POINTS o.. LEEDlNG

Discriminate in fec ing. Tic fresh
milk COW needs more than the COW
milking six months. the COW giving Il
large quantity Of milk more than the
one giving a small quantity. the grow
ing COW more propor' ionaly than til"
mature COW. the large COW more than
the small one.
Corn ns Dairy Feed.
Corn may or may not be a good feed
in the grain ration. 1t will depend
upon the use the cows make of it. If
You nave cows that Wi!l convert it into
milk. it is good if into beef, it is bad
that is, if YOU are in the dairy bust
ness. Judge your cows and feed ac-
cordingly
Use Rrnins In Feeding.

Roots For Drying Cows.
When Il COW begins to fattcn up and
drop off in her milk flow. don't try to
bring her back by increasing tie grain
ration. Rather decrease it. Feed more
roots or cnsilagc ana less grain TO The

Train the Iieifcr.

1t is Il matter of the greatest difficult
~ to get Il COW back to her flow Of
milk when Il has once been permitted
to shrink. From the time she becomes
fresh until she has been in milk nine or
ten months the dairy COW should be
kept up to her full capacity. This is es-
pocially important with young hcifers.
The gift Of continuance is n valuable
gift in Il COW. and to acquire 1t she
must be trained when young.

good and the price is ranging around
