The Cash Cost of Milk. 
We claim no one who has to hire all his 
help as we have to, can produce milk for 
less than live cents per quart net for the 
Winter six months, and 4 y 2 cents for the 
six Summer months, with the present 
high price of feed and labor. You may 
take a farmer who has a good wife and a 
few children to help him. They can make 
a small profit, but it looks to us that for 
a man to work his wife and children on a 
dairy from 4 A. M. until 6 and 7 P. M.. 
for the small profit he gets out of his 
milk, he surely must have a grudge 
against his family, or is sore at the milk 
trust and taking his spite out on his fam¬ 
ily. 
You will also find some farmers who 
would not protest if the milk buyers put 
the price of milk to two ceuts per quart. 
I will give you our experience. Last 
Winter we bought tin Orange County, N. 
Y., farm, and a good one at that, and 
with this farm we bought a few good 
grade cows. The man we bought from 
pointed out all the cows he said were 
good, and they were just as he said. The 
ones lie said were no good we sold to the 
shipper. 
Then we bought about 50 head of cows 
and heifers from a cow dealer, strangers 
(o us. Out of those 50 head there were 
three cows which did not suit ns. The 
dealer gave us a chance to pick out of 
about 30 head three- other cows, and the 
ones he took back he shipped to Jersey 
City to be killed. After we got these 
three cows home and put in our herd, we 
had 50 good grade cows; we are sure 
no dairy ever had 50 better ones, in New 
York State or any State, and we still 
have them. But this is what they lost 
usJanuary, February and March, 
$4.7254 (help very poor and poor man¬ 
agement for those three months). April, 
May and June the profit was $1.2991; 
July, August and September the loss was , 
$67.56. Total loss for the nine months, 
1913, was $4.1029. 
As to our help, no one could get any 
better than we have had in the last six 
months, and wages very reasonable for 
such help. Now why should not a milk 
producer make a kick at such low prices 
as the milk buyers pay? One who has 
to hire all his help must got more for 
milk or quit the milk-producing business, 
or work it as we have don*' at a great 
loss. The great trouble wtih many milk 
producers is. they do not know what it 
does cost to produce milk, but we know 
that a farmer who has all his help to hire 
cannot produce milk for less than 4R, 
and five cents. Why should the milk 
buyer drop his buying price for February 
and March? It costs just as much or 
more to produce milk in those two mouths 
as it does in any other Winter month. 
You never see the milk trust drop its 
retail price. The milk trust, no doubt, 
sells a great deal of its milk to big 
steamship companies, hotels and packers 
at a very low figure, but these can afford 
to pay more for milk and cream than the 
consumers can. It is very strange, but 
nevertheless it is true, and how are you 
going to change it? « s

A verdict for $16,800 was directed to

the Supreme Court tit Binghamton, N. Y.. 
on r l intraday in tin action brought by the 
State of New York .against Nathan Ab¬

milk dealers, whom the State accused of 
skimming the cream from 168 cans of 
milk. Evidence that the cream was taken

1411, :t similar ease was tried, resulting 
in a verdict of $50 a can on 336 cans.

Larro-feed is guaranteed to make 
your cows give 
More Milk ^ It - S a straight forward , 
sweeping guarantee— more milk 
or your money back. It goes even 
farther if you are not satisfied, after using 
200 lbs. of LARRO-FEED, that it will pay you * 
better profits than any other feed you’ve ever used— 
your money will be refunded without a question. 
Test LARRO-FEED any way you choose, but in order to 
get decisive results we suggest this method: 
Here is the Test 
Choose any one cow and record her milk yield each day for 
one week, on her present ration. Then change her over 
to LARRO-FEED gradually and allow her a week to 
get used to it. Then again record her daily milk yield, 
for a week. Compare your figures. If you’re not con¬ 
vinced that LARRO-FEED will increase your cow’s 
milk flow, lengthen their milking periods and keep 
them in better health—just say so and get your 
money back. 
If it isn’t a good feed, would we dare make such 
a guarantee ?

To promote general prosperity and their 
own business, bankers in many parts of the 
country are buying purebred Ilolstcins by 
the carload and selling them on time to the 
farmers of the community. 
Every year it becomes clearer that with 
large yield cows the cost of milk and butter 
production can be brought down to a point 
that makes dairying profitable. 
A herd of purebred Holsteins is an in¬ 
vestment that combines safety with large
