IRISH SEARCH FOR 1,000 GALLON COW Milk Supply Too Scanty in| Winter Months Dublin, Irish Free State, Feb. 14. (M—Ireland’s new slogan is “Give us a 1,000 Gallon Cow!" Always a land of paradoxes, one of the Free State's principal ex- ports is butter—and yet great quan- tities of foreign butter are imported cvery year. The explanation is that there is! little winter dairying in lreland and that the Irish cow is too scanty with her milk supply. To meet this sityation a Cow Testing Associ has been formed, and is gradually improving the milk yield. In 1911 ihe average yield was only 430 gal lons per cow. It has been raiscd in 1927 to 557 gallons. Some Trish herds have shown un- der test an average yield of gallons annually, and an attempt is made to bring all cows up (o that standard. The movement universal support. The clergy are interesting themselves in it and the annual meeting at Thurles wa welcomed by the Archhishop of Cashel. The growth of the movement is gratifying. ~ Seven years ago it dealt with only 24,000 cows now it deals with 84,000, Scnator the Countess of Desart has been namied president and statcs the object to Le the making of Ircland a model for the world mn dairyinz. and, she added. even for Denmark which s Treland’s chief competitor in the ritish markets. The Dane can supply the with dairy products all th round while at present Ircland’s supply fails in winter. WELL SAID, GEORGL “Well, George,” said a country clergyman to a nold by the wayside breaking stones “that pile doesn't scem to gt any smaller.” “No vicar,”” replied the old man, “them stones is like the Ten Com mandments; you can go on broakin ‘em, but you can't get rid of ‘emn.” —Tit-Bits. niarkt year has man who saf | |IAP DIET CONSIDERS NAVAL CONS consmucnow { Premier on Post- | | INDBERGH TANES REST IN FLORIDA (Continued from First Page) ’ Members Query ‘ pone of Building or Exten- sion of Washington Agreement. 5 many another pretty demure girl.
