The BEST FEED TO PRODUCE MILk-lt Is
well settled In the opinion of all our best dairy
men, that bran greatly promotes the milk Sc
cretions in cows,and 1t is fed almost universally.
About equally mixed with corn meal is the
usual proportion. This mixture seems to pro-
mote both quantity and quality of milk.
From several sources we hear that buck
wheat bran is a great milk producer, and 1t is
now being used considerably among our Che s.
ter county dairymen, in about the same proper
tions rs the other.
Thomas Gawthrop, near West Grove, Ches-
ter county, also by repeated trials with his own
cows, has fully satisfied himself that they do as
well with corn and cobmeal and bran, as with
pure corn meal and bran. The amount of nu-
triment in corn-cobs is so very small, that this
result will have TO be explained OH the SUPPOSE
ton of the ground cob, acting to promote diges-
ton by distendiDg the stomach. The presence
distension and fill up the stomach of rumina-
ting animals, before perfect digestion can be ac-
somplished, is frequently lost sight Of. Hunga-
rather superior to the ordinary run Of hay
The last year or two, Hungarian grass has LOOM
ed up wonderfully in the estimation Of our
dairy farmers; and n very large scope of land
will be sowed with it the coming season. 1t
natures for cutting in about sixty days, and
produces two To. four tons per acre-the latter
of course on good soils. Three pecks to the
| acre is the usual allowance Of seed. Where a
good hay market Is convenient, this substttl-
| ton of Hungarian grass for common hay in
home feeding will be clear additional source
