properly adjusting the ration OF
home-g grown foods SO as to purchase
only a limited amount of high protein
food.
Silage is particularly valuable in
feeding growing young stock. 1t
may be safely used almost as soon as
the young calf will take it, and serves
not only as valuable food in itself,
but serves to accustom the young
animal to make good use of rough
age. Silage may be fed to service
bulls but rather sparingly, since it is
likely to make them paunchy and
slow in service.
Much has been said and written
that milk from silage fed COWS is bad
for babies and bad for condensing
purposes. The largest producers of
certified and modified milk for babies
in the United States use milk of
silage fed COWS continuously, and too
many perfectly normal babies are be-
ing raised on such milk to have the
contention hold longer. Many of the
large condenseries are accepting milk
from silage fed cows with no trouble.
1t is always best to feed silage to
COWS directly after milking and to re-
move all silage from the stable as
soon as possible SO that the milk may
have no opportunity to absorb the
odor and flavor from the air

A VALUABLE cow.

We hear of big records for dairy
COWS all the time but we seldom know
personally of these records. How
ever, Kent citizen has a COW which
deserves the attention of dalrymen
everywhere. Mr.. j. HI. Snyder, who
lives on the Horseshoe tracts has a
Jersey COW which produced by actual
weight 9531 pounds of milk from
February 6, 1913 to February 6, 1914.
Mrs. Snyder made butter during the
year and sold 1921 worth from this
COW. Mr.. Snyder kept actual &C.

pasture, the cost for the year amount
ed to 1872. 80 This is no high grade,
pedigreed animal either. He bought
her three years ago from hill farmer
for $50. She is at present nine years
old, which makes her feat more re-
markable. No small part of this
great record is due to the careful care
given her. Mr.. Snyder has also
raised from this COW two heifers
which he considers will be very valu-
able. Kent Journal.

The Usefulness of SiIage for Cattle

matter, in an average of IA trials at
Wisconsin, Vermont and Penn
sylvania, silage yielded 10 pounds
of milk compared with 1853 pounds
of milk from corn fodder. This
would be about per cent more milk
from the dry matter in silage COM
pared with the dry matter in the
corn fodder. The above figures are
taken from Henry's "Feeds and Feed
ing.''
Professor Henry gives even more
impressive data on this point from
further trials at the Vermont station.
From a field of silage corn, two rows
were put into the silo, and the next
two rows field cured. This was con-
tinued across the field. The field
cured fodder after being run through
the cutter was fed in opposition to
the silage to dairy COWS along with
equal quantities Of hay and grain.
There we're produced from a. 858
pounds of green fodder fed as cured
fodder corn, 1858 pounds of milk
The same amount of green fodder fed
as silage with equal amounts of hay
and grain as fed with the corn fod
der produced 8, 525 pounds of milk or
II per cent more. In similar trial
in Wisconsin, the silage from a GER
tain amount of green fodder produced
per cent more milk, and per cent
more butterfat than cured fodder
from an equal amount of green corn
fodder. These trials, with many
others not here reported, all are much
in favor of silage.
RESULTS SPEAK FOR THEM
SELVES.
Silage forms very strong part Of
home grown rations. In trial at
the Cornell experiment station, ra-
ton of clover hay. silage and roots
with grain ration equal to one-half
the grain ration fed with silage and
clover hay was equally efficient as the
second ration. A friend of the writer
has been feeding alfalfa hay, silage
and rutabaga turnips to his dairy
herd for a part of each winter with
fine results. keeping the milk flow at
high rate, with no grain at all.
This is certainly economical practice
for part of the time, but it would
probably be best to feed some grain
in order to increase the fertility in
the manure. However, a great saw
ing may be made in the grain bill by

Professor of Animal Husbandry,
Cornell University.
Seven factors must be considered
in making up suitable ration for a
dairy COW: Bulk, nutritive ratio,
digestibility, palatability, suitable
ity, variety and cost.
These are all very important con-
siderations, and the feeder must
strive to meet them all before he may
expect the largest and most econom-
ical returns from his food in the form
of dairy products. Silage. particular
ly corn silage, meets these require
ments in every way, and is particu-
larly helpful in meeting some OF
them, viz: Bulk, palatability, vari-
ETY. and cost.
The digestive organs of a COW are
such that there must be considerable
bulk in the ration to properly distend
them. Silage helps in this regard.
A ration must be palatable. Silage
is of the greatest value here. Palata-
bility for dairy cattle practically
hinges on the amount Of succulent
food in the ration, that is, the near
ness of the ration to the natural con-
dition in pasture grass. There must
be several foods in the ration so that
there may be variety. Lastly. in no
food can so much nutriment be pro-
vided in such excellent shape for one
dollar.
The question always comes up in
the mind of the man without silo
as to the advantage OF silage over
corn fodder from the same area OF
land. Several careful practical ex-
periments have been carried on in
studying this point. At the Vermont
Experiment Station, experiments
we're carried on for four years, in
New Jersey one year, in Pennsylvania
one year, and in Wisconsin four
years. From the average Of these 10
trials, the percentage of dry matter
lost in curing the fodder in shocks
has been 20 per cent as against loss
of 1877 per cent in the silo. There
was an average loss of 16.2 per cent
of the protein in the fodder and H.
per cent in the silage. These trials
show conclusively that there is a
greater loss in the field-cured corn
fodder than in the silage both in the
total dry matter and protein.

The feat is unparalleled.

McKernan's invitation this morning that
she swim with him across Tappan Zee
AT Tarrytown. where the river Is the
widest, was accepted. Miss Bauer, ac-
companied by McKernan and Crawford
Brown. arrived AT the Tarrytown Yacht
Club at . 80 o'clock this afternoon. Old
seamen shook their heads and said the
girl would never make It, for she would
have rough sea and wind all the way.
Miss Bauer laughed and said she was
going to try anyway, and in tow OF n
launch she was taken 20 Nyack.
When the other side was reached NJ ISIS
Bauer took of her sweater, and wearing
black tights and n green cap to keep her
hair tight she dived overheard from the
Tappan Zee Club When McKernan and
Brown said they were ready she waved
her hand to the crowd and struck out for
Tarrytown. She used a slow double over
hand stroke. She was trailcd by James
Morgan and Kenneth Steer In a rowboat
, Just after the start heavy squat
struck the river and the waves dashed
high. hut Miss Bauer took them easily
and fought her way When mile out
McKernan was nearly exhausted and had
to be taken out. Brown stuck it out for
another half mile and then he withdrew.
Miss Bauer laughed and said in reply to
questions that she was not cold or tired.
Ferryboats came close by and gave three
whistles in salute and Miss Bauer waved
her hand.
At 8 30 a strong food tide carried Miss
Bauer up the river opposite william
Rockefeller's home. 1T seems to me as II
| am going backward" she called. The
men In the boats encouraged her, but they
could see abe was getting tired When a
mile or shore and two miles above Tarry-
town Miss Bauer asked McKernan 10 go
phone to her mother that she was sal
and she was going to finish. Then she
struck out stronger than ever and in less
than an hour she had made the last mile
OF the journey.
No one really expected Miss Bauer tn
win. The tide carried her far north and
she travelled at least six miles. The shores
were lined with people to see the effort.
