those  farmers  of  the  first  class  mentioned, 
except,  yon  will  have  a  few  purebreds  to 
sell,  which  you  will  probably  in  time  go 
into  entirely,  when  you  can  see  the  de¬ 
mand  for  the  good  ones,  while  the  poorer 
ones  you  can  still  turn  off  for  beef,  the 
same  as  if  you  were  keeping  grades.  By 
farming  in  this  way  you  will  change  from 
the  method  of  dilapidation  of  the  soil,  to 
one  of  “building  up,”  which  means  much 
to  you  and  the  future  generation  of  fann¬

study  the  situation  carefully  from  your

The  Jackson  Cooperative  Cow-Testing 
Association  of  Tioga  Co..  Pa.,  began  its 
year's  work  August  1,  1915.  There  are 
less  than  400  cows,  which  are  about 
equally  divided  between  Holsteins  and 
Jerseys.  During  the  month  ending  Jan¬ 
uary  31  there  were  21  cows  that  made 
40  pounds,  or  over,  of  butterfat.  The 
average  production  of  these  cows  was 
1114.0  pounds  of  milk,  average  test 
4.13%,  and  an  average  production  of 
46.04  pounds  of  butterfat.  Of  this  num¬ 
ber  11  were  Holsteins,  eight  were  Jer¬ 
seys,  and  two  scrubs.  The  highest  pro¬ 
ducer  was  a  grade  Jersey,  which  made
