Show DAIRYING ON BUSINESS BASIS Farmers Must Use Milk Scales, Tester and Record Book Keep Account With Each Cow. In order to put dairying upon a business busi-ness basis every farmer needs to use the milk scales, the tester and the record rec-ord book. Farmers must come to this proposition and do a little simple bookkeeping book-keeping to know where they are. Every successful business man has a ledger to guide him in his transactions. transac-tions. Every dairyman needs to enter a separate account with each of his cows so that he may have an indicator to tell him at the end of the year just how much feed each has consumed, the amount of milk produced and the percentage it tests. Too many farmers of this country are still keeping scrub cows, feeding and milking them twice each day, fourteen times each week and sixty times each month. |
