Prepared by the Unieed States Depart

Practical reports from the various
cowfesting associations throughout
the country show the value of this
work Of separating the chaff from the
wheat in cowdom- The modern cow
testing association is the best scientific
agency for isolating and eradicating
the drones from the herd, while 1t also
Is of value as detect0r of the highest
producing animals. Such studies of
the cows appetite, digestion and pro-
duction are the economical and logical
methods of increasing the net earn-
ings of the dairy.
One Ohio cow-testing association,
whose members owned 3S5 cows last
year, reports an association average of
345 pounds of butterfat per cow, and
that the present production of the
cows is 72 pounds of fat more apiece
than it was at the first of the year.
Another cow-testing association an
nounces that its expenses during the
last FIVE years have been below $4,000
while the value of the increased pro-
duction during only the last year has
aggregated over $1,000. This remark
| able increase in income is not abnor-
NAL for this particular association as
during each year the production of the
cows has improved and the returns
greatly increased. Members from an
other association report that all other
cow owners are feeding the individual
animals according to the capacity and
production of each COW. This is a re-
