Look to the future Of your herd
the herd of tomorrow. and cease
working for the scrub bull and his
scrub progeny. and get 4 good pure-
bred bull that will work for you and
build up . high economical produc-
ing herd.
Study Of the yearly production re-
cords and feed costs Of 1904 cows in
a report Of the United States Dairy
Division shows the following results
Cows that produce 100 pounds Of
butterfat In . year. with an average
feed cost Of &34. gave 4 return Of SO
over cost Of feed cows that produced
200 pounds Of butterfat per year. with
an average feer cost Of e4G. gave 4
return Of $40 over cost Of feed; cows
that produced 400 pounds OF butterfat
per year. with an average cost Of &5s
for feed. give 4 return Of S74 ever
cost Of feed; cows that produced 400
pounds Of butterfat in q year with an
average feed cost Of $40 gave 4 return
Of sos over cost Of feed.
Thus II IL shown that a. production
Of fat increases. feed cost also increas
en-. but not In proportion. and the in
come over the feed cost also increas-
es. II costs twice ~ much to feed the
400 pound fat producing COW. but
she makes ten times as great 4 return
over feed cost. and what n left af-
