Raising HeIstein Cattle.

The Dutch system of feeding and
rearing Holstein-Friesian cattle is sim
plicity Itself. The calves are given
whole milk until about five weeks old,
when the ration is gradually changed
to skim milk and grain. The grain
Is cooked or steamed and fed with the
milk at first and later Is fed dry imme-
diately before the milk is given. When
grass is available it forms the entire
ration for heifers, and during winter
the rations are only sufficient to keep
them growing. Bulls are fed In the
same manner until they are year old,
after which they are closely confined.
but regular exercise is given daily.
Bulls used for breeding are kept In
stables or paddocks and are well fed,
but not allowed to become fat Roots
in winter and green forage in summer
are largely used. = Professor W. A.
Kennedy. Iowa Agricultural College

Malcolm III. Gardner says of Hol-
stein Friesians: While in character the
Observation-Disclosures are essentially a
dairy breed and are so regarded in
America, yet as an all round dairy
breed the matter of beef and veal must
not be lost sight of, and In Holland
these are very important points. There
few cattle are allowed to pass their
seventh year, but before they pass out
of their prime they are fattened and
sold as beef. Owners and breeders of
Holstein-Friesian cattle base their
claims for the superiority of this breed
over all other dairy breeds mainly on
the following points: First, that the
Holstein- Friesian is large, strong.
vigorous cow, full of energy and
Astounding in vitality; second, that her
physical organization and digestive ca
pacity are such that she is able to turn
to the best advantage the roughaga of
the farm, converting the same into
merchantable products; third that she
yields large quantities of most excel
lent milk fit for any and all uses and
especially well fitted for shipping pur-
poses; fourth. that heredity is so firm
ly established through her long lineage
that she is able to perpetuate herself
through the production of strong,
healthy calves, and. fifth. that when
for any reason her usefulness in the
dairy is at an end she fattens readily
and makes excellent beef

Test the Herd.
Every day brings tidings of the de-
struction Of valuable herds of cows be-
cause Of tuberculosis. Why all this de-
struction? Simply because the men
who owned the cattle did not inform
themselves thoroughly concerning the

that their COWS are all right?" 1t is
not an expensive matter to test herd.
If the disease is there, shouldn't the
farmer know it as soon as possible? If
1t presents a clean bill Of health
shouldn't he be vigilant to keep it SO?
1t Is simple matter. Start clean,
and then keep clean, says Hoard's Dali
ryman. Test regularly every year.
Never take in an animal that has not
been tested. Use disinfectants, such
as whitewash and carbolic acid. freely.
