1872 DAIRY FEEDING.


The present high prices of grain an.
roughages make pertinent the enquiry
of What IA ton shall we feed the dairy
COW in order TO secure the best results al
the least expense.
The roughage problem is best solved by
an abundance of corn silage with alfalfa
or clover hay. Next in order Is hay from
mixed grasses. oats cut in the milk stage
and. lastly, timothy hay. Corn sllage is
of primary importance since, without It,
a COW will require AT least twice as much
hay and a more expensive grain ration
Grain should be fed in proportion to the
amount of milk or butterfat the COW
gives. A good rule is to feed the cow one
pound of grain for every three to four
pounds of milk she produces.
Prices of grain and the character of
roughages determine the kind Of grain
mixture to be used. 1t does not pay to
feed any kind of farm grown grain to
cows without grinding II. Whole corn fed
10 cows shows loss Of - per cent. Of
the grain. The loss In feeding whole oats
is nearly as great. Frequently, II is eco
nomical to sell certain grains and buy
| others in their place. Oats. for instance.
are high priced. Since oats are about
equal in feeding value TO mixture of
! equal parts OF corn and wheat bran. it
Is not difficult TO determine whether oats
should he sold and bran or other concen-
trates bought to take Its place
The dairy COW uses food for Ave pur-
poses maintenance OF body. making OF
milk, development OF foetus. growth II
animal is immature. and for gain in
| weight. For each OF these purposes.
| three classes OF food are required: ]. pro-
| tcin for muscular tissue and the nitro
| Renous material OF milk. ., carbohydrates
and fats for heat and energy s. ash or
| mineral matter for growth or bones. In
| ordinary feeds. the last is supplied In
| sufficient quantities SO that it il with tho
| first two classes we are chiefly concerned
! The most economical feed Is the one
that supplies the most protein and energy
! for one dollar expended some feeds
, selling for forty dollars per tom are
| really more economical rhan others seA-
ing at thirty dollars AT present prices.
| cottonseed meal is the cheapest protein
| feed on the market, and corn meal il
the cheapest energy feed. hence grain
| mixture should be made UP largely o.
these feeds pirs some light grpjns. such
as distilers dry grains or bran to give
| bulk to the MIXTURE Urea brewers
grains. dried d!stilers grains and gluten
feed are about equal to one another in
feeding value and are more economical
than bran or oats. satisfactory mixture
TO go with corn siiage and mixed hay
may be made up Of four hundred pounds
corn meal or barley. two hundred pounds
| Of dried brewers grain, dried distillers
grain. Ajax fakes. or gluten feed One
| hundred pounds OF wheat bran and two
hundred pounds OF cottonseed meal Tim
othy hay at twenty dollars per ton Is a
very expensive roughage. Glover hay at
| eighteen dollars and silage at four dollars
| give ration nearly ten cents cheaper
per day than one in which timothy alone
forms the roughage.

CAUSES AND REMEDIES OF POOR
MAPLE PRODUCTS.

(By Prof. Edison. OF the United states
Department OF Agriculture.)
Poor maple products result from the
presence of extraneous material in the
sap or from physiological changes oc-
curing in the tree. The physiologi-
cal changes, which produce a true
buddy flavor. never occur late in the
season in Vermont and in some years
not until after it's close. The color Of
the syrup Is not effected by these
changes in the sap. but In exceptional
seasons the flavor may he damaged as

in color. This buddy flavor may lie
expected i'm the late runs OF a season
that has been long continued and in
tcrrupted by periods of warm weather
which have stimulated the tree into
vegetative activity. There Is no way
TO remedy this defect. 1t should be
noted. however, that much so.called
buddy syrup is, In reality. not buddy
but its poor quality Is due to other
preventative causes.
Extraneous material may he CLASH

The living material present in sap con-

less frequently mods The bacteria are
the more numerous and the most I'm

serious trouble. These organisms are the
causes OF the souring OF sap and are
