Dairy farming, which is receiv-
ing the nation’s salutes during
June Dairy Month, is not the
same business it was when fath-
er was a boy.
One primary change i.s the
growing popularity of fluid skim
milk and low fat milk In 1951
low fat milk was introduced to
the consumers, first in some
Mid-Western markets. Now it ia
a popular food item in nearly ev-
ery grocery store in the country.
Low fat milk ordinarily contains
about 2 tiercent butterfat. Skim
milk, of course, is still lower ini J
butterfat content. Minimum but-1
terfat for whole milk runs from
regulations.
Another clmnge in dairying:
is the feeding of less milk to far I
animals. Back in 1940, almost 1
19 million tons of milk and milk I
products were fed to animals on i
the farm where the milk was|l
produced. This quantity had i I
dropped to .7 million tons in I
1961. Comnu rcial e»lf feeds and |
milk replacera have become
niort and more popular lor ani-
mal feeding.
A nostalgic change is the grad-
ual disappearance of the milk
separator on the farm. Back in
t h <• 1930's, about 35 billion
pounds of milk were separated
each year on the farm. The
cream was sold and most of the
sk»m milk v.as f»d to livestock.
In 1901 only about 7
on the recent editorial in the
Bowie News concerning finan-
ces of thia County:
The writer of this editorial
lead? the people to believe that
the floods of 1957, were the
cause of the financial difficul-
ties tn tne south half of the
county. w .
We feel sure that the informer
forgot to state, that jn 1957, the
south half of the County, receiv-
ed $38,858.99 of Federal Disaster
Relief Funds, which was ample
tor the flood damage, while the
north half of the County receiv-
ed only $7,330.28.
These funds became available
through the co-operation of the
Commissioners Court, and assist-
ance of the Texas Higirway De-
partment's assitant engineer,
of the Bowie District, who made
the impartial survey, and we feel
that, being a local resident, he
would not do Precinct No. 2.
an injustice in making these a-
wurds.
The editorial also speaks of
Division of Tax Money:
The LAW says: it can be divi-
ded three ways: No. 1 - can be
spent in the precinct in which
it is collected, if this was done,
precinct No. 2, at this time re-
ceived 1 he most, then would
come No. 3, then No. 4 and last
would be No. L, and if this
method was used No. 1, could-
n’t even pay their salaries.
The majority of the Court does-
n't- feel that this would be a just
division, mw also that it would
be unjust to divide the money,
on the oasis of miles, and the
number of bridges, because if
we did so, No. 1, which does not
have any large towns, no rail-
roads ,nor industry and pays,
by far? the least amount of tax-
es, would get more money, than
some of the other precincts, and
we think it best to continue to
shter equal in all four pre-
cincts as it is now doing
We congratulate the City of
Bowie, and its citizens, on the
continued growth, new oil dis-
coveries and new industries, but
we wish to remind, that
north half of Montague County,
provided all the oil tax money
for 25 yeais, before there was
any oil nroduced in the south
part of the County.
r _Concerrung Hie transfer art
monies, that is mentioned, and
the order that was passed, is in
complete accord with the order
passed in 1957, by the public of-
ficials who the voters selected
to represent them and the ma-
jority of the court at this time.
