Is taken considerable interest in fr
oppressive farming during the past =
ar, left here last week for Norris ri
Wn, Pa, where he expects to buy a OF
rload of first class milch COWS
lich are to be distributed among the
rmers who need additional COWS to N
crease their output on milk for the
lssau cooling station which business
IN and progressive farmers believe
II be money making proposition
: the local farmers when they get it
ing in good shape and are able to
tain first class price for their
TX. Many Of the farmers at this
le are not in shape to get the best
suits from their COWS, as last year
s very poor year for clover and
~ few raised any COWS peas to sell
very scarce article in this locality.
rmers haven't even any for their
n use. In order for COW to pro-
,e a goodly quantity of high grade
k, when there is no pasture it is
olutely essential that they be fed
milk producing dry feed, such as
' peas or good clover hay of some
iety or other These COWS, if they
purchased, provided they stand an
pection, will be sold to those far
rs who want them, at cost. The
Y one idea the bank has in mind is
lelp make the milk station q grand
cess, thereby increasing the wealth
the community and incidentally
. the farmers an opportunity to re-
e a regular monthly income check
their milk.
