ILLINOIS STATE DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION. 053 



one of the best of the dairy plants in the state from a sanitary standpoint. 

 The work in the field is being done by Mr. Glover in the dairy sec- 

 tion. He is testing herds as follows, visiting each every seventh week: 

 H. B. Gurler, DeKalb 65 cows tested 



F. M. Barber, Greenwood 25 cows tested 



J. M. G., Greenwood 30 cows tested 



Ray Wilson, Greenwood 30 cows tested 



M. S. Campbell, Genoa 18 cows tested 



W. C. Taft, Rockford 18 cows tested 



Chas. Gilkerson, Marengo 10 cows tested 



S. Seward, Marengo 6 cows tested 



W. R. Hostetter, Mt. Carroll 20 cows tested 



H. M. Phillips, Lena 20 cows tested 



S. M. Malinx, Damascus - 15 cows tested 



E. G. Heim, Freeport 6 cows tested 



Smith, Aurora 7 cows tested 



J. F. DeGarmond, Genoa 6 cows tested 



G. E. Burland, Woodstock 30 cows tested 



J. F. ; Hordel, Lena 10 cows tested 



J. A. Phillips, Lena 9 cows tested 



H. J. Younger, Stillman Valley 30 cows tested 



Making a total of 355 cows being tested without any expense to the 

 owners excepting what little time required to weigh the milk, etc. 



This method of testing cows every seventh week by a representative 

 of the experiment station cannot help but add untold benefit to the dairy 

 industry of the state. Applications have been coming in from dairymen 

 to Mr. Glover to test their herds thot many have had to be refused on ac- 

 count of lack of time. 



Thus the light is breaking upon the dairymen, that to be sucessful in 

 his business he must know his individual cows so that the poor cows 

 may be weeded out, this is perhaps one of the most important matters to 

 be considered by the up-to-date dairyman.
