PROMOTE FRIENDLY RIVALRY
Milk and Cream Contest Are Impor.
tant Feature in improvement
of Supplies.

Friendly rivalry among milk pro
ducers and among dealers is an i'm.
pOrtant feature in the Improvement
Of the milk supplies Of cities, United
States Department Of Agriculture ex-
perts assert. Any factor which en-
courages this rivalry must be given
careful consideration by sanitarians
and all milk authorities. Since the
Inauguration of milk and cream con-
tests, in 1906, this method of promot-
ing friendly rivalry has been recog-
niZed. At this time, besides State
and National contests, number Of
cities use such means for grading milk
supplies.
Milk and cream contests promote
competition among the dairymen, lead
to the grading Of milk supplies, and
through publicity encourage the eff
forts of producers as well as educate
the consumers regarding the value Of
good milk and where the best can be
obtained.

DAIRY
POINTS
GOOD OF BULL ASSOCIATIONS
Animals Are of Better Quality Than
Ordinary Run of Sires Pri-
vately Owned.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
A survey recently made in connec-
ton with the better sires-better
stock" campaign carried on by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture shows a general ratio of l bull
to every 1879 COWS. Experience, how
ever, in Pennsylvania, the state which
leads in the number of bull associa-
tiOnS, shows that 90 bulls are suffi-
cient for the 1904 COWS belonging to
members of the bull associations. or
an average, of about / bull for every
60 cows. These figures are taken from
the bull-association directory recently
issued by the dairy division, United
States Department of Agriculture.
If the members of these associations
owned their bulls individually, at the
usual ratio of l bull for every 1879
cows. they would need 296 bulls in
stead of SO. Yet the 90 bulls give the
required service as effectively as 296
