Most parcels containing n dozen eggs
will exceed two pounds but will not
reach three; therefore the postage on
them will be seven cents within the
first and second zones. A parcel con
tanning two dozen eggs will add per-
haps two cents to the postage, though
sometimes only one cent depending
on the nature OF the container and the
packing and wrapping.
II should be observed that the larg

postage, as the first pound of every
package costs five cents within the
first and second zones, while each ad-
hitional pound up to 80, costs but one

would cost five cents postage, a two

DAIRY
HINTS
FACTORS IN PRODUCING MILK
Series of Studies Conducted by De-
partment of Agriculture in
Western State.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
What does it cost to produce milk
This is the question that has
brought increasing concern TO each
dairyman. In answer to ii. the Uns-
ted States Department Of Agriculture,
through the dairy division, conducted
a series of studies to give dairymen
reliable information on this subject.
These studies were begun in 1915, but
the most recent upon which any data
have been published was begun in
1917, in Skagit county, Washington,
about 20 miles north of Seattle. The
report of this study is contained in
Department Bulletin 919, "Unit Re-
quirements for Producing Milk in
Western Washington
A study of the results given in the
bulletin shfTe that at the time of the
study 56.4 ina gent of the total cost

vestigated tH4 for feed and bedding !;
23.5 per cent for labor; 17.6 per cent
for other costs, and 2.5 per cent for
depreciation. The requirements for

producing 100 pounds of milk during
the winter were: Concentrates, 294
pounds; dry roughage, 92.9 pounds;
succulent roughage, 1888 pounds !;
bedding, nine pounds; human labor,
10 hours; horse labor. oil of an hour;
other costs, $0.576. During the sum-
mer, milk could be produced at much
less cost, there being required a com
paratively small amount of concen-
trates.
During the two years covered by
the study, 44.5 per cent of each years
income from milk was obtained dur
ing the winter. During the first year
records were obtained on II herds,
having an average size of 31.3 cows,
with an average annual production of
1869 pounds of 3.74 per cent milk
per COW. During the second year Is

summer season, while three cows did
not calve during the year. Nearly
one-half of the cows freshening

months from February to May, in
elusive.
Most of the milk in this sec ion is
sold for condensng purposes, and is
delivered by motor truck to large con-
denseries. All the herds selected for
study were representative of dairy
conditions found in that section.
In western Washington the pasture
plays very important part in milk
production, according to the bulletin.
With cool weather throughout most Of
the summer, plenty of moisture. and
a rich soil, there is abundant pasture
until late in the fall. During the pas
ture season almost GO per cent of the
milk for the year was produced, and
at ope-third of the yearly feed, bed
ding and pasture cost. The annual
pasture charge per COW amounted to
IL acres or S23.04. Such items as
veterinary fees, medicine, disinfec-
tants. and other items, amounted to
Sl.45 per COW per year. 1t was found
that the number of hours required
to care for cow did not differ mate
rally between the summer and win
ter seasons. However. due to the In
creased flow of milk in summer, the
time required TO produce 100 pounds
of milk in that season was materially
less i'm summer than in winter.
