And on the other hand, lack of kindness is robbing Tar Heel dairymen of thousands of dollars annually, but since few dairymen keep milking records, they may never miss the money. Waugh points out that is is very easy to waste a quarter-pound of milk from a single cow at each milking. In one years' time this would amount to 182 pounds lost per cow. Valued at $6 per hun dred pounds, this is $10.92 a year, cow herd and you've lost over $1,000. Waueh points out that you can actually kick iV.ay this money. Cows don't like to be kicked, or otherwise mistreated. When they are, they kick back by withhold ing milk. They* also respond to kindness. "Why, you can almost get an extra quarter of a pound of milk simply by patting a cow on the back," Waugh says. Failure, to strip the cow is a nother practice that is costly to the dairyman, for Bossie holds back the best until the last. That last quarter of a pound of milk is richer in butterfat than what FOR CLEANING ? FORCED WARM AIR CIRCULATION ?

Gray, forester for Ag ricultural Extension Service of North Carolina Stale College, points out that there are thous ands of acres of. farmland in the State that is not suitable for cropping, tout which could be turned into profitable 1 invest ments toy planting 'such land in pine trees. There are three public nurs eries where forest tree seedlings are grown for distribution to Tar Heel farmers, farm youth and the general public. In some counties, up to 5,000 pine seed lings are available free of char ge. Your county agent has the details on this. The section of the State which you live will determine the kind of trees you should plant in those large openings in eisting forests, heavily cut-over or burn ed-over woodland, and broom sedge fields. Pines are recommended for up land soils, eroded hillsides, and and dry sites. Hardwoods de mand deep, rich moist but well drained soils. Mountain farmers will want to plant white pine except on steep dry southern and western slopes under 2,500 feet in elevation. Black walnut can be planted as individual trees in rich, well drained, wasted places about the farm. For an illustrated circular on forest tree planting,, see your cou"nty agent or write to the Publication Department, N. C. State College, Raleigh, for Ex tension Circular No 371. "Plant Fofest Trees." comes before. In Nprth Carolina, particularly, where the margin of profit is smaller than it should be, care less milking practices can mean the difference between success and failure as a dairyman. Most dairymen, however, don't keep any production records and don't know just where they might be losing money. What the use of such records can do is shown ?by Dairy Herd Improvement As sociation (DHIA) figures. The average North Carolina cqw in 1951, not under DlIlA testing, produced only 4,450f pounds of milk, which is danger ously close to the profit-loss mar gin. DHIA tested cows in the State, however, averaged 8,158 pounds of milk. All of which indi cates that farmers with a know ledge of what practices are un economical. and what cows are not producing, can remedy the practices and replace unproduc tive stock with high producers.
