In the beginning, says the bulIe-
tin, the farmers should not at
tempt to market any thing except
sour cream. As soon as the milk IS
drawn, it should be run through
the separator. The skinned milk
should be fed to calves, pigs and
chickens and part Of it used for
cooking, cottage cheese and other
forms of food in the family. In the
summer months, the cream should
be shipped every other day and
during the winter twice week.
The Georgia State College of
Agriculture has maintained a CO.

venience of farmers and iDstruc-
ton of students for the past six
years. There are other crcameries

DENMARK. DAIRY
COUNTRY WITH MOST
BANK ACCOUNTS.

Denmark Is a little country one
third the size Of the state Of Ge1r-
gia and 100000 more people than
Georgia, says the Quirmau Free
Press, yet she ships millions Of
pounds of food to England @za
other countries and 100000
pounds Of butter to the United
/ States.
Fifty years ago they were teach
ing the people Of Denmark voca-
tons, and agriculture was the pre-
dominant study they taught They
made it their Christian duty to
make good" butter. to love and
revere Danish history, language
and literature.
Today, they make their butter
and bacon in cooperative cream
cries and packing houses owned by
the producers and send to US three
million pounds Of butter per year
They have an education, system
that is a wonder and have the
greatest number Of saving accounts
in their banks of any people in the
world, according to population.
The dairy COW with her wonders
full wealth producing ability stands
out conspicuousIy among all farm
animals in the readjustment fol-
lowing the boil weevil. Carefully
conducted experiments have taught
that for each 100 pounds Of digest
able matter consumed the COW on
an average, will yield about 139
pounds of milk, containing about
Is pounds of solid practically all
of which is digetsible, according to
the State College of Agriculture.
The pig is able to produce 1916
pounds Of edible solids, for each
100 pounds of digestible dry mat
ter consumed. Chickens produce
81 pounds of edible solids in the
form of eggs from the same
amount of feed. The lamb yields
30 pounds and the steer 2.8
pounds of digestible solids.
The smaller farmer should start
keeping a few cows and marketing
the product in a systematic way SO
as to take a minimum of their
time and still give them the max
imum net in cash return. The
farmer with from 3 to Z COWS
should not consider himself a
dairyman, but rather he should
consider the small holding of COWS
a part of his general farm work.
Their principal function will be to
provide a profitable home market
for cheap home grown feeds, leave
the fertility on the farm and pro
duce enough ready cash to pay the
ordinary running expenses.
Such a development will require
a very small outlay Of additiona
capital. On most farms, there are
a few cows to which no particular
attention is being paid and nc
systematic effort made to convert
their products into cash. 1t may be
necessary to buy few cows il
local territory, but at this time
these can be had at a very small
cost. They should be regularly
, and abundantly fed on cheap home
grown feeds, The biggest invest
ment will be for a hand separator
This is most essential if the farmer
expects to get the greatest profit
out of his cows. 1t will also be
necessary for him to purchase :
