RAISING CALVES
SUCCESSFULLY
BY GEO. c. HUMPHREY,


The method employed in raising
dairy cows at the university during
the past four years has been satisfac
tory 1t may not coincide with the
equally successful methods employed
with other dairymen, but it is one
which can be recommended.
1t is aimed to give the COWS of the
herd the best care as regards feed,
shelter and handling. Six weeks prior
to calving cows are carefully dried off
i'm order to give them a rest from pro-
ducing milk, which is to be recon-
mended in all cases During this time
the grain ration is continued by feed
ing two to four pounds of oats and
bran, or two pounds of bran and one
pound Of oil meal, the amount depend
ing upon the condition of the COW. 1t
has been observed that this practice
gives strength and vigor to the COW
and to the calf she produces. The first
two to four days the calf is allowed
to run with the COW, after which 1t
receives three to five pounds of its
own mothers milk three times per
day until four weeks old. In some
jnstances, If the young calf is small
and inclined to be weak, smaller
amount at a feed four times per day
lis fed After the calf is ten days or
two weeks old 1t usually noses about
and will pick up hay or grain. 1t
will sometimes pick up coarse butts of
fodder or silage corn cobs and swallow
them. which is very sure to bring on
case of indigestion and sometimes seri-
GUS difficulty.
During the fifth week the milk is
gradually changed to skim milk. The
amount is not increased until about
the eighth week, when the calf can be
fed eight pounds twice per day. A
small amount of grain and dried clo-
yer or alfalfa is placed before the calf
after it is ten days to two weeks old,
the grain is fed Immediately after the
calf has taken the milk The feeding
pals, stable and calves are kept as
clean as possible and plenty of pure
air is provided. The calves are kept
on a cement floor over which are laid
boards to keep calves off cold cement
The stable should be kept warm.
A small amount of corn silage is fed
after the calf is month or six weeks
old During the first summer the
calves are fed regularly in the barn
and turned out for exercise in shady
paddocks or during nights only.
Up to "a or 30 months of age, the
time the heifer drops her first calf,
she does not receive more than three
mounds Of grain nor dav From tho
time she commences to eat grain, as

Gcvernor.elect Stuart or Virginia,
who was at the Raleigh, has travelled
In every nook and corner of the Old
Dominion, and he knows thousands OF
voters well enough to call them by
their first names, says the Washing
ton Post. The governor was down III
one Of the southern counties not long
ago. He has a lot of friends in that
section. and one Of his particular hob
bies is the promotion of the social
welfare of the negroes. A prosperous
looking darkey ventured to shake
hands with the gOvernOr-elect, where
upon Governor Stuart remarked:
John, hope you are we'll and that
the members of your family are all
we'll"
"Everybody's well" returned the
darkey, only All hasn't got no fam
bly,"
why, aren't you married?" inquired
Governor-elect Stuart.
mo, All isn't married., replied John.
well, you ought to get married,

ought to be married. 1t IS best for

III the Wisconsin farmer receives
what he should for his milk and milk
products. it will be because he keeps
his herd in a clean, well lighted and
weIl-yentilated barn, handles his milk
or cream in such a manner as to keep
1t clean and pure, and then Insists
upon getting for his products what
they are worth.
The future Of the dairy industry of
Wisconsin, in fact, will. in a very large
measure depend upon the quality of
the milk or cream sold and the butter
or cheese manufactured in the cream
cries and factories of the state. And
as the quality Of the butter and cheese
made in Wisconsin is largely governed
by the care, given to the milk and
cream by the patrons of the cream
cries and factories, cooperation be-
tween the farmer and the butter
maker and cheese maker will help
TO overcome many of the common
TROUBLES incident to the manufacture
of these dairy products. AS the max
ing OF butter or cheese Of higher quail
ity means greater demand at a
higher price, every dairyman contrib
uting milk to a creamery is at Least
financially affected.
One Of the states leading authorities
on dairying gives the following as
factors in the production of milk and
cream which should and eventually
will command better prices upon the
market:
/. The cows must be in good health
The barn must be properly ventilated
and provided with a floor so construct

SOILS ADAPTED TO
GROWING OF WHEAT

tBy M +. MILLER. Professor Of N.ron-
omy. University of Missouri)
An ideal wheat soil is one with good
drainage, with a medium to fine tex
ture. and one Of good fertility Lack
OF drainage is one of the greatest OBJ
stacles to winter wheat growing. 1t is
on poorly drained lands that the alter
cate freezing and thawing of late win
ter has its greatest effect in causing
'heaving.
The direct freezing out of wheat in
winters of light snowfall is also worse
on vet lands Good wheat can some
times be grown on land that is in
clined to be wet, but it is never sure.
This is particularly true on the tight
soils of the more level prairies and
heavy clay loan bottom lands.
The time of year when wheat is
seeded naturally affords the freezing
out. While it is usually the late-sown
wheat that is most affected. sometimes
the condition is reversed The nan
