BURGER WALKS
OFF WITH BOTH
DAIRY HONORS

During the period September | to
September l6 some good records
have been made hy members of the
Imperial County Farm Bureau Cow
Testing Association. Albert Burger
of Alamitos again has the high cow.
A registered Holstein COW owned
by him freshened on Augusted 27
and she produced 1856 pounds but
terfat for the month of September.
This COW was fed hay and pasture
and grain ration of rolled barley.
Burger plans to continue feeding
this cow a grain ration for he be
lieves that it is necessary in order
to keep above 60 pounds per month.
Burger also had the best herd av-
erage during this period. He milk
ed l5 COWS whose average produc-
tion for the month was 1873 pounds
buttcrfat.
During this period, 81 herds con
tanning 1902 COWS were tested in
the Imperial County Farm Bureau
Cow Testing Association. Only 80
of these 1902 cows produced 40
pounds or more of buttcrfat for the
month The hot weather is no
doubt responsible for this low fig
urc. 1t is interesting to note that
five of these 32 cows. are owned by
A. Burger who feeds hay and pas
ture and has plenty of shade and
water for his herd. This empha
sizes the necessity for these things
during hot weather if high produc-
tion is to he maintained.
Is Cows Crlled
During the first half of Septem-
ber l3 cows were culled by members
of the Cow Testing Association. 1t
is encouraging to see that members
are using their COW testing records
and are disposing of the unprofit
able COWS i'll their herd.
Listed below are the owners of
the five highest producing COWS in
each unit. together with the produc
tion of their cows.
