COW TESTING IS
CAUSE OF GAIN
FOR DAIRYINC
Improvement in Industry
Traced to This Fact
CrocherOn Says.

Cow testing is the foundation Of
the dairy Improvement program,
says b. II. Crocheron, director of
agricultural extension. ''In Jan
uary. 1926, there were 4S,jOl cows
under test. On November |, there
were 81 ,695 cows under test-an ad-
ditiOn of 9,l94 cows, or an increase
of 10 per cent in the 10 month pc
riod.
1.-The annual reports of the two
cow testing associations indicate the
the results secured by COW testing
members. One association shows
that the average of all cows in the
association two years or more was
Ala pounds of butterfat per COW
higher than the average of all cows
in the association for the first year.
This means an increased average in
come per COW of $25.42 for all cows
in herds that had been in the asso-
citation more than Il year, com
pared to those in the association for
the first time. Another association
shows that the average production
of all cows in herds which have been
in the association five years is 33.6
pounds of fat higher than the av-
eragc of cows in herds that are i'll
the association the first year. This
means an added average income per
cow of $20.63 in favor of those cows
in herds that are in the association
for Il longer period. where the own
ers have had an opportunity to Gull
out the poor cows. During 1928
there were GAGS Gull cows taken out
butcher This was II per cent of
the total cows tested for the year
and has resulted in increased eff
cheney i'll production.
During the past four years there
were ,429 purebred dairy bulls in
troduccd into dairy herds by the ag-
ricultupl extension service. The
spread of influence from purebred
sire campaigns has resulted in many
purebred bulls being introduced into
dairy herds which are not included
in the above figures. The increased
production of daughters of these
bulls will help to swell the averages
before 1880. Calf club work has
increased and there has been consid
cradle progress made in the program
for better feeding practice. Disease
control work has also made progress.
Interest is increasing III better dairy
buildings.
"All of these factors have contrib
uted to the increased average pro-
duction of California COWS and are
lending their influence toward reach
ing the goal of 265 pounds of butter
fat per cow in 1890.
