DAIRY EXPERT
TALKS In CLOVIS
Mr.. H. s. Mobley Advocates Dairy
Cow as Relief for Farm Financ-
es in Address Wednesday.

A fair audience turned out We'd
nesday afternoon to hear H. S. Mob
ley discuss the Importance Of dairy
ing. The farmers are very busy just
now in fighting weeds that grow lux
uriantly and in planting crops.
Mr.. Mobley discussed the dairy in
dustry on the farm from the farmers
standpoint in very practical and in
telligent way. He said there was no
great mystery about dairying. Sue
cess meant just plain application of
ordinary horse sense.
Mr.. Mobley emphasized the import
ant place of dairying in the farm pro-
gram. Without cows, chickens and
pigs it was not possible to produce
the returns that farming warranted.
He illustrated what COW would pro-
duce in a year in comparison with
wheat. The income was regular and
certain. The frost would catch the
apple, the peach and other fruit, but
never the COW. Floods would destroy
the crops, but the COW would go or
milking. Droughts might curtail thC
crops, but there was always something
to eat for the COW to turn into money
Mr.. Mobley is strongly in favor q
testing out each COW. The method L
simply through the scales in weighing
the milk and Babcock tester. Meth
er process is difficult and takes bu
little time.
The skim milk has great value il
the chicken yard and will insure
steady income from well selecte'
flock Of hens. Mr.. Mobley has in
teresting figures as to the value 0
the skim milk fed to laying hens.
| Mr.. Mobley discussed the differ
ence between beef breeds and ordi
nary stock. The two are distinct an,
one cannot be turned into the other
at will. He advises to begin witt
whatever dairy cattle are at hand an,
breed up by the use of the best dair!
males. He believes in growing u
with the industry. Everyone mus
learn from experience. But it i
necessary to stick to the game. A
times prices fall. This should no
discourage. But when times are ba,
prepare for the better times that al
ways follow.
Will H. Pattison, president Of tn,
Curry County Farm Bureau, presid
ed. After the lecture County Agen
Hollnger brought the matter of ap
pointing committee to promote th
organization of a dairy association
On motion the president was author
lied to appoint a committe of three

mittee.
This meeting will be helpful to fur
ther dairying in Curry County. Thi
section is is exceptionally well adapt
ed to diversified farming with liv'
stock as an important part of tn,
program. This includes milk cows
hogs and chickens. It is always pos
sible to grow feed to care for the liv,
stock. In other words, the live stocl
