The Head of the Herd.

It is an old saying that the bull is
half the herd Do we really believe it?
Plenty of men say. Professor Fraser
of Illinois will pay $500 or $500 for a
good registered COW, yet the owners
did not expect to pay more than 5000
for sire to head this same herd"
Does not that fact show that but few
men value the sire as highly as they
do the dam? Yet she has but one calf
year, while he is the sire Of many.
1t often takes statement like this to
show us what we really do believe.
Yet the most famous and successful
breeders have always been men who
paid their highest money for sires rath-
or than dams in nearly all breeds of do
nestle Holstein- Friesian Reg
lister.

Feeding the Dairy Cow

My experience in feeding milk cows
for profit covers the time since 1901.
says a Texas dairyman in Farm and
Ranch / have obtained the best re
suits from the following combination
Of feed for 800 pound cows: Three and
half pounds of cottonseed meal, four
pounds of wheat bran Tor its equiva-
lent in nutritive value of rice bran and
polish or crushed corn, twenty pounds
of cottonseed bulls, with Bermuda
pasture in spring and summer and rye
or oat pasture in fall and winter. On
the above feed an 800 pound COW
three fourths Jersey produced twenty
five to twenty-eight pounds Of milk
daily testing AZ per cent butter fat;
a full Jersey about the same weight
produced thirty to thirty-three pounds
of milk testing per cent; other cows
of less weight and fed in the same
proportion produced from sixteen to
twenty four pounds of milk testing
from 3115 to 51a per cent fat Taken
as a whole, have MIXED from eight
to twelve cows that produced little
more than 70 pounds of butter each
per annum.
Cotton Seed as a Milk Feed.
Ii feeding cotton seed to milk herds
the only economical method of employ
ing more than three or four pounds
daily is to boil or steam the seed
Farm and Ranch.
When to Feed.
Feed cows grain just before milking
and fodder and hay afterward. This
will keep the dust down till the milk
ing is done and still give the cow
something to make her contented and
to draw her attention from the process
of milking.--Hoard's Dairyman.
Barley Hay.
There is really but little known about
barley hay, says Hoard's Dairyman.
We should estimate it to be not quite
as valuable as oat hay, but very de
c1ded improvement on timothy hay for
feeding to milk cows. A mixture of
corn, oats and barley, equal parts by
weight, and feeding. say, an average
of seven pounds per day, with one of
linseed oil meal added, would make a
very acceptable ration with barley hay
for roughage OF course If the prices
Of these farm grown grains should be
excessive, as they sometimes are, one
could use almost any of the ordinary
byE-0ducts, such as brewers or dis
tillers' grains, bran. gluten feed, and
30 forth.
Grain Fed Cows.
Grain fed cows on grass produced
an increase of per cent Of yield in
butter fat at the North Dakota ex-
pertinent station. Cows on grain in
creased in weight more than did the
others. The station concludes. how
ever, that the increase was not sufi-
Gent to pay for grain fed.

The benefit that dairyman derives
from testing his herd is much greater
than one would at first suppose, and
1t is the only way to bring up the
butter record that will bring a good
investment, says an Indiana dairyman
In Farmers Guide. We found by the
use of the tester In our herd that
some of our cows were getting in debt
to us and would eat up the profit of
the cows that made higher tests. There
are thousands of such instances in the
dairy work of our country.

Many persons consider that a calf
raised on skim milk cannot be other
tnan poor miserable creature which
Will never be of any use to the owner
or TO any one else owing to the check
10 It's development during its first
Few months Of life, says correspond
ent of American Cultivator. 1t is
quite true that there are plenty of
puny, understood calves to be found
that have been raised on skim milk,
but their unsatisfactory condition is
not the result of the skim milk. but Of
the careless and ignorant methods in
which it is led.
The poor results which have SO often
followed the feeding of skim milk
have, according to bulletin issued by
the Missouri station, been due to
faulty methods, and not because the
fat CREAM which has been taken out
is absolutely Indispensable to the nor
NAL development of the calf. In truth,
the butter fat or cream of the milk is
by no means the most valuable part
not go to form growth in a young
animal, but to keep up the heat of the
body and to supply fat for body It's
sues. The parts OF milk which furnish
the growth making material are the
casein and albumen which are seen as
curd when the milk sours. From this
material are made the muscles and
bone, nerves, hair and hoofs, and this
remains in the skim milk
The calf fed on skim milk is not
generally SO fat during the first six
months of its life as the one nursed by
the COW. 1t often has, however, rather
better development of bone and mus
Gle, and the difference between the
two cannot be seen two weeks after
weaving. 1t is true the calf requires
in addition to the skim milk some
food which will furnish a reasonable
amount of fat. Cornmeal has been
found to be very satisfactory and is
used extensively for this purpose. BY
giving the calf something to properly
balance the skim milk, by feeding
the milk warm and sweet and not In
too large quantities excellent results
can be depended upon.
The Danish Red Cow.
In Denmark, at least in the two is
lands which form the best part Of the
kingdom, the Red Danish COW Is the
principal breed. These animals are a
brownish red with black points. They
are larger than the Ayrshire, not SO
heavy as the Ho&stein and are shorter
in the legs than the latter. They are
good dairy cattle. At an agricultural
school which l visited, where thirty
cows are kept, they have a record of
an average yield of $500 pounds of
milk and $40 pounds of butter per COW.
Prize Winning Jersey Bull.
Merry Maiden's Third Son, 60516,
frst prize Jersey bull at the st. Louis
fair, is four year-old and won over
the pick of recent importations from
the island Of Jersey, says Hoard's Dali
ryman, from which the picture is re-
produced.
His dam, Merry Maiden, 64949, was
winner of the Grand sweepstake s
award as the best individual COW of
any breed, all three tests combined, at
the Columbian exposition at Chicago
in 1893. His sire, Brown Bessie's Son,

corner of your stool and yelling, Get
over there, you old ripv' may not be
understood literally by the COW, but
the impression you have left in her
head, as well as upon her hip, will not
make the cow fall all over herself, /"
as the boys say, to give you an extra
quantity of high quality milk.
The illustration shows one incorrect
position while milking. The mixer is
too far away from the COW, so that the
pail must be held at an angle, and If
the COW lifts her foot but little it will
hit the pail, with the usual result The
mixer must pull hard and sideways
to get the milk into the pail, and you
can generally find considerable wasted
milk upon the outside of the pail the
mixers trousers and on his boots.

Advantages of the Silo

Agrlculturist: | do not assert that in
all cases it will pay to put the corn
crop into the silo. / believe in most
cases it will and that common expert
ence comedies with the results of a
very careful comparison made on the
farm of the New Jersey station which
showed that for milk and butter pro-
duction the feeding value of the dry
matter Of silage was greater than that
OF dried fodder corn. The yield of
milk was over IL per cent greater and
OF fat 10 per cent greater. At a cent
per pound for milk produced the value
OF the corn crop was nearly $40 an
acre greater when fed as siiage rather
than as dried fodder.
Substitute For Grass.

stock.-Report Of Tennessee Expert
ment Station.
The Sflo and Land Values.
Silage increases the carrying capaci-
q OF the land. Ordinarily from two to
three acres of blue grass are required
to carry a LOCO pound steer for six
months when gaining from 800 to 400
pounds. Four 800 pound steers were
led for loo days on the product of less
than an acre of land in the form of
silage and gained $50 pounds during
that period.

The strainer Cloth.

The washing of strainer cloths is
frequently but imperfectly done, says
Hoard's Dairyman. If .a~strainer is to
be washed at all and not supplanted
by new strainer, it should be first
rinsed in cold water, then washed in
warm water, then scalded and then
hung up in the sun. Most people think
this is too much work.

Rtpentng the Cream.

Much of the trouble in the small
dairy comes from the difficulty of prop

ripening causes the loss in churning.
You can get more butter from properly

the churn.
