There is no difficulty in growing all

when one goes about il IN systematic

a rotation that Involves frequent piow-
inc and considerable of it, and leaves
litile room for ''old fields" and their

The system is simple, lays no special
demands on scientific knowledge, draws
hui lightly on capital, and is easily appl'-
eable TO any farmer on large scale or
small who has the disposition to get up
and 90 at it. This great hay crop Is to
be followed in few days with broad
acres of oats, stout, even and heavy with

No one perhaps has been more inter-
ested in the different experiments Of try
ing TO feed fat into milk than myself, NJ.
T.. King writes In the Ohio Farmer. l
was among the first to maintain that
feed had very little to do with the rich
ness Of milk, and | have received many
a drubbing for It.
When this question was brought
prominently before dairymen made the
remark at farmers institute, that after
a COW had once been fully developed by
proper feeding. that was all man could
DO, and that feed only helped to develop
the latent or innate abilities OF COW to
produce butter fat; or in other words,
that COW Is born rich or poor
mixer. This raised storm OF protest
and disapproval ran riot through the
audience. Scarcely had the writer taken
his seat when half q dozen men claimed
the floor, ready TO explode such foolish
theory, as some termed Ii. As usual no
two men agreed on any one ration, but
all were quite sure that they were able
To get richer milk from some feeds than
from others. Nearly every ration that
one could formulate had its advocates,
but when the question was driven home
not man OF them had ever tested the
milk, weighed the milk or feed, or kept
any record whatever. They were all
using the farmers rule of guessing
rule that is all too prevalent and leads to
the drawing OF some erroneous conclu-
sions.
4 calf that has been properly fed and
handled will be fully developed and give
as rich milk when she comes in fresh the
first time as she will ever give. She will
increase in the quantity of milk as she
gets older but the fat remains practically
the same. | have never had case
where We raised the COW from babyhood,
that the heifer with her first calf did not
give as rich milk as she ever did after
wards.
am quite sure that farmers give too
little attention to their calves. They
need our best care and attention, and
more than that they need our company.
! want our calves where | can be with
them every day, il possible, from the
time they are dropped until they become
mothers and | want TO be on friendly
terms with them at all times. The very
best place to keep calves is where the
children can be with them. Encourage
the children 10 play with them, lead and
handle them. IL Is not only good for
the calves but il is also good for the
children. liz teaches them how TO handle
and sympsthize with the stock. have
often seen our calves when threatened
with some imaginary danger, get as
close to the children or some of the
family as possible, seeming TO know that
there was safety in doing so.
The man who Is too sristocratic to
mingle freely with his calves, and his
cows also, will never succeed as breed
er of dairy stock. There is social side
TO a cows nature as well AS 10 mans.
IL is from her social nature that comes
not only the milk but the fat AS well,
given from spirit of pure motherly
beneiicence.
Oxford Democrat. [volume] (Paris, Me.) 1833-1933, 1895-08-13

\ reader inquiries the best way TO feed
dry COW for fattening. He has one
that i consuming. what seems to him
very large quantities of meal but with
little or 40 gain in flesh.
Experienced stock feeders long age
| found out that the best time TO feed an
animal for profit is during the period OF
