a day until the cord shrivels up, drops
off and no raw spot remains. To keep
the solution from blistering the foal's
belly smear carbolized vaseline or IN
sailed lard around the navel before
making the first application.
A good way to use the solution is to
put some of it in shallow, wide neck
ed bottle, then hold the bottle against
the foals belly with the naval stump
immersed so that it will be completely
covered by the fluid. If the naval cord
has been tied remove the strings as
soon as possible, squeeze out the blood
clot and instantly soak the navel
stump with the corrosive sublimate
solution. Use the solution twice day
until the navel is perfectly healed.
Remove sloughing portions of the cord
each morning, so far as possible, to al
low the solution to wet all raw parts
OF the cord.
A strong foal will be on its feet and
trying to nurse In less than an hour
from birth. Such a foal needs no help,
but a weak one will have to be held
up to suck until strong enough to do so
without help. Wash the udder of the
mare with a lukewarm per cent So

rinse off with warm water before the
foaI is allowed to suck for the first

At birth the intestine of the foal con-
tains a sticky mass Of fecal matter.

usually this is accomplished by the

Young Steers Need to Be Carefully
Handled In the Spring.
1t is an important matter in feeding
young growing steers that they be
given an increasing ration to keep up
to their rapid development, writes H.
]. Hess in the Iowa Homestead. The
grass is now making its appearance
In an adjoining pasture, and we will
open the pasture gate and let them
have nip of grass. Do not wait until
the grass has grown up large, so that
they can go out and take on a big fill
of grass in a short time. Rather let
them have the pasture shortly after
the appearance of grass, and let them
come with the grass. Now, here is
where corn and cobmeal come In so
nicely to help absorb the succulent.
juicy grasses. The oats can be omit
ted; the oilmeal can be dropped out
of the ration. But keep the hay still
in the feed racks so they can get it at
will. Perhaps the ensilage supply Is
used up, and it can be discouraged as
the grass begins to grow.
Through May and June we will
make beef rapidly. have made
steers gain three and one-half pounds
per day for these months with nothing
but corn, grass and clover hay. With
the approaching days Of summer we
will need to protect these steers from
the ravages Of the flies and the In
creasing heat Of the day. We will
slide all the windows of the shed or
barn wide open and tear open some
burlap sacks that contained the oil
meal and tack them over all the open
ings. Make blanket of the same ma
terial and hang it in the doorway, SO
that when the cattle enter the blanket
will act as a brush on their backs and
whip the flies back. You will find they
will spend much Of their time through

the warm summer months in this well
ventilated shed, and you will be well
repaid for your trouble.
AS autumn approaches you will have
new corn fresh from the field to grad
ually take the place of the old. Begin
feeding a little new corn by cutting
stalk and all while it is yet quite
green, and feed it in the pasture in ad-
dition to the old corn, and finally as
the new corn ripens gradually change
them over to new corn altogether.
Now, to give a nice finish we will
add about two pounds of cOttOnseed or
oil meal per head daily. AS Christ
mas time approaches we will have fin
ished our work with this lot of cattle.
Christmas time is the time of the year
that the whole world is looking for a
good roast of beef or a choice steak,
and we will consign these prime bull
locks to market to prepare and dis
tribute to the everincreasing holiday
trade for choice beef.

cd is very much like a leap in the
dark. OF course a bull will influence
this feature greatly, but as this func
ton is not after his type the dam must
be the greater factor to reproduce this
development, and to her and her an.
cestry she owes SO much that pedigree
has large preparatory influence upon
the unborn heifer.
There is so much real satisfaction in
the milking and handling of cows that
have good udders and good teats that
it seems very strange that dairymen
have so neglected this important fea
ture of their herds, and by their seem,
ing neglect far too many cows have
small udders and consequently small,
short teats. 1t will nearly always be
noticed that cows with small udders,
even in the best dairy breeds, usually
carry too much flesh and lack that
double wedge shape which is so de-
sirable in the eyes Of a modern dairy
man. This is. Of course, only one OF
the many points relating to the mating
and breeding of good milk producers.

TREATMENT OF THE
FOAL AT TIME OF BIRTH

[By DR.. A. s. Alexander of the Wisconsin
experiment station.l
Attend to the navel cord as soon as
the nose of the foal has been cleared of
afterbirth. If possible avoid tying the
navel cord. 1t is best for it to break
of naturally. If it fails to break and
the mare is lying down make her get
up, and the cord may then break.
If found necessary to tie the cord
use clean. disinfected string. A
dirty string may cause infection. Soak
the string in per cent solution of
lysol or carbolic acid or 1900 solu-
ton of corrosive sublimate (bichloride
Of mercury. Tie the cord one inch or
little more from the belly; then
sever the cord with clean knife.

ent of the New England Homestead
Calves from these cows are the ones
retain. The others are vealed. be-
lieve In pasture for young calves, but
for very young calves something be-
sides grass or clover is required.
I have used various grains, but now
use exclusively a grain mixture that
has proved very satisfactory. This
mixture consists Of ground oats and
cornmeal, each three parts, and oilmeal
and bran, each one part. Very little
calves are given tiny handful OF this
mixture. This is increased until two
pounds are given to a six months old
calf when on pasture in summer. Year
lings are given three pounds Of this
mixture and those eighteen months
old four pounds If the pasture is short
/ find that this grain mixture is just
as good for winter feeding as for sum
mer feeding. The quality varies from
three to six pounds daily and is fed in
connection with silage and clover or
alfalfa hay. Nothing Is 30 good for
calves as the legume hays. Another
thing is to arrange in some manner
shade for calves in hot weather and
either a run where calves can get In
the bushes or a dark shed where they
can go to avoid flies. l should have
stated that when the calves are very
young separator milk is given twice
daily at FIRST and then later once a day.

astonishing how much water a COW
will drink In a day. This water should
by all means be clean. Frequently
cows are compelled to get their water
from stagnant ponds during the sum-
mer season. Such water is certainly
not suited to go into a food product.
An abundant supply of clean, fresh
water is indispensable on a dairy farm.

mother have made big milk records.
The bull should be a pure bred, but
that In itself is no evidence that he Is
desirable. There are lots of culls
among pure bred bulls, and for this
reason no bull should be purchased un-
less the record of his mother and his
sire's mother is known. An extra $50
invested in an extra good record back
of bull Is sure to bring manifold re-
turns. There are many records that
show that good bull is capable of
producing heifers which will milk from
1000 to 1900 quarts more a year than
do their mothers.
Where mixed timothy hay and corn
stover are fed as roughage a dry COW
requires at least four pounds of grain
a day. This may consist of one pound
Of hnseed meal and three pounds<pure

ly valuable before calving because IF

Some milk may well be fed to the

eleven pounds Of milk n day. After

care Of u.ifer With First Cali.

On farms where the heifers have
been hand raised and have always
been treated as pets there is usually
little difficulty In getting them accus
toned to being MIXED when they first
calve. They will, of course, be SEINE
what nervous, but with careful han,
ding, treating them with gentleness at
all times, they will soon stand quietly
while being MIXED and take their
places in the herd like old cows. 1t Is
worth while to take some pains with
heifers at this time, because a little
harshness in their handling might east
ly develop habits that would make
them very disagreeable as milk cows.

IMPORTANCE OF GOOD
UDDER Development

Many owners of dairy cows do not
place sufficient Importance upon udder
in the cows that they keep
and breed, writes w. HI. Underwood In
the Iowa Homestead. The principle
that like begets like has become one
of the dominant factors In the handling
of profitable milk producers. While We
have known few cows with apparent
ly small udders that gave a good guam
tity of milk we have also noticed that
give a small quantity. An udder that
hangs low is not to be coveted in a
COW, as 1t does not add symmetry or
beauty to the animal, and too often its
dangling motion when the COW is walk
ing is an Irritating influence. 1t can
not possibly give such good results as
would an udder that reaches well to
the front and rear.
When purchasing a cow always
avoid one that has an inverted pyra-
mid udder with teats that partake of
the conical outline. A COW Of that Or
der is not a choice animal to milk and
seldom gives good results at the pail.
We have known dairymen to select
one or two cows that had fine udders
and teats for the purpose of building
UP a herd of the same order, but unless
the dams have an ancestry well de-
veloped in this particular such meth

Cottonseed meal Is one Of the cheap
est sources Of protein supply for dairy
cows, according to r. 8. Hulce Of the
University of Illinois. Only meal that
Is in good condition should be used in
a grain mixture. Since the meal itself
is a very rich concentrate the amount
Of cottonseed meal fed daily should
ordinarily not exceed three pounds and
should be used as one Of several feeds
in a grain mixture. The character of
the grain mixture that should be fed
viii depend somewhat on the nature
Of the roughages being used.
