BOWLING SCORES LOW,
Jeffries Makes Highest During the
Week With 1877.

Logan's team took three straight
from the Davis team in their match
games of Monday night, winning the
first two by good margins and the
last by SO points. The bowling was
not as good as either team has done
on previous occasions but would av-
erage well with the list. Jeffries,
OF Logan's team, made the highest
score of the week during these
games, scoring 157 in two games.
Knapp, of the Davis team, came

no EXCUSE FOR DIRTY milk
By A, c. Page, Missouri College o.
Agriculture.


By A, c. Page, Missouri College Of
Agriculture.
A menagerie, a graveyard, or the
best, most wholesome food drink IN
the world; that is the question they
are crying to decide in the cities in re-
gard to pure milk.
Dirty milk, as it is produced by
some dairies, is even worse than a
menagerie. The germs it contains do
not have horns and claws, but they
can do moro damage than some an
imals that lave They carry disease
with them wherever they go, and are
a menace to human health. Strong
men drinking such milk often sur
vive. Germs cannot take hold well on
a healthy man or woman But the
tender infant is unable to resist these
germs. and so about one third of all
the infants that die under one year
old, die from the work Of these same
germs. There is absolutely no excuse
for dirty milk, and no place for it in
civilization,
Some have proposed pasteurization
as a method Of purifying the milk sup

system. And as soon as these are

ADVANTAGES
OF A SILO
Almost Indispensable IN EOaaTD
Farming,
SILRGE IN IMPORTANT FACTOR
BY A. c. Page, Missouri College OF
Agriculture.

BY A. c. Page, Missouri College of
Agriculture.
Some men still don't believe in the
silo. They do not see the advantage
Of it and are not willing to admit that
it has many advantages And it costs
money to Duild a silo.
Silage is one OF the very important
factors in modern farming. There is
no branch Of stock farming in which
it is not an advantage to use silage,
for even the chickens do well on it.
The least need for it, perhaps, is in an
exclusive horse or mule business. But
there are few farms of this kind in the
state. Wherever cattle are, there
should be a silo.
What are the advantages of silage?
1t is palatable. Cattle will eat a large
amount of it and do well on it because
they like 1t. Experiments have shown
that no matter how much nutriment
a food may contain, it is of primary
Importance that it be palatable. The
digestive juices flow more freely and
assimilation is better. 1t utilizes all
of the corn plant, except the roots, and
they are better left in the ground any.

would otherwise be hard and horny

GRAIN TO
COWS ON PASTURE
Plan is Of Doubtful Value / Pas
tuTe is Abundant

BY c. H. Eckles, Professor OF Dairy
ing, College of Agriculture, Uniyer-
sity Of Missouri.
There Is some difference of opinion
as to the economy Of feeding grain to
COWS while they are on pasture. A
COW will certainly produce more milk
if fed grain while on pasture, and il
a large yield is of more importance
than economy Of production, then
grain should be fed. The COW that
produces only an average amount OF
milk will produce only a little more
with grain than without it if the pas
ture is good. With the high-produc-
ing COW however, the cas- is quite
different, and it is necessary that she
be fed grain, OF she will not continue
on the high level Of production long.
The necessity for feeding grain to the
high-producing COW arises from the
fact that she cannot secure a sufficient
amount Of nutrients from the grass
alone, and therefore must have some
form Of concentrated feed in the form
OF grain
Experiments made by the Cornell
Experiment station. covering four
years, showed that while an Increase
of milk yield was secured from grain
feeding, It was not economical to pro
duce il in this way They secured
only about an additional pound OF
milk for each pound OF grain fed In
.hese experiments the pastures pro
duced an abundance Of nutritious
grasses. They observed, however,
that the cows fed grain gave better
results after the grazing period was
over than those not having received
grain. This is also a matter Of com.
mon observation, and should be taken
into account in considering the advis-
ability OF feeding grain.
The point IS t'iat the cows fed grain
stored a considerable amount of sur.
plus nutrients on their bodies, which
was afterwards available for the pro
duction Of milk.
A Jersey COW that is giving as much
as twenty pounds-or ten Quarts-peI
day, or a Holstein or Shorthorn giving
twenty-five pounds or more daily
should be given some grain. Fol-
either Of these, about three pounds
OF grain per day would be right, ant
it should be increased somewhat more
in proportion for COWS Of higher pro
duction.
It must be kept in mind that this ap
plies only when pastures are album
dant. When a small amount Of grail

hogs. The mistake is most often made
of putting on too many head per acre
in May and June, when the forage is
having plenty Of rains and making
rapid growth. After the rains have
ceased and the forage makes slow
growth, then the hogs soon consume
the surplus and eat it too closely be.
fore the feeder notices it.
Generally speaking, it may be said
that an acre of red clover should sup
port eight to ten hogs for three or four
months. Alfalfa should pasture from
twelve to twenty head for the same
length of time. Alfalfa should not,
however, be pastured so closely that
moving will not be necessary. The
rule should be to put on only so many
hogs as will allow one cutting Of hay
to be taken of during the pasturage
season. The first season OF alfalfa
should be pastured only lightly, If at
all. Not more than ten head per acre
should be used.
Bluegrass will support eight to
twelve head per acre for five months.
Green rye will support from ten to
twelve for eight weeks. Ripe rye
grain will support ten to twelve head
for FIVE tc eight weeks.
Cowpeas, soy-beans, chufas, arti-
chokes and peanuts will provide feed
for eight to twelve head for Ave to
eight weeks, depending on the amount
of grain given.
Rape is a very vigorous grower and
will furnish succulent forage for nine
to twelve head per acre for eight to
twelve weeks. Best results with rape
are obtained where oats and clover
are sown with it.
Corn that is to be hogged OF when
mature will feed, when there is an es-
timated yield Of fifty bushels per acre,
ten hogs for five weeks, or thirty
hogs for about two weeks.
While good forage will reduce the
amount of grain necessary to produce
a nound of gain from one-third to one
half. vet the forage should not be used
alone except when only a maintenance
ration is desired. Mature hogs thin
in flesh NAV be expected to gain on
good forage without grain, about one
half n Mound daily. However, good for
age under average conditions is about
/ equal to a maintenance ration. The

ITO get the best results, either in
profit or beauty, the farmer has to
think. He does not deal with simple
processes, such as the blacksmith
does in fitting metal shoes to horses
feet. He deals with complex forces
that demand keen thinking and an
analysis if he is to make nature yield
him profit and satisfaction. He must
be a student all the time or run down
his soil and his herds. He needs also
to take advantage OF the experience OF
