Good Dairy Cows
Pay Best Profit
Ten good cows are more profitable
than 20 low producers.
In fact, low producers are often
an expense rather than a profit, de
clared R. H. Ruffner, head of the
animal husbandry department at
State College.
A cow giving six quarts of milk
a day just about pays for her feed,
Ruffner said. She pays nothing for
stable rent or for the labor required J
for her care nad milking.
But a cow giving 10 quarts of
milk daily will yield a net profit of
$40 a year. Ten such cows will pro
duce a clear profit of $400 a year.
Cows giving more milk produce an
even larger return.
The exact figure, of course, will
vary with local conditions, the price
of milk, and the cost of feed, Ruff
ner added.
Many dairymen who did not make
money last year are thinking of buy
ing highpriced cows. In many instances
they would do better to sell their
lowest producers and endeavor to
raise the efficiency of their better
animals.
Built Like an Automobile
You have never seen a mower like this

W/E are anxious to have ail at our friends
see the New McCocmick-Deering
No. 7 Enclosed-Gear Mower. We think it
is one at the finest pieces of farm equip
ment we have ever soldi
Everybody who has seen it says they
never had any idea that a mower could be
built as this one is.
For example: The entire operating
mechanism, including drive gears, differ
ential. and countershafts, is assembled
compactly in an oil-tight gear housing and
runs in a bath of oil. There are four
high-grade roller bearings. Operation is so
smooth and noiseless that you can scarcely
hear the light hum of the sickle!
Special oil seals at the ends of the main
axle and fly-wheel shaft, and the oil-tight
gear box prevent leakage and protect all
working parts against the entrance of dirt
and other abrasive materials. Floating
action of cutter bar provides ample play
without disturbing knife registration.
