STATES NEAR
ON COW.PATH
Dairy Business to In"
crease i'm Order to
Lift Mortgages in
Minnesota and Da
kotas

Among the outside visitors here
to witness the opening of John M.
Kelley and John Agee's +" Fun on
the FARM today is Charles f. Col.
lisson, agricultural editor of the
Minneapolis Tribune.
He arrived Friday from Chicago,
where he addressed the convention
OF the American Feed manufac-
turers' association on Golden Bu,
ter and Golden Dollar an illus
trated lecture on the benefits of
dairying in the Northwest.
1.-The whole Northwest, including
Minnesota, the Dakotas and Mon
tana," he declares, us thoroughly
aroused over the agricultural sit
uation in the wheat growing ar
cas-. This takes the form, not of
pessimism, as some would have us
believe but of hopeful and con-
structiye optimism.
Everywhere we go, on our
travels through this country, the
eyes of the farmers, business men
and bankers are turned toward
Wisconsin. With hardly a bank
failure in the past six years, due
to conditions, she is now the bright
| star of hope for us all. The agri-
cultural salvation of the North
west is going to come, not from
governmental price fixing, or ready
made remedies or radical legisla-
ton. 1t is already under way by
following the good example of
wisconsin dairymen; on the Cow
Path.
I'VE are on the right path, the
'cow-path in the northwest, and
we are making progress faster
than many of us realize, toward the
Wisconsin IDEAL She will have to
look out her laurels soon as first
dairy state in the country, for
Minnesota and North Dakota will
be crowding her for supremacy.
Next to wisconsin these two
states have made. the largest act
ual gain in dairy cows, since the
outbreak Of the World war.
at is a mistake to say that the
Northwest is broke. Let me give
you few figures about Mime
sofa. Our wheat crop in 1922 was
worth about s27,5OO,OOO. Now sup
pose the price had been fixed at
81 a bushel. Then it would have
brought $55, 100000.
THAT just about equals our
poultry crop, or $55,OOO,OOO only
one by-product ofsour dairy farms.
Our butter production, the largest
in all North AenEfca. exceeding
that all Canada, brought in S73,OO0,-
900, cash. or $23,000,O0O more than
81 wheat would have brought.
THE sum OF all of the dairy
food products amounted to $4,000.
600. in cash. II we add the value
of fertilizer, or s4o,OO0.OO0 more.
we have a total Of s1Ss,OOO,oO0,
that we got from giving 1900
900 dairy cows the Magnus Johnson
handshake night and morning.
Then we raised $26.OOo.oOO worth
Of pigs.
so the COW and sow and little
red hen brought us a grand total
OF $262, 100000, or 3 IL times our
