PUREBRED SIRES
USED In CAMPAIGN

The campaign Of the government to
double the milk production of the
country by the use of purebred sres
has been endorsed by officials of the
North Dakota State Fair at Fargo
July II to %.
The biggest dairy cattle snow in the
history Of the fair is promised to this
campaign, according to the fair man.
agement. Premiums aggregating over
$4,75O, have been set aside for the
show. The breeds for which prizes
are offered include: Holsteins, Jerseys,
Guernseys, Ayrshires, Brown Swiss,
and milking Shorthorns. Fully $50
animals are expected by Samuel F..
Grabbed, director in charge of the
dairy cattle department.
Statistics just furnished the fair
prove that the production of milk and
butterfat could be doubled in from
three to five years, if pure-bred sires
could be placed at the heads of all
the herds of common cattle Such an
increase in production of milk each
year would furnish every home with
three extra quarts of milk q day. 1t
would provide each home with about
60 more pounds of butter a year than
it is getting now.
1t is the contention of dairymen that
milk is the most economical food pro-
duced. In comparison with round
steak at % cents pound, milk is
worth 20 cents quart in food value T;
when eggs are worth 80 cents dozen
milk is worth q cents quart; when
bacon is worth so cents a pound, a
quart Of milk is worth "a cents.
Milk is food of tremendous value
not only to grown persons but little
children. In several countries in Eu=
rope a big percentage of the children
have died of disease and starvation,
because practically all the cows have
been killed, and there is little milk to
be had. If obtainable, boys and girls
should drink milk every day at all
meals.
Entries for dairy cattle close on July
10, after which none will be accepted.
