MAPLE FARM:
RAISING CALVES.


As it is becoming more desirable that
our farmers who make butter, should
raise calves, | should like to give my ex-
perience hoping others will do the same
1st.-A man who only keeps two or
three cows can afford TO raise his calves
on SKINNED milk One who keeps many
COWS can't afford to do it. The trouble
is the extra amount of labor or care re-
-quired to raise calf on skim milk. If
the milk is allowed to get too warm, it will
injure the calf. Ii left too cold, the calf
wont drink it. Every calf needs con-
slant attention to make it prosper. But
how make butter and raise calves by let
ting them suck the COWS? Its simple
en- ough. Milk all the fresh cows and put
two calves on COW that has been
giving milk for some time. Be careful to
keep hay and shelled corn or coarse meal
where the calves can get it without vast
ing it. When the calf is two or three
weeks old, put corn in its mouth. At six
weeks oil it will eat like an OK. Give it
fresh clean water every day. Feed them
q small portion Q. grain every day.
till they are year old. After that they
will live on early cut timothy and clover,
or second crop hay and make finc growth
il kept in warm dry place.
We have little old Devon COW that
we cannot afford to make butter from,
and we raise from five to six calves off
her milk every year. CALVES that have
been let suck and properly taught to cat
can be taken of at three months old and
make better growth than If fed skim
milk till FIVE months old. OF course this
treatment needs warm stabiing in winter
and good pasture 10 summer.
Any calf at e.week old will suck any
COW you wish to have it. And almost
