Violet, a H-yeer-old, purewed Guernsey cow owned by J. C. * enney, internationally known mer-1 chant and agriculturist. < Belle Buoy's Violet was put oa on April 2nd, 1930, and was imlked steadily for 305 days. hor the first five and half months the , test period, sh? was milked twice a day and for the remaining elx and a half months, she was milked ?hree times a day. The total production during the 305-day period, was 17,235 pounds of milk and 96.7 pounds of butter fat. This exceeds the best previous production record by any cow over 12Vi years of age, all breeds included, by slightly over seven pounds of butter fat During the test period this record breaking cow was pastured day and night and during the winter months was fed all of the silage, wet beet pulp, mangels, alfalfa and clovermixed hay, very largely home grown, she would eat. Her average daily grain ration was eleven pounds and she consumed a total of 4,015 pounds of grain during the year period. At the beginning of the test, she weighed 1,260 pounds and at the finish, weighed 1,490 pounds. The importance of this record, according to the best dairy authorities, rests in proof of the continued high productive ability of the Guernsey dairy cow maintained under practical fa/rm conditions. 7 he usual age at which milk cows have heretofore been considered at | the peak of their productive capacity has been about 8 years. ' Treated from the viewpoint of dairy economics, Belle Buoy's Violet, at the age of 14 years, finished a tost during which she produced more than six times as much butter fat in the twelve months period as the average American dairy cow and over three times as much as the average top perfonmer in the most highly developed dairy centers. Belle Buoy's Violet Is figured as a prize winner in several large dairy shows, being the fpurth prize four odd QSnr and.A third prize junior A.

Penney said, "One of the policies adopted by "Jimrnie" Dodge, superintend ?t dt UNiMdiix Farms, is that of t treating mdk otmva g* * productive unit nUbjoct to til# tains regulations regarding profitable production as is any manufacturing1 plant. "Through a long and systematic campaign of proper hiding and | feeding, with unueoal oar* exercised in the selection of livestock, 1 feel ( that M i% Dodge haa afforded a worth, while demonetration of .what properly conducted dairy fanning can produce in the way of ptkifit-earning individual animals. "One of the present faults with dairying, as generally practiced throughopt the country, seems to be a lack of recognition of the fact that a dairy cow must be judged on the basis of iwhat she returns for her keep."

Good Potato Plants Are Very Scarce Clemson College, April 18.?Goo4 potato plants are vary scaive throughout Georgia, the principal source of these plants, according to L, P. Watson, extension horticulturist, in charge of the state sweet potato contest, and it seems likely that contestants and other formers in this state may have great difficulty in securing high-grade plants to meet their needs. Mr. Watson urges formers to got in touch immediately with their county farm agents, as he will be in frequent communication with the agents regarding sources of good plants. "The bcsft plants it is possible to obtain should be used," says Mr. Watson in discussing the importance of high yields of No. T potatoes. "Some very ippor strains of sweet potatoes were grown in the state in 1030. The use of sUch strains materially lessens.- the chances for success with this crqp."
