in the food of any constituent, she will
try to make up the deficiency by turn
ing some other part of the food to
new purpose. If a surplus is given,
she will try to make good use of it be-
fore throwing it out of the body. Thus
she will do well, even if not her best,
when fed on rations differing quite
widely from the German standard.
If, now, man finds that albuminoids
are expensive, and carbohydrates
cheap, he will begin TO experiment and
see how small quantity of albuminoids
he can supply to the COW, without seri-
ously interfering with the milk flow.
He will also begin to supply her with
an excess of carbohydrates to learn to
what extent they can take the place OF
the more costly albuminoids. Ii he
should find that, by making these
changes, he can reduce the cost of his
ration FIVE cents per day and the COW
loses but two cents per day in her
product, it is the part of wisdom for
him to feed the cheaper ration. This
ration becomes then for him "stand-
ard ration" A better name would be
commercial ration" for this latter
ration is compounded, not with refer
ence solely to the needs of the cow her.
self, but with reference largely to the
commercial aspect of the case.
According to our present light, the best
thing that could be done would be to
use The "German ration as basis,
and sea how this would have to be
varied to suit our American conditions.
1t seems probable that when the true
"American standard ration" shall be
determined according to the above def
nitions it will be found to agree quite
closely with the present "German
ration"
In this connection some very i'm
portant facts are presented by cows
when on pasture. 1t is universally ad.
mitted that cows do their best when on
the early grasses of spring. Their food
then contains one part OF albuminoids
to four or five parts of carbohydrates.
Thus Nature gives us plain hint as to
what is the true " standard ration"

thinks deeply; not chronic pessimist,

and faith in his cows; not self
contained man, but one who sees, in
vents, copies and uses borrowed ideas,
If good, as well. This man should have
definite aims-does not shift his bust
ness each year-but selects one of the
three great dairy industries, stays by it,
and gains both reputation and money.
This allows him to bend every energy

lavish there, and 80 guides, directs and

This mans dairy is 80 ordered that it
produces nearly or quite every day in

AGRICULTURAL.
A Call to Action.

w. A. Henry, director of the Agri-
cultural Experiment Station of Wis
consin, warns the dairymen OF the
country against an impending danger:
News from Washington says that
the ways and means committee has now
completed its filed cheese bill, and the
matter comes before the house of rep
resentatives for passage or rejection by
that body. Every dairyman in the
country is directly Interested in the
passage of this bill, for without this
help our cheddar cheese industry is
doomed and the milk of tens of thou
sands of cows in the cheese districts
will be turned into butter, thus depres-
sing the market, when under reason
able laws it would be used in cheese
manufacture. Let every dairyman send
q postal card to his representative and
senator at once urging the immediate
passage of the filled cheese bill. We
cannot blame our representatives in
congress for negligence If we are un-
willing to spend so much as a postal
card in informing them of our needs
and wishes. Let the flood of postal
Cdruo ChlliuB lOl Iulo ioSloiholoh, WhiSh
shall center in Washington in the next
ten days, be so great that congress will
not hesitate for single day, but give
our dying cheddar cheese industry its
needed protection, thereby greatly help
ing the dairy interests in all lines.
Hoard's Dairyman thus re-enforces
Professor Henry's warning:
Every dairyman is interested in
the prompt passage of this bill to tax
filed cheese and compel its sale for
what it is. Congress will pass this bill
Just as soon as ii can be convinced that
a majority of the owners of the 16, 1877,
$50 cows in the United States want it
passed, and not before. Do you want
such a bill to become law? Then
write your member of congress to that
effect, and do it now. Don't wait until
next week. And get your neighbor to
write, too. This is case where num-
bers avail. If you happen to know
more than one congressman, write to
all. All you really need to say is:
1 ,oant that bill facing filled cheese to be-
come lao. Say more if you want to.
Tell him that all your neighbors want
that bill to become law.
