I OHIO FARMERS VISIT BERNE I Large Party Inspects Dairy Farms In Southern Part Os Adams County _ | ’. Fifteen automobiles loaded with tar ' mere and their families from the viIcinity of Ohio City. Ohio, visited a ' | number of dairy farms In the P-ernej I neighborhood, last Nafurday, Every, ' farm visited was the home of an cn ■ tbusiastic dairyman and each told the J visitors that his cows were largely for his prosperity. . I The following,account of the trip Is j taken from the Van Wert Times: , "The region around Herne is one of the most prosperous in Indiana. Its soil is not as good as that of \ an Wert county. Because there has been a milk s condensing plant in Berne for several 1 years, dairying has made rapid proi gress. Nearly every barn seems t j 8 ■ have a big silo nearby. j Ont of seven farms visited during ■ the afternon, all but one had silos. . ! Tho owner of the seventh place exi peets to erect one later, he said. l Like Holsteins "My holsteins are big produceis. True, their milk doesn't test as high as that of some other breeds. But my milk check amounts to just as much os the others and 1 have the advantage c 'with Holsteins of getting more money J for the bull calves 1 sell because they \ are larger than Guernsey or Jersey - calves.” "Silos on all of the places visited except one were made of a red clay tile similar to that manufactured at Haviland. Some of them have been ' built for several years and are declared very satisfactory The tile is plastered on the inside. Present prices could not be secured because none of ■ the feed containers had been built re- ! cently. ITobably the newest one, — ■ 10 feet in diameter and 33 feet high—i cost him 3400, the farmer said. i “Tile used for these silos is nianui factored in Berne and a contractor ■ there furnishes the tile and erects a siio of a given size for a stipulated sum. There is an active cow testing assocation around Berne. Three of the seven farmers visited were members and the others spoke favorably of the , organization. Careful records of cost ' of feeding and of milk production are kept by the members so there is no guess work about whether their herds ate making them money or not. Condensary Gets Most Most of the milk produced ou the places visited is sold to the Berne condensary, although one man is taking his to a Decatur creamery at present and another is selling part of his supply at retail in Berne. The condensary sweetens its condensed milk and ships it in barrels to manufacturers of milk products. Saturday the concern was paying 32.00 per hundred for 3.5 milk, the same as the local cheese factory. The Van Wert countv .p.eopJe '.vho made the trip to iiiiiiaPa. loft -Ohio City about 10 o'clock. They met at non at the city park at Berne where they had a picnic dinner with a bountiful supply of friend chicken and other things which go to make a successful picnic. After the meal they listened to short talks by Emil Frey, manager oi the Mc.tiroe Cheese Co., and County Agent Ralph Zimmerman. COURT HOUSE Administratrix Appointed Mary Moser has been appointed a-Imini-tratitx in the estate of Peter 11. Moser. Case Dismissed The case of the Central West Coal and Lunffter company vs. Ezra Hubegger has been dismissed on motion of the plaintiff. n i m— w iwnr 'smu/
