EXCELLENT FEED FOR COWS
Roots Are Especially Effective With
Animals That Freshened In Spring
increases Milk Flow.

Roots are excellent feed for dairy
COWS and are especially desirable for
the fall and early winter. as they are
palatable, easy to digest, and stimu-
late the flow OF milk. They are espe-
ciauy effective with cows that fresh
ened in the spring. and whose flow Of
milk has been depressed during the
summer because of annoyance by flies
and mosquitoes and ~unfavorable pas
ture conditions. II such are given a
liberal supply Of roots when brought
to stall feeding. the flow Of milk is
often materially increased. Less grain
is required while roots are being fed.
The change from roots to more grain
should be made gradually, adding
grain at the rate Of one pound for ten
pounds Of roots withdrawn.

The course of the mar ket during the last two days indicated that professional traders were in- clined to take position on the short duce liquidation. Holders of real stock were not of the mind to sell, in view of the benefits which the market is expected to derive from banner crops and higher freight rates.
