Dear Sirs: You will note herewith
the February report of the Mt. Hope
and Fennimore COW testing associd-
ton. Also accompanying articles.
/ Kindly publish.
| February fayors us with only 26
quality COWS, which of course, is due
mainly to its breyity. The high cow
! is owned by T. Wehrle and the high
herd by Albert Kasper, with an aver
age production of 800 pounds butter
fat. Ed Morse's herd ranked End
with 1872 and Lou Doeringsfeld and
Sons herd a close third with $50
lbs fat
The butter price is apparently not
coming up to any extent. Increased
consumption of all dairy products
should boost the price materially
There is too much Oleo used and milk
| is considered as luxury by too MANY
but if all those engaged in producing
milk would use more dairy products
it would result in a better market.
The production of a more sanitary
product than is generally the case,
together with an extensive advertis-
ing program, will undoubtedly mean
much to the future of the dairy in
dustry.
