parts. and distillers grains parts.
Where the COW requires variation IN
her feed small amounts OF dried brew
ers grains or oil meal are used occa-
sionally
Prof. w. A Henry speaks as TO-.
lows regarding these feeds; Wheat
bran Is especially valuable due to its
laxative properties. II furnishes bulk
and plenty OF protein and ash so es-
sential in milk formation. The com.
bination OF bran and corn meal is not
excelled as a dairy feed. The bulk
of the oat though carrying little nu-
triment renders this grain a feed OF
light character which is easily di-
gestible. Oats contain a higher pro
portion Of digesuble protein than corn
or wheat This grain in itself is
well-balancsd ration Corn meal is a
heavy. rich feed and should always be
lightened or extended by the use of
bran. shorts, oil meal or some other
feed of light character"
Feeding experiments prove that
dried distillers' grains are more yalH-
able than oats as a feed for the dairy
herd Cows are fond Of brewers
grains and their use influences a good
milk flow. Because of the sloppy
character of wet brewers grains they
should be supplemented by some dry
feed in the winter ration

II is easy 10 make COWS give an
abundant flow Of milk In spring and
summer when pastures are luNuriant
and the days warm. but in the severe
winter months the greatest skill OF the
feeder is demanded TO keep up the pro
duction OF the dairy herd. BY buying
plenty OF expensive feeds il is possible
10 do this. but that removes the profits
and the problem is. how 70 get large
production OF milk from an economical
system OF feeding.
Many dairymen make a great mis-
take in not keeping enough grain and
roughage TO carry their herds through
the winter Instead they sell grain
and roughage IN large amounts and
as a result find themselves handi-
capped for feed before spring pasture
Is available Unless a man grows
enormous crops. this sale Of farm prod
uct In its original form not only robs
the soil OF fertility but also IS a false
economy. for the reason that in late
winter the farmer has 20 buy feed az
high prices when the supply is scarce
or has 10 sell his cattle because Of
lack Of feed for them.
Much wiser is the dairy farmer
who fills his feed bins and his silo or
his root cellar and feeds their CON
tents 10 his herd during the winter
