. FIFTY-FIRST ANNUAL CONVENTION 41 



ful is that we don^t pull together, which reminds me of a 

 little story: There was a fellow and his wife out on the 

 road driving along and just ahead of them was a fellow 

 with a heavy load and a fine team and they were pulling 

 for all they were worth. This man and his wife were the 

 kind that were always nagging each other and the man said 

 to her: *'Why can't you and I pull together like that/' 

 '*We could," she said, "if there was only one tongue be- 

 tween us." 



Let's get our tongues wagging the same way. In our 

 organization work, let us not think of the things we have 

 undertaken and failed, but let us get together and do the 

 best we can. 



Now, I do not know whether you have gotten anything 

 of what I have said out here. I have tried to tell you in my 

 own way how I have attained a measure of success in this 

 business. If you have gotten anything out of it that will 

 make you like the business better, I shall be thankful. 



If you are in the dairy business and do not like it, sell 

 your cows and give it up. There are many other things you 

 can make a success of, so don't follow dairying if you do not 

 like it. With me, it is the best in the world. (Applause). 

 Chairman: Is there anyone who has any questions to ask 

 Mr. Dorsey? 



Question : What is a balanced ration for the cow when 

 you can't have silage? 



Mr. Dorsey: I think Mr. Fraser would be better qual- 

 ified to answer that question than I would. 



Mr. Fraser: I think it depends on what kind of hay 

 you were feeding. If you are feeding all alfalfa, you want 

 an entirely different grain ration. You get so much protein 

 and nitrogen in your legume hay. I can hardly give a very 

 specific instance. 



If you are feeding alfalfa and corn silage, you can feed 

 in addition to that linseed and corn meal. The advantage 

 of corn silage is its succulence, which is just as essential as
