Many from this sectfon are in at- tendance st the twenty-eighth annual convention of the Connecticut Dairy- men’s association, which opened Wed- nesday morning at Hartford_with an attendance of about 250. President H. G. Manchester of Winsted presided. The meeting opened with a song by a double _quartette from the Connecticut agricultural college. President Manchester introduced Mayor Edward W. Hooker to make an address of welcome, which was par- ticularly pleasing and elicited much applause. The response was made by Vice President Wilson H. Lee of New Ha- ven. “Keeping More Cows.” An address on “Keeping More Cows on Fewer Acres” was made by H. E. Cook, dean and professor of animal husbindry, St Lawrence university The milk business, he . was largely founded on the idea of manure and fertilizers. Many have d er got over that idea and regard miik as a by-product. The only way to keep more cows on fewer acres is by the soiling system. Rye should be planted early in the fall. Other rops recommended for soiling and nsilage are wheat, oats, barley. Al- ill be a successful crop if the sround is thoroughly drained. Cow cas and beans are crops to tie to for enera] silage. Pumpkins are a great rop for feeding cows; they contai: wuch dry matter, They should be nted in fields by themselves and produce big crops. Beets are plendid and should be grown more gely for feeding. They are rich in iry matter, which is_essential for a lanced ration. Carrots and cab- re excellent for cows kept on he few acres which do not yield pas- urage enough in themselves. Production and Handling of Milk. J. Lewis Ellsworth, secretary of the state board of agriculture wf Massa- husetts, spoke on “Production and Handling of Milk.” Milk, he said, was the most important article of food. It s needed from infancy to old age. ‘here are many things necessary for uccess in the milk business. A first ssential is a love for the business; the nilk producer must be interested in 1is animals and keep his animals clean nd well groomed, Clean bedding, clean tables, are factors in cleanliness; dust hould be kept from the cows; there hould be plenty of air and sunlight. ihere should be a milk room separate rom the stable and clean utensils used n preparing the milk for market.
