Improve Delaware Dairy Stock.

The advice Of the hend Of the Holstein-
Friesian Association Of America TO
gathering at Newark shoit time ago, TO
increase the millS-prcducing value OF cows
through better herd sirea should be foi-
lowed by every dairyman in the state.
In discussing the profits Of dairyln", DC
declared that unless COW pives SIX thou-
sand pounds of milk year she was not
paying her expenses, anything below that
being less Figuring on n quart oi mix
weigh n two pounds il may ho seen thh.
COW must give almost "a quarts day
for every ono Of the 365 days IN the year
to yield any profit to her owner. and OF out
few cows, as the average goes, attain TO
those figures, it may be seen uiscened that
the hope of the dairyme is to breed ana
develop their stock for more milk.
II is obvious that there has been great
Improvement in the quality OF the DAIRY
herds in this section OF the state IN the
last decade, but evidently there must be
further advancement in that direction II
a
not operated at n loss. We have several
dairles Of tho finest stock on lands ADA
cent to this city that have supplied sires
for many of the other daiIies ard conse-
qucntly have done much in the improve
ment Of the cows themsel, &C. but they
have done still more than this by Illus
trating that n cow---to cite one example Oh
fered by local dairy-of the Holstein-
Frcsian variety has been developed go
that she yields more than double the
requisite 5000 pounds year, but she re-
quires the most painstaking attention and
is housed under the best conditions.
However, it should not be impossible
to breed COWS that will give from 1000
to 5000 pounds of milk a wear, and cvi-
IDENTIFY this is what our dairyUcn must aim
at if they make the business profitable.
Our farmers, indeed must extend this
increased production theory - every
branch Of their work 10 is making two
blades Of grass grow where but one grew
before that Will count in the farming Ct
the future, and operations must be cen
Quoted with that aim paramount.
Mr. Aiken paid Delaware soil the com
rliment Of declaring it 70 be equal N
fertility 10 any he had ever examined
and he emphasized the great advantage
the dairymcn of this vicinity enjoyed
above 50 many others in being close 70 big
cities, where they could always find mar
Ike for their perishablo products.
State superintendent Of Agriculture
Benson sent a letter 10 the Newark meet
ing accomplishing the financial difficulties
tho farmers are facing, as the result Of a
sharp decline in all their products, and
urged among other things the establish
ment Of State Bureau Of Markets.
through which the farmer could ad-
vantaseously sell his crops and other prod
uce, and through which he also could
obtain his supplies eliminating the middle
man in both transactions This seems
the most vital step for the farmer and'i'

WHY FRANCE Is Baking.

The United States is apt to become I'M
Datient over the delay in fixing the Ger
man reparations so that Germany can
get back to work That delay Is due to
France, which is IN no mood to fix them
nj a sum that Germany can pay.
II is easy for America 10 see the defects
If this sort Of policy and to point out that
France and everybody else would be
better off materially if the indemaities
would be settled and put out Of the way.
Easy because America is protected by
\ 3.OO0mile ocean barrier
France is not thinking At present m
terms of material prosperity She is think
ing in terms of national safety America
and England regard the war rs terrific
explosion which is now over SO that husl-
ness can be resumed as usual France
looks on the war as merely one episode IN
