It kept running through my mind while I looked over those mo dern layouts in Newberry Coun ty--and hea^d, about some of the others over the state. This business is a science now. Feeding, milking, handling, keep ing the books. Every phase has to be exact. A man may not have to be a college graduate to stay in dairying, but he’s got to be a real manager. That’s why we wouldn’t have made it. We just weren’t too par ticular. Like most everybody there in Williamston we had to run a cow. We were town folks. Had no pas ture. but this didn’t stop us from [ 7-Oz. 6-12 1 Insect Repellant Tanya TANNINE BUTTER Reg. 1.50 79c l 19 4-Oz.

With 10 children, there was no other way to put milk on the table. Wasn’t a whole lot of science about our dairying though. If a ball game ran a little late it just meant the trip to the pasture was delayed. Milking had to wait. For feeding we threw some cot ton seed hulls and meal together in a tin tub. Just enough to keep the old girl still long enough for somebody to take her milk. How different now. That’s what I was thinking as Harold Pitts wheeled us through his spanking new dairy layout at Newberry. Cows are pushed through the milking barn in al most assembly line fashion. Feeding stations have dial sys tems. Rations are figured ac cording to the individual cow’s need. The dial is set and feed pours in automatically. Machines do the milking. Care ful production figures are kept on each animal. Health Standards have to be observed all the way on milk handling. And it’s this way throughout the milking business in this state. All of the people who have stuck with it have strained all the way, pouring money into it to keep systems modernized and mechanized. The biggest bene ficiaries, it seems, have been the consumers. Through their sweat the milk people have squeezed a high de gree of efficiency into the over- EtWufe LAURENS PLAZA SHOPPING CENTER Open Every Day 9:30a.m.til 9p.m. >■ Be ready for the hot summer ahead.

In the last 20 years, authorities say, dairymen have raised the production of milk cows more than 67 percent This is a national figure. But dairy ing is one area where S. C. opera tors don’t lag behind. They can’t. Through increased efficiency and automation, milk production per man hour of labor has been increased more than two and a half times during that 20-year period. This has kept milk prices down some. They’ve gone up, certain ly, but not as much as on some other fronts. Calvin B. Reeves, associate Extension specialist in dairy science, says if today’s housewife paid for the nutrient value of milk at current prices of other foods it would cost nearly 50 cents a quart. Comparing that with the actual price speaks well for the industry and the people in it. They de serve tribute for a job well done, and observance of June as dairy month is one way to do it.
