The dairy farmers are awake to the fact that present-day conditions require a measure of agriculture in its truest sense is evidenced in the fact that a considerable area of dairying land is now being cultivated for the purpose of growing winter feed for cows. There can be no doubt about this being the right thing to do, and only those who are awake to the full advantages of growing winter feed will reap the full results of dairying. The introduction of butter-fat blood to the numerous herds in the district is to be commended, and it is entirely in the interests of the farmers and townspeople that this should be continued, but too much emphasis cannot be placed on the advice, "Feed, feed, and yet more feed if you want butterfat."
