For the first year tho total amounted to $S6.49 per ";bow. This has gradually Increased until during the past year the sales per -cow amounted to 3205.33. The herd was established with native cows -■that cost an average of 334.50 per head. In 1908 a few registered Jersey and N Holstein females were purchased. High-class hulls of the two breeds have d been in constant use In the herd. By the application of the funda r mental principals of breeding and feeding, the average, earning capacity i"iper cow has been Increased almost two and one-half times in a period of .‘('ten years. -i There are some cows In every herd that may be called boarders be- L cause 'they do not furnish enough milk to pay for their keep. These may LiRe weeded out by keeping individual records of each cow and the figures | gjyen above show that it pays. Too much emphasis cannot be placed upon the point that the best way to start a herd paying dividends Is to sell oft the boarders and put at the head of the herd a good pure bred bull that has a line of high producing ancestry. Proper feeding goes a long ways towards making a paying herd, for jj tha feeding of dairy cows is an art. Write the State College of Agriculture It tm methods of feeding based on several years’ experience under Georgia conditions. An Interesting and instructive bulletin entitled, "How tc Make Good Butter,” has just been issued by the College. j, 1 The present crisis finds not enough dairy cows in the country to > furnish all the demands made on the milk supply. Some good dairy ani- Mmals are being butchered at an early age and farmers are urged to save j these for breeding stock and to furnish a supply of one of the cheapest and [■’ most desirable of all human foods. Her product should be used more j. widely as a substitute for meat, fish, canned vegetables and other products i'^JBSlch cost Infinitely more in proportion to their nutritive value.
