Uses Modern Machinery
Realizing that hand milking is not
modern and that time is a factor on
the farm, modern milk barn has

machines At the present time fifty
cows are milked by machinery, and

of young milk strain heifers as can
be found on the project are shown
here. 1t is the intention to continue
in the development of this herd,
which within a short time is bound to
draw attention from others who are
looking for only the best in this line
1t is when the farm is left on the
rounds of inspection that due credit
is given this lady who counteraets
some of the failures that are admit

Hartman Dairy
Coming eff the bench and down
the river is the E. d. Hartman farm,
one of the best in the county. At
this place. where for many years at
tention was given exclusively to beet
stock, and it has only been within
the past few years that the Holstein
was admitted to the pastures and
fields, one of the best examples OF
modern dairying is found.
As on the Sutherland farm milk
ing is carried on by machinery, the
milking machine being looked after
by two men who are taking care OF
over fifty cows. Mr.. Hartman has
gone into the best lines of Holsteins
having imported most of his stock
from California and other points A
registered Holstein bull heads the
list, and from the appearance CT his
gets, the Hartman place will be one
of the best stocked in western Ne
yada within a very few years.
The Hartman place, which for
years has been known as the home
of the best beef produced in this end
of the state. in making room for the
dairy has done as much to advance
the interests of fine dairying as any
place in Nevada. Much credit is Civ
an Mr.. Hartman for his advanced
IDEAS in sticking to the game, in fact
he was fortified for the fluke in the
beef market by h. wing dairy herd
in working order when the prices
crumpled last fall.
Small herds of black and white are
noted all up and down the river and
there is hardly farm on the project
today but boasts of some of the high
grade stock that is being reared on
the project. A number of fine spec
linens of Jerseys are seen, but as a
class the Holsteins predominate, and
with the several strains of pure breds
in this valley the future of dairying
on better scale is assured.
Both Mr. Cooley and Mr.. Cline are
deyoting the major part of their time
to the development OF the dairy, as
past experience in every grass or hay
country shows that the one reliable
source of revenue is in the dairy.
Mr. Coley stated that he was more
than pleased at the advance being
made on this project. in fact he de-
elares that in a dairy line il is at the
head of the procession.
