ISOLATION, Judging from the data on
hand, fall cows will here as elsewhere
prove by far the most profitable.
Why they are the most profitable is
easily understood when one considers
the following reasons:
| Cows that freshen in the fall, by
careful feeding give a good flow Of
milk all winter and when turned on
May, June and July pastures will come
up again in their milk flow and will
dry up, as usual, in late summer when
! fys are bad and pastures short.
The cow that freshens In early
spring or winter months viii milk We'll
until fly time and when pastures are
short will then drop down, often pro
ducing milk about six months
Its almost impossible to get cows
flow back, unless succulent feeds such
as silage and roots are available, and
will then continue to be a stripper fol
a month or two, when a person will
get discouraged and stop milking let
ting the COW stand dry four months
Of the year.
One cow freshinging between Sept
18th and Oct. 18th will milk at least
two months longer as it is hardly prob
able that COW will dry up when on
our succulent June pastures.
Then too. with the fall COW
your labor is much cheaper as helr
in the winter is plenty, is cheaper and
easier to get than during harvest and
threshing.
Calves born in the fall are stall fed
during winter months and turned out
on pasture in the spring requiring
not nearly the care.
The price Of butter fat is much high
er during the fall and winter months
In April butter fat was 35c per pound
May &c, June Csc, July Csc, Aug. 26c
Sept. 32c, Nov. 34c. This will amount
to in the neighborhood Of 20 per cen
more for the winter months.
In the Albert Lea, MIMI. Testing
association the record Of 179 fall cow
is per COW: Milk 5716 pounds; butter
fat 225 pounds. 1855 spring cows
milk 1915 pounds; butter fat 49,
pounds, a difference in butter fat Of Al
pounds in favor Of the fall cows. This
If even, at the saem price will realize
1894 more profit for the fall COW o.
considering too an increase Of 20 PEI
cent in price received for butter IA
the difference will be 1858. A return
Of 10 per cent on $167.30.
In the face Of these figures, winter
feeding becomes = very important fac
tor in successful dairying.

hydrate, 992; fat, go.
This is far too low in protein, and,
as has been mentioned the milk dow
is regulated by all the constituents Of
feeds according to their proportion In
the feed therefore while we have in q
ration Of this kind plnty Of fat and
carbohydrate the milk low will not
be maintained because our protein Is
too low, and without the protein the
carbohydrate and fatty material is not
made use Of for milk production.
The showing Of these rations Is not
to have the farmer adopt them but to
show that millet is better feed than
corn fodder, because Of the higher
per cent Of protein. Under general
conditions, feed protein feeds as much
as possible. Feed hay in propotion
Of l IL pound to every 100 pounds Of
animal weight and one pound Of grain

feeding too little we take the follow.

ROADS ARE GIVEN
SUBSTANTIAL BOOST
Legislature Makes Appropria-
tions of Many Thousands
of Dollars.

The legislature gave road building in
Utah a substantial boost. The general
road bill introduced in the house, car
ries an appropriation from the state
treasury Of $97 200 annually, or a total
of $I94 400 for the bienium. To this
there was added $4,000 for the Mid
land trail and $4,000 for the Pioneer
trail.
The general road bill, which has
been signed by the governor, makes
provision for adding to the fund ear"
ried by it by special county taxes on
graduated scale. The provision is
that the state road commission, which
has the administration Of the law. may
require counties of an assessed yalua-
tion under $2,000.000 to duplicate one
fourth Of the amount OF the state fund
available for that county; more than
$2,000,000 and less than $4,000,000 to
duplicate one.half: more than $4,000
900 to duplicate the full amount. In
case the county commissioners fail to
make these Implications. their county
is not to share in any benefits by rea-
son Of state road building in their
counties.
Exception to participation in the

Grand county is eliminated from this
exception. The counties, therefore,
which do not participate in the gen
eral fund are Emery, Carbon and Box
Elder. BY another exception IN the
Midland Trail Appropriation bill, Utah,
Salt Lake. Davis and Weber arc elimi-
mated from sharing iu the Midland
Trail. While the Midland Trail passes
through those counties the roads are
already in good condition, and thcre-
fore the counties preferred to share in
the general fund rather than in the
Midland Trail
The Midland Trail bill provides that
Box Elder shall have $4,000 Of the
$4,000 appropriation, and the people
of that county have already set apart
like amount, making total OF $780,
900 already raised in Box Elder to COM
plete that county's end of the big
highway Tt is the promise that an
other $4,000 will be forthcoming in
to be available for Carbon and Grand.
1t is the intention to e1peud $4,000 Of
this amount in Carbon county. A road
in Carbon is a dire necessity, Under
present conditions the people of Price
and other Carbon county towns are
boxed in They are obliged to make a
detour Of approximately 100 miles if
they wish to get out by wagon or au-
tomobile, leaving them as the only
meaus of egress the railroad. There
is a little stretch Of the road proposed
to relieve the Carbon situation in Utah
county, but the Utah county people
will build that portion out Of their
own county's funds.

MEASURE VITAL

No bill passed by the legislature IS.
of more vital interest to Salt Lake
than is senate bill 90, the so-callcd
intersections bill.'' The measure
awaits the governors signature.
The act relieves cities Of The cost Of
paving intersections and applies also
in the case of sewers and sidewalks
The bill provides that the cost of paw
ing intersections shall be divided into
eight equal parts and shall be assessed
pro rata against the property extend
ing on either side of the four streets
forming the intersection for the dis
tance of half block. For example,
if it were decided TO pave an intersec
tion in that part Of the city where
600-foot blocks are the rule. the assess
ment would be laid against 800 feet
of the property on either side Of the
streets running 10 the intersection,
making eight half-blocks. Ten
years are given IN which the intersec-
tiou paving tax may be paid.
The improvement district is to be
created upon petition as specified in
the present law, but the new act pro
vdes chat 81 per cent of the property
frontage may defeat the Improvement
by protest. Under the present law a
successful protest requires two-thirds
Of the property frontage.
For the purpose OF illustrations: An
intersection whose paving would cost
$4,000 would be divided into eight parts
of 500 feet of property each. This
gives cost Of $l.66 2-3 per front foot,
4 person owning 50-foot lot, there
fore, would be called upon to pay
| SS3. .33 IS. Having ten years in which
to pay the amount, the yearly amount
required of him would be 1888 1-3.
| II was said on the floor of the house
when the bill was up for discussion
that the city is now paving at the
rate Of four miles the year, At that
pace. it would take eighty years TO
pave the city. it was declared, The
reason why greater progress was not
made. IL was asserted, was because the
city did not have the money with
which to pave the intersections. Under
the new act the people themselves may
proceed with paving improvements
without regard 10 whether the city has
money or not.
1t is the opinion of city officials
that. beginning with the year 1914, OF
as soon as the paving already ordered
! is down, there will be flood of petl.
tions for paving, and that there will

much in favor Of it,
