At least three-fourths of the dairy cows in the nation are underfed at some time durihg the year. This cutting off the top of the ration cuts off the top of the milk which' the cow would otherwise produce and in which lies the pfofit. For the past two years the average annual production of the 25,- 000,000 dairy cows in thp United States has been only 161 pounds of butterfat a cow. The best onethird of Uncle Sam's immense dairy herd produced an average of 220 pounds of butterfat, the middle third averaged 157 pounds of butterfat a cow and the lowest producing herd, more than 8,000,000 cows, averaged only 106 pounds of fat a year. Into the board and keep of the poorest two-thirds of this vast herd, or more than 16,000,000 cows,' goes the productive power of an area of good land larger than the states of IUinois and Iowa combined, as well as the money and energy of a million farmers and their families. Reasons given for such low production are that many CQWS are not capable of making good production even if well fed, a large percentage of the bulls are unable to sire good production and many purebreds are poor producers. Furthermore there is much detrimental mixing of different breeds in the same herd. Then too, in addition to many heifers being poorly raised, both cows and heifers lack proper care in many instances. Despite this showing, great prog-' ress has been made in the breeding, feeding and care of dairy cattle in the past 30 ye&rs. We have learned that we can feed dairy cows well and much more economically on good continuous pasture during the summer and an abundance of good legume hay throughout the winter, if these are raised on good fertile soil and properly harvested and stored.

Main Street COMPANY TEACHERS OF GftADS SCHOOL RECEIVING NEXT YEAR CONTRACTS Teachers of the McHenry Grade school are receiving their contracts this week, all receiving a raise in salary, averaging from five to ten • per cent, which will bring the amounts to be paid, to a more even basis. Salaries of the teachers are being brought back to normal as rapidly as possible, following the depression cuts of Several years ago and have again reached a more satisfactory level. Whether or not all of the teachers will return for another year will not be ascertained until their contracts are returned to the board of education. Members of the grade school board met Monday evening with Dr. R. G. Chamberlin, newly elected president Of the board, presiding at the meeting. Following the business session the teachers met the newly organized school board and discussed their recent visit to the Winnetka schools, for a social half hour. E. H. Nickels was reflected secretary of the board members, who are Lester Sherman, George Johnson, H. E. Buch and Frank Meyer, with Dr. R. G. Chamberlin, president. The vacancy caused by the death of Math Steffes will be filled by a special election May 29 as announced elsewhere in this issue. It is pOor economy to bring horses through the winter in a thin condition and then attempt to put them in good flesh by feeding* liberally after the working season has begun, says W. H. Peters, chief of the animal husbandry division at University Farm, St. PauL Horses should maintain their weight or be in a gaining condition throughout the winter, P e t er s states, so that they will enter the spring work season in shape to furnish efficient animal power. They may be brought through the winter satisfactorily on low grade roughages, but farmers snould watch them carefully to ••£ that they are maintaining their weight. If not, the roughages should be supplemented by 6 to 9 pounds of farm grains daily for each animal. If good roufchages are available, the horses will remain in good condition with little or no grain--not over 4 pounds per horse daily. As soon as the horses are put to work, the grain ration for each animal should be increased to about IVa pounds of grain per 100 pounds of live weight. Grains may consist of corn, oats, other farm grains, or a mixture of them. Molasses may be substituted for a portion of the graiB( Peters says. "RunOut" Soils "Run out" soils, so caUed, are always low, in humus or vegetable matter. In the case of clay this usually results in an increased tendency to get hard or bake. The great probem, therefore, is to get back into the soil as much humus as will overcome this tendency. In clay soils, or in almost any soil, it is almost impossible to have too much humus. The trouble with a run out clay soil is to get something to grow on it that may be turned under and help loosen the soU up as weU as add to the humus. ^ • > » » » » • » » » » » » » » » » » » » • Births llrt.
