they have learned to depend upon
something better. II Is now conceded
by dalrymen who have studied all sides
of the question that the corn field Will
furnish more o, the right kind OF food
for the dairy COW than will the pasture.
That is to say. turn the pastures into
corn fields and clover and alfalfa
meadows, then prepare the food for the
cows for every month the year around.

butter are produced at lessenod cost.
This manner OF feeding necessarily

Manly Miles has this to say OF the
above named breed; This breed, some
times called Silky. or Negro fowls, have
very peculiar appearance; their
plumage being so unlike that OF other
fowls. as TO be scarcely recognized as
feathers; while the skin OF the fowl Is
n deep violet color, almost black. the
surface bones being Of the same hue
also. which gives It rather unln-
Wiling look when prepared for the
table, The flesh. however, Ia very deli
cate and white, and superior to that OF
many breeds. The plumage has soft.
ilossy appearance, the flaments being
separate or single. and has been repre-
scented by ancient naturalists as re-
sembllng wool. In describing this pc
culiar breed OF fowls some say They
were covered with wool instead OF
fea,hera'; others say, they were Gov
cred with "hair like cats."
These fowls are supposed 10 be ma
tlyes OF India though some say they
originated IN China. They are bred Ia
England 10 some extent. The cocks
weigh about four pounds, and the hen
about two and one-half pounds.
