.kk3ALANCEDa
 4Z0M5 s

Below are given two rations for 900 pound cows which are exactly alike except that one contains ordinary mix other clover hay. It is particularly in teresting to notice the influence of clo- yer hay in raising the absolute amount of digestible protein and in narrowing the nutritive ratio. The farmer who grows large amounts of clover needs to buy less grain than the neighbor who ignores the virtues of clover: No. |, pounds cornmeal, 2.5 pounds bran. 1 pound cotton seed, 15 pounds mixed hay, 7.5 pounds corn stover, containing 22.90 pounds dry matter, 1.66 pounds protein, 1280 pounds carbonaceous; nu- tritive ratio, 1:7.8. No. 2, 3 pounds cornmeal, 2.5 pounds bran, pound cot ton seed, 15 pounds clover hay. 7.5 pounds corn stover, containing 2280 pounds dry matter, POS pounds pro tein, 12.50 pounds carbonaceous; nu- tritive ratio, 1:6.0.
 Feeding For Profit.
 A balanced ration is one that makes a COW do her level best producing milk and butter fat and, while maintaining the health of the COW, leaves balance for the profit of her owner, says a dairyman in National Stockman. That Is the proper kind of balanced ration and the one the farmer is interested In. It Is easy enough to balance the ra- tion according to the feeding standards and entirely unbalance the profit, even when the ration is given to good COW, and If by some unwisdom on the part of the cows owner the COW should be poor one the lack of balance in favor of the dairyman Is still more manifest.
 If silage Is cheaper than dried corn and cheaper and better than roots, If clover, soy beans and the peas and all the other possible leguminous crops are as valuable sources of protein as the byproducts of the mills and trusts and they will balance the ration to the full est requirements of the good COW and do it more cheapiy than the feeds of commerce, then why should they not grow on all our farms? Then the bal ancing may be done at home.
 Value of Balanced Ration.
 MIX and butter were produced more economically in some New Jersey tests from well balanced ratious than from the rations containing a sufficient quan- tlty of food, but not properly balanced. Feeding irregular rations caused a va rlation In the yield of milk, with a tendency toward a decrease.

Cost of Si1a0e.

The July bulletin of the Maine exper- iment station. discussion silage, says:
 We feed it in small quantities to all of our animals, including horses, hogs and poultry. and with good results; quantity for cows in full flow of milk, 11a bushels, or about 50 pounds, per day, with small feeds of hay or other coarse fodder, and proportionate quan- titles for dry cows and young animals.
 We are unable to give exact figures as to the cost of silage, but do find that we have nearly doubled the stock car rying capacity of our farm since build. Ing our silo and with but little addi. tional expense for labor and fertilizer.

MODEL COW STALL.

 Bedding In Place.

Keeps the Animal Clean and the
 Bedding In Place.
 This so called model stall shows a single stall with one side entirely re- moved, says Hoard's Dairyman. It may be as narrow as one pieases, but the width and length should be pro portioned to the size of the occupant We do not consider three and one-half feet any too much room for the COW of average size. The construction of this stall is such that when standing the rack in front forces the COW back few inches, so that all droppings fall well to the rear. The bar across the stall at the rear should be fastened to the floor just in front of the cows hind feet when standing with her head to the
Connecticut western news., 1901-09-26

rack. This bar serves the double pur- pose of retaining the bedding In place and of encouraging the COW to move forward when about to lie down, bring ing her head under the projecting rack. The bottom of this rack should be from 35 to 40 inches above the floor. A snal- low manager may extend across the full width of the stall in place of the slant ing box shown in the engraving.
 The COW Is fastened with a halter about the head, and instead of remov- ing the headpiece every time the COW Is to be loosened attach stout safety snap to the end of the rope and snap this into the ring under the throat, let ting the COW wear the headpiece all the time.

For Senator

from the And Senatorial District OF
the State, the PLAIN DEALER takes
pride and pleasure in presenting the
the name of Hon. d. A. Lyons, who
though nominated by acclamation in
the democratic convention, as legis-
lator has been active in the supporter
such legislation as the public interest
demands. We all know, democrats
and republicans, that there is an
Inequality and injustice in the matter
of assessment Of the various corpora
tions of the state, as compared with
that Of other tangible property. The
railroads, the telegraphs, the express
companies of the state are assessed on
the basis of 8 per cent, while the
farms and other property of individual
owners is assessed at 25 per cent. of
its value. For this evident injustice
to the people, Governor Shaw is large
ly, and almost solely, responsible.
That there has been large increase
in the taxable property of the state
during the past two years no one
Il
doubts, but while the property of indi-
viduals has increased $62,OOO,OO as
found by the various assessors of the
state the value OF its railroads as
found and assessed by Gov. Shaw and
the executive council of the state, has
declined. Now there is no one in the
state reasonably well informed but is
conscious that the property of the
corporations has increased correspond
i ingly with that OF individual property
of the farmers, and should have cor
respondingly increased assessment.
The administration of Gov. Shaw had
i the uuequiyocal endorsement Of the
republican party in the resolutions of
its state convention, a part of its
administrative acts being this unjust
assessment. The remedy for these
inequalities mustbe obtained through
legislation which will make the dis
elimination shown by the executive
council impossible. Such legislation
would have the approval of MIR. Lyons,
who, while doing that which will pro-
tect the people, will not be unjust to
the corporations.

of the nomination of A. r. McCook

mated by acclamation. For Sheriff
there seems to be like unanimity
in favor of a. G. Campbell, who is
recognized as one of the model sheriff I
of Iowa. One of whom the people OF
our county are Justly proud, regard
less of party distinction. The nomi.
nation to induce him to accept must
go to him with unanimity as the earn
