also interesting to. note that he can
tell you the production of every cow
in his herd because at regular inter
vals the milk from every cow is
dreighed.
“We are firmly convinced that thesw
examples represent the reasons why
some of our so-called dairymen are
not making profits from cows.
VNo matter how long the growing
season or how favorable th* climate,
we have no advantages in feeding
dairy cattle unless we provide for
growing a large part of our feeds at
home. The ledger won’t show a credit
on the right side so long as we con
tinue to milk poor cows and spend all
of our income to buy high-priced
feeds, to produce more milk, to buy
more feed. It can’t be done.” '

EMPTY AND FULL PRISONS
America, struggling with its ever-
increasing crime problem, presents a
marked contrast to England. Alfred
Nutting, of the staff of the American
consulate general at London, has com
piled some interesting facts based on
English criminal statistics. He finds
that, since 1914, more than 20 prisons
in England and Wales, practically a
third of the total, have been closed.
There are now only 40 prisons in use
in the country, and they are not fully
oecupi#!. *■’
American prisons in many locali
ties are overflowing. According to
the Department of Justice, federal
prisons have had to farm put prison
ers to state penitentiaries and the lat
ter too often are already overcrowded.
Some' of the crime wave has been
blamed on the unrest t)iat follows
war, but England should be suffering
from that quite as much this country.
England also has a difficult unem
ployment problem which might well
expected in increase crime.
Of course, empty prisons might
simply mean that all the criminals
were being allowed to remain outside
pursuing their misehevious course.
r But that is less the case in England
than it is. here where so many crimi
nals are never convicted,-or if con
victed, are pardoned or paroled by our
governors long before they have paid
the penalty for their crimes.
That, many cities say, is .file chief
reason for so much • crime in this
country. Conviction and punishment
in England are said to be swift and
sure. So crime is lessened there. It
|s worth thinking about.
Take this tip and remeinber it—the
longer a grudge is nursed, the more
burdensome it becomes.
It is horrible but WELCOME.
Make war dangerous ENOUGH and
war will stop. Don’t believe the ig
norant millions who think that ^
thing always will be, because it ’al
ways HAS been.

PROFITABLE AND UNPROFIT
ABLE DAIRYING
L. T. Wells, extension dairyman of
Auburn University, Alabama, in a
recent report on dairying in that
state, shows clearly why one type of
fanner engaged in that industry suc
ceeds where another loses money. It
Is an interesting tale, and applies to
any other section of the South where
the production of milk and butter is
engaged in. The dairyman with good
cows, raising his own feed, with good
pastures included, is making the pro
fit. Following js an extract from this
report by the extension dairyman:
“One dairyman interviewed is milk
ing thirty cows. The cows are grade
Jerseys of rather ordinary type and
the entire herd is averaging slightly
more than a gallon and a half of milk
per cow per day. This milk is being
sold in a nearby city at 40 cents per
gallon, wholesale. Yet he claims that
he is not making anything.
‘‘Further investigation showed that
this man is feeding a commercial feed

with molasses, costing better than $60
per ton. His cows are on a good
pasture now, but no provision is being
made to supply any legume hay for
the winter. He hasn’t enough acreage
planted to crops to supply even coarse
feeds during the winter, to say noth
ing of concentrates
“The inevitable result is that his
cows will go thfodgh the winter on
high-priced feeds. Very likely they
will get only a small part of what
they need.
