and distributed together with a regis,
tered bull calf of that breed and ono
of the Holstein breed for hoys' anG
girls club work. and some grades
of the Guernsey breed. Every month
grades of the principal dairy breeds
are brought into the state and num-
erous enquiries are sent to the Div
ision of Dairying, asking for inform
alton in regard to buying and ship
ping.
The Chief of the Division of Dairy
ing has made several trips east Tor
the purpose of buying for beginners
in the business of breeding dairy
cattle. He secured the initial ship
ments for all of those places men
toned and has brought in many 9TH
ers besides. The State Department
of Agriculture donates it's services
for the purpose.
Advanced registry work has been
started in some portions of the state
and some very creditable records
are being made. M. d. Fitzgerald,
with Guernseys; R. d. Daniels, with
Jerseys; and David Lea & Son, with
Holsteins, are doing good advanced
registry work in Ravalli county, in
the Bitter Root valley. The Guernsey
breeders of Plains, in Sanders coun-
ty, have made a most suspicious be-
ginning with quite a number of
their breed.
Cow testing associations have been
organized in three counties at least.
Ravalli, Flathead and Cascade coun-
ties each have an organization.
There is a marked increase in the
volume of dairy production in Mon
cana in 1928, over 1922 and the pre-
yious years. The amount of cream
cry butter produced in 1922 was
7,022,338 pounds. The first nine
months of 1928 showed 7,815,847
pounds. Approximately 100000
pounds of cheese and 100000 gal
Ions of ice ear we're made in 1928.
The whole amount of creamery but
ter made in 1928 was about 10000
900 pounds; or an increase of ap-
40 per cent over 1922 or
any previous year. Gratifying as
showing is, it takes second place
to the improvement in quality which
came in the last six months of 1928.
In May, the scores of butter sent by
the creameries of Montana to the
U. S. government laboratory at
Salt Lake City, showed only one
scoring above 90, that samp-
scoring 91.5. There were seven
5een samples scored. Montana, of
eleven states reporting, stood tenth,
Wyoming alone being below it. In
November, 1928, six months later,
Of twenty-five samples scored, six
scored go or better, fifteen scored

Since 1911 the movement of better
dairy cattle into the state has in
creased steadily. There were very
wonderful work in increasing the in
terest in dairying in that county, and
has distributed several carloads of
pure breds and grades of their breed.
Early in 1923, the county agent of

Several were brought to the state
that year and in 1912 there were
quite a showing of pure breds of the
different breeds at the state fair.
From that time ON, the movement
has gained in volume and in import

of the state. Registered and high
grade dairy cattle have been brought

Commercial Danying Is Fast Becoming One of Monta1as Most
Profitable ndusrjes-Clnmat and Forage Enhance Production

(By Geo. H. Webster, Chief of the
Division of Dairying, of h De-
partment of Agriculture, State OF
Montana.
(From N. P. Ry. Booklet. "Montana'D
COMMERCIAL dairying in Mon
tana is of comparatively recent
~ growth. 1t is only within the
last ten years that it was con-
sidered of sufficient Importance to
justify a state department devoted
to it's interests. The State Dairy
Commission was created by act OF
the legislature in 1913. After that
dairying gradually increased in i'm
portance, but still did not attract the
majority of farmers, who preferred
to raise grain to sell. A grain farm
er can devote a few weeks or a few
months to the work necessary to
raise and market a crop and have
the balance of the year to devote to
leisure.
1t took some bitter experience to
teach the farmers of other sections
that a single crop system of agri-
culture cannot be depended upon to
carry them through a series OF years
without serious financial ills and
much disappointment. The uncer-
tainties of the seasons and the lack
of stability of grain prices, make ex-
elusive grain farming a poor staff
to lean upon. Besides that, it robs
the soil of it's fertility and encour-
ages a lack of thrift in the population
of a country.
Those farmers who were fa~r-sight-
ed enough to conduct their agricul-
tural operations by adding to the

was largely due to agitation caused
by the passage Of dairy laws regul-
ating the places where dairy pro-
ducts are made and handled. The
passage of those laws caused wide
spread discussion and the diffusion

Growth of Dairying in Montana.
From a very small beginning
which was confined almost entirely
to supplying the towns with milk, the
business of dairying in Montana
grew but slowly, as the open ranges
afforded opportunities for running

beef cattle and sheep on a large
scale and nobody cared to milk cows.
Thirty-five years ago, probably not
one cattle or sheep ranch in four had
a steady supply of milk or butter.
The COWS that furnished the towns
with milk were a very poor apology
for dairy cattle. 1t is only within
the last twelve years that real dairy
cattle have been brought into Mon
tana in any considerable numbers. A
