'When the Dairy Act, relating to paying for milk by test at cheese fac- torles, comes into force there will be an incentive for patrons to select and breed their herds for butter-fat pro- duction. Under the old method of paying according to quantity, the patron with the low-testing herd was pald more than hig milk was really worth for making cheese, while the high-testing milk was sold below value, Numerous tests have been made which prove beyond a doubt that there is nothing fair in paying for milk, according to quantity for cheese-making purposes. A differ. ence of one-half per cent. in the test makes a difference of twelve cents in the Value of cheese made, from 100 pounds of milk whén cheese is sell ing at fifteen cents a pound. No dairyman wants to profit at "the expense of his neighbor, and yet in many factory sections this is ex- actly what has been taking place Evidently low-testing herds are in the majority or paying on a quality basis would have been universally adopted long ago, and there would have been no need of legislation in order that justice might be meted out to all patrons of factories. The new Act #8 in the interestg of the dairy industry, and instead of there being only a few high-testing herds in a factory district as at present, it will tend to raise the average test and incidentally the re turns from the dairy herds. Dairy men and cheese makers should co- operate and do all in their power to sm mr The difference between the poor feeder and the good stockman is quite apparent from a glance at the herds now on pasture. The poor feedér is the loser every time, When sowing mangels late, sprout Nn. A es rag promote paying for milk according to quality. If the herd gives a low average test, there is a way of im- proving it. True, the test of the present herd cannot be raised, but by using a bull from hight-testing ancestors the offspring usually prove to be better than their dams. The easiest and most satisfactory way of obtaining a high-testing, high=pro- ducing herd is to weigh and test the milk from each cow regularly, then have the heifers from the best. At- tention must be paid to the breeding of the "herd sire. He is considered to be half the herd, and if his ances- tors were only average the offspring cannot be much better, By paying attention to breeding, the average yield and quality of milk per cow will be much highe than it is at the present time, If the average is raised by 1,000 pounds of milk per cow per year, it will increase the profit by at least ten dollars with out additional expense, unless it is in the cost of the sire. The aver- e it will be with Increased, and we beliey done, When the dairyman milk testing three per cent, twelve cents per hundred pounds less than his neighbor who sells 3.5 per cent. milk, he will soon begin to ap- ply the ways and means for bring- ing his herd up to the 3.5 per cent, or even higher test. It isn't a mat- ter of improved stabling or special- ly-prepared feed that makes the dif- ference. It is the breeding that counts --Farmer's Advocate the seed before sowing.
