About $4,000 more was realized In
1925 on turkeys by Cascade county
growers than In 1924, according to
County Agent r. z. Cameron. The
turkey crop last year brought s435. 900.
It Is c0nservatively estimated that
10 carloads Of turkeys were shipped out
Of Cascade county this season. There
were probably from two TO four more
last year. But this years price WAS
much better than IN 1924 and brought
the receipts above those OF last year
In his figures Mr. Cameron has used
$4,000 pounds. as the average car load

ersge would be perhaps 25.OOO pounds
TO the car. but the county agent wishes
TO be. conservative In his estimate. It
Is known that some Of the cars were
In excess OF 10000 pounds.
II is believed that at least 10000
turkeys were shipped from the Cas-
cade county crop this year. Mr.. Cam

Choice Pure-Bred Bull
Will Improve Dairy Herd

It is usually the man who cannot af-
ford the luxury Of scrub bull that
owns one. Scrub bulls are costing
dalrymen millions OF dollars each year.
Only the very rich farmer can afford
to own scrub dairy cattle. for he who
uses a scrub or even good grade buli
will lose money. In other words, the
dairy COW gets her ability to make
milk and profits from the inheritance
passed on to her from her ancestors
Since it is most profitable for farm
ers who are selling cream to cream

which win improve his daughters In

CLEAN MILK is NOT
DIFFICULT PROBLEM

Contrary to a somewhat common
belief II does not require expensive
equipment, high-priced cows, or much
extra work 20 produce clean milk.
With healthy herd. kept In clean
stable and yard which can be kept
clean easily, and with careful atten-
ton being given to details a milk can
be produced. according to the wlscon-
sin College OF Agriculture. which is
both highly nutritious and wholesome.
Since the reputation OF many a farm
and factory Is based on the purity OF
Its products, II Is quite important that
all of the nIds 10 clean milk pEodHe-
ton be known. The first considera-
ton. the experts point out. is that Of
clean herd Good milk cannot be
produced from diseased cows. A clean
stable also aids immensely in the pro-
ductiOn Of clean milk.
Good ventilation is also an impor-
tant factor. Il is quite important that
animals secure plenty OF pure fresh
air since tuberculosis spreads faster
and gains an easier foothold where
fresh air is not provided In abundance.
A dry barnyard and the removal OF the
manure some distance from the barn
will aid greatly in reducing the num-
Der Of flies which. in the summer. an
noy the COWS and the mixers.
The value Of pure water. abundant
sunlight, and careful feeding cannot
be overemphaslzed. The matters Of
clean milking and clean utensils are
intimately associated. for great num-
bers of bacteria may be introduced
into milk from the bodies of the cows
and from unsterlIized utensils. Quick
cooling OF milk to lower temperatures
prevents bacterial growth and aids In
the production Of better milk which
viii keep longer and make finer dairy
products.
After the milk has been produced
under conditions which are as near
Ideal as possible, It is important that
Il be delivered promptly TO careful Gus
toners. MIX should be kept In cold
water until 1t Is loaded onto the wagon

Clean milk means fewer complaints,
4 better class of patrons, and steady
market for the product.

Bull Most Important
Single Animal in Herd

The bull is the most important
single factor in the breeding efficiency
Of the herd, says the New York State
College Of Agriculture. The bull is Oft
en- the means Of spreading infections
in the herd, and should be watched
more carefully than any other one
member Of II.
The college enumerates several
points to be remembered on buying
or caring for the herd sire. "a bull
should always be purchased from a
herd as free from breeding troubles
as possible A bull may be backed
by wonderful breeding and at the same
time be worthless as a breeder II
is advisable to have a newly pur-
chased sire examined by a.veterinarian
before putting him into service.
"The bull must not be too fat, but
he must be kept in good flesh, and one
way to do this is to give him plenty
Of regular exercise. A tread-power
or treadmill viii help keep him In
good trim.
do not turn the bull out with the
herd, as this makes II impossible to
keep an accurate check on him. It is
vital to have an accurate record Of his
services. and to follow through on the
results of each one. There is general
~ something wrong with a bull which
is classed as not a sure breeder. A
bull of this type may breed some Of
the cows successfully. but as a gen.
eral rule he is q menace TO the herd.
.The OuIl should at least have as
good care and feeding as the cows Of
the herd.
