McGuire Tells of Gurnsey Breeders’ Association Meeti at Carlton. The annual meeting of the above |named association was held at Carl- |tom, Minn., on Jume 15th. This meet-| |ing marked the fourth year of the as |sociation and while its actual mem- bership has not greatly increased dur ing thistime, the numper of pure bred animals owned by the members of the association has, and its work and influence bes increased until now it is ready to announce its purpose as a permanent organization. |. As the name signifies the associa tion has for its purpose the breeding of Guernsey cattle or more properly speaking, the breeding of dairy cattle. "The Guernsey breed was selected be- cause this breed seems best for the conditions of the country, and only jreason that greater results can be secured by combining on one breed, than by a division on many breeds. A roll call at the annual meeting showed that there are over 225 regis- tered Guernsey cattle owned by mem! bers of the association, and several | fundred grades. | The herd records kept of milk | and butter production during the year showed some remarkable Te- sults. The highest official record was made by a two year old heifer. In one year she gave 10 670 pounds of milk and 494.87 pounds of butter fat, | equal to 393,84 pounds of butter. The| heifer that made this wonderful rec- ord is owned by the president of |the association, Geo. C. Cooper, who | lives just across the line in Wiscon-| isin. She is one of a herd of twelve, H | imported from the Guernsey Island and her record shown that the feed ‘and climatic conditions of northern | Minnesota and northern Wisconsin {are not unfavorable to the highest dairy producer. Records presented Dy members showed that farmers }who have used pure bred sires of th |Guernsey breed have made valuable improvement im their herds by grad- ing up from their common cows. fcifers off the first cross are more than 50 pounds of butter a year bet- (ter than heifers from the same cows and scrub sires. With the second cross over 50 per cent of the calves | have all the appearance of pure bred animals, showing how quickly a far- ‘mer can breed up his herd for all |practical purposes without having to \puy pure bred females. | The association is now prepared to, distribute breeding stock in consider- able numbers and many ask why the | {Guernsey breed of cattle in pre- ference to the other excellent breeds (The answer is this. The timbered section of northern Minnesota and / morthern Wisconsin is primarily 4 dairy section. The acres under the plow from which winter feed can be |produced are few and every ton of | | |feed grown must be converted into the highest possible value. Feed | converted into butter by a good dais, cow will bring the farmer five times ‘gs much profit as if the same teed \had been converted into beef by a beef animal. Since winter fred is scarce the beef animal then is out |of the question except where the far- (mer may have large natural meadows ‘Then the question arises: Which dairy breed? This depends upon whether milk, chese or butter is to be the chief product sold. [ft has {been found that butter is the chief | product and this ‘being the case the |dairy breed that will produce butter ithe cheapest is the best breed for | |the farmer. The Guernseys have | but they give a large quantity of |rich colored milk. They are quiet in disposition, easy to handle,:and the The grade ‘Guernsey cow has proved highly ‘satisfactory to farmers who have taken up this breed and the demand | breeding of pure bred stock is profit- | able for those who engage in it. The Guernsey Breeders association is ready to assist the farmers to ward better dairy stock. The officer of the association are as follows: President, Geo. C.
