KEEP SALT HANDY FOR cows
Maintains Health of Animals and En-.
courages Heavy Milk Flow by
Promoting Digestion.

Experiments have proved the aver
age milk COW requires abodt an ounce
of salt per day. Heavy mixers should
have more. Keeping salt where the
dairy COWS can reach it at all times
maintains their good health and en-
courages a heavy milk yield by pro-
noting thorough digestion and assim-
ilation and having a cooling effect
on the whole system of the animals, at
the same time making 1t easier to
bring butter of superior flavor and
color at churning time.

SOME GRAIN is NECESSARY
Cow VIII Get Through Winter In Ex'
ceilent Condition II Given Few
Ears Of Corn Each Day.

The cow that is to become a moth
er should not be allowed to get poor
and weak during the winter months.
1t is practically impossible to get such
a COW through the rigors OF winter
in good condition without grain feed.
She may not need great amount OF
grain, II she has plenty of forage that
Is nutritious. but she win need fonr
or 1--we ears Of corn two or three times
4 day. Then she win get through the
winter In line shape and have good
flesh and plenty OF strength at caly-
ing time.

cient working is generally shown by
a notified appearance in color on the
cut surface. This is largely due to an
uneven distribution of salt. This re
suits in a salty condition and Injuries
the keeping quality. The aim OF
butter makers should be to produce a
high-grade article that is uniform
week after week in flavor and compo
sition. This can be done by careful
methods in ripening, sailing and work
ing.
