A marked increase in the dairy

ume OF business despite the flood
Many farmers who have of late realiz-
ed the value OF dairying have increas-
ed and improved the conditions or
their milk producing resources. Mr..
Smith went on to say. and the result
is that many who would not have been
able to continue farming otherwise
have been able to tide themselves
over until the marketing of the beet
crop this fall.
BY experimentation with various
kinds of grass in the region farmers
have developed food for the cattle
that is inexpensive and productive OF
milk. The grass is planted often IN
the spring after a crop of corn, and
when the corn is cut the grass is
high enough to feed the cows. and
the same seeding often lasts several
years thru the rotation of crops. This
supplies sufficient nourishment for the
producing OF good test milk.
The sugar beet crop is reported to
be exceptionally good this year. and
the crop of 39.95S acres of fair yield
of beets is thought to be a gain over
last year. in spite of the adverse con-
ditions faced at the beginning of the
summer. All records of the yield of
