TEST YOUR COWS
FIGURES PROVE 1T
IS WORTH WHILE
Three Years Work in Arkansas Valley
Testing Association Proves That
Milk Flow and Butter Fat
Content Can be
Increased.

There should be Cow Testing As
sociation in every community where
COWS are MIXED for profit.
In looking over three years work
of the Arkansas Valley Cow Testing
Association, one finds that the milk
flow increased in three years from
6109 pounds to 7070 pounds, or 96i
pounds per COW per year. The but
ter fat increased from 216.5 pounds
to 245.S pounds, or 29.3 pounds per
COW per year. Figure butter fat at
any price you choose, say 60c per
pound, it would mean s17.58 per COW.
During the same time the feed bill
per cow increased from s73.72 to S120.-
80, but the profits per cow per year
also increased from S59.53 to $4,000.
That shows that it pays to feed good
cows.
To feed one COW roughage alone
for one year, it cost from S73.72 to
S962O during the years of 1917 to 1920.
From the above figures you should
agree that an investment of from
$500 to $500 per COW would be
good one to find the cows that are
eating $73.72 to $96.2O worth of rough
age alone, and not paying for it thru
the milk pail If you only found one
COW in your herd tbut you probably
will find one-fourth of the herd) that
did not pay for her keep, the finding
would more than pay your Cow-Test-
ing Association bill for one year.
Cow testing is worth while to the
dairyman who makes use Of his test
ing records. 1t is just one big step
towards better dairying. For infor-
nation concerning a cow testing as
sociation, write F. F. Ball at the Ag-
ricultural College in Fort Collins.

FNGlNEERS of the federal recla-

preliminary report, based on II
hasty, tentative survey, on flood pre-

report has been received by Secretary

copy has been sent to the mayor of
Pueblo.
The engineers, james Mum and J.
