Milk Cows and Dairying. 



A further increase in numbers of milk cows on farms compared with a year ago 

 was shown by the January 1 (1925) estimate, which placed this increase at 16,000 

 head. The increase in dairying in Montana in recent years has not come about so 

 much in farms making milk production their principal operation, as it has in farms 

 which have come to milk cows for additional cash income, and as part of a plan 

 to diversify their program during recent years of low wheat prices.
