ems to eight weeks Of age and using
seven different rations they found that
the flock that received cracked corn,
skimmilk mash and beef scrap showed
the lowest mortality. The skimmilk
mash also produced flesh on less food
per pound gain in weight than did the
dry mash that was tried.
At the Connecticut experiment sta.
ton test was made with six pens.
three Of which received milk to drink
and three OF which did not receive it.
In the pens Of those that received milk
the grass remained as green as that on
lawn, whereas in the pens Of the
fowls that did not receive milk the
ground was almost bare. 1t is evident
that milk supplies something that 10

Either skimmilk or buttermilk is good
for layers and will increase egg pro-
duction. The nutritive ratio of either
one is very narrow and it is good in
balancing ration that the mixed
grains render too wide.
Not only is milk a superior food for
growing chickens. but it also has equal
merits as fattening food. Milk fed
chicks always command a top price.
There are many different methods Of
fattening. but the best system involves
the use Of ground grains. which are
easily digested. These are usually
mixed with some liquid. buttermilk

parts Of buttermilk to one Of grain is
about the right proportion. Feed the
mash at intervals of twelve hours, Civ.

to get hungry the chickens gorge them
selves at each feeding. The fattening
period should not extend over two
weeks.

Poultry greatly relish either skim

danger Of overlooking either, writes w.

use it to make wet mash. In addi-

The Cost of Silaue.

A field of corn that will yield from
fifty to sixty bushels to the acre will
make anywhere from eight to ten tons
Of silage per acre as it comes from the
silO. silo sixteen feet in diameter
and thirty-two feet high will hold
about 1870 tons of silage. This would
take about fifteen acres Of corn to fill
Can you imagine any other way Of get
ting 100 tons Of green. succulent feed
at such a small outlay Of expense? OF
course there is the expense Of putting
up the silo. which must be taken into
consideration. but many of our practi
raj and experienced feeders figure that
che saving by virtue of the silo is about
$3.50 per ton. or. in other words. prac-
tically enough to pay in single season
the cost of constructing the silo in
many instances. -IIoard's Dairyman.

accordingly and often feed more eco
nomically. Again. daily milk record
enables dairyman to detect the ap-
proach of sickness in cow and thus to
take steps to ward 1t of.
The record Of the herd is a matter
Of the utmost Importance. The high
est degree Of success cannot be at.
tanned unless dairymen know the pro-
ducttve capacity of each individual
COW. This is necessary as a guide to
rational treatment and to insure the
greatest profit. The record should
include not only the dairy performance.
but a concise history and description
of each animal. The former requires
daily record of the milk yield Of
every COW and fat test Of several con-
secutive milkings. II accurate records
are to be secured. Samples for this
test may be mixed and this composite
sample tested. thus obtaining the
average. The method is easily learned
and practiced. With the percentage
Of fat taken periodically and sum-
mary Of the daily Yield Of milk. the
dairyman has full record of produc-
ton for every COW in his herd. To give
still more complete knowledge there
should also be II record. at least ap.
prOximately accurate. showing the cost
Of the feed consumed by each cow. so
that the economy Of production may be
shown.
The scales and the Babcock test are
occnnfiul
dairyman, One dairyman's cows may
produce twice the yield and return
double the profit Of those Of another
with the same market. simply because
he used greater intelligence in his bust
ness.
Accurate and continuous records are
necessary for best results. Examples
show the impracticability Of trying to
determine the profitable cows by mere
glipsswork. One dairyman found the
COW he had picked out for best to be
fifth on his merit list when actual rec.
OiSls were taken.
The time and expense required in
keeping records are small compared
with their value. In some instances
one minute to COW ut each milking, or
two minutes a day. has been found suf
ficient to record the weight Of the milk
and take the sample. ON this basis
when milk is weighed and tested every
seventh week. as is customary with
some dairymen. only one hour and
thirty eight minutes would be required
yearly for each cow tested. With this
amount of time expended reasonably
accurate record can be secured Of every
cow In the herd.

Prepared by dairy division, United States
department Of agricultural
The condition Of the farming indus
try as seen on the average farm points
to the need of better business methods
and more definite knowledge of the
sources Of profit and loss. In no de.
partment connected with the farm is
there more need for absolute data than
In the dairy. The records Of both pro.
gressive and unprogressive dairymen
Indicate that there Is no business which
shows greater range of profit than
that of dairy farming.
Records Of the performances Of dairy
cows form the only accurate and safe
basis for Judging their value. 1t is the
constant aim Of progressive dairymen
to improve their herds. and such i'm.
provement must depend largely upon
culling the herd and getting rid of the
unprOtiitable animals.
