Cream sales mean farm profit in Wilbarger county
Vernon dairy advocate F H Wright argues creameries uplift area farmers. He cites cream from few cows yielding high butter fat as profitable, detailing a Vernon trip with 87 pounds of cream testing 85 percent fat earning 8.11 dollars and estimating three cows could gross 50 to 60 dollars monthly with low feed costs if the farmer grows their own feed. He notes a twelve-year-old Red Poll Jersey cow producing four gallons daily, and stresses selecting good milkers to improve profits, urging Wilbarger farmers to reduce cotton and boost dairy stock.
