wish to make the following sugges-
tions concerning the succession of
succuent forage for the year:
Root crops mangel wurzeIs, ruta-
bagas, turnips, carrots and potatoes
may be grown and fed direct from the
field or stored and fed in such an
order as to provide roots for an entire
year. They may be fed to the best
advantage in the following order:
and mangel wurzel Forage other
than roots may be had during the
greater portion of the year at least by
planning and caring for different
crops so as to mature them at such
times as needed. Fall sowu vetches
and winter rye are ready for soiling
in May. Grasses and clovers will
furnish green feed during the latter
part of May and June and little
latter. Many of the varieties of field
peas, sown alone or with spring oats
or wheat, are ready for soiling the
latter part of June and July. Thous-
and headed kale may be had late in
August to the following May. Corn
may be had from late August until
mature or until killed by the frosts.
There may be times during the summer
in which there will be a shortage of
succulent forage. Such period may
be provided for by the judicious use
Of small pasture, allowing the grass
to grow during the periods when other
feeds are available, but pasturing at
such times as there is a scarcity of
other green stuffs. BY selecting the
best varieties of the forage plants
mentioned above, and varying the
dates of planting according to local
conditions, green food may be had
throughout the entire year.

Questions and HnSWers

Question: Is cement floor good
for a COW stable? w. J. B. Snohomish,
Wash.
Answer: A cement floor is the
most sanitary and in the long run the
cheapest of any of the barn floors that
are in use. 1t has it's disadvantages
to be sure, the most important of
which being that it is a good conductor
of heat SO that it is always cold.
However, if the proper precautions are
taken in its construction there need
no harm result from the use of them.
If the barn is not situated so as to
allow natural drainage, a tile drain
should be laid under the floor to pre-
vent the moisture from coming in
contact with the cement. After the
proper grading is made, five or six
inches of cobble stones should first be
laid, then about three inches of
cinders and after that the concrete,
and lastly the finishing coat. The
cinders is to insulate the floor from
the ground. 1t makes a very efficient
non conductor of heat. 1t is advocated
by authorities to put three layers of
tar paper on top of concrete and
under the finish coat. This paper is
put on with coal tar between each
layer. 1t makes very good insulator.
Even though these precautions are
taken the floor will feel cold in the
coolest weather and it is therefore
advisable to use bedding literally.
It cement floor is properly con-
structed it should last life time and
be perfectly sanitary and comfortable.
Question: Is vetch a good butter
fat producer? Is corn fodder in the
green and tender stalk good for dairy
cows? How much buGterfat should
a COW produce to be profitable, feeding
the above feeds? Fl. and W., Kenne-
wick, Wash.
Vetch is highly heterogeneous and
should be fed about the same as
alfalfa. 1t is very good feed for
dairy COWS; while it does not produce
butterfat, it helps to balance wide
ration so that COW will do her best
work.
Green corn fodder makes excellent
COW feed. 1t gives one of the largest
yields, and the most feed on a given
area OF any of the forage crops. 1t
should be fed when kernels are fairy
hard, but while the stalk is still juicy.
Under most conditions and at the
present price of feeds or cost of grow
ing crops, COW must produce 200
pounds Of fat per year in order to
bring profit to the owner.
