Tbs eow-tasttag sssoetatloa li ths simplest surest and cheapeat method for the rspid improveuMSii et dairy cowa It affords the avarsds dairy¬ man an seonomiral msans of ehtaln- ing a rseord of how mnch sa«h cow yrodncss snd ^hat It coats. Snch t«e- ords rsqnlrs regolsrlty In tsstinc and wslgbing of mllk snd f«ed, and s sys¬ tematic form of keeping tbs data. Tbs dUBcuIty of thla work la eliminated by the cow-teatlng association, whlcb fur- nlabea a more oconomlcal way of ob- talnUig inch records thaa If sach dslrymsn undertook to keep bis own, writss B. U. Harmon ta tbs farm Ufa.
A cow-testing ssaoclaUon ta a groiip of farmers, nsually M, wbo agres to co-operata for the purpoee of Improv¬ ing their dairy herds. Tbey form an aaaodaUon and hire a man wboae dnty tt is to weigh and test ths mUk, and to keep a detailed record of ths production of each cow In th^r herds, together with the coet of prodncUon. This man, called the tester, spends one day every month on the farm of eaeb member, where be weighs and tssta the milk from each cow. From these flgures he calcolates the amonnt of mUk and fat prodneed during the month and Ita valne at tbe market price Tbe teater also weighs and rec¬ ords the amount and kind of feed given each cow, compntes Ita valne and estimates the total cost of feed for the month. When tbls amount baa been charged agalnat tbe valne of tbe milk and fat produced for that montb, the owner Is able to determine the proflt or loea on each cow In bla herd. He then knowa the amount retumed for eacb dollar expended for fed and the exact coet of producing a pound of fat. or 100 pounda of milk.
The tester also assista In selecting feeds and flguring the most profltable raUons. He alao offera auggeatlona on breeding, management and other phaaea of the business aa deemed ad¬ vlaable by the attitude of the member. Be will not make suggestions nor ad¬ vocate changes for any farm unleaa be feela that they wiU be welcomed by tbe owner.
The tester comes to the farm ta the aftemoon with bbi outflt. With the owner, be weighs and estimates the feed given earh cow, and at milking time they weigh and taks a sample et the mllk from each cow, Tbe next momlng these same operations are re¬ peated, the Babeock test Is applied to the mixed sample reprrsenttag tha moiling and evening mllk of each cow, the outflt Is washed aod the necessory computations are made and recorded in the member'a herd book. When this is completed the teater goes on to the farm of the next member.
It la tbe duty of tbe members to keep as accurate an account of the milk produced and feed consumed be¬ tween tbe vtalta of the tester aa Is practical under ordinary farm condi¬ tions, so that they may give reUable Information to the teater.
The cost of keeping recorda of the dairy herd Is one of the smallest Itemf of expense sttached to tbe dairj- farm, and wben once started^t is found to be simple, eaay and Interesting. Most Im¬ portant of all, n Is very profltableL
Digest and Assimilate
Nutrients in Com Cobs
Rxperlmenta indicate tbat it re¬ quires about as mucb energy to digest and aaslrallate the nutrients in corn¬ cobs as they will supply. If the meal mixture of the cow'a raUon la maae up of such feeds aa ground oata and bran, or they form a conalderable portion of the mtatnre, it wUl not pay to grind the cobs with the cora or to buy criisbed coracoba for mixing with the grain portion of tbe cow's raUoa It la doubtful whether, under any conUI- tion. It would be wise to. have the cobs ground separately for the purpose'oft Ughtening the meal porUon of th* cow's raUon.
