THE OLD AND THE NEW YEAR.

The year 1906 is heralded as the
most prosperous year in the history
of the world. There has been no 9TH
er year ike it in all the ages. With
all the modern inventions and appli-
ances of locomOtion, both in steam
and electricity, the productions OF
the earth were so great that is was i'm
possible TO market them. This pros
perity seems TO have been universal
and the cornucOpia OF blessings were
distributed with an even and impair
tial hand throughout all lands.
Great Britain. Germany. France.
Japan and the islands of the sea all
record the same story. There was
prosperity everywhere.
Florida had her full share. Her tur-
pentine. phosphate. lumber, orange
and trucking interests Jared well in
this general and universal prosper
ity Florida did the biggest trade
in her history. and all industries pros
pered.

RAISING THE CALF.
What to Feed to Keep It Strong and
Thrifty.

What to Feed to Keep 1t Strong and
Thrifty.
For the past four years the Kansas
experiment station has been expert
menting in raising calves on skim milk
and its substitutes, and among the
conclusions reached are the following:
Strong, thrifty calves cannot be ex-
pected from cows that have received
poor feed and care previous to calving
time
Cows should be fed bone and muscle
food while carrying their calves oats,
bran and clover or alfalfa.
Cows to produce strong calves should
go. dry from six to eight weeks before
calving.
They should be given succulent food,
as grass, roots or silage, for three or
four weeks before calving to keep
them in a laxative, healthy condition.
The calf should not be permitted to
drop in cold or damp place.
II the cows udder is caked and fe-
yerish milk often, but don't milk per-
fectly dry.
Feed the calf whole milk for the first
ten days or two weeks, then gradually
change to skim milk and directly after
feeding milk put little ground feed
into the calf's mouth, which will soon
teach him to eat. -zsp-e-
After he has learned to eat the
change to skim milk may be quite
rapid and the allowance may be in
creased considerably.
A great difference was found in the
individual capacity of calves, yet as a
general rule the calf from three to five
weeks old may be fed from ten to
twelve pounds of milk daily.
The milk should always be fed warm
and sweet. Next to overfeeding, there
was nothing that was found to cause
greater difficulty with hand fed calves
than feeding sweet milk one meal and
sour the next. They also found that it
was not practicable to feed unpasteur-
lied skim milk from the creamery.
When calves are fed for future use
fulness in the dairy care should be
taken not to get them too fat. In the
early part of the feeding period, when
the calves are receiving large amount
of skim milk and comparatively little
grain, there Is not much danger of get
ting them too fat, but as the grain ra-
ton increases it may be necessary to
feed more nitrogenous grain. This can
be done by changing part of the corn
for oats, bran or oilmeal whenever the
calves appear too feshy.
They found that considerable loss
was sustained in putting calves to pas
ture, provided the change from dry
feed to grass was not made gradually.
