Name the calves from the first and
their training will be much easier.
A calf should be fed FIVE times
daily about three pints at each meal.
One of the greatest mistakes In
dairy farming is having too much
land
No farmer can afford to have a
cheap. inferior made silo on his
farm.
Regularity In feeding and milking

dairy work successful.

keepinu Milk Sweet.

One OF our enterprising dairymen
sent a bottle of milk to Paris at the
time OF the exposition. 1t made the
journey over ana back. a trip of %
days, and was still sweet. There was
no preservatives used. and the only
precaution was TO have The dishes and
bottle perfectly sterile, cooling the
milk at once and keeping Il ali the
time at low temperature This seems
a good while to keep milk sweet. but
n shows what cleanliness and a low

Animal should BE Kept n Well
Fenced Pssture-Ration OF Wheat
and Ground Oats 10 Good.

The service bull should be kept in a
well-fenced grass pasture with a shed
TO go under In stormy weather during
the grazing season. Give a mixed
grain ration Of wheat bran and ground
oats. Give two or three quarts OF
grain night and morning n grass is
short, an armful OF cornfodder should
be fed twice a day. The COW to be
served may be turned into the lot
with the bull: after service, give a
small feed Of bran and while bull Ia
eating. throw the stanchion lever, thus
securely fastening the bull the COW
may then be removed without danger.
BY having the cows served so that
part OF the herd will come fresh in
the fall and part In the spring. a reg.
ular quantity OF milk may be had the
year round, without the necessity of
selling on habitat cows at ruinous
prices and buying in fresh cows at
high prices. When this method IL fol
lowed, the dairyman is always in deb.
TO the COW dealer
The bull should be kept in good
thrifty condition. A cross bull may
often be tanned by turning one or two
dry COWS into the lot with him. Bulls
should have daily exercise and be
grain fed. n this Is not done. they
may become impotent or slow in
serving. The young bull should be
kept In a separate pasture and not ell.
lowed TO run with the heifers.
