their places in stalls at feeding time
and receiving their bran rations along
with the rest.
If butter maker handles as much as
400 pounds of milk day he can afford
a cream separator.
Dairy farmers in the northwest report
that they are making money this year
very generally.
Six pounds of butter to the hundred
pounds of milk is good average.
October and November are the best
butter making months of the year.
Oats and clover are good milk stimu-
lating foods, because of the nitrogen
they contain.
For ensilage, cut the corn in the glaz-
ing stage, oats when the grain is doughty.
The fight between "dishorn' and "de-
horn" goes bravely on. A new convert
to sdehorn" is the gallant editor of

form.
Good advice: Have the COWS before
you build the creamery.
This fact we commend to farmers and
factories having quantities of milk: The
hot weather season, which is the poorest
time to make butter, is the best time to
make cheese.
