Increases Milk Yield 



Cow comfort is not the only feature of James equipment that increases milk 

 yield. 



Drinkmg cups, as shown m a recent mvestigation of 28 herds where milk 

 records were kept, increased milk yields 2.45 lbs. per day per cow, average. 

 This amounts to 490 lbs. a year which at $3.50 per 100 has a value of $1 7. 



Besides this, increased milk yields result through less sickness in the herd, 

 and fewer damaged udders. 



Less Need of Hired Help 



James equipment lessens your need of hired hands in two ways: It cuts 

 down the amount of work to be done and it makes barn work so much easier 

 that it becomes a task not too great for children's strength. 



Mr. S. P. Stevens, of Bartlett, Illinois, says of his experience: "By actual 

 test, two men can better and more quickly care for 90 cows in our new barn 

 outfitted complete by you than the same two men could care for 44 head on 

 the cement floor barn with ordinary equipment we previously used." 



Everywhere it is the same story — that James equipment cuts barn work 

 squarely in two. You know how much time is required to do your own barn 

 work and can figure for yourself just what that saving amounts to each year 

 in actual money, or in actual time saved for you. 



Keep the Boys on the Farm 



For many years the boys have been leaving the farm and population has 

 been rapidly moving from country districts to cities and towns; in many sec- 

 tions even before the war it had become very difficult to get hired men. 



Though wages on the farm have steadily increased and the work made 

 more attractive, the apparently greater opportunity and the allurement of the 

 city continue to draw from the rural population, making it harder every year 

 to obtain the help needed. 



James equipment does away with the most disagreeable features of barn 

 work, makes a boy's job of what used to be shirked by all the men, and 

 makes so attractive the work of caring for the cows that the young folks like 

 to do it. 



There is plenty of hard labor and enough disagreeable features in farm 

 life at the best; if you do not take advantage of the modern conveniences 

 and labor-saving devices and make dairy farming as pleasant and attractive 

 as working in factory or office, it is to be expected that the boys will become 

 dissatisfied and seek their life work in the towns and cities. 



Be Proud of Your Food Factory 



A dairy barn is a factory in which human food is manufactured. James 

 equipment makes possible cleanliness and sanitation, and transforms it into
