WEISER HOLTEINS
PROVE PROFITABLE

Earnings of a herd of 16 Holstein
dairy cows owned by r. T. Davis at
Weiser, in the Weiser-Payette cow
testing association, make the in
| teresting substance of a placard in
the First National bank window at
Boise.
The summary covers 10 months
period In that time the cows pro-
dueed 21O,112 pounds of milk, and
7155 pounds of butterfat. Receipts
from sale of the products were 3d.
1850 Cost of feed was $1,309.S6
leaving a profit of $1,S79.66, or an
average of s117 per COW for 10
months.
A years output by the same herd
showed 1928 pounds of butterfat,
averaging 1855 pounds per COW. The
milk totaled 2S1,Se2 pounds, averag-
ing 14,46O pounds per cow.
A comparison of these figures with
those given by the United States de-
partment of agriculture as the aver
age production of all dairy cows in
Idaho is enlightening. That average
was $3.50 pounds of milk and 1877
pounds of butterfat.
Mr. Davis cows, therefore, |
achieved an average production
three or four times as large as the
average for the state. Dafrymen of |
the university extension division
cite this as an example of what care
full selection and scientific feeding
will do. One of Mr.. Davis cows,
Alba, holds the state record on a
seven-day test, and in the years test
produced Pill pounds of milk,
less than the University of
Idaho's record-breaking Holstein.

TWIN FALLS COMING
TO FRONT IN DAIRY
PRODUCTION, REPORT

Twin Falls is coming to the front
as dairying section, said George
Pearson, of the Magic Ciey, in an in
terview at the Bristol. Boise Valley
undoubtedly leads the rest Of south
ern Idaho at the present time in fine
dairy cattle but Twin Falls within
the next year or two expects to rival
the valley in both quality and guam
tity of dairy stock.
81 read the statement In the Cap
ital News by Mr. Wolf of the Kraft
cheese company with interest" said
Mr.. Pearson, I'VE in the Twin Falls
country are especially interested in
dairying because we are to have a
short cut outlet to the Pacific coast
and San Francisco in the near future
with the building of railroad from
Rogerson to Wells, New.
"The building OF this railroad is
practically assured now, according to
reports received in Twin Falls. And
with its completion we will have an
advantage over Boise in distance to
the coast. Once that railroad is
built the Magic City is bound to
grow.
Mr.. Kraft's cheese factory will
have plenty of Idaho cheese from
the Twin Falls country. We have the
best of climate and soil for alfalfa
and other products which go to make
a good dairy country and the farmers
Of Twin Falls are well aware of the
big opportunity offered in dairying."

From the Nugget
DISMISSED

The case of the state VS. Belya
Belknap and Ralph Willis, charged
with assault with deadly weapon
upon Bonifaei Bilboa at Hot Springs
ON April Sth last, occupied Justice
Cahalan's court Tuesday afternoon
with a night session and was con-
cluded Wednesday at noon, when
Judge Catalan dismissed the defend
.~Ns. holding that assault with a
deadly weapon had not been sus-
tanned by the evidence.
This trial grew out of a misunder-
standing between the defendants and
prosecuting witness, Bonifacio Bill
bao, in consequence of conflict OF
opinion bearing upon the identity
of two unbaptised lambs.
