Milk Consumption Doubles
 During 1923, Reports Show

in this was, but nj the main the in- creasing production is traceable to finer stock.
 Another thing that interests all of us," MT. Bulmer said, lis that much of this better stock is of Alabama origin. Pure bred stock is being bought from Alabama stockmen, but some of it, it is true, comes from Tennessee and the famous Wisconsin herds. All dairy stock introduced in Jefferson county is tested before ad- mittance to the dairy herds supply ing the city.
 Jerseys and high grade jerseys constitute the majority in the herds. The scrub COW is fast disappearing There is about one per cent of Hol- steins in the animals supplying Bir- mingham, less than one per cent of Alderneys. The remainder are Jer- seys of one sort or another.
 The stock standard Is much high CT than was the case a year or so ago and is stadily rising. obviously indicated by the increase in the sup ply of milk"
 Increased confidence in the dairy men and their market products is held responsible for the rapidly in- creasing demand.
