ture in January as any feed with
which the dairyman is familiar. Its
succulent or juicy nature especially
ITS 1t for stimulating the milk flow
and keeping the COW in vigorous
health. Probably the most important
rule in the profitable dairy is to keep
the cows milk flowing as freely as pos.
sible after the flow has once been
started by parturition or calf.birth. To
do this demands right feeding and
good care. SIlage is also necessary to
right feeding. Silage Is cheap feed

grown on the farm. This fact is OF
Importance in this day OF high-priced

VALUE OF PURE-BRED SIRES
Prof. {. n. Fraser Of Illinois Expert.
ment Station Explains This
Feature Of Dalrylng.

The value Of a good bull In the
dairy herd is something that dairy
farmers are now giving more attention
to. Prof. z. H. Fraser OF the Illinois
experiment station has made this fea-
ture OF farm dairying q study, and ex-
plains its benefits In this way: III, for
example, the good pure-bred sire Inn
proves the milking capacity Of his
daughters by only one and one-half
pounds Of milk at milking, above the
production OF their dams, this would
mean an increase of 300 pounds Of
milk for the ten months or 300 days
during which the ordinary cows should
give milk; they would also be much
more persistent mixers: that is, would
give milk for longer time in the year,
and would regain their flow OF milk
better after an unavoidable shortage
OF feed as in a summer drought. Such
daughters may certainly be credited
on the average with 1000 pounds more
milk per year than their dams pro-
duced. At the low estimate OF one dol
lar per 100 pounds this extra amount
Of milk would be worth $40 per year.
The average COW is good producer
for at least six years. or until she gets
eight years old. Each daughter having
a pure.bred sire will, therefore. earn
$50 more money in her lifetime be-
cause OF the good qualities Of her sire.
1t will on the average be four years
after purchasing the sire before his
first daughters will have finished their
first lactation period and brought in
the first extra $40. Eight dollars and
twenty-three cents kept at compound
interest for these four years at five
per cent will equal $40. SO daugh-
ter's Improvement or increase OF in.
