Making Money out of Cows.

There arc ten rules for making money out of cows and they all begin with “ milk good cows.” To put the ease in a nutshell, or rather to skirn the cream from the whole matter, let us admit that there are, say, seven fundamental principles of successful dairying, about as follows : , 1. Weed out the poor cows by means of the scales and the Babcock test. 2- Feed the good cows plenty ot clean, choice stuff as close to a balanced ration as possible. 3. Eliminate competition by production of a better product than the other fellow and demanding a good price for it. 4. Head the herd with a high class, purebred sire. 5. Raise the promising calves from the best cows only. 6. Develop a market for your surplus bull calves and other stock. 7- heed the mind of the man behind the cow.
