This book presents the fascinating results of a comparative study on the different financial outcomes of 428 dairy farms in two typical dairying sections of New Hampshire. The author, a respected agricultural scientist, conducted detailed surveys and collected financial data from each farm over the course of a year. Their findings reveal a wide range of profitability among these farms, with some farmers earning substantial profits while others experienced significant losses. The book delves into the underlying factors that contribute to these disparities, identifying key management practices and resource allocation strategies that lead to financial success in dairy farming. By contrasting the practices of the most profitable 100 farms with those of the least profitable 100, the author provides valuable insights into the crucial elements of profitable farm management. Ultimately, this book offers a comprehensive analysis of the factors that influence the financial viability of dairy farms, providing valuable guidance for farmers seeking to improve their profitability and contribute to the overall sustainability of the dairy industry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Dora G. Ogle served as its business manager. The newspaper quickly became the voice of the white women's suffrage movement in Maryland, and regularly printed news and information from other suffrage organizations, becoming a motivational force by providing practical tips on how to organize and debate the suffrage amendment. The publication started by advocating broadly for women's suffrage, but eventually aligned with the National Woman's Party to push for a direct federal constitutional amendment. Statewide Reach: It included contributions from local suffrage leaders across the state, such as Howard County's Laura L. Byrne. The Just Government League also opened a coffee room and restaurant in Washington, D.C. near the headquarters of Alice Paul's Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage. When the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified in 1920, the Maryland Suffrage News ceased publication. ; These are the copies received by Mrs. R E.
