IMPROVE THE HERD

David Friday, formerly president of

we all know but seldom stop to realize,
namely, that the scrub dairyman might
get 100000 pounds of milk in a year
from 40 cows, or an average of 5000
pounds each, while he could get the
same sized milk check from 80 cows
producing 1000 pounds each, or from
Is COWS producing 5000 pounds each,
or from 12 cows producing 10000
pounds each.
Bearing this fact in mind, the U. s.
Dairy division has recently completed
work which shows that cows produc-
ing 100 pounds of fat in a week re-
turned, over cost of feed, $1,000 apiece.
Cows producing 400 pounds of fat in
a year gave an average of $106 above
cost of feed. In other words, the COW
had to produce only four times as
much butterfat to become over ten

from the subject, ''Handwork in the
Schools stressing the Importance of
cultivating the hand as well as the
mind and the heart. He invited those
present to inspect the work on cxhibi-

this would prove of great benefit to

net profit Of a poor COW requires but a
slight increase in fat production..
From these figures it is easily seen
that with twelve good cows the in
come above feed cost is just as great
as with forty poor cows and the labor
involved in taking care of them is
about one-fourth of that of the larger
herd. The dairy business is not any
different from other businesses in
many respects. Surely these figures
would convince the most dubious to in
crease the profits and decrease the
labor. It is not question of how
many, but how good. Be it cows, men
or anything else, quality, not quantity.
