinuance of the work despite the
protest of certain owners at the
outset.
The August figures will cover a
much larger number of tests.

profit of S29.72 a head.
The lesson to be learned from
the past years work is that it
takes good cows, good feed and
good care to make a profitable
dairy. Leaving out any one of
these three REQUESTS puts the
herd at a disadvantage and re-
duces its efficiency.
1t should be kept in mind that
these statements relative to pro-
fits produced by the leading COWS
are for comparison only as the

1t is an interesting fact to note
that the records of several herds
during the testing year have been
the butt of much talk among the
neighboring farmers. It was the
general concensus or opinion that
one man was feeding everything
in sight just. to keep on top and
that regardless of the cost he
would make every effort to stay
there. The other man was con-
sidered as having the advantage
of a cheap source of feed. Due to
the different ways of marketing
the products there can be no COM
mon ground of comparison of the
feed costs and profits. Feed was
charged for at as near a uniform
price as could be and here are the
results.
j. T. Edmanson was the man
who fed away all his profits. He
probably wishes he had some more
to feed because they bring in
good returns. The value of his
product was an average of 40O.98
per COW with a feed cost of S17.79

known as a low tester yet some
are making good records in butter
production. In order to keep them
producing milk which will meet
the market standards it is neces-
sary to eliminate the low testers
and keep breeding for a high per
cent of butterfat. Fir the farmer
the only way to do this is through
the Cow Testing Association. One
year can only eliminate a few
animals. 1t requires continuous
work to make much constructive
progress in building up the high
yielding herd. With the excep-
tion of J. T. Edmanson, the high
est producing herds in the cow
testing association, have been
tested for two or more years. John
C. Mitchell is probably the oldest,
having been in every association
since the first was organized dur
ing 1915.
The results of the year are
given on both the milk basis and
the butterfat basis for individual
COWS. The herd averages are
divided into two classes. Herds
with less, than ten cows and herds
with more than ten cows. These
records are also given on both
milk and butterfat basis.

cows leading in the association re-
