Good Rations
For the Cows

According to an authority on feed
ing, buying grain for cows is a mat.
ter that takes considerable nerve at
the present price on the market It is
question. too, that takes lot of
thought and study. Many farmers ara
asking their neighbors what they feed
and how much. Many are putting
more thought and study into just such
questions as feed and feeding. where
as twenty years ago almost any way
and any kind of feed would do.
The great question of today with
the dairyman Is what to feed and how
much. 1t is a question that needs the
closest attention. But how shall the
man care for his cows under the farm
conditions and cOnveniences that are
at the command of the ordinary farm
er? When the COW is on full feed of
grass little thought need be taken of
her. but this is comparatively small
part Of the year. and, in fact. some
practice feeding something the entire
year.
A small amount of grain fed even
on the flush Of feed will repay the
owner. In fact. some farmers prac-
tice feeding ensilage also when on
grass When it comes little later
in the season the weather gets hot and
the flies are troublesome. II Is abso-
lutely necessary to feed something in
connection with pasturage to main
tain anything like a full flow of milk.
The ration for a COW should be gov.
erned. of course. according to the abil-
ity of the COW to assimilate her food
and convert it into milk. 1t is impOs-
sible to lay down any rules to go by,
but feed the cows all they will take
and make proper use Of Some con-
tend that eight pounds of grain per
day is enough for an average COW. but
it Is not A good rational way to feed
COW Is to commence when she
freshens with FIVE or six pounds a
day, begin to increase the feed and
gradually do so as long as you can in
crease the flow Of milk and are sure
that she is properly digesting her
food.
1t always pays to feed the COW all
that she can convert into milk with
out waste. provided one has grain
ration that balances up on a ratio of
] to 5.5 or Whereabouts. Take farm
grown grains and buy enough wheat
bran, oilmeal. cottonseed meal or
some of the protein feeds to balance
up the ration. What is a balanced ra-
ton? 1t is the proper amount OF feed
The Randall County news. (Canyon City, Tex.) 1908-1926, 1910-04-15

to sustain the animal for twenty-four
hours and furnish the nutrients for
her to do her work on. But the aver
age farmer is not going to weigh each
cows milk each day and then weigh
each cows ration and make them ex-
actly correspond. 1t makes some diff
ference as to the individual animals
(the breeds enter into this to certain
extent). the condition under which the
cattle are kept, etc. To give the dairy
COW working ration, then. one must
select such feeds as will contain the
necessary amount of protein.
OF the grains raised oats are the
most valuable. barley next and corn
last so far as the protein content is
concerned; of the folders alfalfa hay,
clover. oat hay. oats cut when in the
milk and cured into hay, redtop, mil
let. timothy. fodder corn. cornstalks
and sllage 1t is impossible to COM
pound ration of home grown crops
with a sufficient amount of protein.
And to get the best results it is econ
omy to buy some concentrated feed
even at what may seem to be high
price
When it comes to roughage, clover
hay is of itself balanced ration, ac-
cording to the best authorities, but 1t
is impossible to get best results from
| the COW or even paying results when
fed on roughage alone. Silage Is very
low in protein and yet is a very valu,
able food In fact. silage has not as
much protein, ton for ton, as oat
! straw. 1t valuable because of Its
succulence and as an aid to digestion.
| The silage aids in the digestion Of
everything the COW eats. Ensilage and
grain should be fed the first thing in
the morning; then the milking and sep.
arating should be done. then at noon
feed ten to fifteen pounds Of clover
and alfalfa hay The same method is
followed in the evening with ensilage
and grain. The ration for strictly
fresh cows should be one and one hall
pounds of cilmeal. one and one-haii
pounds of cottonseed meal. three
pounds Of cornmeal and four pounds
of first quality bran.

RECLAMATION SERVICE
MAN SERIOUSLY HURT

Williston, N. D., Aug. 2.-Henry
Smith, employed at the power house
of the reclamation service, met with
a serious accident which came near
costing him his life and which re-
suited in a broken collar bone and
other painful injuries.
The accident occurred about four
o'clock. Smith was working about the
machinery when in some manner he
became caught in the conveyor that
elevates the coal to the crusher. Be-
sides sustaining a fracture of the COL
lar bone, his hand was badly smash
ed, one finger being broken, and his
left side severely scraped and bruised.
The injured man was at once
brought to town and taken to the
office of DR.. Hagen who set the brok
en- bones and dressed the other in
juries. When seen this morning Mr..
Smith was resting as we'll as could be
expected after his narrow escape.

TO FAST FOR FORTY DAYS.
Dr.. Gayer Thinks Only a Water Diet
Will Improve His Health.

DR.. Gustave A. Gayer, president of
the Society For Applied Psychics, of
131 West Sixty-third street. New York,
began the other day a fast which he
hopes to be able to keep up for forty
days. At any rate, he is going to try
to do without food for three weeks.
He hopes to be able to demonstrate the
value Of fasting not only as body
cleanser, but as means for improving
the condition of the subconscious mind
and giving the forces Of life some op-
portunity to gather themselves and
gain strength. Several physicians will
watch the doctor carefully and make
examinations from time to time. DR..
Gayer has made fasting experiments
before, but for not longer than two
weeks.
During my fast will sleep out Of
DOORS" said the doctor. "This will be
no new experiment, however, for reg
ularly sleep in tent in my back yard
winter and summer. Water will be the
only sustenance will take until the
fast is over. expect to lose consider.

CROP IS IMPROVED
AROUND ALEXANDER

Alexander, Aug. 2.-This week prac-
tically marks the beginning of harvest
in this community and the song of the
reaper is abroad in the land. The
grain has of late taken on that golden
tinge and the husbandman has &C.
cordingly taken on that characteris-
tic hustle.
Under favorable weather conditions
the crops in this country improved
considerably in the past few weeks,
and the general feeling among the
farmers has become more optomistic.
Many are expecting yield of ten
bushels to the acre and a few as high
as fifteen bushels. AS compared with
last year the wheat in this county will
make about good half crop. Oats
and other small grains will probably
go little below fifty per cent crop.
Flax is looking good, especially late
fax, and conservative estimate gives
this county about three fourths of
crop of fax. The acreage of corn in

GRASSHOPPERSAREA
PEST AT Devils LAKE

Is this country to be visited by a
plague of grasshoppers? The old tim
ers who were in Kansas, Nebraska and
parts of Iowa and Minnesota in 1874
5, can see a strong resemblance be-
tween the conditions now and thirty
six years ago, when the states above
mentioned were visited by the pests.
1t is remarked that grasshoppers
are becoming alarmingly numerous in
this state, and it is said that if dry
weather should develop next spring
the eggs of the hoppers now being
laid will hatch out in large numbers,
devastating every thing green in the
country.
Yesterday it was noticed that Dew
lis Lake was literally covered with
grasshoppers which had fallen into
the lake. Gulls and every winged
thing that can swim are having a
great picnic.-Devils Lake Journal.

Theater For Deaf Mutes.

A "newer theater" that will over
shadow many others not alone in its
novelty, but In the idea Of uplift, is
being developed at the Wisconsin
School For the Deaf in Delavan, Wis,
under the personal direction Of Super
intendent Il. w. Walker. In short
time it is expected that the unfortu
mates without hearing or power Of
speech will be able to enjoy the stage
as fully and with the same understand
ing as those who hear and speak. The
idea grows out Of performance given
at Delavan some weeks ago, when
Shakespearcs Flaming Of the Shrew"
was presented in the sign language.
