LESS COWS AND MORE PROFIT.
WHAT GOOD METHODS DO. . In hundreds of cases we have seen one farmer making double and sometimes three or four times the net profit over his neighbour and both patrons of the same creamery. Sometimes we would find one man getting as much money from a herd half the size of his neighbour. We never knew such an instance where the most successful man was the ignorant, the’most careless, and the most indifferent. A great many dairymen have tremendous faith in knowing as little as possible about their business, in reading' and studying scarcely any. But strange to say, our census taker don’t find the best producing cows-among that class of farming, and yet they are rock rooted in the faith that that is the way to make money with cows. Queer, isn’t it ? —“ Hoard’s Dairyman.”
