McKinney P
Tribute To C
0 Low,
Dairy Farmer
‘‘Foster mother of the human
race.”
The dairy cow has been called
that, and aptly so; according to
W. H. McKinney (former Newton
County Agent), dairy scientist
with the University of Georgia
Extension Service, because she
produces a food necessary for
infants, and good for all ages.
Paying a June Dairy Month
tribute to the cow, Mr. McKinney
explained that she can take about
100 pounds of grass, 20 pounds
of grain and 30 gallons of water

pick up a quart of milk from the
door step or the grocery shelf,

early and late to make the pro

man is growing in importance
because his number has decreas«-

years ago. He said there are
only about 1,500 dairy farmers
in Georgia today, and added:
«“We are still able to buy milk
when we want it because the re
maining dairymen have invested
more money and work harder to
maintain an adequate supply.”
According to Mr. McKinney,
the average Georgia dairyman
milks 70 cows twice a day, ‘‘and
he has about SIOO,OOO invested
in his business. He milks his
