What should he do, with his limited- means, to get somewhere in the dairy business? Thomson made five points of his recommendations as follows: 1 • Have a system of records of production preferably D.H.I.A. and Study them continuously. 2--Raise his own replacements from cows of good cow families and good test and production and with ability to pass their characteristics on to their calves. 3--Registration gives no bull the right to be used in any dairy herd. He should be registered, of course, but should be only from a cow with above average test and production for the breed and h$s been found to pass her good characteristics on to her the recommendations of the iHtc nois * Legume-Grass program aad feed all the hay and phitare every Animal will eat at all times. A pedigree as long as ytkur arm and production records way up there will not do any good without all the feed the herd will eat all the time. Grain should be fed to keep the cows and growing stock "coming" all the time. 5 -- Use every spurse of information available.
