In the winter months the require ments for production were;- Concen trates, 38.6 pounds; dry roughage, 66.8 pounds; silage and other succulent roughage, 147.6 pounds; hauling and grinding concentrates, $0.03; beddixig 20.3 pounds; human labor, 2.5 hurs; horse labor, 0.3 'hour; overhead and other costs, $0.385. It has been generally believed that the cost of producing milk and con siderably higher in winter than in sum mer; and while this holds true as far as the gross cost is conterned, the figures obtained in this investigation show that the net cost of producing 100 pounds of milk from November to April was only 1.8 per cent higher than the cost from May to October, inclusive, and that the total cost varied only slightly from month to month with each of these seasons. This small difference between net costs of production during winter and summer is largely due to the greater credit allowed for manure during the winter season. The price received for the milk, however, fluctuated sharply from month to month. Further details on requirements for milk production, including such factors as cost of keeping a cow for one year, cost of keeping a bull, proportion of work performed by each class of labor, -percentage relation of various factors in the cost of production, and other de tails, are presented in Department Bul letin 858, Requirements and Cost of Prioducing Market Mil kin Northwest ern Indiana. which may be obtained from the United States Department of Agriculture on request. ADVERTISE IN THE TIMES COAL OUTLOOK MUCH -RIGHTER Washington, Aug. 8.--A bright pic ture of the national coal situation is painted by the geological survey in figures made public today, covering coal production and transportation for the week of July 31. Despite a decrease ii production of 1,523,000 tons as compared with the previous week, clue to the strike of mine laborers in Illinois and Indiana, the end of July found bituminous pro duction since the beginning of the year to have reached 302,527,000 tons, an icrease of 44,500,000 tons Qve rthe amount mneld up to July 31 last y- ar. Anthracite production also compares favorably with 1919, having reached ~50,57,O00 tons on July 31, as com..d ~pared with 47,U07,000 tons at the endI of July of 191i.
