DAIRY
POINTS
IMPROVE CAPACITY OF COWS
Testing Associations Aid Dalryman In
culiIng Out Undesirable Animals
In Herd.

The chief agencies for improving the
capacity Of dairy cows are the cow
testing association and testing for ad-
vanced registration, according to state
dairy extension specialists. The
former aids the farmer-dairyman to
size up his herd. Gull out the undesir-
able animals and get his dairy upon
a business basis. The testing of pure
bred cows for advanced registry sorts
out the most desirable cows and bulls
for the Improvement of the breed, and
furnishes large numbers of bulls that
are available to r-dairymen for
mating with cows selected through the
use of the COW testing association.
In the Holstein-Friesian Register,
the largest Of all the breeds, $4,000
cows and 5000 bulls have been adj
mitted. Among these animals are
found cows which have produced over
1000 pounds butterfat In one year.
The highest yearly record for butter
is held by May Walker Ollie Home
stead who produced 1922 pounds.
The COW holding the worlds milk
record is Segis Pietertje Prospect.
which In one year produced 4.872 gal
Ions, or an average Of over 81 quarts
a day.

totaled 70 and 80 cars, respectively.
In addition, three mixed shipments
were made.
The Illinois Fruit exchange was Or
ganized In 1921 by county farm bureaus
In cooperation with the fruit and veg
etable marketing department Of the
Illinois Agricultural association. Coun-
ties now having local organizations
are: Adams. Clay, jackson, Jefferson,
johnson, Marion, Massac, Pulaski, st.
Clair, Union and Williamson.
The work Of directing the carlot
sale and distribution is done at the
headquarters In Centralia. I'll.
Assembling OF the products was ac-
compllshed through the local organi-
cations In the various counties. A ma
jority Of these locals had their own
packing houses, including In their
equipment. modern sizing machinery.
Standardization and grading Of the
fruit was done at the local warehouses
according to accepted Illinois and gov
eminent regulations.
Adoption Of the special trade brand
"Illini." which appeared on trade
marks on all the fruit shipped by the
exchange, gave distinction and valu-
able advertising to the fruit shipped
and a good name was made BY the
product In all markets where shipped.
Wide distribution Of products IL one
Of the big reasons attributed to the
success Of the exchange during 1922.
Formerly It was the practice Of the
majority of growers to consign to Chi
cago. causing a flooding Of that mar
ket, and consequently low prices
With such distribution system a.
was built up, fruit was kept away
from Chicago preventing that market
from being flooded.
In one vicinity, the growers belong
ing to the local sold Strawberries for
a net average Of 1852 per crate while
a large grower In the vicinity, not sell

product for $1.97h. or SAN cents less
per crate.

SEE DAIRY PROFITS IN 1929
Good Year 10 Seen Ahead by Iowa Ex-
pert, but Much Depends on lndi-
vidual Farmer.

From all indications, farmers who
milk cows In 1923 have a good year
ahead, says G. B. Finley, an Iowa dairy
expert. However, profits will depend
much upon the individual farmer.
The extent to which 1t will be pos
sible to cash in on the good year ahead
will depend largely upon ten things.
which are as follows:
1. Get a field Of alfalfa or clover
large enough to supply the herd.
2. Have ample silage.
8. Feed rations suited to the cows
needs.
4. Weed out the improbable cows.
8. Weigh the milk each day.
9. Feed according to production.
Z. Make your barn more sanitary
and comfortable.
8. Supply the best quality Of prod
uct to the consumer and the creamery
possible.
9. Put your herd on business basis
by being in a COW testing association.
10. Buy a sire from good producing
purebred ancestry.
