EXPERIMENT IN cow FEEDING
Result Of Number Of Tests Made by
the North Carolina Station on
Rations for Milk.

The North Carolina agricultural ex-
pertinent station recently concluded
a number of experiments to determine
the relative efficiency Of narrow and
medium wide rations, for milk produc-
ton, a report of which has reached
the department Of agriculture.
Eight cows from three to six weeks
in lactation were fed three periods OF
twenty-eight days each. In the first
and third periods the feed consisted
five parts of cottonseed meal, four
quarts wheat bran, three parts of corn
meal and fifty pounds Of corn silage.
The nutritive ratio Of this ration was
about Ia
During the second period the ration
was the same as the above except
that 2.5 pounds Of cottonseed meal
was replaced by 2.6 pounds Of corn
meal, giving this ration q nutritive
ration of about 1.57. The result of this
test indicates that the narrow ration
produced rs per cent. more milk fat
and increased the fat test 0.24 pei
cent. and the live weight 80 pounds
The milk yield was practically the
same.

COWS SHOULD ckLvE IN FALL
Dairy Department es the onNetS
Of Missouri Recommends '"s -
the Best Practice

A number of reasons are gwen ioi
tha nractice of most dairymen OF nav
ing cows calve in the fall insteao =.
In the spring. The Dairy Departinen'
of the University of Missouri RECON-
mends this az the best practlce III
most cases. for some of the following
reasons:
ePrices for milk and butter rat are
highest in the winter, and IT Is desir-
able that the COW be fresh to give inc
maximum flow. When she begins 10
decline in the spring, the fresh grass
Of pastures will stimulate her TO nolo
up to good production.
"Calves in the first few months OF
their growth are fed mostly by hand.
In winter there Is more time 10 care
for them properly. The grass OF
spring will come along just when they
are getting started on rapid grown.
"The dry period Of the COW Will
come at the time of year when pas
lures are usually poor In Missouri:
and when nies are bad. This Will
give relief to the cows wnen tney
need 1t. and will be easier Tor the
mixers.
"In cases where a regular milk
Grade is to be supplied, 1t Is necessary
to have the cows calve at Intervals
50 that there will be almost uni
form dow, but where the farmer Is
selling cream 1t seems best to nave
the calves come In the fall.
The Blackfoot optimist. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1907-1918, 1912-05-13
DAUNOIES

How easy 1t is to forget to wash
the calf pals.
You can save time by teaching your
COWS to go in their proper stalls.
Plan to raise your own protein feeds
this year and cut out the high-priced
mill stuffs.
Breeding for special purpose tends
to develop an animal that will be in
harmony with her function.
The man who is producing milk for
the city trade should have a clear
mind, clean hands and a pure heart.
Few dairymen now make butter to
sell. The price paid for butter fat by
creameries takes all the cream from
the farm.
With corn fodder, corn silage and
clover, alfalfa or cowpea hay on hand,
the dairyman may consider himself
ready for business.
Undissolved salt in butter is the re-
suit Of too little moisture in the but
ter, too coarse salt, or the butter be-
ing too firm when sailed.
Don't overstock the pastures the
coming season. Better pay a pretty
good price to get the young stock
pastured before doing that.
A drouthy summer followed by a
severe winter are the conditions that
will boost the silo next summer as 1t
has never been boosted before.
The hired man who Is attached to
the farm by his own family, his home
and regular work Is seldom one who
is discontinued with his position.
The dairyman has NO right to COM
plain of the labor problem unless he
is willing to give a good faithful man
steady work all the year around.
1t is easier to keep specks out OF
the butter than to get them out.
