Month of Test.
WILL0WBROOK LEAD

The first months testing in. the K
nosha County Cow Testing Associ
ton has brought out some interestir
results. The Willowbrook Sanitoriu
Farm herd, consisting of eight head
grade Guernseys, received the highe
average in the county for the mon
of July, with an average milk produ
tion of 693 pounds, testing 3.8 per &c.
or an average of 27.5 pounds of f
per COW.
Holloway Brothers herd of gra,
Jerseys was second high, with an ave
age of 575 pounds of milk testing 4.
per cent, or 27.2 pounds of fat. TT
is the same herd that had high averas
for the year 1920 in the recently di
banded Racine Kenosha Associatio
It is a good example of what the
of Dure-bred bull and cow-testir
records can do in increasing the pr
duction of a herd.
All Progressive Members.
One thing which this new associ
ton can boast of is a bunch Of pr
gressive members. 1t was found tn
at the end of the month every memb
of the association except one w
using pure-bred sire, and all exec
che have silos. 1t is hoped that in
short time this one scrub sire will ;
disposed of, leaving 100 per cent pur
breds in Kenosha C. T. A. No. 1. -
The demand for testing has been
great since the first association h.
been formed that the second one f.
Kenosha county will be formed son
time this fall. Anyone who wishes
put his dairy business on a SCUM
basis, which eliminates guess work an
permits him to conduct his work wit
future improvement in view, ca
make arrangements to join Cow Tes
ing Association No. 2 by communists
ing with the County Agriculture
Agent.
