Plan No. 609. Good Money in Cows
Here is what a farmer did with a few head of stock in Western Wisconsin, and he gives an account of his work as follows:
“On October 1st, 1913, I owned eighteen cows, eight heifers, four calves and one bull. The following year I fed $312 worth of pasture and $415 worth of feed, all of which, with the exception of $160 worth, was produced on my farm. During the year my sales of cattle and dairy products amounted to $1,200. At the end of the year I had remaining twenty-two cows, eight heifers, three calves, one steer and one bull, worth $2,040. I figured that I cleared $753, exclusive of labor.”
