CARE OF cow AND CALF.
The Effect of Precautions Before Birth
Are Farreaching and Must Not
Be Underestimate.

Throughout the months of April and
May many cows become fresh, and
each should have full four weeks
rest before time for the calf to arrive
During these last four weeks she
should be fed good, nutritious food,
consisting Of clover hay, with liberal
messes Of bran, and if necessary ton
les and condition powders should be
added to keep her in proper shape for
the emergency to come.
In ninety-nine cases out Of a hun
dred, these careful attentions may not
be necessary, and the cow will get
along all right and apparently do as
well to rough it, but who knows but
that his cow may be the hundredth
one and be lost from milk fever or
some other disease that can be attrib-
uted to improper care?
A COW doesn't have to be fat to be
In proper condition for calving. She
should be in good enough condition to
be strong and healthy. A fat COW
may be in the very worst kind o. con-
ditiOn, and this is the reason why so
many fat COWS die Of milk fever after
becoming fresh.
By all means keep the cows appe-
tite good and bowels loose, feed her
properly and see that she gets plenty
| OF exercise and good water. Then
there will be little danger at calving
/ time. In fact, the cow will come out
all right with a big, strong, healthy
calf that is well born and ready to
start on the way for a good, healthy
and profitable animal.
There is little to say about teaching
the calf to drink milk, for most every
body has had his ups and downs at
that, and each has his own way,
The Washington bee., 1911-04-08
LARGER MILK PRODUCTION.
Every Cow Will Respond to Good
Treatment-A Proper Feed-SIip-
shod Methods Must Disappear.

Statistics tell US that the average
cow produces only about 16O pounds of
butter annually. This at, say, % cents
per pound is only $40. At a very con-
servatiYe estimate she costs her owner
$50 per year for feed.
Granted that the skimmiIk. butter-
milk and manure are worth all they
cost to care for her and we have a net
profit of $40. That is a pretty good
rate OF interest on the capital invested,
and were 1t not possible to do better
we might feI pretty well satisfied,
particularly when we consider the
value Of the calf too.
But when we know it is possible to
do far better than this it is not salts
factory. The same common COW. no
better than the average animal, better
than some, but not so good as many
others, will produce 25O pounds of but
ter when properly fed and cared for.
Let US say she Will produce 24O
pounds. Her annual product would
then be worth $50 instead of $40. We
will allow her an extra $40 for cost of
feed, which is a very liberal allowance.
as it will be spent mainly for cOncen-
trates. Her owner viii then receive
$50 for $40 worth of feed, or S1.5O
worth of product for 81 worth of feed.
He has been paid for all his extra feed
and receives double the profit from his
cows.
increase in production will be largely
brought about by individual effort
rather than by a concerted movement
upon the part of dairy farmers. One
after another is turning from slip
shod to scientific dairying, and the
term may be used as applying to the
business of the dairyman who begins
to think and act intelligently, although
he be far from being an expert.
When one begins to carry on the
business intelligently he soon learns
that it will pay him to keep a better
cow than the average. Instead of
being satisfied with the 24O pound COW,
he will aim for the 800 mark, and the
$50, and then the 400 mark.
He will begin by giving his COWS
feed that will produce all the milk
they will produce economically. He
will give them good care so that they
will be comfortable. He will then give
thought to his future herd He will
place just as good a dairy sire at the
head Of the herd as he can get. He
will keep the heifer calves from his
best mixers, and he viii know which
are his best mixers, because that is
part Of his business. He will gradual
ly increase the efficiency Of his dairy
herd and at the same time will In
crease in the knowledge of dairying.
But while he is doing this hundreds
and thousands of his fellow farmers
will continue in the same old rut, new
er becoming enthusiastic over dairying
because it doesn't do for them what is
claimed for it. They have nothing to
become enthusiastic about.
AS Ex-Governor Hoard of Wisconsin
once said:
"If the cows of this country had
voices they would be heard calling for
a better breed of dairymen."

CARE OF PARROTS.
The Proper Way of Feeding, casing
and Teaching the Bios How
to Speak.

As few people who own parrots real
ly know how to care for them, a few
good rules may be Of interest.
AS to their food, it should be seeds
canary, hemp Out not too much), mil
let boiled maize, linseed, rape and the
like. Bread soaked In hot water Is
good, given twice q day, and fruit In
moderation and In variety Is whole
some. such as grapes. apples and
pears, an occasional raisin and let
tUce.
Gray parrots are very fond Of rice.
and almost all parrots appreciate rice
pudding and have a taste, too. for
bread and butter. Meat is bad for
them. Clean, fresh wood should be
given them to gnaw-bits Of elm, birch,
larch and chestnut. Fresh dry gravel
must be sprinkled at the bottom OF
the cage every day and fresh water
be put in the glass.
1t is important that parrots should
have the opportunity TO stand fat foot
ed, so II the cage has wires at the
bottom it is well to remove them. AL
ways u have his claws clasping q
round perch is injurious to any bird,
and two perehes Of different size are
advisable, so that he may change his
posture at Will.
When a parrot continues to scream
he wants water or food OF feels Ill
and uncomfortable or maybe is mere
ly dull. Music, which be loves, will
cheer him up at all times.
4 parrot learns to talk only from
one who speaks very slowly and dis
tinctly TO him and preferably when he
is about to fall asleep. Last, bat not
least, a parrot should be carefully
covered at night-London NaiI.

THE FINAL POSE.
He Wanted to Make the Thing Harmo-
nious and Complete All
Around

In the early days OF travelling by
stagecoach across the Rocky noun
tains the trip was likely to be relieved
Of monotony by incidents Of no ordi-
nary occurrence. But the fatigue OF
the journey was apt to wear upon the
nerves of the weak and the timid.
Sometimes the passengers became so
worn out as to lead to a suspicion Of
their sanity. The Right Rev. D. s.
Tuttle In his "Reminiscences Of q Mis-
sionary Bishop" describes an instance
In point
One forenoon the coach rolled into
Denver, and the six horses came pranc-
ing up to the Office OF Wells. Fargo &
Co. A large crowd was assembled, as
the incoming and the outgoing Of the
daily coaches were the great events
for the town.
At the stop the only passenger quick
ly threw open the coach door, leaped
10 the ground, ran hurriedly across the
street and, turning handspring,
stood on his head with his heels up
against supporting wall.
Several men followed him. quite sure
that here was another passenger Graz
ed by the long. sleepless ride. One
said to him in a tone OF sympathy,
''Why. cap'n. what's the matter"
Slowly coming to a right side up
posture, the man answered; "Well, my
friend. I'll tell you what it is. This
standing on my head is the only posi-
tion which / haven't been IN during
the last twenty-four hours in yonder
coach, and wanted to make the
thing harmonious and complete all
round"

Hear and Evsrts.

On one Of his later birthday snniysr-

his length Of years. In his reply the
aged lawyer said it brought t. mind
an old lady in New England who had
occasion 10 write to a friend about
some matter OF trihing importance and
when she had reached the end If ths

that she had been rather dfnuss and
added, 'Pleass excuse my longevity"

Plenty of Water For Calves.

Calves, like other farm animals, get
thirsty, even though milk forms a
large part of their ration. Calves three
months of age will drink as much as
five quarts of water daily per head.
They drink often, slipping a little at
a time. A half barrel, cleaned and
replenished twice daily, will serve
nicely as a water trough.
Another good device is an auto
matte waterer which may be easily
cleaned, situated a little above the
floor to keep out the litter. Salt is
essential to the development of the
calf, as Of other animals, and should
be kept continually available.
