What to Feed at Calvino Time.

Brookings.-Cows that are due to
freshen this spring should be given
from six to eight weeks of rest before
calving. 1t is quite important that a
cow be given a rest at this time, espe-
cially so if she has not been we'll fed
during the winter. Some dairymen
neglect to keep their COWS in good
condition during the winter and as a
result the calves are not in the best
OF condition at birth, and the COWS do
not give as large a milk flow as they
would give had they been properly fed.
Sllage is an excellent feed to be given
a COW during the resting period. Along
with Stage should be fed some feeds
rlch in protein, such as alfalfa or clo-
yer nay, with a small amount Of grain.
ihe COW needs the protein to help
pullo up the body Of the calf, as well
as TO keep her own body in good con-
dltlon. A succulent feed like silage
will aid in keeping the COW in better
condition. Silage in itself is not a
very substantial feed. but when fed
with a little grain and alfalfa, or clo-
yer nay, makes d most excellent part
OF a ration.

Drake at the center position last season
although in school finds his studies too
heavy to allow him to turn out so that
HOman and Tallman, forwards, are all
that remains of the last years quintet.
The freshman class has produced one
find in Earl Flegel, former guard on
Jefferson high school of Portland, and
who is now holding down a like berth
with the varsity. He uses head work
in his passing and has good control of
long shoots. He is badly hampered,
however, in that this is his first season
under the intercollegiate rules and it
is rather slow work adapting an A. A
y. player to the Intercollegiate rules.
Among the other new men, Carson, a
Salem boy now enrolled in the law de-
partment is showing to good advantage.
He is playing at center and his enlong-
ated stature allows him to tip the ball
over all who have yet attempted to
compete with him at that position. He
has had considerable basketball ex-
perience, having played with the Mt.
Angel college team and with the Christ
ian brothers team of Portland.
Other men who are showing up well
are Shisler, sub of last season, Row
land, who was a member of the varsity
squad three seasons ago and Gates, a
freshmn who played during his academy
year at the university and is showing
exceptional speed this year.
