The real thing in the Greenwich vii
lage studio now is the billy goat. Those
who profess to know 60 so far as to
state that the village girls, when they
60 out to show their smocks and
bobbed hair, won't carry a Peke or a
Pom, but will lead goat. Those who
have them say they are easier to care
for than a dog, the upkeep not being
so heavy, due to goats digestion, and
that they are kind and companionable.
There are other advantages, that OF
garbage disposal, even to cans, being
one. Then again, the owner of goat.

never be lonesome. A little observation
from the Sixth or the Ninth avenue

BUTTERFAT YIELD PROFIT
ABLE STATISTICS SHOW
Poor Mixer Takes All Profits From
Dairyina as Business.

The farm management division at
University Farm has received letter
from a Minnesota farmer who con-
tends that butterfat prices have de,
clined to a point where dairying is no
longer the profitable industry COM
monty portrayed by agricultural writ
ers and newspaper editors Of the day.
He submits table of receipts and ex.
penses for the current year which
shows that the return per hour Of man
labor in caring for the dairy was only
liz cents an hour His creamery has
averaged 80 cents per pound tor but
terfat during year back.
This particular farmer wants to be
SHOWN" In personal letter to
Prof. Geo. A. Pond, co-author with
William l.. Cavert of Special Bulletin
No. 81 entitled, 1.-THE Dairy Cow as
Market for Labor" he asks, where is
the silver lining to the cloud?"
In his reply Professor Pond submits
two statements Of dairy costs on a
COW basis, the figures for which were
gathered in the cost of production
studies by university men on two
neighboring farms in Steele county in
| 1921. Farm No. l, where the dairy
COWS averaged 233& pounds of butter.
| fat, gave returns of So cents per hour
of man labor On farm No. 2, where
the average butterfat production was
as low as 100 pounds, the return per
hour of man labor was only II cents.
Calling attention to the much larg-
er return per hour from the high pro-
ducing COW, Professor Pond says: 1T
would seem to me that this is the sill.
yer lining to the cloud that you see
hanging over the dairy enterprise.
! do not believe that the common aver
age cow ever has paid good wages for
the time spent on her for any consid'
cradle length of time, and I doubt ii
she ever will. The rewards of bust.
ness go largely to the more efficient
producer and dairying is no exception. u
Professor Pond holds that the dairy
business is about as profitable right
now as it has been at any time for the
last ten years. Cost accounting inves'
shown that tn dairy business on the
/ average farm has never been the
source of large profits.
IF communities have continued to
maintain evidence Of prosperity in
spite of low returns from the dairy
he says, 1T is because the dairy man
has profited even on low return pei
hour for his labor for the reason that
much Of that labor is performed at a
time when he has no other work to do
1.-THE dairyman may also be accept
ing less than the market rate Of inter
est on his investment and less than
the market price for feed. He may be
pasturing his cattle on rough land
that would otherwise have no value. 1t
is these facts that have enabled him
to enjoy a fair income even though the
! cost accountant has told him that he
is producing at loss."

Vigorous Rodent War Urged.

Damage by smaller rodents on stock
ranges, while not SO spectacular as
that by wolves, mountain lions and
coyotes, in some cases more than
equals that of the predatory animals
according to DR.. A. X. Fisher of the
United States biological survey. There
should be closer cooperation, particu-
lurly in the matter Of appropriations,
between the federal and state govern
ments, so that the largest amount
available from both sources may be
obtained, he says.
It is declared that If the prairie
dog alone were exterminated 4,UO,OOO
more cattle and 100000 more sheep
could be raised because of the increase

Pertinent Pointers for Practical Farmers
p,.,.,.d bx d. A.e.lu1L Unt",sv Of Aanneosa
A SILO on EVERY
FARM IN MINNESOTA
Corn as SiIaQe Makes e54 Lbs. Nu'
trients Per Acre.
Prepared BY de ARscnle',ral

A silo on every farm in Minnesota
would mean great saving of feed
and in feeding values. From 60 to IS
per cent of the feeding value of corn
Is in the grain; the rest is in the for
age. Staff men of the division of agri.
cultural education at University Farm
say that one acre will produce so bush
els Of corn containing 2,237 pounds
of digestible nutrients, or ten tons of
silage containing 1850 pounds of d.
gestible nutrients. If per cent be
lost in the silo, there will still be left
1901 pounds of high nutritive matter.
This means that 1854 pounds Of d.
gestible nutrients per acre are saved
by ensiling the corn CROP" say the
staff men of the division. "This saw
ing will keep thousand pound animal
100 days and is about equal to one
ton of timothy hay. There is less loss
in fermentation than when cured by
dry fodder"
A good silo saves room because a
ton of silage occupies only SO cubic
feet of space, while ton of hay fills
400 cubic feet. It also saves labor and
provides a summer feed to take the
place of or supplement soilage crop
or pastures. The desirability of silage
as feed is no longer questioned. 1t
Is succulent and palatable and helps
to keep the animal in prime condition.
One distinctive feature is that it is
handled and consumed without waste.
Si2os should be of strong construc'
ton. AS the silage settles it exerts
great pressure upon the walls. Inter
ior walls of silos should be smooth.
If they are rough, air spaces will = be
left as the material settles and the
silage will become moldy. Moisture
must be kept in and air out. This
means that the walls must be water
and air tight Experience has shown
that the round silos are stronger, more
economical of space, and keep the sill
age better. y.
The silo should be as frost resistant
as possible. Place the silo on the
south side Of other buildings. The
location has more to do with frost
than the material.

AS soon as cold weather has de-
stroyed the green vegetation upon
which mice and rabbits feed, they will
be looking elsewhere for succulent
food. Young fruit trees are in dan.
ger, after these pests have once tasted
the juicy bark. One rabbit can girdle
a dozen trees in day unless precau-
lions are taken to prevent it. Rabbits
attack trees that are from one to six
years old; mice injure trees of any
age. It is better and cheaper to pro-
tect the tree trunks this fall than to
try to save girdled trees next spring
by bridge grating, is the advice of hor.
ticulture specialists at the agricultural
college.

Don't send the promising purebred
bull to the butchers block before he
has had a chance to show, through his
daughters, his quality. This is the
warning of men at the state college of

young bulls only to find that some Of

BETTER CREAM, BETTER PRICE.

Reports from so Minnesota COOP
erative creameries for September
showed a difference of Is cents a
pound in prices paid the farmers by
the creameries for butterfat. This was
partly due to the difference in the vol.
ume of business transacted, but chiefly
on account of the difference in price
received by the creameries for butter,
this difference amounting to eight and
a fraction cents per pound.
1.-THE sad part of this loss in the
price of butterfat is that it is entirely
unnecessary" says A. J.. Mcclure in
the September report as published by
the agricultural extension service OF
the university. There is no difference
in the value of butterfat for butter
making when it is produced by the
COWS. The loss in quality takes place
in the handling of the milk and cream
on the farm, in the delay before it is
delivered to the creamery and in the
workmanship in the creamery. Mix
should be run through clean separa.
tor, the cream cooled Immediately after
separating and kept where the air
is pure and free from doors until it is
delivered to the creamery.
For the highest quality butter,
cream must be delivered every other
day. This can be done by cooperation
between a number of farmers in haul
ing their cream. The price is con-
stantly widening between good and
Door butter. The greatest danger ia
the success of cooperative creameriel
is the manufacture of low grade but
