Although Pennsylvania railroad off

announcement. it was said by .oca
grain dealers that the embargoes wer
necessitated by the scarcity of ship
to carry the products across the AT

declare, have shipped quantities o.
goods for export without first engag

ESTABLISH THE MILK FLOW
Best Time Is When Cow Is Fresh and
Should Take From Three to Four
Weeks-Feed Literally.

The time to establish the milk flow
OF the cow is when she is fresh. II
should take three to four weeks to
bring her to full flow of milk and to
eating full ration. There is no other
time in the period of lactation when
care and judicious feeding have more
important bearing upon her years rec.
ord.
The dairy COW should be fed liber.
ally, but care should be taken not to
overfeed her and carry her beyond her
capacity. This works injury not
only to her milk function, but to her
breeding powers.
