(Bv MII.l.EB PURVIS.) There are some things which have been said over and over so many times that I sometimes think it a waste of time, (o mention them again, but as I am traveling about the coun try 1 see so many proofs which show that these things are not commonly practiced that 1 fee! as if those who write for the farmer's benefit should try to emphasize old truths as well as expound new ones. We have been talking about bal anced rations so long that it would seem as if every dairyman would feel the necessity of using a ration which would produce the best results, yet I doubt if five per cent of the cows of the country tire fed In the most eco nomical manner and 1 often find ex amples of the most costly kind of feeding, although the owners think they u’o feeding at the lowest cost. It should be remembered that low cost feeding is not usually the cheap- | est feeding. In fact, the lower the i cost of feeding a cow the lower the revenue from her. The economy of feeding a given ration Is not to be de termined by the initial cost of that ration, but by the result it produces. If by Increasing the cost of the daily ration 50 per cent we can in crease the revenue any more than 50 per cent till the increase above that figure is clear profit which cannot be charged with anything for labor or interest on investment because these items of cost are not Increased by the better system of feeding. The only way to determine whether a cow pays a profit to her owner is to keep a record of her performance as a milker and to know what is costs to feed her Tin' cost of feeding .nay be very closely approximated without keeping an individual account, but to know to any degree of certainty what she re turns lo her owner tlie milk she pro duces must be weighed and tested. Without putting a cow to the rigid test of weighing her milk and deter mining its quality, either by churning separately or putting samples through the Haiicock tester, no one c^ti tell whether she is a profitable animal to keep. I would tie surpris* 1 to hear tl t one in 100 owners of five or more cow- •. in tills country could make any son | of an intelligent test of her value ns a money maker. It would lie considered foolish for ! a merchant to buy a liai . i! of sup 1 without asking the cost of it and srl! ing it by guessing at the weight of each sale. Such a proceeding carried out in all the lines kept in a store would sped ruin in a short time, yet this is the way many dairymen do business. Keeping a record is a very simple operation, if all the pails used in milking are made to weigh the same, which easily can lie done, it is only necessary to keep a milk sheet tacked up in the cow stable where it will lie handy. When the cow Is milked hang the pail with the milk In It on the hook of the scale, note -he weight on the sheet and when ihe month is ended subtract the weight of the pail as many times as there are weighings ud the remainder is the total weight if the milk Ladies’ 1 ailored Suits 'oOLTKX SUITS have been a surprise to us as well as you.
