CARE OF CALVES.


How the Man who Knows what ~
Do and Does 1t Makes Money.
One of the most serious faults of the
average American farmer is his lack Of
knowledge and determined purpose in
the care Of young stock. We judge
Of mans understanding Of any ques-
ton by the way he does his work. Look
over the calves at three, six or twelve
months Of age In nine out Of ten of our
American farms. Note their unthrifty. |
scrawny, Ill fed looks, and then judge |
what must be the real knowledge Of
falf raising possessed by their owners
Some will say that the owners OF
these calves do not do half as we'll as
they know. In our opinion that is not
the fact The real difficulty Is that
they do not half know what they ought
to know about these things and conse-
Quently their work is half done. They
have never resolutely set themselves to
work to study what 1t means to rear n
calf well. When a man Is thoroughly
saturated with the knowledge Of
thing 1t holds him up to better work.
In March last two men came into
this neighborhood looking for grade
dairy calves, says correspondent OF
Hoard's Dairyman. They were men
who knew what they wanted. They
purchased seven grade Guernsey heif'
ers, dropped last fall, Of one man and
paid him an average of $242S for the
lot At the same time they said they
could purchase calves Of the same
breeding and age Of neighboring farm
ers for from $40 to SIS apiece.
| What made this difference in price
Simply the way the calves were
handled. The seven calves were han
died as follows:
1. They were kept dry and clean
with plenty Of fresh dry bedding every
day and their quarters were kept wei
disinfected
2 They were fed skim milk, fresi
from the separator, after the first ter
days. with little ground faxseed ant
blood meal added.
When the milk was fed they wer
put in stanchions and the milk set be
fore them in pafls. Afterward the
were given a small feed of oats, 10
lowed by alfalfa hay. But the grea
care was to keep them dry and cieaI
J AS soon as they were through eatin
their oats they were let out OF II
stanchions ara ran together loose
the compartI nent. They were fed mil
morning an evening When sold the
were in fine, clean, thrifty condrtio
but not fat. They consumed apiece
the six months they were kept abo
$500 pounds of skim milk, 81 worth
oats, 81 worth of alfalfa hay ana na
seed M cal and so cents worth of bio'
. meal.
Aft ,r paying for the oats, hay, na
seed meSl and blood meal, S3.oo' a
a allo wing So for the value OF the ca
% wb en- a week old-the price allowed
ca If buyers-we have SITS per Ct
!, pay for $500 pounds of skim m
, and the labor.
Twelve calves were kept In the co
partment Does it pay to- make III
