The Weekly reporter visited the
new Elmwood Farms Dairy and met
Mr. J, A.J Bartflett, superintendent
and caretaker of the dairy.
Mr. Bartlett, dairyman of wide ex
perience in the business, who has
worked at dairying from Canada to
Louisiana, the nearest places being in
Bertie and Camden Coimtipn i;vl
with Mrs. Bartlett and their children
m a neat little white house a short
distance from the new dairy.
The Guernsey herd Wftfl urni finer in
the lot near the barn to be milked
wnen the reporter arrived.
How many Guernseys are there
nerey the reporter asked Mr. Bart
$ lett.
"Thirty-four there in the lot, all
fresh," he answered, "with four
v. more to arrive before the dairy opens
v officially. Across the road in the
," pasture are 17 more; these are
f young cows."
"Are they all registered t" wna t)m
next question (EQmwood Farms is
;. the only Guernsey Dairy east of
. Durham).
"More than half of them are," Mr.
t; Bartlett answered. "They came from
( the western part of the State near
Mocksville.
Bring them in," he called to a
Negro helper.

Many of them were well-behaved
. . . others were a little stubborn
about sticking their heads through
the stanchions. When the stanchion

around the cow's neck) the Guernsey

Finally, twenty of the thirtv-four
cows were in their proper stalls, and
Mr. Bartlett began brushing and cur
rying. The helner washed off the
udders and the milking began. It is
about a two-hour job.
Many members of the herd, Mr.
Bartlett said, when they become ac
customed to the place, wild always
pick a particular stall. One of them,
a brown and white, has been hurrying
to the same end stall ever since she
came to Elmwood.
