Reorganize D. T. I. A.
O. H. Liebera, manager of the Ne
braska Dairy Development society
and E. C. Scheidenholm, dairy spec
ialist fro mthe College of Agricul
ture, attended the meeting held on
Thursday at the Farm Bureau office.
Fourteen dairymen heard Mr. Lieb
ers discuss pedigrees. "The bunk on
pedigrees can readily be seen if you
look for it," Mr. Liebers says. All
the writing that says a certain ani
may traces to another animal through
a brother or grand-dam is "bunk."'
that is so far way that it has noth
ing to do with the animal in ques
tion. The things you wan to know
about a bull you might wish to buy
are: Has he any daughters, and how
much butterfat have they produced;
if he is a young bull what his dam's
record, not in butter but in butter
fat, for a cow does give butter; what
are his sisters record if they have
any and so on back through the pedi
gree. An example shown by Mr. Lieb
ers was the pedigree of a bull pur
chased for $160. After crossing out
all the "bunk" there was not a sin
gle record of production for three
generations.
Regardless of how good the records
were generations back, the bull was
only worth beef pdices. "You might
jost as well have a scrub bull as 8
pedigreed one without a production
tecord. Papers mean nothing.' says
I-iebers.
Mr. Scheideuhelm explained the
butter sires contest that the differ
ent Dniry Herd improvement Asso
ciations throughout the state, are
conducting. T'.. is c ntest is primarily
a Study of the members own sires.
Most every dairyman needs to know
more about his own bull so the con
test is organized to Rive this Study
and the associations that do the
greatest improving in their sires will
be awarded prizes.
The old officers were re-elected
for the coining year. They are:

Women's Poultry Project.
There has been a demand from the
county for a poultry course for wom
men. a course thai begins at the be
ginning of the poultry industry, the
egg. A project has been planned
which will deal with the simplest
forms of poultry raising. From the
old hen method to the most expensive
incubator, from the small box house
to the finest kind of brooder house.
There will be six lessons and mem
bers enrolling for the work will meet
once a month at the regular training
center in their part of the county.
Any woman interested in this pro
ject should get in touch with the
Farm Bureau office right away. The
first round of meetings will be held
the latter part of February.
Chick Math Mixture.
With the present low prices of
grains, poultry raisers should con
sider seriously whether they can af
ford to mix their own chick mash
this year or buy it already mixed.
Profits will be lean enough at the
best and mixing your own feed may
be another means of lessening costs
considerably.
The new recommended ration is:
Yellow cornmeal 400 lbs.
Shorts 200 lbs.
Bran 100 lbs.
Pulverized oat groats 100 lbs.
Alfalfa leaf meal SO lbs.
Meat and bone meal 75 lbs.
Dried skim milk or dried
buttermilk 50 lbs.
Salt 10 lbs.

1. For early season use 1 good
grade cod liver oil. Mix fresh every
week.
2. Direct sunshine whenever it can
be provided without chilling chicks.
Cod liver oil is after all only a sub
stitute.
3. Green feed (alfalfa, clover,
lettuce, lawn clippings, etc.) cut in
short lengths when available.
4. The ingredients for this ration
can be purchased and the ration
mixed for about SI. 60 per cwt. fig
ured at the present market prices of
each. Compare this with already mix
ed rations before you buy.
The same mix makes a splendid ra
tion for the hens. D. D. Wainscott,

CONTINUES TO IMPEOVE
From Wednesdays Dally
The many friends of the L. F.
Terryberry family will be very much
pleased to learn that Wallace, their
young son, is now showing a very
fine rate of improvement at the Meth
odist hospital in Omaha, where he
was operated on two weeks ago for
the removal of a mastoid. The con
dition of the young lad was very ser
ious for a number of days and the
improvement that has occurred in
the last few days points to a speedy
return home and being able to re
sume his school activities.
There is no slack business period
for the merchant who advertises his
goods the year 'round.
