Danger Of Too Many Dairy Cattle
Very Remote.

Vh0S ~ eAA SVlhk w IN0u w
Will the agitation for more dairy
cows be overdone? Can it be
overdone?
Two eminent authorities now
have come forward and an
swered the fear in some folks
minds that we might have
dairy cow stampede.
They are Hoard's Dairyman,
the veteran adviser of American
farmers and Col. w. E. Skinner,
General Manager of the National
Dairy Exposition to be held at
the Twin Cities October ia.
Hoard's is the paper founded
by the late Gov. w. D. Hoard of
Wisconsin, a pioneer in dairy
development. 1t says editori-
ally:
The Minnesota Leader ex-
presses great concern regarding
the effort to get the farmers of
the Northwest to keep more
dairy cows. 1t is afraid of a
dairy cow stampede. We con-
slider this paper is wasting it's
time sounding the alarm against
the dairy cow to the Northwest.
She never has stampeded any
country and has never been over
done in any state.
mo greater argument can be
made for the dairy cow than to
point to the sections where she
is kept in large numbers and
note how much better the farm
ers are passing through the
period of depression and read
justment than they are in those
sections following some other
form Of agriculture. The CON-
ing of the dairy COW in Mime
sofa was blessing and the
southern part of the state which
has been in dairying longer than
any other section is still enjoy
ing greater prosperity than any
other portion.
Since the beginning of the
dairy industry a few timid souls
have been fearful that dairying
would be overdone. They have
pointed out that if every farmer
kept dairy cows, dairy products
would become so cheap it would
become Improbable to milk
cows. These men are undoubt-
eddy right in their contention,
but where they fail in their
reasoning is that not every far
mer will accept dairy COW. We
are of the opinion that the Min
nesota Leader has counseled
with fear and not with facts"
Colonel Skinner was inter
viewed by a newspaper reporter
at his office in st. Paul on this
subject. He said.
Notwithstanding the growth
of Cow Test Associations, the
spread of boy and girl calf clubs
and all our propaganda for pro-
duction, we failed to overtake
the increasing market for dairy
products. Education in health
and nutrition, the availability Of
clean, palatable dairy foods in
almost every public eating place
and the advertising campaigns
of such producers .as the milk
men and ice cream manufacture
ers and the steady growth in
|population-all these operate
to keep the demand we'll ahead
of the supply. Over-production
is possibility so remote that no
man now living needs to worry
about it,"
Increase in the consumption
of butter has followed increased
production this year as well as
in the past, according to Gilbert
Gusler, writing in The Farmer.

GOLD MINES ON FARMS

More Captain Kidd" NONSENSE! 1t
develops that a preacher, with two
helpers, dug up whole sixty-acre
farm in New Jersey in quest of pi
rate gold. He didn't find any gold.
And yet there was buried treas
ure on that farm. There is on every
farm. All that is necessary to get it
is to do the digging Systematically,
in proper season, accompanying the
process by putting seed corn into the
ground, and then reaping the crop
when it is ready. The delving pas
tor, if he had practised this method
assiduously for the same period he
spent in futile spade-work, might
have had by this time a, bigger chest
of gold than any pirate ever buried
on the Jersey coast.
AS a matter of fact the gold bus
mess, legitimate and illegimate, has
been tremendously over-played. All
the gold ever ferried from the New
World across the Spanish Main was
worthless than the fish swimming in
that same Main, and worth a great
deal less than the useful native pro
ducts that might have been carried
home to the Spanish people, from
Mexico and Peru. All the gold ever
dug in California is trivial compared
with the wealth produced there
when men turned from placer-min-
ing to blowing. Mountain streams
run into irrigation bitches have
made more money than they ever
made when their sole use was wash
ing yellow dust out of sand.
Every man who owns farm owns
"a gold mine. Every man who owns
his own home has buried treasure
in his back yard.

DRIFT OF POPULATION

The new census seems to show in
an even greater degree than previ-
Gus one that the drift of population
is toward the larger centers, rather
than toward the small communities
and the farm. Fifty years ago we
were an agricultural country, more
than half the people living either
on farms or in the small towns. To-
day nearly sixty per cent live in the
large cities, leaving but forty per
cent for rural population. The rea-
sons for this are many, yet probably
much lies in the effects of education
in our schools. Who does not re-
member that the hero of most of the
stories We read in our school books
was boy who went to the city and
made success? ALI the thoughts
of the young were pointed cityward,
and now we are reaping the natural
fruits. 1t is time to set out the ben
efits of the country as the place of
residence; the greater freedom, the
pleasanter surroundings, the pure
air. the communion with nature, the
fresh fruits and vegetables-and
Other advantages too numerous to
recount in one article, The young
man or woman who keeps close to
Mother Nature is going to get more
out of life than his city cousin. &c

BETHURUM NAY BE REPUBLI
CAN CANDIDATE

yudge B. j. Bethurum. of Som
erset, now making his home in Lex
ington to discharge his duties as
assistant prohibition director for
Kentucky and legal adviser for the
department, is doomed as the
candidate of the Republican party
for the United States Senate to op-
pose Senator A. o. Stanley, Demo
crat, in the next Senatorial cleo
tion.
Judge Bethurum recently admit
ted that number of his friends had
asked him to make the race, but he
declined to comment on their action.
Judge Bethurum has had a long
political career and one of few re-
versals. He was candidate for the
Republican nomination for the Sen
ate against DR.. B. L. Bruner, of Lex
ington, six years ago, but was de-
feated. DR.. Bruner in turn was de-
feated by Senator Stanley. The de-
feat Of Judge-Bethurum at that
time is attributed by many Of his
friends to split in the party.

That sounded interesting.
Perhaps men have better teeth
than women. Probably too much

COOPERATIVE SELLING GROWS
IN KENTUCKY

Many cooperative selling organi-
cations which have been established
during the past few years indicate
that farmers of the United State
have realized the value Of co-opera-
tive marketing according to a new
circular on this subject written by
C. B. Jesness, chief of the markets
section of the Kentucky Agricul.
tural Experiment Station, which has
just come of the press.
Outlining methods by which such
organizations can be of help to
farmers the author says. "They can
grade and standardize products of
members and sell them on the basis
Of grade, encouraging the promotion
of high quality products. Combin-
ing products from a number of farms
gives a volume of business which
warrants the employment of trained
and capable men to study market
conditions and sell the product for
members. The bargaining power Of
strong organization also is much
greater than that of an individual
buyer.
'This does not mean that organi-
zation will enable farmers to over
come economic laws" the author
continues. "Organized farmers can
not expect their organization to OBJ
tain unreasonably high prices for
their products since the purpose of
Organization is to sell the product
in the best possible manner possible
and to keep the members acquainted
with market conditions and demands
so that they may plan their farming
operations intelligently.''
Volume of business, good manage
ment, business methods, adequate
finance and membership loyalty are
pointed1out as the important re-
quirements for success in a cooper
alive marketing association. A copy

more Shakespeare to them---they can't

them very much, beautiful creatures as
