figures.
Even though the number of
farms reporting milk cows to the
census takers has declined steadily
from $4,000 before 1920 to 1900
in 1854, the total number of milk
cows on farms increased by about
$1,000 head, during the same
period, from 10000 to 219,OO0. The
average number of cows per herd
increased from 5 to 10.
There are two basic causes for
the increase in average herd size"
explains DR.. Wysong. First, the
elimination of many 1-to-4 COW
herds formerly maintained to pro-
duce dairy products largely for
home consumption. Second, the in
creased number of milk COWS in
commercial dairy herds-those
producing for the wholesale milk
market.
In the past Is years the average
number of cows per farm selling
whole milk has increased l2O per-
cent, from 10 to 20 cows per farm.
At the same time, production per
COW increased IS percent, from g.
AGO to $500 pounds.
One factor that has remained
fairly constant through all the
changes is the average size of
the labor force per farm-it is
still equivalent to two full-timc
workers. The pounds OF milk sold
per man has more than triplcd
during the last 25 years.

Dairy Farming Trend

Average milk production on
Maryland dairy farms selling whole
milk has increased 263 percent in
the past 25 years, from $4,000
pounds to 10000 pounds per farm.
Increased production per farm is
one of the several adjustments the
states dairy farmers are making
in their business operations, ac-
cording to a study of dairy farm
business adjustments conducted
by the University of Maryland de-
partment of agricultural economies
Dr. John w. Wysong, reporting
on the study, says other major az
justments are a decreasing number
of herds, an increase in herd size
and higher production per COW.

Revised District
Setup Opposed

Opposition developed today
in Congress to proposals of
some members of the House
and Senate to abolish the House
and Senate District commit
tees and to substitute a con-
1gressional joint committee, with
control over all District legisla-
tive and budget matters except
the size of the Federal pay
ment.
Bills to this effect were to be
introduced today by several
members of the House and by
Senator Clark, Democrat of
Pennsylvania, former mayor of
Philadelphia, who is chairman
of the Judiciary Subcommittee
of the Senate District Commit
tee.
Is On Committee
The new plan calls for the
abolition of both present Dis
trict committees and the crea-
ton of a congressional joint
committee of 10 members, nine
to be appointed by the Speaker
of the House and nine by the
Vice President.
This would get rid Of the
House District Committee
where Washington home rule
legislation traditionally has
been buried.
The bills were to be intro.
duced today by Representative:
Thompson. Democrat of New
Jersey. and Scott, Republican
of Pennsylvania, among Others

by Mr.. Clark.

Earlier Plea
Representative Broyhill, Re-
publican of Virginia, an
nounced earlier this month that
he had asked the Department
of Agriculture to survey the
Fairfax situation in a prelimi-
nary move toward declaring
the county a disaster area.
The board today acted on in
formation presented by N. D
Gould, county office manager
of the Fairfax Agricultural
Sterilization and Conservation
Committee.
With the aid Of farmers, he
said, his Office has determined
that dry weather has already
cut the corn crop between AZ
and go per cent and has forced
farmers to use at least six
weeks Of wintr feed stores sci
aside from hay cuttings early
this year.
Mr.. Gould said county farm
ers normally sell about So mil

members indicated they will do
so, too.
M. A. Mace, the developer,
said he planned to erect the
first section Of the 200-room
motel on the 221a-acre tract,
southeast of the intersection,
within the next few months.
The interchange. which will
be part Of the circumferential
highway development in the
area. would be reduced on the
southeast and northeast sides
from about 9 acres each to 3
acres. Edward Holland. an en-
gfneer representing Mr.. Mace,
said a firm headed by James
Wilkes, Washington attorney,
planned construction of a Sec
ond motel on the northeast side
Of the intersection.
Cost Estimate
He estimated the inter-
change modification would cost
the city about $4,000 in the
first stage and a total Of $780,
600 in 21a years. Under the orig
inal plan. most Of the cost
would be borne by the State,
but construction would not
take place for several years.
Mr.. Holland observed that
the motel developments would
soon pay for construction costs
through city tax revenues. He
added that the Mace firm would
be willing to pay for the con-
struction. which later would
be repaid by the city.

plan would have permitted the
interchange to cut through
