Feedinu for Milk,


Taking it for granted that the dairy
man has warm and comfortable win
ter quarters for his mich cows, a
good flow of milk is readily produced
with proper feed and management. II
the farmer has corn silage, he is able
to put up the best and cheapest dairy
ration obtainabie. We feed cows on
full flow of milk from 20 to rs pounds
of silage twice day. morning and
night. At noon, bright, clean clover or
millet hay is given, in such quantities
as will be eaten up clean. About three
pounds of bran Is given with silage
to those on full flow of milk, while
others receive proportionately less.
The feeder must constantly watch his
animals, as to how they respond to
liberal feeding, and vary his methods
with different animals. With silage
that has an abundance of corn in it
there is no need of feeding ground
corn.
Salt the cows about every other
day, giving a small handful on feed.
This will keep their bowels open and

organs, which occur quite frequently
with animals highly fed. Where no
silage is obtainab.e, good flow can
be maintained by feeding good clover
or millet hay in the morning and
bright shredded corn fodder at night.
For the grain ration, feed about four
pounds of bran and two pounds OF
corn-meal, or four pounds OF corn and
cob-meal, twice a day. Although not
as good as the silage ration, still, in
the absence of a silo, 1t will prove
very satisfactory. Feed, water and
milk the cows regularly; see 10 their
every comfort, treat them kindly al
milking time, and rest assured thai
you will receive your reward in q
good flow of milk.-H. Pfaender,

Foundation of the New Poultry House.
After building a number of poultry
houses one has certain important facts
impressed upon him. One of these
that comes home with a good deal of
force to the writer Is the matter OF
Ioundation. II he builds another poul-
try house he will see that the founda.
ton is perfect and that 1t will be more
than strong enough. A poultry house
that Is not properly built In this re-
spect VIII be a nuisance In several
ways.
IL is customary to build poultry
houses on slopes where 1t can be done,
ana that Is proper, as 1t gives good
drainage. But in case the foundation
proves to be poor and needs to be
supported 1t will generally be found
very difficult to do anything without
raising the house by means of Jack
screws. The writer has had a very
vexatious task of this kind. The trou.
bic Is that one end OF the house Is
set so close to the ground that one
cannot get under It or even get at
the parts that need to be supported
When a poultry house has to be
erected that is twelve feet or more
wide there should be row OF sup.
ports running the length of the house
under the very middle. Almost all
amateurs make the mistake of sup.
porting the house only on the sides
and ends. The twelve-foot joists, even
though they be six inches deep and
two thick, have very great amount
OF vibration and 1t Is unpleasant to
walk over floor laid on such Joists.
But II the time ever comes that the
house has to be used for another pur.
pose than poultry keeping, this kind
OF floor will be found to be unendur.
able. This possibility should be borne
In mind, for numerous poultry houses
become transformed In time into
houses for other purposes, especially
II they are of good size.
A fault that is very noticeable in
the building of most of the houses
used by our poultry is that they are
| merely set on posts stuck in the
ground for perhaps two feet. In few
years some of these posts rot and
| others get lean on them out of
| plumb due to the ground on one side
of the poultry house being softer than
on the other side The rain gets into
| the holes and the soil there becomes
softer than at any other point, and
this does not improve as the years
so by. Settling goes on year after
year. ! have in mind poultry house
that cost nearly hundred dollars. 1t
was set on cedar posts and the posts
are badly rotted now In spite Of the
fact that cedar Is supposed to be re-
sistent to rot. Some of the cedar
posts have also got out Of plumb, and
the house has moved over several
inches to accommodate the posts.
What the end will be nobody knows.
Build the foundations strong in the
first place. If the building is to rest
on supports of any kind dig deep holes
In the ground and put in brick or
stone duly cemented. Have n big
timber running the length OF the
building and also resting on the same
kind of piers. This will cost a little
more than the posts, but 1t will be
more satisfactory, and years afterward
the owner will be glad that he 30
invested the money that the good foun.
dations cost.

pairyina In Argentina.

The dairy industry is rapidly adj.
vancing in Argentina. This is shown
by figures recently published by the
government of that country. Eleven
years ago the export of butter amount
ed to less than twenty tons. The fol-
lowing year, 1905. the figures were 494
tons; in 1901 they had reached total
of 1910 tons; in 1902 the total exports
of butter were 4,125 tons; In 1903 the
exports were $500 TONS OF these last
Great Britain bought ALA tons and
Africa 1918 tons. We have no later
statistics than those Of 1903. The mum.
