not the same. In other words,
they look alike but they are not

Advice to Maryland
Agriculturists.
Special Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The star.
BALTIMORE, March 22.--MarylAnd
dairy farmers are urged by the Uni
versity of Maryland extension service
to work toward more economical pro-
duction during 1880 by eliminating the
low producing COW, using more home
grown feeds and retaining for replace
merlt only those heifers that come from
high-producing cows and are sired by
good pure-bred bulls.
1t is pointed out that there Is q
surplus Of fluid milk In Maryland and
an reproduction of butter, cream
and condensed milk in the country at
large. a condition that has largely been
brought about by the decrease in pur-
chasing power Of the consumer. 1t is
expected that this situation will inf1u-
ence the market throughout the coming
year.
University officials agree, therefore,
that this is not an advantageous time
to enlarge the present herd or estab-
lish herds since there was an increase
last year in Maryland Of 2,l90.S75 gal
Ions of milk over that produced IN 1928.
Such q situation indicates possibility
of lower prices for this commodity
during the coming year. Moreover.
during the past Is months q large
number of heifers have been saved to
be placed in Maryland herds, consti-
tuting approximately 80 per cent Of
the dairy cows in the State. It Is be-
lieved that this condition alone win
tend to AFFECT milk production for sew
eral years to come.
