is In the ability of men, and that Is
where many dairy farmers fail-ln

the profit derived from good cows is
lost in supporting the poor ones.-C. II.

The Michigan experiment station has
begun a very important line of work
and one which deserves wide attention.
In the fall of 1904 il purchased twenty
grade Shorthorn cows. None of the an
finals contain a large percentage of
Shorthorn blood, yet they have enough
to give the evenness and uniformity
sought in a foundation herd. The first
years report of this grade herd says:
"In maintaining grade dairy herd
at this Institution two chief ends are
sought-first and foremost, to show OBJ
jectively how the common dairy stocks
of this state can he improved as to
quantity and quality of milk produc
tion by rational and continued sys
TEN of up grading. and, second. TO show
the effect OF careful feeding and man
agement upon average, common or
even inferior dairy animals. While the
stocking of farms with pure bred dairy
animals is desirable and strongly adj
vised, ii is generally recognized that
the great mass of Improvement among
dairy cattle must come from intelli-
gent up grading. In selecting the foun-
dation stock for grade dairy herd at
tention was given first TO the health
and general physical characteristics of
each individual selected.
For breeding purposes the herd is
divided into four groups or subherds
of FIVE animals each. One Of these
groups is to be bred continuously to
Jersey bulls and the female progeny
bred in the same line. another group to
be bred continuously to Holstein bulls
and the female progeny in the same
line. The third group Is to be bred In
the same way to Guernsey bulls and
the fourth to Shorthorn bulls"
The average results Of the herd are
as follows: Milk, $3.50 pounds; butter,
29s pounds cost of feed, $33.07; value
Of products, $69.65, and profit OF over
feed, $36.6s.
J. The poorest COW gave in the year
1905 pounds of milk, forty-eight
pounds Of butter and was kept at loss
OF $685.
The most profitable COW gave S113
pounds Of milk, 422 pounds Of butter
and returned q net profit over feed
consumed Of $80.61.
Despite the logic Of these facts,
which are different In no way from

Feeding the Milk Maker

Parsimonious feeding will negate the
best qualities of any improved breed
All registered breeds have been devel-
oped by liberal feeding as well as in
telligent selections. Retrogression com
mences with the want of proper nour-
ishment. and young animals born to be
champions of their breeds have their
possibilities stultified. At the door of
poor feeding can be charged the direct
cause Of more cases of discouragerhent,
loss Of money and finally giving up of
improved dairy stock than any other
one thing.
June Feeding In January.
Those four words mean a big differ
ence in the profits from your herd Of

to get it's to erect silo and fill 1t
with corn. If the silo is good one and
the corn is put into II right you can
give Brindle and her sisters as luscious
feed in January as nature provides in
June. In fact, you can give them a lit
tie. better, for good silage has more
stamina and greater feeding value than
grass ever had. Note we say good
silage. "-Kimballs Dairy Farmer.
Alfalfa Rich In Protein.
In comparing Its food nutrients with

as winter ration and as supple

profitable results. This is especially

GRADING CREAM.
Factors That Influence the Test OF
Cream From separators.

Sream FROM sep0rntors.
First grade cream should contain not
less than 80 per cent of butter fat, for
the reason that cream with this per
cent of butter fat will keep better and
cost less to transport than cream OF a
lower per cent of fat, and>the dairyman
will recover more skim milk. Some
causes that tend to lower the butter
fat TO below 80 per cent in cream sep
arated with cream separator are as
follows: The variation in the per cent
of butter fat of hand separated cream
is very great if operators are not care
full in operating their machines uni
formly.
Running the Separator.
The first and probably the most Inn
portant cause that reduces the per
cent of butter fat in cream Is by turn
ing too slowly, not giving the bowl
enough speed. Anything that tends to
change the speed of the bowl from one
separation to another influences the
per cent of butter fat in the cream.
A uniform speed of the bowl is obtain
ed by turning the crank at a given
speed at all times and giving the crank
an equal pressure at all points in its
circuit around the axis. The speed at
which the machine should be run is
indicated by the manufacturer. Follow
these instructions and count the revolu-
tons each time the machine is used to
be sure that the speed Is maintained.
II milk Is warm the cream will con-
tain a slightly higher per cent of but
ter fat; If cold II will contain slightly
lower per cent. other conditions being
equal. Milk Immediately after II is
drawn from the COW has the proper
temperature at which to separate.
other Details.
Milk should be run through a sep
arator at a constant rate. II milk is
fed into the separator at an uneven
rate, IL at times the now Of milk be
stopped, the thickness Of the cream
will be greatly Influenced. The faster
milk Is run through q separator the
thinner will be the cream, other condi-
lions being equal.
The amount Of water or skim milk
used to flush out the bowl will natural
ly tend to decrease the per cent OF
Butter fat by diiuting the cream with
water or milk. -
There is Cream screw or skim milk
screw In each separator for the purpose
Of changing the thickness OF cream
when desired. By this II can be 20
regulated ~ to skim thin or thick
cream, and when once Get, II all other
conditions Of the separator are uni
form, II will produce nearly a constant
per cent Of butter fat.-Oscar Brf,
