NEW USE FOR OLD
AUTOMOBILE TIRES

PALATKA, Fla, February 13.-
A new use for old discarded auto
mobile tires has been discovered
here, where used tires are now be-
ing manufactured into printers ink.
The product of this new process
is said to have been thoroughly
tried out by Palataka printing con
Germs the ink making a record OF
perfect performance. 1t is known
as a quick dryer and contains an
excellent gloss, and leaves no "off-
set" which is usually an annoyance
to printers. Plains are being PEI
fected in Palatka for the manufac
ture of this ink on a large scale
which means that hereafter there
will be a use for discarded auto
tires.

Cow testing records increase the
sale value of dairy COWS and their off
spring. Leading auctioneers in this
state report that good cow testing
association record on a grade COW Will
sell her for from SIS to $35 more than
she would bring without the record,
says Don G. Magruder, extension
dairy specialist at the State College.
While the chief benefit of records to
the member is the basis which they
give for improving his breeding and
feeding methods, nevertheless rec
ord on good COW is worth for sale
value alone much more than 1t costs.
The value Of the record depends
upon the kind which is kept. There
are four classes of records commonly
in use-private records, COW testing
circle records, COW testing association
records and official records. They
vary in accuracy and in the methods
of procedure in making the records.
Private records assist In the sale OF
dairy COWS, but their value is depend.
ent upon the ability of the dairyman
to keep accurate records. One well
established breeder sells for $500 or
more any young bull which he has for
breeding purposes. He has reputa
ton for fair dealing and has done
work in a creamery which enables him
to be thorough in compiling private
records.
Cow testing circle records are usu
ally more accurate than private rec
ords. Under this system the dairy
man weighs the feed and milk and
takes the samples. Testing and rec
ord keeping is done by an experienced
tester. One leading dairyman in the
state uses these records quite salts
factorily in selling surplus cows.
Weighing the milk and feed ant
taking samples takes little time i
good arrangements are made. Test
ing and record keeping is better done
by one experienced in and doing this
is especially adapted to small dalr!
herds.
Cow testing association records arr
probably more accurate than either o
the above methods, as everything con
nected with the record is usual!
done by an experienced man. An at

tempt is made to recommend for test.
ers only those who can and will do ac-
curate work.
Dairymen with large herds usually
prefer association to circle testing
work. When they hire mixers it is
difficult to get them to be accurate in
weighing the milk and taking the
samples from each individual COW, as
COW testing work requires.
A tester may make mistake in
testing or figuring occasionally, but a
careful check shows that the average
COW testing association record is
within per cent of accurate as com
pared to official records.
In official testing added precautions
are taken to have the records abso
lutely correct. 1t is required that only
one COW be MIXED at time; testers
are changed; and new testers are sent
in unexpectedly. Every precaution is
taken to prevent dishonesty.
1t is assumed in making COW testing
association records that the member
is using his records primarily to i'm
prove breeding and feeding methods
so no attempt is made to prevent dis
honesty on the part of the member. A
COW testing association record, though
not as valuable as an official record
is a decided asset in selling dairy
COWS.
