Poor Winter for Gogebic Dairymen
The Gogebic Cow Testing Association reports the 1924 25 winter as one of the most disastrous for dairy profits. Butterfat fell to 38 4c per lb. price later rose to 48c but is expected to drop again. Conditions are seen as regional with overproduction blamed by some and cold wet 1924 summers keeping pastures good in drought prone areas. Dairy farmers urged to keep cows, improve breeding and feeding, and grow alfalfa and clover for better times ahead.
