that the extension department has
hired a man to give his entire atten.

which he can use profitably. After
q certain amount of corn Is fed to the
dairy COW, all in addition to that Is
either wasted by passing on undi-
gested or Is converted into fat and
laid upon the body, which Is worse
than wasted because 1t taxes the d.
gestive apparatus and goes to produce
beef which not only has no value. but

work Of the COW.
Other Feed Than Corn Necessary.
In consequence of this the dairy
farmer has learned that it is neces-
sary for him to supply some feed
with the corn raised upon his farm
that contains those nutrients in which
corn Is lacking. He knows that a
balanced ration means nothing more
nor less than the supplying of the
different feeding nutrients in proper
proportions SO that the ration is the
one which will produce the greatest
amount of milk and butter fat at the
least cost. Such a ration Is made up
BY supplying a proper proportion OF
carbohydrates and fat which ara
