RAISING WHEY CALVES.
They Should BE Fed Three Times q
Day in Clean, Elevated Troughs
or Fixed Buckets.

In raising calves on whey, avoid two
extremes; do not feed it too sweet or
too sour. 1t should be moderately
acid, nothing more. Insist on your
cheese maker keeping perfectly clean
storage whey vat, and if he fails to
clean and scald it every day, take a
clean barrel to the factory for your
portion of whey. Ihave known farmers
to go to the factory to get sweet whey
every forenoon, for immediate feeding
to calves, but the young animals did
not particularly thrive on it.
The majority feed it to their calves
when the whey is "a hours old. It de-
ponds on the receptacle the swill has
been kept in, whether it is then in a
proper state for best results. If it
has been stored in filthy whey vat
or barrel, it is unfit to feed to any CO.
nestle animal. In hot weather, even
after daily washing and scalding of the
storage tub, care should be taken that
the whey does not get too sour. Keep
it in a cool, airy place. Above all, do
not depend on whey alone for the sue
cessful rearing of calves. If you do,
they will become pot-bellied and stunt
ed. Give them the range of a nice
pasture partially shaded, so that half
of their sustenance at least will be
from grass.
Feed them whey three times daily
in a clean, elevated trough, or fixed
buckets. If they do not thrive suffi-
GENTLY on this, add little oil meal.
Keep calves by themselves, and do not
tolerate swine or sheep in the same
Enclosure. The idea is to keep calves
growing and developing naturally, if
you would obtain healthy, vigorous
cows Cramped quarters, lack of va
riety of food and insufficient nourish-
ment make puny, improbable heifers.

The Glenorminster butter factory in
Australia is probably the biggest thing
of the kind in the world. The supply
of milk in the flush for several weeks
reaches the enormous amount of 1861
900 pounds per day. It is also stated
shat some of the patrons furnish as
high as 5000 pounds per day; and the
average is about 2.coO pounds; and
these amounts are produced on farms
of from 100 to 200 acres each. In the

tors of 400 gallons per hour capacity
each, that when necessary can handle

reasons for supporting Mr., Bryan:
/. Because il is the only way to make

2. Because voting third ticket
would be equivalent to absentation
from the polls.
3. Because Imperialism is the demi-
nant issue.
4. Because the election viii settle the
question irrevocably.
5. Because Bryan's election will put
a quietus on the imperiallstlc adven-
ture.
8. Because no presidential election
decide more than one question.
7. Becarse Bryan Is honest.
s. Because Bryan has robbed the at
tack on the republic Of its disguise aud
forced fight in the open.
o. Because capacity TO deal with the
issues of 1902 and 1904 can be best evi-
denced by meeting intellieently the is
sues of 1900.
