The Profitable Dairyman and Cow Breeds
The article argues many dairy farmers lose money but profit is possible with careful breed choice. Jerseys or Guernseys suit high fat rich products, Ayrshire fits rough pastures, Holstein suits lush grazing for high milk volumes. Selecting well adapted cows and proper care yields profitability.

Water Needs of Milk Cows and Hydration Tips
The article explains cows in milk drink four times as much water as dry cattle, with average production needing at least twelve and a half gallons daily. It cites experiments showing a heavy milker consuming 21 to 30+ pounds of water daily, depending on ration, and recommends a twice daily water supply, a nearby tank, and a pump to keep it full.

Contrast in dairy farming ambition cited by Kelley
A quoted critique notes two dairymen: one alert to secure better cows to raise income, the other with an unprofitable herd and little drive to learn or improve. The indifference to dairy literature and comparison undermines the dairy business, Kelley asserts.
