Every Dairyman Should
Know Profitable Cows

Every owner of dairy cows should
know if his cows are giving enough
milk or butterfat to make profit over
the cost of feed" says A. G. Baer,
professor of dairying at Oklahoma A.
and M. college. "a scale to weigh the
milk in the barn can be bought for 81
1t takes only q few minutes a day
extra time to weigh the milk from
each COW and write the weight on a
milk sheet tackled up in the barn.
Once a month a sample of milk can
be tested. Any creamery, ice cream
factory, or cream station will usually
be glad to do this testing. Every
school house can be equipped with a
tester at very little expense and the
boys at school can do the testing.
"A profitable cew should produce
5000 pounds of milk or 200 pounds of
butterfat in 300 days. Are your cows
all profitable? Why not find out? Is
milking dairy cows a business propo-
sition with you? If so, why not ap-
ply business methods? Write the
dairy department, Oklahoma A. and NJ.

Some ask why soy beans and corn
make economical gains on swine. The
reason is that they are a well-bal-

Hard Spring Wheat
Resistant to Stem Rust
Variety Known as Kota Has
Been Developed.

prepared by the United States Department
| of Agriculture.)
| A hard red spring wheat that Is re-
sistant TO the principal forms of black
stem rust has been developed In North
Dakota by the United States Depart
ment' of Agriculture and the North
Dakota agricultural experiment sta
ton. This wheat was first INTRODUCED
from Russia In 1903 by Prof. H. L.
Bolley, and is now known as Kota.
About 5000 acres Of Kota wheat were
grown in 1922, and much more this
year.
The particular virtue of Kota wheat
is Its resistance to the black stem rust
which is general throughout the hard
red spring wheat region. Its rust re-
sistance was not determined until at
ter the great rust epidemic of 1915.
1t Is also fairly resistant to drought
and outyields Marquis in North Da-
kota, averaging nearly three BUSH
els more per acre during the past five
years. 1t is bearded wheat which
ripens about as early as Marquis. In
milling and baking experiments con-
Quoted independently by the Depart
ment of Agriculture and the North
Dakota experiment station, Kota wheat
has shown results nearly equal to
those obtained with Marquis.
Experiments with Kota wheat have
been carried ON In number Of other
states as we'll as in North Dakota,
and the wheat was found best adapt
ed to the district where durum wheat
is extensively grown, Kota wheat could
replace much of the durum wheat now
grown in eastern North Dakota and
South Dakota with profit to both the
hard red spring and the durum wheat
industries, department workers believe.
This variety is recommended for
North Dakota and adjacent portions
Of neighboring states.

Immense Loss Caused by
Insect Attacks on Trees

Foresters and entomologists of the
United States Department Of Agricul-

by insect attacks upon living trees
and crude, finished, and utilized for
est products amount to $130,OOO,OOO
annually. A recent report touching
upon this and other forestry subjects
declares that these vast losses clearly
emphasize the need for educational
work and the development of syste-
matte control measures which now
are woefully inadequate.

Thunderstorm Doesn't
Sour Cream, Saws Iowa

Folks who are trying to deliver
sweet cream to their creameries COM
plain now and then that thunder
storms sour the cream.
The dairy department at Iowa State
college says that a thunderstorm will
have no effect on cream that is prop
erly kept at a low temperature. For
example, If milk and cream are kept
in cans in a cooling tank through
which flows all water pumped for the
live stock, thunderstorm will not af-
feet either Of them. The installation
Of such a cooling tank is not difficult
nor very expensive and 1t will make
possible added income from the dairy
herd through q better price for sweet
cream.
