How to Use Cotton-Seed Meal.

1t should be mixed with hay, mill
feed and corn meal. BE careful not to
give too much; begin with a small
quantity handful, then two-Ind
increase as your cattle get used to it.
For milk, butter and beef, give Two
quarts of cotton-seed meal, add five
quarts of bran, two quarts of corn
meal, aud a little linsced meal, to
prevent constipation. Da1npen SO
that the cotton-sced meal, bran and
ground grain will stick together and
mix we'll.
These arc daily rations for cows, or
cattle of heavy weight. DO not give
young cattle much. Feed calves
onc-half pint and lambs one gill daily,
mixed with other food. DO not
feed cotton-seed meal to very young
lambs or calves. You will get
very rich butter, firm and solid, and a
number one beef. The value OF the
manure is very large. more than one
thinks for. The best meal sells at
wholesale in New York at twenty five
| to twenty-siX dollars for best quality
| for feeding. and less for fcrtilizin 3
grades.
A good many farmers now include
| cotton-secd meal in their feeding ra-
tions, while it's superior fertilizing value
| is unquestiorcd. think that the dc.
| mand for it will keep on the increase
yearly, as fast as consumers get better

Looking Ahead.


At this time Of year every dairynlan
should make up his mind just what
crops arc best to be grown on his farm
next summer, keeping in mind the
certainty of draught to De met in
July or August. The short pasture
must be helped out with some kind of
grown crop so that the COWS will not
shrink in milk yield. This can best he
done with corn stalks or green fodder,
but bear in mind that there is no profit
in sowing corn broadcast. 1t grows
up thick in stand and slim in stalk a nd
filled will, wind and water. The
cows like it just as they like beer,
but it makes little milk, and is al
most sure to upset their bowls. In
other words it does about as much
harm AS good. The only kind of corn
to feed is stalk raised under natural
conditions with plenty Of room for air
and sunshine, and then it stores up
some nourishment. In other and
palmer words whether you intend to
cut the corn 10 help out the pasture, to
silo it, OF to gather cane from it, plant
it just you always have. You will
get just about the same weight per
acre and far better quality. Another
crop to help out poor pasture is the
cow-pea that can be either cut or pas
turcd. and make SPLENDID crop for
emergencies because it can be either
pastured, cut for hay. or allowed tc
| mature and the peas threshed out
There is no better COW fccd.-Home
