Dairymen Profit by Cow Testing.
of Berwick, spent a
Fred
Centre county dairymen can prac-
tically double their profits from the
cows by adopting cow test association
methods, says the Larrowe Institute
of Animal Economics. The average
test association cow in Pennsylvania
produces 2943 pounds more milk than
the cow not in association work.
A glimpse of what ordinary farm
cows will do when subjected to cow
test association conditions and prac-
tices, is to be had from the report of |-
the Wayne county cow testing asso-
ciation, covering the entire herd of 45
cows on the Institute Research farm
at Redford, Michigan. These cows
were such as any farmer can pick up
with no previous record, and during
the year were subjected to the many
vicissitudes of experimental work for
which the Institute herd is maintain-
ed. Yet figured for the cow test year,
and including dry periods, the aver-
age production of the entire herd of
45 cows was 10,003 pounds milk and
336 pounds butter fat. This is fully
638 pounds milk above the average
production for cows in this county.
The ten high cows in the herd range
in milk production from 11,591 pounds
to 28,774 pounds, and a butter fat
production of from 445.8 pounds to | Sf

826.3 pounds. The: profit over feed
costs for these ten high cows for the
year, range from $124.14 to $293.30.
Cow testing associations are the
greatest influence for good within the
dairy industry, according to Charles
Staff, secretary of the Institute. “By
the use of the milk scale and the Bab-
cock test the spotlight is thrown on
each cow’s record, enabling the dairy-
man to weed out the unprofitable ani-
mals and to feed the remainder ac-
cording to known production. By
comparing the records of dam and
daughter, promoting the ownership of
better sires, encouraging the use of
proved sires, and teaching the advan-
tages of feeding a satisfactory, well-
balanced ration, cow testing helps the
dairyman ‘build up a high production
herd of profitable cows bringing him
returns far beyond the small cost of
carrying on the cow testing work.”
Sesqui Honor Given to Harmonica
Band.
Philadelphia has become a center of
interest in the mouth organ through
the recognition recently given to its
Harmonica band as the official band
of the Sesqui-Centennial Exposition.
The home city of the band was lately
the objective of a pilgrimage on the
part of six boys from Dayton, Ohio,
tho came not only to perfect the tech-
nique of the harmonica but to imbibe
the spirit of the movement of which
Philadelphia is the fountain head. The
boys made a three weeks’ stay as the
representatives of two Dayton news-
papers and of the Music Club of Day-
ton and Mrs. E. A. Deeds.
As guests of the Harmonica band,
the Dayton boys were officially wel-
comed by Mayor Kendrick, of Phila-
delphia. They also assisted in the
dedication of the Ohio building at the
Sesqui-Centennial, at which time they
played for Gov. Vic Donahey, of Ohio.

Moving Lights Draw Best.
People are like moths in their pro-
clivity for lights, and a recent experi-
ment by an electric illuminating com-
pany proved that a moving colored
light attracts more attention than a
still light. Two identical electric
bulletins were set up to make the
test. A revolving disk of colored
lights drew larger crowds than either
of the other signs.
