THE PERMANENCY OF DAIRY
FARMING.
(By H. E. COLBY, Editor of Kim-
ball's Dairy Farmer.)
In the latest report of the secre-
tary of Agriculture tils statement Is
made: “The dairy cows are the only
farm animals tdr which an increase
of prices Is Indicated.”
The general trend of the report
Indicates that the dairy farmer has
gone through the year in better fi-
nancial condition than many, of his
brothers. This high (Recommenda-
tion for the dairy industry Is based on
data carefully gathered and facts
that cannot be contradicted.
Everywhere men are beginning to
appreciate the stability of dairying.
The little farm that looks to the
dairy cow tor the main cource of In-
come suffers less from market fluc-
tuations and climatic changes than
work havoc with the other industrial
and commercial lines.
So long as there are human
mouths to feed, so long as there is
soil to till, dairying will be one of
the most permanent industries. It
is well established because the dairy
cow is the most economical producer
of human food. At the University of
Missouri an experiment was conduct-
ed showing the comparison between
the carcass of a 1,250 pound beef
steer and the yearly product of a
dairy cow. The total amount of pro-
tein, fat, sugar and ash yielded by
the carcass was 548 pounds, while o
that yield by the milk of .the dairy [ J
cow was 2,218 pounds. The whole ' ’
of the milk solids whs digestible. ».->44<,4-+*4,4,+4,4,4,4><,4-4,4,44,4"},4,4>+4*++4,+++4,4,4,+++4‘**4>+++++*^>4
while a large portion of the carcass
was not. This demonstrates the ef-
ficiency of the cow as a producer of
food for men.
With land values soaring as they
are In all i>arts of the country to-
day, the farmer must turn to the
work that will yield the largest In-
come upon the cash equivalent of
his holdings. The dairy cow is one
means towards which he instinctive-
ly turns, for he has learned that she
can be his salvation.
A few days ago a farmer sold 15
yearling steers in one of the leading
corn belt states These calves—they
were scarcely larger—were being put
[on the market In the miserable condl

May vivill not live. Is there any

When I was tow-headed, freckled-
faoed boy, the "gang” with whom I
was wont to viait the old swlmmln’-
bole used to declare that anyone who
tvent swimming during "dog-days”
was sure to be afflicted sooner or
later with rablee. Some of the more
timid were scared away from the
cooling water during the fateful
period. Most of us, however, kept
right on in the face of threatened af-
fliction. Some years have gone by
since those happy days, and I never
heard of any of the old crowd pas-
sing away from

supers tuition Is in the same category
as th» dog-day yarn. It may deter
a few unthinking ones from raising
broods of chicks, but the majority
of folks will go right along Just as
they did In April—with precisely the'
same results.
May-hatched chicks have exactly
the same chance to live as those
breaking the shell any other month
of the year—all conditions being
equal. The best way to convince the
doubting ones, however, is to try it

BUFF ORPINGTONS.
From Farmers’ Fireside Bulletin:
When I came to look around for an
addition to my poultry yard, at a time
when the Interest in ducks was Just
ripening into a craze," I decided that
it would be ducks, and then the ques-
tion of the breed bad to be settled.
It was a very hard matter to decide
this all-important question, for the
reason that the breeders and boost-
ers o? the Indian Runners were oc-
cupying the center of the stage, and
while 1 have no fault to find with the
Indian Runner Ruck, yet 1 did not
fancy them to the extent that 1
thought necessary to make a success
with them in the breeding yard. As
I have always been partial to buff
color, and am now breeding Buff
Orpington chickens, 1 naturally fell
into an investigation of the duck by
that name, and possessing the same
beautiful color, and It took me only
short time to find that it was the
duck for me. That Is the story of
the beginning, and I deem it permfs-
sable for me to give the members of
this association some of the facts I
developed that helped me to a con-
clusion.
First: They have been proven the
best layers of all the feathered tribe,
of whatever name, outclassing all the
chickens and the much-boosted In-
dian Runner ducks In two success-
ive egg-laying contests in Australia.
They not only lay In Australia, but
they lay in America, and every month
in the year finds them shelling out
the fine, large, pur© white eggs for
the men and women who give any
attention whatever. They are especi-
ally good winter layers.
Second: As the table fowl they
cannot be surpassed, having a most
delicate flavor, tender and Juicy, and
much sought for by those who de-
mand the best there is In meat The
young ones may be brought up to
two and a half dr three pounds in
eight or nine weeks with ease, and
all who have had the opportunity of
sampling them say they are the best
in the world.
Third: Their size had much to
do with my taking them up.
are twice the size of Indian
ners and nearly as large as the Pe-
kin—just the right size for an all-
They are extreme!)
light eaters, and make very little
noise; not half as much as Pekin and
Indian Runners.
1 cannot begin to enumerate the
many good qualities of these ducks
within the short time that has been
slotted me, but I want lo mention
one other thing that attracts all who
see these ducks, and what had much
to do with my selection. That is
their beautiful color. A buff duck
Is a decided novelty, and they have
to be seen to be fully appreciated.
In carriage, these ducks are between
the erect, racy looking Indian Run-ltlon because of the scarcity of feed
ner and the flat squabby Pekin—a
happy medium that makes them all
that can be desired In a duck.
Now, permit me to sum up
nut-shell the foregoing:
They are the best layers,
Light eaters,
Medium size,
Layers of white eggs,
Unexcelled table fowl.
Quiet and easily controlled.
Beautiful to look at.
After satisfying myself that
was the breed I wanted, I at once set
about to get my foundation stock
from .the foremost breeder In the
United States, and that is what I did.
I now have on my yards some of the
best quality there la In the country,
and believe that the eggs I offer my
customers are from the best stock In
America. The individual breeders
now to be seen on my yards will
compare very favorably with those
in any breeder’s yards, anywhere. I
considered it very important to start
right, and that Is wny I spent so
much money in getting the proper
foundation, v
I thapk you for your kind atten-
tion. - - LOGAN KNAPP,
