HINTS FOR FARMERS


There is no doubt that different kinds
OF food might make some difference in
the number OF feeds required in a day
for the best preservation of the cows
health and the greatest production of
milk she is capable of afforiing. writes
J. W. Ingham in American Culuvator
Ii is we'll known that some foods are
digested more quickly t.ian others and
possess less nutritiye qualities and
therefore should be fed oftener for the
comfort of the cow and the most profit
OF the dairyman.
Some cows have stronger digestive
powers than others. and consequently
their stomachs have done their work
and are ready to receive another meal
sooner. Green, tender grass, roots,
pumpkins and apples will be digested
sooner than hay, corn fodder and grain.
A COW of vigorous digestion, fed on
food that is easily digested and not
overstrong In nourishmeIt. might get
hungry oftener and do better on three
meals day, but the generality of cows
fed on dry feed, hay, cornstalkS. silage,
cornmeal and bran are, according TO
my experience. less dainty and par
ticular about their food, eat it with Il
greater relish and do better in the long
run with but two feed per day.
