CORRECT TIME FOR FEEDING
Better Results Secured by Giving Full
Feeds In Morning and Might
Mix Salt With Grain.

Many feeders seem to think that
the oftener they can coax the COWS
to eat the better, but l believe that
better results may be obtained by
feeding full feeds in the morning and
at night and light feed of hay about
noon, says a writer in an exchange.
We feed silage, grain and hay in the
morning, as soon as the milking is
completed, light feed of hay at noon
to induce the COWS to walk directly to
their places when they come in from
the yard, and repeat the morning feed
at night, Immediately after milking.
We have found 1t better not to feed
the COWS before milking time, and
more especially when silage is being
fed, as it is likely to impart a bad
odor to the milk.
The amount of salt to feed depends
upon conditions. We feed more salt
than many dairymen, for the reason
that when feeding corn silage we have
difficulty in getting the COWS to drink
sufficient water, unless they have
plenty of salt.
II may U0 Ou6 Oh Tue WTlJ6T uO-
tions, but there seems to be some
thing about the slightly acid condition
of the silage that satisfies the cows
thirst, and for that reason we mix salt
with the grain feed. One ounce a day
is fed to each COW in her grain ration,
and once a week we give them some
in their managers.
We have water basins by the side
of the cows, but the animals are
turned out every day in the year
while the stables are being cleaned
and aired out. Our yards are well
sheltered, and we seldom leave them
out more than three-quarters of an
hour. They are turned out in groups
of ten or twelve and made to stay
out until we are ready for them to
come to their places. On very cold
days they are not kept out long
enough to get chilled.

THE DOCTORS WIFE

A trained nurse says: "In the prac-

palate ian essential in food for the
sick) and can be adapted to all ages,
being softened with milk or cream for
babies or the aged when deficiency of
teeth renders mastication impossible.
For fever patients or those on liquid
diet l find Grape-Nuts and albumen
water very nourishing and refreshing,
This recipe is my own idea and is
made as follows: Soak a teaspoonful
of Grape-Nuts in glass of water for
an hour, strain and serve with the
beaten white of an egg and a spoonful
of fruit juice for fiavouring. This af
fords a great deal of nourishment that
even the weakest stomach can assimi
late without any distress.
my husband is a physician and he
uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders ii
many times for his patients.
Personally regard a dish Of Grape
Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the
ideal breakfast for anyone-well OF
sick"
In stomach trouble, nervous prostra
ton, etc., a Today trial of Grape-Nuts
will usually work wonders toward
hourishing and rebuilding and in this
way end the trouble. Name given by

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up Mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get a large bottle of the famous
old recipe for about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time, by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy

there is a deadly set toward chocolates
of all kinds. Time was when the
chocolate cream was every girls ideal

The loafers, the cows that consume
more than they return, are quickly
spotted and eliminated when the COW
test is used. No successful merchant
handles a line Of goods on which he
loses money; likewise, no progressive
dairyman will milk a COW on which he
does not make a profit. The milking
Of COWS is a straight business PROPOSE
tion and no farmer can afford to spend
his own time or pay high priced labor
to milk COWS which do not pay for
their board. Let's make the $1OO re-
turn per COW our standard.
To build up profitable herd the
COW test is indispensable. 1t enables
the dairyman to quickly get a high
producing herd by selecting heifers
from only the best cows. In this con-
nection the sires that are capable of
transmitting dairy quality and tenn
perament to their offspring can be
proved. The very general practice of
sending mature bulls to the block,
when they are just in their prime for
breeding purposes, is detrimental to
our dairy industry and should be
stopped.
Cow testing also pays because sur
