Jersey cattle advised to boost registered herd in Comanche
Vocational agriculture instructor L. N. Miller of Comanche High School urges farmers and dairymen to replenish herds with registered Jersey cattle. He says a small number of registered heifers can become cows in two to three years and that breeding to registered bulls will yield valuable calves. Miller suggests forming a Comanche Jersey Cattle Association to advertise nationwide at low cost and notes potential government buyouts of diseased stock for relief work.
