“The cost of electricity is only a Small part of the cost of operating a milking plant,” said Mr N. G. McLeod, engineer of the Thames Valley Power Board, when addressing farmers at Morrinsville on Saturday. “The cost of labour is eleven times as much as the cost of electricity. A saving can be made more easily from a better distribution of labour. There are some sheds where fifty cows per hand are milked, and others as low as sixteen per hand. lam not going to say the man milking fifty cows per hand is getting the best results.” Footballers, help your training by taking Yeaston Tablets. They fill you full of pep.—'W. Jeffery, chemist.
