the money if they could have hit safe.

Licensed Milk Dealers.
District Health Officer Genge of
St. Johnsbury supplies this paper
with a list of the licensed milk deal
ers of the towns of -Barton, Brown
ington and Westmore. Every dealer
on the list has applied for the tuber
culin test and the herds will be test
ed as soonas possible. Anyone who
sells milk or cream whether from one
cow or from a large dairy to private
families, hotels, restaurants or stores
must have a license. Failure to com
ply with this regulation renders the
offender liable to prosecution.
It is thought that the public will
be interested to know how they may
safeguard themselves and their fam
ilies from milk from tuberculin cows.

Practical Farmers' Talk at Glover.
The Field day of Glover grange
was held Saturday, June 26th. Th
program was devoted to the care and
breeding of thoroughbred stock.
Fred Simpson, master of the eran re
read a paper on the subject, "The Im
provement of Stock." He said in
part, "Cattle at one time, not so long
ago weighed only 600 Dounds. Br
methods of careful breeding thev
were raised to 1200 pounds."
n.dwin Alexander followed with as
informal talk on the importance of
keeping high grade stock. He said.
"The man who keeps good stock is
bound to take better care of it taam
he will of scrub stock. Buy a reg
istered male and one good female of
the same breed make your choice
and don't keep changing the breed
it s the one that stays by that wins
the reward. Do away with any scruh
full bloods. Buy one outstanding in
dividual rather than half a dozem
poorer ones."
Mr. Root of Craftsbury told the
story of his herd of Jerseys which he
has been 30 years in raising. He
spoke of the importance of a goo4...
foundation in stock breeding. He
said, "Weed out the' scrubs, don't feed
too heavy, on nine pounds of grain a
day a cow ought to make a pound
and a half of butter a day. He sail
he never knew a man to buy . a" poor
cow or horse to advantage. Dont
think that the raising of thorough
bred stock has been overdone, it has
only just begun."
Carl Bean spoke on the Holsteia
breedr- He said he was fortunate in
his foundation cows, said he laid lots
of credit to the cow testing associa
tion. It is getting so that a sire
from a dam that has not been tested
is unsaleable, "Some say give them .a
cow and they don't care anything
about the pedigree. I want the pedi
gree but I want a little cow to re
with it. We don't pay enough atten
tion to our young stock. It doesnt
make any difference how good they
are, if you don't feed them they wont
grow. One thing about puTe grade
stock, you are feeding for individ
uality." Mr. Bean said his favorite
feed for calves was, 100 pounds ot
bran, 100 pounds oats, 100 pounds
hominy or cornmeal and 15 of lin
seed, fed dry.
Arthur Simpson of Lyndonvifle
spoke on the Milking Shorthorn. He
paid a tribute to the honesty of the
breeders of thoroughbred stock. He
said, "Pick your breed, pick the one
you like and the one that meets yonr
conditions, buy stock from herds that
are commercially profitable. Doat
buy cattle merely because they are
pure bred and! foecaujse the owner
is selling bull calves for $500 apiece.
Buy from dams with good shape
udders. Fashion in pedigree and fad
in color are fickle as the wind. Buy
individuals and producers, buy from
herds that are free from tuberculosa:
and abortion, uniformity to type Tn
your pure bred herd means much frr
the herd. "Keep records of produc
tion and encourage others to keep
records. Advertise your sarphw
stock in a good agricultural paper."
Mr. Simpson said he had good result
advertising in the New England
Homestead.
Don't forget to deal squarely if
you are in the purebred stock busi
ness. Then one sale means many
sales.
These men are practical breeders
I of experience and their words carried
.weight and conviction to their in-
f ereatprt hearer.
