"So therefore we must not clamor for the reduction In the price of farm products, especially milk at this time, unless some plan may be devised whereby the dairy man can afford to stay In business. He probably works harder and more hours for his money than any other producer. "But I do not mean by this that we should pay a high price for an Inferior product.

It Is stated by the Illinois university thatln a recent series of tests, one goodcow was producing as much proft As forty of the poorest cows In the test. "This illustrates my point. The public should not be compelled to pay for milk at a price sufficient to make these forty poor cows profitable. Such cows should be sent to the butcher, and the good cows fed for a high production. It costs Just as much to feed a poor cow as It does a good one, and milk prices should be based accordingly. "We must have the milk for out children, and the problem will settle Itself when the cost of milk production on an efficient basis Is established. The cow testing association seems to me to be the solution f tha milk problem."
