The figures supplied bv tne national department show that we have made a steady gain in milk fat production and that the members of our cow. testing: associations are gradually re placing their herds on a more effi cient p-o luction basis. The increase in fat production during, the past three years from 207 pounds to iSOd pounds is a record to be proud of. We arynow within three pounds of the national average " Mr. A rev says persist. 'lit cu!l;ng is partly responsible for this rapid increase in jiroduction. During the past three years from ten to twelve per cent ii the cows on test were culled each year because they Were unprofitable.

In pinning, re move as, much of the did wood as possible and save a large number of the one-year canes. haeh vine, however, should be handled individ ually as too heavy cutting on i Vig orous plant has a tendency -do upset the balance of the vine.
