Feed the Cow Literally
She Is Least Wasteful When Given All She Will Use
Consider Her AS a Milk Producing Machine


To maintain the condition Of early
summer is, in general, the great prob.
lem in winter feeding of dairy COWS.
1t is entirely possible to maintain
practically these summer conditions
throughout the entire winter on any
farm when the subject is properly un.
derstood and the necessary arrange
ments made.
An abundance of palatable food is
n condition typical of summer feed
ing. On this point one Of the most
common mistakes is made in feeding
cows. We should look upon the COW,
in a way, as a milk-producing ma.
chine. We supply her with a certain
amount of raw material in the form
of feed, and this raw material is man.
ufactured into milk. The same rule
holds as in the running of any other
manufacturing plant-it is run most
economically near its full capacity.
Everyone who feeds cows should
know. first of all, that the animal
must use a certain portion of her food
to maintain the body. This is the
first requirement of the animal, and it
is the first use to which it puts its
food. This is called the ration of
maintenance, and it is practically a
fixed charge. That is, it is practically
the same whether the animal is De.
ing utilized for maximum production
or is merely kept without producing
any milk at all.
1t should be clear that after going
to the expense of giving the animal
the necessary amount to keep her
alive it is the poorest economy to re-
fuse to furnish the other 40 to so per
cent, which she would utilize exclu-
sively for milk production. On the
average farm this is one of the com.
mon mistakes made.
The Importance of liberal feeding
for economical production can be cas-
lily understood from the following il.

Guilty and to hear his opinion about
Holland. AS a rule, Dutch people trav-
cling and staying In hotels hold them
selves stiffly aloof from others, but not
from the American. These are priv,
LEGGED beings and are generally made
much of, for there is something genial
about them that seem to attract the
less demonstrative nature of the Hol-
lander. Why, even the American
newspaper correspondents are popu.
lar in Holland and can obtain advan.
tages denied to those of their col.
leagues of other nationalities, and even
to the Dutch press itself. Perhaps
the last is the strongest proof Of any
Of Americas popularity.

Her Name Was Not Polly Ticks.

During the late campaign an Illinois
candidate for the legislature was driv-
ing through the country, seeking votes
among the farmers, when he met a
young man in farmers garb, walking
By the roadside.
Having in mind a prospective vote,
he stopped his horse, and saluting him
in a familiar manner, inquired:
Are you paying any attention to
politics nowadays?"
The young man stopped, looked at
him suspiciously, and drawled out:
mo, stranger; that don't happen to
be my gals name; but eff it was, l
wouldn't think it was any Of your
burned business"
This ended the interview as well as
the prospect.

EQUALIZATION of Assessments.

LEFTY Of assessments appearing In
| the Sunday Caucasian has stimulat-
eG an unbounded interest from ev-
cry class of the people who are
owners of property.
In this publicity the Inequalities
have been made manifest by COM
parison which cannot be disputed.
It is not intended TO blame any
one nor to discredit a system which
is antiquated, but it is proposed to
have all the inequalities adjusted on
fair basis which is possible
1t has been stated that there IS
no law to warrant the adjustment
> of the irregularities except through
the assessor and the authority of
the Police Jury.
Such statement is misleading
and has declared in recent issue
! of the Caucasian, What has been
accomplished in Baton Rouge Is IN
questionably within the reach OF
Shreveport.
In this issue are two letters bear
ing OH the fair equalization of as
sessments which should be perused
by the citizens who are concerned
in welfare Of Shreveport.

.iect is presented in the official re-
port from Baton Rouge an assess

shown that the assessments for the
wear 1912 is Calcasieu S3S,242,22O,
against s38,026. $50 for 1911. and Cad
do Parish for the year 1912 is
s25, 552, 265 against 500, 097 ,020 in 1911.
With its railroads and oil and gas
fields and other enterprises CaddO
should be at least on par with Cal

TO avoid a misunderstanding or a
misconception of the purpose of the
publicity of assessments, it is stated
that the movement for equalization
is being confined to the City OF
