KEEPING COWS MEANS
$25,520 EXTRA INCOME
FOR THIS COUNTY
An added* income of $25,520 a
year is enjoyed by Transylvania
County fanners indirectly as a result
of keeping cows, according to the
L&rrowe Institute of Animal Econo
mics. This income is in the form of
a more fertile soil due to the manure
of the dairy cows in this > county.
On the basis of practically a $20.00
x'ertilizer valuation per animal per
year, this means a total of $25,520
added to the richness of the soil in
.his county every twelvemonth.
Manure is a source of the most
.aluable plant food obtainable, says
he Institute, but to preserve it at
ts highest value or efficiency, it
.hould either be put directly to the
fields each day or conserved until
;uch a time as the opportunity of
fers to spread it. Feeding trials
have proven that an ordinary cow,
?vhile putting from 15 to 18 per cent
>f the total energy of the feed she
consumes into milk, actually returns
to the soil 80 per cent of the ele
ments of soil fertility in her feed in
.he form of manure. This had led
many dairymen to discover that the
jurchrfse of good concentrated feeds
or their cows not only more that
,iays for itself in increased milk
production but that it also supplies
ecessary food to farm crops that
ire expensive when bought in the
?)rm of commercial fertilizer.

MRS. ALLISON WRITES
ORIGINAL POEM ON
GEORGE WASHINGTON
The following poem was written by
Mrs. J. M. Allison :
THEN AND NOW
George Washington had his washing
done,
By a ''nigger" as black as ink,
Named Annabelle, who drfew water
from the well
'Cause he didn't have a sink.
His house was lit by a tallow dip
That gave a yellow glow.
It shone with all its might when lit
at night,
But that was in the long ago.
His wife was the only match he bad,
His ttres were built by flint anil
steel
Struck by the hand of a scullery
lad,
Before Martha could get the ev
ening meal.
When he went to ride, he climbed
inside
Of a wonderful one "hoss" shay.
It was before the day of "the ?nter
as you pay,
And his horse was the color of a
bank of clay.
Coolidge's washing's done at Wash
ington,
Not by a nigger so lean,
But in a hurry, without any worry
In an electric washing machine.
His house ain't lit by a tallow dip,
But by an electric light
That shines so bright all through
the night,
And is such a wonderful sight.
Cal's grub is cooked in a big gas
range,
Now wojldn't old George think
that strange!
No wood to cut, no fire to make,
But my! the good things Grace
does bake.
When he goes to ride, he climbs in
side
Of a great big limosine,
That rides so fine all the time,
And runs by gasoline.
Mary Hume Breese Allison.
