Many young babies have q high
fever with cold. Nurse says to con-
troll the fever and make the child
more comfortable alcohol sponge
baths should be given. These may be
repeated every three or four hours II
they soothe the baby.
One tablespoonful Of alcohol in a
small basin of tepid water is the cor
rect proportion. The baby's head and
his entire body should be bathed with
washcloth dipped in this solution.
Keep the child In a room full of
fresh air and sunshine, but not a draft.
The food should be at once diluted to
at least one-half it's usual strength.
In the case of an older child, only
fluids should be given; milk, broths
and thin Cruel are the best to choose
from.

Increasing Milk Flow.

Please give me information on feeding
cows TO increase their milk flow and to
improve the quality and flavor OF the
butter. feed my cows soy bean hay
with plenty of beans on and corn, also
some cornstalks. got some bran and
thought i would mix it with brewers
grain.
Easton, Md. @. NJ.
II is possible to increase the milk flow
of a COW by good feeding and care be-
fore il 10 firmly established. No system
Of feeding has yet been brought forth
that will increase the quality OF milk,
that is, in the percentage OF fat. II
would seem from practical experience
that it is possible to ascertain systems OF
| feeding to at least temporarily increase
the percentage of fat in milk, but to sus-
tain it throughout the period OF lacta-
ton we know of no particular kind OF
feeds to advocate for this purpose.
Where increased flows Of milk are de-
sirsble, il is very important that the
feeder watch his cows closely at the
time of freshening and gradually increase
their feed so long as they will respond to
the increase. When the animal has
reached her limit of production, it is
well then to drop back a little in the
amount of meal fed, as it ia not feasible
under average conditions to feed all the
grain COW will eat in order that her
maximum flow of milk may be sustaia-
ed.
Most any good farm-grown products
produce q good favored milk, There
are few feeds that affect the flavor, that
is, what We term an of flavor. The
feeding Of large amount Of rutabagas
or turnips just before milking will in
variably give the milk an Objectionable
odor. Permitting cows to Craze on rape
pasture will also cause them to produce
strong favored milk. Even clover
pasture win have its effect and SO will
grass. -, 3
We would suggest feeding each ami
NAL all the soy bean hay she will con-
sumo. II it Is of good quality, It isa
most excellent .roughsge. A mixture
consisting of 200 Tbs. ground corn, 10C
lbs. bran, and 100 lbs. brewers grains
will supplement the hay quite nicely.
Feed about 1 lb. of this mixture fol
each 1-2 to lbs. Of milk produced
