FARM. GARDEN AND
HOUSEHOLD.
Feeding Stock In Winter.

The science, skill or art of feeding
farm stock is but imperfectly understood
by the majority Of farmers. There is no
doubt that the farmer who is best skilled
in the art of feeding stock has decided
advantage over his neighbor who scarcely
gives the subject thought. thinking that
II his animals are fed hay or straw or
corn fodder II natter not how or when
It Is fed, only that they have enough.
great mistake is made by following
such methods; the animals do not thrive
as they would if fed at stated intervals,
with variety Of food and drink given
them at regular periods; such method
would do away with the restlessness so
common among cattle. The writer has
been experimenting for several years in
the feeding of farm stock. In his early
life cattle and sheep In this section were
not stabbed, but had yards with sheds to
run under at will; the clearing of the
forests gave the winds chance to sweep
over the country, so stables were fur
nlshed for night feeding, and the cattle
were turned into the yards during the
day this was decided improvement.
Nowadays many farmers keep their
cows, especially their milking animals, in
the stables day and night, only turning
them out an hour at noon To drink, and
that the stables may be cleaned, which
done, the animals are fed and put into the
stable again. This plan Is preferable to
stabling nights, and allowing them to be
In the open air all day.
Some farmers, among them the writer,
keep their cows in the stable at all times,
give them water morning and evening at
regular hours, and feed them regularly.
By this method the cows are contented.
and the milk product will vary but little;
let the weather be what 1t may out of
ioors, the stables are kept uniform in
temperature, and the cows are comforta-
BILE. We have found that by turning
them out to water they gave less milk;
then, too, we get more milk when the
cows have water twice day than when
watered but once, and also that water at
from 40 to 80 temperature is much bet
ter for the milk than colder tempera-
ture. As our milk is measured daily, we
know whereof we speak. II all farmers
would make their own experiments in
feeding and watering, and carefully note
results, they will be surprised at the diff
ferences in different methods Jonathan

1t is stated that by careful analysis it

account they are very important to seden-
