\ NOTES OF THE DAIRY.

as corn ensilage.
The dairy COW uses practically
three-fourths of her ration for bodily
maintenance and energy.

If skim milk is added to the ration
fed to young chickens it will increase

Handle the cows in such way that
they will be gentle. The gentle cow
almost invariably gives the most milk.
Feed which has been allowed to get
wet will ferment or sour readily and
cause intestinal disorders. Don't feed
1t to your stock.
A feed of roots, especially carrots,
is greatly relished by the colt, if, when
they are cut up, little oatmeal is
scattered over them.
Don't worry about the breed Per-
haps she is only one-eighth Jersey or
Holsten but if the rest is good dairy

The dairy COW needs exercise but
she will get it working over the large
amount of feed she will consume.
She will not need running to get it.

Remember that flies breed in filth
and dust and carry more disease than
rats. Clean up every breeding place
and screen them out of the house and

Whether or not it pays to grind corr
for fattening pigs depends upon the
price of corn and the facilities ane

Mi,ktno Tubes Often Dangerous.

Many valuable hard milking COW
has been ruined, owing to the fact
that the mixer has been compelled to
use a milking tube, and by the use OF
the milking tube the COW has become
infected. oftentimes losing one or
more quarters. 1t is not advisable to
use a milking tube if one can possibly
get along without it, says a writer IN
the Baltimore American.
The proper method OF handling or
overcoming hard milking in cows or
heifers is by the use of teat plug.
The teats should be washed with
germ-killer solution and the teat plug
dipped In the same solution, then
dipped in q little healing ointment and
passed into the point of the teat. The
teat plug, being self-retaining' should
be permitted to remain In the teats
from one milking to another. This

VALUE OF RECORD TO FARMER

1t is a good thing to keep records

great help and satisfaction in clear

arise. 1t requires only small amount
of work to keep them If the work is
