BREED YOUR DAIRY COWS
FOR WINTER PRODUCTION

Agricultural College News Notes.
We read in the Bible Of the wise
virgin and the foolish one. We can
apply this story 10 our dairy business.
The wise dairyman breeds his cows in
November and December. the foolish
dalTyman in the summer months.
As a result, the wise dairyman has
a heavy flow Of milk in September and
October and thru the winter months
when the price Is at its highest. The
foolish daITyman's COWS freshen in
the spnng when the price is always
II the lowest. He believes he can gel
cheaper milk because he can just turn
them out on the grass in the spring,
whereas, in the fall he has to feed
them all winter. This is another ex-
ample Of false economy in the dairy
business.
The dairyman who has his cows
freshen in the fall will have a good
winters occupation. He will be en-
ployed al the time of the year when
milk Is high and when ne has little
else to do. His cows will be dry in
the hot summer months when ne will
have 10 devote great share Of his
time 20 irrigation, caring for and har-
yestng his crops; In fact this system
works admirably.
Now is the time TO breed your cows
for production next fall.
There is n man in a certain locality
who is not milking any Of his COWS
now. he is literally poverty stricken
and owes money heavily at the bank.
In the same locality is another man
who has practically the same number
of cows and they are all fresh They
will be dry next summer. This man
has no obligations 10 meet.
This Is one of the hundred little
things that go TO make success in
daiTying-one of the little things that
the prosperous farmer does not over
look.
Systematic your breeding opera
tions so as to have the cows freshen
in the fall.

FARMERS PROFIT
ON ROAD BUILDING

A land owner in a Southern state
had a large property of many acres,
beautiful house and a big peach
orchard in bearing. Family circum-
stances made il necessary for him to
sell his property, which was valued at
about hundred thousand dollars.
Putting it in the hands of some
reliable real estate men, the property
owner received several calls from
prospective purchasers. He met
these purchasers at the railway sta
ton, motored them six miles over q
good state road, and half mile over
very rough and bumpy dirt road to
his house.
None Of them purchased.
Acting on the advise of one of the
real estate men, the owner spent five
thousand dollars and made that last
half-mile as good as the state road.
The property was sold at q price
which included the cost of the road,
plus profit on the road, within one
month Of its completion.
What happens in one case will hap
pen in another. A good road greatly
increases the value of all adjacent
property, especially farms.

HOME CURING MEATS
AN ECONOMICAL PRACTICE

(From Curing Meats on the Farm,
By II. II. Smith,
On Colorado farms the proportion
OF meat cured is very small compared
with the amount eaten. Too many sell
the hign-grade meat they produce, Of
ten below cost OF production, and buy
the meat they eat at local markets,
usually at very high price. 1t would
be better for each farmer TO cure his
own meat on his own farm. thus se-
curing a better product at 4 much
cheaper price and having a continu-
ouss upply available at all times. Ger
talnly the home curing of meats
should receive attention on all farms.
Two days time during the slack part
OF the year will take care of the whole
years meat and lard requirements.
In curing meats several things must
be taken into consideration in order
that first-class product may be turn
ed out.
At the time of killing, the animal
must be well bled, as blood is one of
the best mediums for the growth O;
bacteria, and is very liable to cause
the meat TO spoil. II one has on
manu- iAA'ssA "iAiAlA - liON Ntli IL
should be the first to be used. ANY
meat which is beginning TO spoil or
has become rather old, should not be
Used for curing.
Since meats take on odors of for
eign substances rather easily, it should
not be stored in a room with gasoline,
coal oil or other volatile drugs. Meat
from animals suffering from any dis
ease, such as tuberculosis, measles.
etc, should not be used. Even If 1t
were possible TO keep it. it would not
be desirable for human food.
Meat from animals which were ex-
hausted at the time Of killing is unfit
for curing, as i, usually does not bleed
well, is dark in color and spoils easily.
Animals that are exhausted or over
heated should be rested for day or
two before killing.

RECORD BEST
TEST OF THE cows VALUE

Animal Husbandry Dept, Ag. College.
In the selection of dairy cows, there
are two methods which may be used.
BY far the best indication Of a dairy
cows ability for production, is her
record Of production as secured by
weighing and Systematically testing
her milk for butterfat content by the
Babcock test. Many cows have been
tested either by official test or
by the cow-testing association tester.
The time is coming when the majori-
ty of the more desirable cattle will be
so tested. As the Cow Testing Asso-
citation becomes more popular and
their work fully appreciated, more
cows will be under such inspection.
At the present time there are a
large number of cattle which have not
been tested or records kept upon their
production. Such cattle must then be
selected upon their form and conform
alton. Experience has taught the
breeders of dairy cattle that there
is certain form which is associated
with economic milk production.
Eckles gives the three following
points as those which should be par
ticularly emphasized in picking q
dairy COW:
/. The extreme angular form, car.
rying no surplus flesh, but showing
evidence of liberal feeding by {
vigorous physical condition.
2. The extraordinary development
of the udder and milk veins.
8. The marked development of the
barrel in proportion to the size Of
the animal.

MAKE AUTO TRUCKS PAY
JUST PROPORTION OF TAXES

Telluride Journal
More and more each year there is
agitation to make automobile trucks
and commercial bus lines pay more
taxes. Millions of dollars is eSpend-
ed annually on good roads in every
state in the union and these good
roads are used by gasoline propelled
carriers IN competition for the most
part with long-established railroad
lines. The railroad companies pay =
vast amount Of taxes on their mileage
IN every county in which they traverse
while automobile trucks and buses
u IS shown, do not pay anywhere near
their share of taxes in proportion TO
the railroads, at the same time getting
the cream Of the business.
This matter was brought to the
attention of many Grand Junction
business men recently BY William
Weiser, state highway commissioner
from this district and at present chair
man of the commission. Mr.. Weiser,
in speaking of the fact that trucks,
etc. are not paying their just proper
tion of the cost of road building and
maintenance said: "The time is COM
ing rapidly when they should do so;
that truck used for commercial pur-
poses should pay its proportion. There
is nothing fair in the railroads paying
large Sums for general road work and
trucks that are taking their freight
and passenger business use the roads
and do more damage to them than all
other autos and wagons combined, and
this fact is rapidly being recognized.
In Arkansas a one-ton truck that is
used for commercial purposes is pay
ing sI5 month in taxes or 5000 a
year, while in Colorado the same
truck can be operated for SIS year.
The time IL soon at hand when
change must be made.

MILK SUPPLIES MATERIAL
FOR GROWTH IN CHILDHOOD

Agricultural College ws-Notes:-
The importance of milk for the
growing child cannot be over-estimat-
ed. 1t supplies the best material for
growth for the infant as well as child
large quantity of building material
for bones and teeth. In comparing
the amount of bore found in one quart
Of milk with that of loaf of bread,
one would have TO eat eleven loaves of
bread TO equal the amount of lime in
one quart Of milk. Aside from the
value Of lime, the iron is readily used
to build blood and phosphorus in the
building of cells. The protein is easi-
ly absorbed by the body in tissue
building and in considering the ease
with which it is digested there is no
other protein that can be substituted
for that found in milk. The milk
sugar is the most desirable kind for
the small child, as it does not ferment
as does cane sugar.
Summing up the value of milk we
find it builds the bones, tissue, pro-
duces growth and maintains health az
no other single food can. The guam
tity most desirable for children to
consume daily is quart and never
less than a pint. The child that de-
sires tea or coffee as his beverage, is
really consuming harmful material
as these beverages stimulate the heart
action and dulls the appetite to the
extent that children will not eat saf.
ficient food to nourish the body. The
final advantage milk has over other
food, aside from the fact that it is the
most nourishing for youth is that /,
is possibly the most economical food

GASOLINE DRAWS DOWN
A TREMENDOUS TAX

According to statistics compiled

state OIL inspector. the great god of
gasoline exacts big financial toll
from his subjects.
During the month of August, 1923,
approximately 7,690,4S7 gallons of
gasoline were burned by motors in
the state of Colorado.
For the year 1923 up to October 1st.

IONS were consumed which, at the pres
ent two-cent tax, would ring the

Agricult1. College Poultry Specialist.
We have heard much Of better beef
steers and better dairy sires. A good
rooster is just as important to the
poultry flock To prevent inbreeding
it IS necessary to get new blood at
least every two years. Buy a new
cockerel and buy good one. Be
sure he comes from healthy stock
which has been bred for egg produc-
tion. Be sure he has vigor. wide
back, deep abdomen. long body, full
breast and proper development. Don't
buy a monorell or Gull at anv price.
Then mate him to dozen of your
