Among the cows tested in the I'M
perial County Farm Bureau Cow

iOd November | to IL there were
two cows which produced over 80
pounds of buttcrfat for the month

Der |. 1929 only two cows have been
tested which have produced over 80

ord that has been made by any cow
in Imperial County since testing be-
gan December /, 1922. The other
COW making over so pounds of but
terfat was owned by A. Burger Of
Alamitos. She is a grade cow
which produced 80 pounds butterfat
for the month
During the period November l to
II. 100 cows were testing in the
cow testing association. One hun.
dred and one of these 100 cows pro-
duced 40 pounds or more of butter
fat. The largest number of 40
pounds cows in one herd was Is. A.
Burger of Alamitos milked "a cows
and Is of these produced 40 pounds
or more of butterfat for the month.
Burger also had the best herd aver
age for this period. His "a cows
averaged 45 pounds Of butterfat
each for the month. He fed pas
ture, hay and rolled barley.
Ten unprofitable cows were re-
ported culled by dairymen whose
herds were tested during this per-
iod.

To the Editor:
1 am glad to see interest awakening
in civic affairs generally and especial
ly am pleased with the splendid spir-
it of cooperation existing between our
city school board and city commits
sioners.
With the school and city taxes sep
arated and an authorized increase
voted, the public demand for better
paid teachers in our public schools is
now possible of fulfilment. i. with
thousands of others wish to add my
approval to the increase Of $50 voted
each teacher by the board last week
and hope that now, the taxing power
having been increased. they will be
paid even greater salaries and in
keeping with the Importance of their
position.
The school tax for San Antonio is
much lower than that of other cities
its size.
hope that when cafetcrias are all
installed, and other requirements
needed are met. including this long
overdue raise in teachers salaries,
that our board will find it possible ia
have one good square meal served
free each day TO each pupil, each
teachers as well and still remain with
in the tax limit of one dollar which
the hoard is now allowed to levy.
