The Reasons Why 1t Is Proper and
Profitable TO Feed IT.

The other day, standing on the streets
nj Fort Atkinson, we listened to a group
Of dairy farmers talking about the diff
hculties and expense Of feeding their
cows the past winter, says the editor
of Hoard's Dairyman. 1t was really
interesting, much so for the reason that
it was astounding to hear men who
pretend to be dairymen give evidence,
as they did, of profound ignorance of
One man said he wouldn't buy bran or
gluten meal, SIS per ton for the first
and $24 for the second. Il feed ground
corn and OATS said he. :" | raise my
own feed. and | know it's cheaper"
We ventured to ask him If he could tell
when they We're selling at 10 cents a
bushel. We'll" said he, Il don't know
exactly, but do know they are good

man was in reality paying S2S.1 21la Per

the price oats were selling for. Apoth-

We asked this farmer if he had ever
given the subject of feeding dairy COWS
any study, and he admitted he had not

half dozen, confessed that they were in
the same boat. Now, here were six
farmers with large herds of COWS all
financially interested in getting all they
could from their cows, and yet not one
of them considered it worth While to
stop and look into the feeding question
to see if it was not worth looking into.
There is confession of childlike
weakness here that is almost pitiful,
and yet it is the condition of a great
mass Of the men who keep COWS
These men were all agreed that they
would not buy bran at SIS per ton, but
they would feed oats at sos ton. In
answer to the question why should
we feed q balanced ration?" we under
took to explain as follows:
We should feed balanced ration be-
cause the COW is compelled to produce
in milk perfectly balanced food. BY
that we mean that all the elements in
the milk are balanced up to relative
percentage of each food element in it,
The COW cannot help herself. She can
not drop off the percentage Of the car
bohydrates or protein or fat if the
farmer doesn't know enough or is too
stingy to supply her with any of those
elements. What does she do? Simply
this: She reduces the amount of her
milk until the quantity is reduced to
an amount that she can balance from
the food she gets. Therefore we
should feed the cow balanced ration
in order that she may keep up her milk
flow to the point of good profit to the
owner.

Knou Your Cows.

Much of the profits of dairying is
eaten up by the cows. A single cow
may be all right in appearance and
even in the quantity of milk yield, and
yet she may be merely an expensive
luxury, her feeding and care weighing
more financially than her butter prod
uct. Every COW should be carefully
tested not only as to the amount OF
butter yield, but as to the amount OF
feed she requires to make it from. The
test should involve careful weighing
of feed as well as butter, and cows
that do not yield a reasonable profit
should be disposed of.
