TENNESSEE JERSEY BREAKS
SOUTHERN RECORD

Beechfeld's Fairy Girl, a senior
yearling owned by KingswoOd Farm,
Murfreesboro, Tennessee, has just
made a record of 434 pounds of fat
and 511 pounds of butter from 8,217
pounds of milk in one year at the age
of year and II months Accordir"
to Professor C. Elmer Wylie, head Of
the department of dairylng, Colege
of Agriculture, University of Tenn
essee, this breaks the record for
Tennessee as well as for all Southern
States.
The record at this age, for Tenn
essee, was formerly held by Golden
Elsie Marie, owned by the Tennessee
Experiment Station. The Southern
record was formerly held by Blue
Fox's Eminent Tulip, owned by
Thomas Taylor, Jr,, of South Caro-
lima.
During the test Beechfeld's Fairy
Girl was fed on Schumacher feed, cot
tonseed meal, bran, clover hay, and
corn silage. She was under the care
of J. o. Key, herdsman, a graduate
of the University of Tennessee and
Lyle Bagswell. Kingswood farm has
10 cows on yearly test and these are
making a splendid showing.
Tennessee has long been noted for
its fine Jersey cattle. In fact the
foundation for some of the greatest
herds in America were selected from
Tennessee herds. The above record
is another victory for the Jersey
breeders of the state and should
serve as great stimulant to the
dairy industry in general in Tenn
essee.
There are now 35 herds of dairy
cattle on yearly butterfat tests in
Tennessee according to Professor
Wylie. This leads the number of
dairy herds on test in other Southern
states by large margin.

alist of the Division of Extension.
Eggs from pullets or hens that have
just started laying, assuring eggs of
strong vitality, should be selected in
all cases for late setting.
Under normal conditions about the
middle of May should be the latest
date for setting eggs and those " ~

already Matched can we'll afford to
take good care of them and plan to
do better next year. Of course,
where the number is very small it
might be well to set more later than
the middle of May, but care should
be exercised in getting first litter
eggs as explained above.

raise. Matches at that season are

usually very poor and warm weather

attack of disease and insect pests.
Lice, mites, and chiggers are especial
ly active during the early summer
and cause heavy losses of late hatch

value. Few pullets Matched in this

they are as a rule undersize. How
ever, if the case demands that more
eggs be set later than the middle Of
May, more care with the chicks will
have to be exercised than with the
early Matched ones. Disease and in

against with great caution.

The Tractor School

Last week, Friday and Saturday,
March 26 and 27, the Avery Tractor
people held a tractor school show
under the supervision of Schlyer &
Arnhold, the local agents at Hays,
for tractor owners and prospective
purchasers. The school was held in
the basement of the Farmers and
Merchants State Bank, and the mo-
ton picture show was at the Strand
The school was conducted by Theo.
Fisher, an experienced expert who has
been conducting schools in nearly
every county in Kansas and Missouri
A large and interested crowd was
present, who were all well pleased
and VINO expressed themselves as be-
ing well paid for the time and money
expended in attending.
Next year there will be only one
school in every three counties in the
state and it is up to the tractor own
ers of Ellis county whether the school
will be held in Hays or not.
Mr.. Fisher is thoroughly convers-
ant with his subject, and gave entire
satisfaction. The language used was
so simple that all could understand
and grasp just what he was talking
about. 1t is to be hoped that the
tractor owners of Ellis county will
endeavOr to secure Mr.. Fishers
school for Hays again next year.
