DEVELOPING THE DAIRY CALF
Keep the Helfer Growing, Feed E1er
Literally, But Do Not Fc.Sen Her
What Feed to Give.

(By E. X. PARKINSON, Copyright, 1914)
The development of a dairy calf
should begin in the sire and dam back
several generations. To illustrate, II
there is land enough to keep a COW
and money being distinctly an object
1t is decided to buy a heifer calf and
raise It. With this end in view the
milkman or butcher is interviewed,
and, being an obliging chap, he finds a
pretty little bossy, drops $40 into his
pocket and the prospective mixer is
installed. For two years the beast Is
fed, petted and watched over, and at
last the eventful day arrives when,
with new milk pail in hand, the fam
lily gather in the barn to watch the
milking-the result, about eight quarts
daily. At first that sounds very well,
but wait a moment. The Massachu-
sets Agricultural college has found the
keep Of a COW feed, insurance, taxes,
year. so let us do some figuring: Eight
quarts for 300 days (the COW being
dry two months yearly gives 2,400
quarts, which IL sold at six cents per
quart would return $144, loss Of $2.04
not quite what we had reckoned on,
is it?
Therefore a future dairy COW should
come from a line OF good milkers-at
least, on the sire's side-and will cost
as a calf about $25, but the money is
well expended, and, the calf once
purchased, the importance Of spending
thought as we'll as feed in its develop
ment should not be forgotten, espe-
cially during the first six months.
Feed new milk the first two or three
weeks, four to six quarts daily d.
vided into three feeds, then gradually
substitute skim milk and continue so
to feed until six months old. Skim
milk and we'll cured hay, alfalfa or
clover, fed three times daily, should
make the bulky part of the ration.
Silage may take the place Of one feed
may be fed twice daily after six
months. In addition to bulky feed,
the calf requires grain to furnish nu
triment and stimulate growth. Feed
little at first, about a half pound
day in clean wooden box, and gradu-
ally increase until two pounds are
given. A good mixture consists of
cornmeal, ground oats and wheat bran
in equal parts and half part of lin
seed meal. Feed the spring calf in
the barn the first summer, and when
year old turn her into good pas
ture, when no other food will be re-
quired. Fall calves should not be
obliged to depend entirely on pasture
until eighteen months old. Keep the
heifer growing feed her well. but do
not fatten her.

A GOOD SUGGESTION

"They Danish our anger for
ever when they laurel the graves
of our dead" wrote the author
of "The Blue and the Gray" and,
with this sentiment uppermost
in his heart, President Wilson
has expressed the wish that the
Mason and Dixon line be forever
forgotten. AS a means to an
end, he suggests to the Lincoln
Highway Association that the
road run from Philadelphia to
Gettysburg through Washing
ton, thus linking, not only in a
sentimental but a practical way,
the North and the South.
II am sure the entire country
is interested to see to II that
there should no longer exist a
North or a South in this abso-
lutely united country" said the
President in a communication to
the head of the Lincoln High
way Association, adding: "The
imaginary Mason and Dixon line
should be made once ana tor all
a thing of the past"
1t is time that this sentiment
found an echo in the heart of ev-
cry citizen of the Republic. The
flag that once foated over Get
tysburg, Antietam, Bull Run and
other fields of strife have long
been furled. Time has effaced
the stains of battle. The COM
batants, though still bearing the
scars of civil conflict, are broth
ers of the commonwealth and
one in the greater battle for a
greater nation"

Improvement Suggested.

F. w. Feldman, in the Nebraska
Farmer, suggests the following device
to keep cows from sucking them
selves:
Mr. Feldman says he has used this
method on a COW, and it always has
given satisfaction. The reason he puts
the chain at the end of the wood pole
is to give the COW a better chance to
eat. The length of the pole and chain
must be made to suit the size of the
COW.

FRIENDS THAT

FRIENDS THAT
LOVE ALWAYS
The friends that love us always,
In the good times and the bad
The frien DIS that love us always
Are the friends that keep US
glad.
The friends that cling in tempest
AS they do in Gains are those
That have made the paths of

Seem the paths of song and

The friends that love us always
When we go their way or not,
Are the friends that hearts re-
member
When the others are forgot.
The friends that stick the closest
When the trouble grows the

The friends that love us always
Just the way they did at first.
They are the browning jewels
Of the coronets we weave

And we lisp their names forever;
And we see their faces clear
