OFITABLE DAIRYING . BBy "HUGH G. VAN PELT ' Dau’y Expert lowa State Dairy Association What State Dairymen’s Associations Can Do

‘Knowing the possibilities tn store for dairy farming and realizing the posgibility of doubling the Income from the dairy products and in this manner adding to the wealth of the lowa farmer nearly half as many dollars as a bumper crop of corn in a year of high prices, all forces are at work to accomplish the result. The last - general assembly appropriated 310,000 to. the lowa State Dalrymen'’s associatfon to enable them to do more effective work along educafibnal lines in dairying. With this money they have hired dairy experts to conduct a campaign with the one end in view— Increasing the butter products of the lowa cow. To accomplish this result no stones are being left unturned. Special dairy trains have been run and more will be run over the state, carrying to the farmer’s door the facts relative to the care and selection of his herd that will mean to ®m

Short course schools are probably one of the very best means of educating the farmer dairyman, although it is impossible to reach so many during a short period of time. But those to whom éducation is carried through this channel have an Qopport\mlty ‘to learn g great deal more that will be a benefit to them because the corps of instructors remains with the one class for a week at a time and during this course dairy animals of proper form, conformation and working ability are brought before them and’the essential points to be obseryed In- selecting dairy animals are .pointed out and practically demonstrated with the live animal. Methods of securing the very best animals for the production of milk and butter fat are discussed, and of course this brings up the study of breeding, raising -and developing dairy cattle; Feeding the dairy cow is an alldmportant point, and this matter is discussed every day during the week "with the students. Caring for milk and cream on the farm' is a real live question at the present time. There 1s another possibility here in that, by the proper care of the milk and cream from the time it is milked until it reaches the c¢reamery, it will not be difficult to increase- the price per pound of butter shipped out of lowa by on7oent and this means an income in Atself of over $lO,OOO per year.

surprise to the dairyman to realize that there is as much to be Jlearned regarding the proper way to milk the dairy cow as there was to be learned regarding. the growing of corn five or six years ago. After the cow has been milked at these short courses the milk is weighed, then a sample taken and tested with the Babcock tester to determine the percentage of butter fat found in the milk; and after all this is probably the very most important thing to be learned by the dairy farmer at the present time, because it enables him to find out which of his cows are good ones and which of them are the unprofitable kind, and this certainly must be the first consideration in building up the herd. He must get rid of his poor cows and

Farmers Are Interested.

It lis_surprising the interest that these short-course students take in their work, for, as a matter of fact, they do better work during the five or six days while the opportunity is presented than do the real college students, who feel that their opportunitles for education are to last for a period of four years instead of for.one short week - :

The lowa State Dairy association also furnishes lecturers for farmers’ institutes, one of which is held in every county in lowa, supported to an extent by the appropriation from the state. In the past there has been very littlc encouragement to the farmer, who attended the Institutes, along lines of dairying because the available lecturers were few, but now that the state . has come:to the assistance of the State Dairymen’s association it is possible for the latter insti-: tution to supply speakers free of cost except for their traveling expenses to every farmers’' institute in the -state that signifies its interest in the real business of dairying. . . Probably one of the best opportunities to do good is found at the annual meetings of the patrons of the 500 creameries located in lowa. . At this time the treasurer reports to the patrons—numbering from 50 to 500— what the financial condition of their creamery is and what the profits have been during the past year. On such an occasion more interest is displayed than at any other .time, because the patron feels that the business is largely his-—which is a fact. If it is possibie, and usually it is, to show him where his organization can be more successful and pay larger prices to the patrons for their butter fat during the coming year, he feels that it is to his advantage to grasp the opportunity and.in this v?ay much good results to the patrons in the community. Probably the best manner of assisting these creamerymen is to form associations and already in Worth county the North Jowa Dairy Improvement asscciation has been organized with ten creameries co-operating. The butter made by these ten creameries is taxed by the organization one-tenth produces in her creameries over 1,000,000 pounds of butter, and in this.respect leads, as a rule, all' other-states in the Union. Judging from this butter income, together with the income from the city milk supplies and from other by-products of the dairy ‘cow, it has been carefully estimated that the ‘dairy business of lowa means an an‘nual income, of $60,000,000, and it is a fact that the chief factory to be found in nearly 500 towns in the state Is the factory where the cream pro- ' duced on the farm is manufactured in butter and shipped to market. Possibilities of the lowa Cow. Owing to the fact that a great portion of the butter produced in lowa

is shipped out of the state, the butter industry represents one of the chief sources of income and wealth to the state of lowa. The production of butter and the wealth therefrom, howover, is not a thing that the lowa farmer is often found boasting about, because he realizes that large as the production of butter is and large as is the income at present, it is only a small indication of the real possibilities of the lowa cow. To produce this amount of butter nearly a million and a half cows are being milked and their average production is in the neighborhood of only 140 pounds of butter per year. One can only realize the smaliness of this production by comparing it with the large yleld of the better herds of dairy cows that are to be

Any poocl, no matter if it is covered with a dirty scum, is used for a tub, and the washerwoman who has a running stream in which to rinse the clothing is indeed fortunate. The clothing is spread on bushes to dry in the sun, and when ironed is hung on the end of a forked pole and carried to the house of the customer. This

found in many scates. Many are the herds that produce an average of over 400 pounds of butter a year, and this means that each cow on the average is returning to her owner an incomse of over $lOO annually for the butter she produces. There is.a possibility that the production of even these bétter herds can be gradually increased, and this is best proven by the fact that in these herds are to be found many cows that are producing much more than 400 pounds of butter, while others are producing a lesser amount, One is not surprised nowadays to find cows that have produced from 700 pounds to 1,000 pounds of butter a year, and a few cows already have produced over 1,100 pounds of butter in 365 days. There is a possibility of doubling the average production of the cows with very little expense. In fact, only three things are needed to accomplish this, namely: Better dairymen, better cows and better methods of caring for and feeding them. To double the average production of the cow would mean that she must. produce an average of 280 pounds of butter annually, and no doubt the time will come when she will be doing this, for as a matter of fact her present production is not making for her owner any great amount of net profit even at the high price of butter fat.

In older countries we find the cows’ average in production even more than 280 pounds of butter per year. Among these countries are Denmark, Holland, New Zealand, the Jersey and Guernsey islands and other countries.

Little Improvement in the Average' Dairy Cow.

In mo:st lines of agriculture the American farmer is most progressive and leads the world. During the past number of years he has been busy improving his herds of horses, hogs and beef cattle as well as his farm equip ment, and has overlooked the importance of the dairy cow. Likely this is the reason that we find him to day milking cows that are no better than“the cows he was milking 25 years ago, and in many cases of a quality even poorer. He has considered the dairy cow as more or less a side 18 sue and as sort of a troublesome necessity. At this time, however, with the great advancement in the price of land and the problem of making his farm better instead of farming (it to death, he has looked around him and found that of all farm -animals the good dairy cow is at the present time returning to her owner more net profit from her daily product, helping in making the farm better, and that heg, calves are selling for a higher price than ever before, and at a greater profit than any other animal on the farm. He has found that there is a vast difference between the cows that he is keeping, and in many instances

iR ooy Pomfe TR el R Lo e S w& q . e el T e Good Type -of Jersey Cow. - he finds standing side by side under exactly the same conditions and receiving the same feed both in quaprity and quality, two cows, one of which is producing 100 pocnds of bukter a year while the other is producing 500 pounds of butter in a year. It takes only a moment’s consideration to discover, when his attention i 3 drawn to this fact, that one of these cows—even though she consumes five times as much feed—requires five times as much labor to, care for her and milk her; even though she might occupy five times as much space in the barn or pasture, is five times the more profitable cow of the two. :

Doubling the Production of Butter.

This is a fact that is found or nearly every farm at the present time, and right now the dairyman is struggling to get rid of the poor cows and keep a larger number of cows, but it is difficult for him to find them because during these same years his neighbors have paid very little attention to the building up of their own dairy herds and the same conditions are found upon their farms—a few real good cows and a number of real poor cows. He, too, has discovered the difference between good cows and "poor| cows, and the result is that to buildi up at once good herds of dairy cows i§ practically an impossibility, and it will take a considerable length of time to make the great necessary improvement in our herds. Nevertheless, the necessity of bettering our dairy condi. tions is apparent. It is a possibility to double the production of dairy products with the same number of cows in milk, which means that there is a possibility of producing annually in lowa instead $60,000,000 worth of dairy , products, $120,000,000 worth, which lack a very little of amounting to as ‘much as does the annual cora crop of the state. This, no doubt, will be a surprise to the reader, as it is a matter of llowa history that the corn crop is by far the most important of all lowa industries. There is, however, no area the size of lowa in the world that is better fitted for a large, economical and profitable production of dairy products. Everything except the good cow is present. ,There is no better feed than corn when fed in proper amounts and proportions, and there is an abundance of pasture grasses, clovers, good climatic conditions, fresh water, intelligent farmers and good markets. :

PLOWS CLASSIFIED BY : - SHAPE OF MOLD-BOARD Point Insures or Prevents Good Plowing and Light Draft —Ground Can Be Well Plowed Only When ; It Pulverizes. ' : = , o J , , J , | Showing the Wing (W) Without Bearing Surface.

(BY FRED R. CRANE, UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS.)

There are many different kinds of plows, but they may all be divided into three types, according to the shape of the mold-board. One is the sod plow, with the long, sloping moldboard, which turns the sod clear over. The second has a mold-board of medium slope, which turns the furrow upon edge, but does not throw it entirely over. The third type is a bluff mold-board, which turns the furrow up and thoroughly pulverizes it. Ground can be well plowed only when it will pulverize thoroughly. If it turns up in chunks and cakes the land lis not properly underdrained. Many farmers are finding that their tiled fields are not thoroughly drained and are putting in new strings of tile between the old ones. 3

The plow bottom is the part of the implement that does the work. Turn the plow upon its back and look across the bottom, put a straight-edge lengthwise upon the bottom or sole of an old plow and of a new one and find whether the shares dip down at the point. If the point dips down as the plow stands in the furrow, the point would of course turn up when the plow is inverted and the straightedge will touch the point of the share and the heel of the land side, but there will be a space of about threesixteenths of an inch between the straight-edge and the land side, where the latter joins the share. This dipping down of the point is to make the plow go into the ground and it is called .the ‘“suction” of the plow. The plow as it comes from the factory should be and generally is constructed so that it floats freely in the ground, cutting a uniform furrow of the depth for which the plow is adjusted. If a walking plow requires to be forcibly tilted or held in a certain position” there is'something the matter with the implement. In the riding plow the suction should be twice as great as in the walking plow. The suction or dip of the point is almost always right in the new plow. - - After the plow has been used for some time the point often gets worn off or “snubbed up” so that a straight-

ATTENTION TO SPRING PIGS

Well KXnown Fact Among Stockmen That First Hundred Pounds Is Cheapest Meat Put on AniE mals—Need Much Care.

Pigs which come in March or April and have the right breeding can be made to weight 200 to 250 pounds for the October market, but they will need the best of care and feed.

Many farmers in the busy season neglect their young stock. They are so busy planting.and harvesting that they cannot, or think they cannot, find time to feed and water the growing animals. The crops of course need attention in season, but so does the live stock. It will pay better to hire handsat ‘big wages than to allow field crops or stock to suffer for want of attention. ; B

Just as soon as spring pigs are a day or two old they must be allowed to go out of the house and exercise in the pen. ; :

edge laid upon the bettom of the plow as before would rock over the middle. Such a plow cannot be made to stay at the proper depth in the ground without materially increasing the draft. It is supposed that this suction will be corrected by the furrow. In a riding plow the bearing surface at the wing is decreased, giving the share much greater angle at that point. This bearing surface is nét needed to hold the riding plow level because it is loaded on wheels and supported in a rigid position so it cannot tip. In sharpening the share of a walking plow it is important to see that sufficient bearing surface is given to the wing. When the wing wears off, leaving but a small bearing surface upon the bottom of the furrow at that corner it allows the plow to tip toward the furrow. In a riding plow the bearing surface at the wing is decreased, giving the share much greater angle at that point. This bearing surface is not needed to hold the riding plow level because it is loaded on wheels and supported in -a rigid’ position so that it cannot tip. In sharpening the share of a walking plow, it {s important to see that sufficient bearing surface is given to the wing.

Ingpecting the Cows.

The only way one can tell the profitable and unprofitable cows is by keeping the records of each one for a while. Hoard’s Dairyman says that in a recent instance the inspection of a herd of dairy cows showed that one cow was yielding ‘butterfat at the rate of $11.75 per month, and another was producing at the rate of $1.57 per month. The farmer who owned this herd was ignorant of the work of either of the cows. Didn’t that man need something that would stir his mind to more profitable knowledge? Thousands are in his condition. Who ever heard of a dairy farmer running behind because he knew too much about his cows? :

After they are a week old they should be given the run of a grassy lot or pasture with the sow, and all through the summer they must be allowed freedom to feed and exercise on good range. : It is a well known fact among stockmen that the cheapest meat put on an animal is the first hundred’ pounds, and that the second hundred pounds is put on ‘more cheaply than the third. With hogs, at the present prices of grain, the third and fourth hundred pounds represent no profits. With spring pigs on good pasture and fed merning and evening with good slop of shorts and a li\ttle dry corn they wiil put on a pound of weight each day and be ready for heavy feeding when corn is ripe or ready to hog down. They will not do it on water and corn alone. The variety during the first months of growth must be furnished to give them large frame and vigorous constitution, so that they will have capacity for grain feed in the fall. i

LAND IN CANADA AN INVESTMENT

WORK IT, AND SECURE 20 PER CENT. ON THE EXPENDITURE.

Farm lands in Canada increased in | value this Spring from fifteen to twenty per cent, and as a result of this increase thousands of those who have gone there within the past few years have had that much more value added to their holdings. There is proof here that as a fleld for investment there is nowhere to be found a more profitable one than in purchasing farm lands in Canada. And, as a fleld for occupation and working the farms there is nowhere on the continent where more satisfactory return is given. Thw crops are always sure and the prices are always good. With railroads entering and traversing all the settled parts, there are very few districts in which the farmer will be more than from ten to twelve miles from a.railway station. Roads are good, and big loads are easily handled. The price of getting grain to the primary market is low on this account, and then in reaching the world's markets the railways have their rates controlled by the Government, and what may be considered a fair deal is certain. Good prices for all kinds of grain is the rule, and if the investor has made good money by the increased value given to his unworked land, it is not difficult to understand that the profit to the man who works his land is just that much more, and therel will be no depreciation. The man | who holds a free homestead of one hundred and sixty acres of land, which he got for $lO as an entry fee, has land which at its lowest estimafte is worth $lO an acre—yes, $l5 an acre —the moment he has completed his three years’ residence duties. It will continue to increase in value until its earning power gives a reasonable interest on a certain sum. That is, if he takes off the land fifteen to twenty dollars per acre clear profit each year, his land is worth to him, at a fair rate of interest, $2OO an acre. If he only realizes $lO an acre clear profit, it is worth 8100 per acre. Now, thousands of farmers are duplicating these figures. The price of land in Canada to-day is much less than its realizing value. The fact that the fifty thousand Americans who went to Canada year before last were followed by one hundred thousand last year offers some evidence, and good evidence, too, that there is getting to be a pretty fair knowledge that money is to be made in Canada lands. As an investment money is to be made, but more by living upon the land, secured either by homestead or purchase., The one hundred thousand of last year will be one hundred and fifty thousand this year. These comprise people from every state in the Union, and it is just being. realized the asset that awaits the homeseeker in Canada. The large numbers that have gone, though, makes no appreciable difference in the supply of land. There is suill left vast quantities of the best of .it. But the longer a delay is made in‘arriving at a decision, the price will advance proportionately, and the more desirable homesteads near the railway lines become more difficult to secure. The Government publishes interesting literature, which may be had on application to any of the agents whose offices are located at different points through the States, and they (the agents) will be pleased to assist im I any way possible in the choice of location.
