FACTS ABOUT DAIRY cows.

Professor A. l.. Hacker. of the Me-
braska station. records some of his
conclusions in regard to COWS as fol-
lows:
h variation in per cent of fat i'm
milk during consecutive years offers al
interesting study, and from h data
here given the following observations
are drawn:
AS a rule. shor lactation periods re-
suit In a high per cent of fat, while
long periods CIV a lower per cent of
fat. A large flow of milk is generally
associated with IA low per cent Of fat.
while a smaller flow gives a higher
test. 1t was found. however, that the
amount of butter fat did not vary as
much as the milk low or the per cent
of fat.
In most cases, heifers with their first
calf did not how as high n test as they
did at a more mature age. The per
cent of butter fat did not seem to be
changed by the food ration given.
In order to know the value of q dairy
herd and It's members. 1t is necessary
to keep a milk and butterfat record of
each COW from veal to year. Such a
record will show a variation in the
value of the animals and will serve as
u guide in building up the herd.
The cows varied from year to year
in their butter fat production. The
good COWS were inclined to give large
SASAAs JS"A 0AsSA JCoAS ~ pun OiCS
We're in nearly all cases low.
1t was found that, as 81 rule. the var
iation i'm milk flow in Individual cows
from year to year vas due to length of
lactation and rest before freshening.
A long lactation period favors q larger
milk production; also Il long period be-
fore f%reshening brings the same result.
The amount of milk and butterfat
produced depends upon the dairy capac-
fty of the animal and quality of the
ration used. Cows vary in their cost
to keep. also in their ability to use
economically the food consumed. Cows
of Il decided dairy type will return the
greatest profit when fed to their full
capacity.
The average cost of feeding a dairy
COW. as shown by these records, is
about $50 per year, and the total value
of butterfat is about $40. leaving an
average of about $40 for labor and
profit in addition to the value of the
| skimmilk and the value of the calf.

done considerably cheaper IL you get
there before the rush. Discs may be
to sharpen, cultivator shovels to be
pointed or r-esharpened, stalk cutter
