DAIRY
FACTS
FOOD THE DAIRY cows LIKE
Necessary All Substances Entering In.
to Composition Of Milk Be In
Proper Proportions.
Copyright. 1914.)
(By JAMES y. MORMON,)

tBy JAMES ~. MOkMON.D
A dairy COW giving large quantities
of milk consumes much feed. Milk is
formed from feeding stuffs digested
and assimilated by cows, 30 1t is nee.
essary all substances entering into the
composition of milk be supplied to
dairy stock in proper proportion to get
good results. For production Of milk
there are required water. carbohy-
drates. protein, fat and mineral ash.
High quality milk contains about 81
per cent water. 5 per cent. sugar, 4
Of fat, 2.5 of casein, 0.S of albumen
and OF of ash.
Feeding stuffs contain necessary ele-
ments in varying amounts. Water. for
instance, Is contained In all feeds, but
not enough to produce milk, 30 cows
should be given plenty Of fresh, pure
water. Carbohydrates are Of two
kinds-those without nitrogen, such as
starch, sugar, etc.. and fiber or cellu-
lose, which forms the greater part of
plant cells, which are converted by
cows into fat. Since carbohydrates
form the largest part of feeds they are
made the basis of calculating rations
Protein Is the flesh producing sub
stance, containing nitrogen derived
from plants, an important part OF milk,
and nothing can replace it. Fat fed to
dairy COWS In feeds Is stored in the
body and changed into milk fat The
ash Is what is left of feeding stuffs
after being burned and goes to form
bone and digestive juices.
Now balanced ration is one in
which the proportion Of protein, car
bohydrates and fat Is such as to give
the best results In the quantity and
quality of milk produced, which varies
with different cows In different eli
mates. For cow giving 26 pounds
of milk day the German standard
fixes a ratio of one protein to 40 Of
carbohydrates and fat; the Wisconsin
and other standards ratio Of one to
six. The latter IL regarded as cor
rect.
A COW weighing from $50 to 1000
pounds receives a daily balanced IA
ton as follows: Roughage. So pounds
Of corn silage and IL pounds of mixed
hay. Concentrates, two pounds Of
gluten meal. two pounds Of wheat
bran and one pound of cottonseed
meal, oilmeal. ground oats and wheat
middlings. II the COW gives less than
twenty-five pounds of milk daily de-
duct one pound Of concentrates for
every three pounds less Of milk. On
the other hand. for every three pounds
of milk above 25 pounds day, give
an additional pound Of concentrates.
Cows fed entirely on hay for rough
age should be given about 20 pounds
day and about two pounds Of oil
meal instead of one pound.

Good Quality of Butter.

In the making of good quality OF
butter the temperature of the cream
when 1t goes into the churn Is an i'm
portant factor. A good thermometer
is the only safe guide. II too cold. as
1t often is in winter, one of the best
plans of warming up is to put the
cream into vessel and set In larger
vessel and pour hot water into the
larger vessel and let stand, stirring
the cream frequently 30 that the mass
will warm up evenly until the desired
temperature IL secured. Better have
q little warm than too cold, as usu-
ally the temperature will drop one or
two degrees after churning com
mences.

RECEIVER OF The DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

Mr.. Walker W. Wick of New Jersey,
general receiver of the Dominican Gus
toms for Uncle Sam, has just rem
dered the sixth annual report of the
receivership. A summary Of the re-
port shows that big business at the
Dominican capital showed some trepi-
dalton when President Wilson brought
about change of administration of
custom affairs in Santo Domingo.
They feared the new broom might
sweep too clean.
AS the new receivership administra-
ton gradually unfolded its purpose,
however, there was natural sub
sidence Of concern within business cir
cles, and now the conclusion is in all
realms Of Dominican financial and
commercial circles, that the right
kind of sweeping has a salutary effect
on the financial, as 1t does on the do
mestic household, and that cobwebs
OF debatable presidents are not al
ways conducive to forceful achieve
ment. When what is known as the

pulling it along to where 1t is dumped
the trip rope is drawn through the

hooks the singletree to the trip rope

files the following objections, to-wit:
1. The general taxes are high and
burd snsome; the pavement of one
block is an impractical expenditure,
of no general benefit to the city or
the business or occupants, because of
the non-improvement of the street
south of Exchange strset and will be
covered with mud from the un-improv-
ed portion OF the street.
2. The portion OF the street pro-
posed to be improved is the best por-
ton thereof and b heretofore the only
portion improved by macadam; is in
good repair and condition, with hard
even surface, save where occupied by
the railroad track.
3. The pavement will not increase,
Or improve or ben eft the limited use

A. The pavement Is unnecessary
for traffic, public or private, south Of

5. The property south Of the rail-

the present condition OF the street is
sufficient for all trafhc incident to-
