90 FARMERS ATTEND THE
R%OOSEVELTFARM SCHOOL

Ninety farmers interested in dairy.
ing attended the three dairy schools
conducted in the eastern section OF
Roosevelt county recently. Oscar
Tretsvan, dairy specialist of the Mon
tana extension service, was the prin-
cipal instructor, and H. G. BjOrge OF
Culbertson, practical dairyman, dis
cussed the milking machine phase OF
dairying.
Keen interest was stimulated and
timely and practical information was
given by both Mr.. Tretsvan and Mr..
Bjorge. One of the most interesting
features of the discussion was the
development of the dairy herd toge-
ther with the care and feeding of the
dairy cattle.
Mr.. Tretsvan advised any farming
community that is going into the
dairy business to start in with their
own grade herd and build it up by
the Importation of high class dairy
sires. He said that in the case of a
community going out to buy cattle
in carload lots, then it is advisable
to get young heifers rather than
plOu uCluS COW0s 11O FOo th6S
this would avoid to a large extent
the getting of culls from the man that
is selling the cattle. In many cases
where milk COWS Ire shipped in, IN
satisfactory results are due to defec-
tive cattle or cu1ls of other herds.
Mr.. Tretsvan also advised the i'm
portance of a man growing into the
dairy business rather than Jump
ing into it." He explained hat many
important things are essential in car
ing for, handling and feeding dairy
cattle. He emphasized how long it
had taken some of the most success
full dairymen in Wisconsin to learn
this lesson.
Many of the farmers who had the
privilege of attending these schools
were most pleased with them and in
dictated that they received a great
deal of practical information which
would apply in their W dairy opera
lions.
