DAIRY CATTLE IN

often what 1 fed my cows besides al
falfa. My reply has always been
the same-MORE ALFALFA. The on
ly feed we can afford to use in this
valley is alfalfa, and we need no
other.
1t has been proven by a number of
experiment stations that alfalfa is the
nearest a balanced ration of any sin.
gle feed. While alfalfa contains an
excess of protein, by experiment we
find that the excess goes into the fat
forming elements.
The most important thing about
alfalfa is to cut it at the right time
and handle it properly. 1 like to cut
it when the first few blossoms appear.
Let it lie until the top leaves rattle.
Then rake in winrows. Let it sun a
few more hours and shock it, putting
four or five rakefuls in a shock. Let
it stand a day or two and then haul
to the barn. Don't get scared if it
looks a little too green. 1t may turn
a little brown, but that does not hurt
it for 10Y feed. 1 prefer the first and
in proportion to the stem, and the
weather is usually cooler so thai it
is easier to get it cured just right.
1 prefer hay where there has been
little shortage of water; there Isl
leaf and less stem, it is tough
er and retains the leaf better. There
is quite a difference in the way hay
is handled and how and where it is
grown. 1 have fed hay, of the same
to my COWS, that made a diff.
ference of over $500 per ton in profit.
Neither crop had any rain on it, and
