Children are the riches of the poor ; but if you get them interested in 

 (the dairy they will help lift the mortgage from the farm. 



The shoe knows whether the stocking has holes ; the farmer should 

 know where the leaks are that rob him of the profits from his dairy, and 

 should set about mending them. 



Cleanliness is next to godliness ; this applies as much to the cow 

 stable as to the front parlor. 



It is hard for an empty sack to stand straight; but still harder for a 

 lazy man to succeed in the dairy business. 



We'll take the good will for the deed. Did you ever hear the cows 

 say that when you neglected to properly feed and water them? 



Penny wise and pound foolish is the woman who still uses old-fash- 

 joned, out-of-date dairy utensils. 



'Tis good in every case you know 

 To have two strings unto your bow ; 

 Some clucking hens and a brooding sow 

 increase the profits from the dairy cow.
