Watching the old year out has been
a common custom in many lands. In
most countries ii assumes with the Sc
rious minded the phase of devotion. In
many countries where Roman Catholi-
cism is the prevalent form of faith the
year is begun with midnight masses.
Among the Greek Catholics the same
usage prevails. 1t declined in the
Church of England. but was revived
by several of the dissenting bodies. the

HOW MUCH GRANT
scaentinc Feeding Talk Turned Into
Everyday Terms.

A cow should receive all the grain
she can probably make use OF In her
ration and no more.
This Is where the skill of the feeder
comes ln-in being able to tell just
how much each individual cow can
make use of.
Some cows are capable OF taking If
teen pounds of grain day and manu-
featuring 1t into milk: others can make
only ten pounds of grain into milk. and
70 on down to five. even two. pounds OF
grain day.
The same COW may require different
quantities OF grain at different times.
When a COW is fresh and giving a
large quantity of milk she needs more
grain than late In the period of lacta
tlon.
This ote point should be borne in
mind. that the quantity Of milk cow
Is giving or capable of giving should
largely determine the amount OF grain
to feed
Now. tits leads us into water that's a
little deep. We must know how much
nutrient the different kinds OF feeds
contain IN order TO determine the
amount 20 feed. The experiment sta
tons have worked out problems, and
the solution of this one in particular is
of great value to dairy farming If TAX
EN- up and applied.
Turning this knowledge into every
day terms, it might be stated that the
amount OF grain to feed should be only
two-fifths the number OF pounds of
milk the cow is giving. If COW gives
thirty pounds of milk daily. she should
get two-tifths of thirty, or twelve
pounds of grain daily. A cow giving
fifteen pounds of milk daily should get
two-ffths OF 1t. or six pounds o: grain
Now get scale you can get one for
Is cents and see IL you are feeding
right.
In feeding this grain ration COW
should get all the roughage she win
eat up clean.
The grain may be either mill prod
ucts, such as bran and shorts. or a mix
ture of the farm grown grains, oats,
barley, corn. etc.-A. j. Mcclure in
