FEEDING THE CALVES
why II 10 Better to Teach TheA -
Drink Cold Milk,

why 1t 10 Better to Teach Then -
Drink Cold MILK.
Patience is one Of the virtues in teach
ing little calves to drink, but this Is not
all. Calves should be allowed to run
with their mothers for two or three
days. This teaches them to eat and gives
them an appetite that will help the
feeder along in his work. About 10
hours after taking them away from
their mothers offer them little milk.
II they are not inclined to drink very
much let them 60 10 hours longer. BY
this time they will have an appetite.
Never get the calf's neck between your
limbs and force its head into the pail
telling it to drink or drown" but stand
in front Of the calf with pail in hand,
and when It lowers it's head raise the
pail up so as to dip Its nose in the milk.
This will give the calf taste Of the
milk, and in very short time the milk
will disappear and with it the calls
appetite.
Always teach the calves to drink new
milk. This can be gradually diluted
with SKINNED milk, and before the
calves are o week old clear skinned
milk may take the place of the new.
The same principle holds true in chang
ing from warm milk to cold. Begin
ry warming about seven-eighths Of the
allotted quantity and continue warm
ing one-eighth less each day until only
an eighth is warmed. The change is so
gradual that the calves do not notice
the difference. When the milk il too
hot one day and too cold the next, and
seldom just right which is 90 degrees
under such circumstances, calves will
do much better if taught to drink cold
milk at once.-Agricultural Epitomist-
