suits are of great significance in a
! number of ways. In the first place it
will mean that short periods are alb
solutely valueless in carrying on feed
| ing trials with dairy COWS. If a COW
will produce milk for a month without
having any food to furnish the neces-
sary material. it is evident that the
effect of any feed cannot be measured
in a short period. In an experimental
way it also has bearing on methods
of carrying out many lines of investi-
CATION, as. for example, the effect Of
feeds on the composition of milk. since
here we will have to avoid the proba-
bility that the milk fat taken from that
stored in the body and secreted in the
milk, is of different composition from
normal milk fat.
Another interesting question brought
up by these experiments is it's relation
to the common method of carrying on
been the subject of comment frequently
by leading authorities that in recent
secured in seven day tests than was
formerly the case. The possibility of
increasing the per cent of fat in milk
for period after calving by the means
mentioned has apparently been used by
those who are the most successful in
making these phenomenal seven day
tests. A COW that will average 80 per
cent of fat for the year, can with rea-
sonable certainty be made to test 4 per
cent or even higher for a week if prop
erly handled The way it is done is to
fatten the COW as much as possible be-
fore calving Then after calving, the
animal is fed only moderately and the
test is begun within four or five days.
Under these conditions the animal has
insufficient feed to support the enor-
nous milk and fat production. Since
her BODY IS lOdQed with 1at, t1lS TAT Is
taken from the tissues and large
amount of it secreted in the milk
A large amount of additional inveS-
tigation will have to be carried on to
establish the limitations of this prin-
ciple and to make it possible to I'M
derstand it's full significance. The in
vestigations under way in this line. it is
it possible to reach some definite con-
illusions. The material already at hand
is sufficient and so consistent in every
err there is no doubt of the accuracy
of the general proposition laid down.

COULDN'T WHISTLE.

1t is not nice to have tOothache, and
think the best thing to do, when you
have such a pain, is to run as fast as
you can to Mr.. Dentist
1 once knew a boy who was taken
to the dentist to have tooth which
ached ever so much pulled out. Now,
the boy thought the dentist would
hurt him. and when he was taken into
the room where the dentist pulled out
the teeth of the people who came he
began to cry very, very loudly.
Mr. Dentist was very kind and
clever man, however, and he patted
the boy on the head and said: Il say
my little man, are you good

The boy looked at him, and then
said, YES"
Mr. Dentist gave him another pat
and said, Then let me hear you

have been obtained with two other

how this works out is shown in the
following:
A mature Jersey cow was fed lber-

in order to get her unusually fat I'm

ficient only to maintain her body
weight, according tothemaintenance
values as usually estimated. She was
fed for 80 days on a ration of three
and one half pounds grant and pounds

maintenance. At the beginning she
produced 81 pounds milk day. Dur
ing the 80 days the decline in milk was
very slight. Indeed-at the end of the
80 day period she. was producing 1919
pounds day. During this time she
lost lis pounds in live weight. In the
sively fat for a Jersey cow, but at the
end of the 80 days she was decidedly

that she was becoming weak and she
staggered as she walked On the
twenty ninth day she could scarcely
get up when down, yet she produced
1919 pounds of milk. 1t was not con-
sidered safe to continue the test any
longer and her ration was increased to
a normal amount During the 80 days
this cow produced milk continuously
without any feed whatever to supply
the nutrients 1t is evident that the
solids in the milk must have been TAX

pounds in weight shows this was the
case. During the 80 days. 43 pounds of
fat and SO pounds of other solids were
produced in the milk. The average per
cent of fat during the 80 days was 60;
the normal test for this COW is slightly
under per cent. Within As hours
after her feed was increased at the
end of the 80 days period the per cent
of fat in the milk declined about two

The boy thought this was a very

With the Small Farmer
New Factor Influencing the Per Cent Of Fat in Milk

For a number of years the question
Of increasing the per cent of fat in
milk has been subject for discussion
at almost every farmers meeting. The
farmer, as a rule, assumes that the
richness Of the milk can be increased
by heavy feeding. College and expert
ment station men. basing their coSfclu-
sions upon the results of numerous in
vestigations in different parts of the
world. teach that the per cent Of fat
cannot be influenced by the character
of the ration. except as the work done
at experiment station indicates that
PHOSPHORUS compounds may produce a
slight effect.
During the last few years consider
able data have been gathered in the
experimental work with dairy COWS
which indicate that it is possible for
short time and probably to less de-
gree for longer time The rule seems
to be that when the ration of a cow is
insufficient to support her milk produc-
ton and she draws on the fat stored in
her body, that the per cent of fat in the
milk is increased. The reverse seems 20
