Excerpt from U. S. Department of Agriculture Special: December 18, 1914 Dairying furnishes profitable employment for labor and equalizes the distribution of labor throughout the year. The gathering of bedding, hauling of manure, repairing of fences, etc., furnish paying work for the farm hands at seasons when, on account of wet weather, help is not needed in the cotton fields or when steady work is scarce or lacking altogether. With cash coming in every week or month a better class of labor can be employed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
