oil meal was the best, but since corn
Is high in starchy foods, and fats,
it fills the requirements just as well,
and Is cheaper. Oats are also good.
An equal mixture Of cornmeal and
whole or crushed oats can hardly be
improved upon for supplementing
skimmilk. CornmeaI alone is as good
as any for the young calf, but after
two or three months 1t can eat shelled
corn just as well.
Calves will begin to nibble hay al
most as soon as they will eat grain.
for young calves timothy or mixed
hay Is we'll adapted as clovers and
alfalfa are laxative, and so palatable
the animal often overeats and this
helps to produce scours. After three
or four months they should by all
means be fed some of the legume hays
(alfalfa, clover or cowpea) on account
of the bone and growth producing ele-
ments this class contains. An abun-
dance of clean water should be given
at all times and salt after the animal
is old enough to eat grain and hay.

ashes and land plaster. One quart of
plaster mixed with one peck of ashes
will make good mixture. If ground
should be dry, water it. Apply the
water late in the evening. II ashes

scrapings of the barnyard win answer.
The manure will not only fertilize the

ONE TREATMENT FOR HEAVES
Disease 10 lncurabIe, but May Be
?aIIiated by Feeding Easily d.
Qested Nutritive Food.

(By DIR. ]. r. sTANDIsH. Nova Scotia
Department of Agriculture.)
Repeated gorging of the stomach
with food or water, and often both,
is the cause of heaves The symp-
toms are deep breathing, evidenced
by the expanding nostrils and double
lifting of the TANKS, both of which
are increased If the animal is forced
up grade at fast trot or gallop
when the stomach is distended with
food or water; generally, also, a hack
ing cough, mostly in the morning.
The disease is incurable, but may
be palliated by feeding easily digested
nutritive food in small quantities. Give
such food as carly cut, well cured
clean timothy hay. preferably damp
ened with weak lime water oats
wheat bran, fax seed ground, and in
winter roots, carrots, turnips, mangels
or sugar beets; the oats to be boiled
twice a week. Give four drains of
ginger and two drains of baking soda
in the food at night. or oil of tar in
dessert spoonful doses. In some
cases, better results are secured by
alternating these daily or weekly, and
in some cases are benefited by four to
ten grain doses of white arsenic once
a day. But care in feeding and water
Ing is necessary in any treatment. Dat
straw, if early cut and well cured, is
often preferable to hay. In either
case. shake the hay or straw to re-
move all dust.

WINTER CARE FOR THE CALF
ekImmIlk They Should BE Taught
to Eat Grain Early.

(By c. Fl. ECKLEs. Dairyman. Missouri
Agricultural Coliege)
The calf which IL to be raised on
skimmilk should be taught to eat
grain early. When they have access
20 1t, many begin eating grain at two
weeks of age. The grain should be
placed In box where they can easily
get to 1t and they can be encouraged
at first by placing a little in their
mouth after they have consumed their
milk. Grain can best be fed dry after
the milk is fed. In no case should 1t
be fed In the milk as in that case it
will be gulped down without chewing,
which Is bad for the digestion. No
more grain should be given than will
be eaten up twice each day, which
Will not be more than one-half pound
daily for the first two months. After
this they may have more, but 1t will
not be necessary to feed more than
one pound per day up to six months
unless 1t is desired to push them rap
idly. II grain Is allowed to remain
In the trough, 1t often becomes damp
and decayed, and may cause sickness,
Just as dirty pals may do.
In feeding grain one must keep in
mind that the object Is to supply fat
which is deficient In the skimmilk.

the way from Omaha to it's western

To reduce to a minimum the haz-
