The Condition of the 1915
Demonstrations of Alfalfa
and Lime

The demonstrations with alfalfa and
lime have come through the winter in
a more or less satisfactory condition.
The lime which has been on the soil
one or two years is beginning to show
the value of it's use and many farmers
will do we'll to observe these demon
strations, and better yet, try some
lime on their farm. The one discour-
aging fact about it is that it takes
from one to three years to show
results, but in most cases the results
are very appare Mt. The alfalfa
demonstrations, while they are not as
much of decided success as they
might be. yet they serve to show what
conditions are necessary for a success
full growth. Some of the demonstra-
tons were cut late in the fall and did
not have enough for winter protection
and are spotted in places where the
snow did not cover them all winter.
Some started little slow, due to the
fact that they heaved from one-half
to three inches, and as the roots were
not in contact with the soil when the
growing season began they were from
one week to ten days later getting
started, but practically all the demon
strations are growing nicely at this
time and there seems to be great
deal of interest in this crop in Orleans
county.

Summer Ration for Milking
Cows

In the first number Of the Agricul-
tural News some suggestions were
made in regard to the balancing of
rations for the dairy COW, and we are
offering some additional suggestions
to meet the seasonabIe conditions.
The reason for this is that there is a
difference in the percentage of protein
contained in grass as compared with
hay and silage. The grass carries so
much more that it is not question of a
nigh protein grain ration, but one
carrying more carbohydrates to balance
up with grass. Home grown grains,
corn meal, and hominy can be fed to
good advantage at this season Of the
year. A very good winter ration was
suggested which was made up of 2
parts distillers' grains, 80 per cent
protein one part cotton seed, Al per
cent protein; one part bran and one
part hominy. For those who are feed
ing this ration it can be adjusted by
adding two additional parts of hominy,
making three parts hominy in all.
This will bring the nutritive ratio of
this ration from one part protein to
three parts carbohydrates to one part
protein to nearly five parts carbohy-
drates. Another ration which should
be fully as satisfactory and more
economical would be two parts hominy,
one part distillers' grains, and one part
bran. Gluten could be substituted for
the distillers' grains, but this would
cause the mixture to be heavier and for
that reason would not be quite as
desirable. Cotton seed meal is not a
desirable feed for summer because it
carries such a high percentage of
protein and low percentage of carbo-
hydrates that it does not meet the feed
requirements of the COW. 1t is espe-
cialIy undesirable at this season be-
cause of the high price. Feeds which
are running low at the present time
in comparison with others are hominy
and distillers' grains and should be the
base of a ration for economic feeding.
Ground oats or barley can be added tC
this mixture to good advantage. Il
barley or cats are used make mixture
of equal parts of hominy, distillers
grains, and ground oats or barley.
A great many farmers in the county
realize the value of feeding through
the summer. While the cows may no.
give a great deal more milk than they
would without the grain, yet it helps
to maintain their flesh which will keeI
them up on their flow of milk longer
in the season and they will come to the
barn in the fall in very good working
condition. 1t is easy to put the fiesf
back on a COW after she has reached
the barn but it impossible to bring bacl
her flow of milk to any great extern
without a considerable outlay o:
money in grain. This year whel
prices Of butter are above the average
and grain prices are about normal i
seems a good business proposition t.
feed reasonable amount to the cows.

Cow Testing Association s

The cow testing association reports
are beginning to lengthen out more
than usual This is undoubtedly due
to the large number of COWS freshen
ing at this time Of year and good pas
lures. The Derby association shows
per cent of the total number of cows
making over 40 pounds Of fat. The
most interesting part of it is that IL
cows made over so pounds of butter
fat last month. The Lamoille Valley
Cow Testing association continues to
hold its own and the Missisquoi asso-
citation has a splendid showing.

FieldDemonstration Meetings

The county agent will hold field
demonstration meetings as given by
the schedule below. These meetings
will be held on the farms where
demonstrations with alfalfa, chemical
top dressing for grass, lime, spraying
for the eradication of kale, and what
ever else can be shown of interest to
the farmers. It is hoped that the
farmers will take advantage of these
meetings that they may see for them
selves the principles and practices that
are brought out and the results OBJ
tanned.

The county agent for the past two
weeks has been engaged in placing
demonstrations. Those which are
taking the attention at the present
time are corn, soy beans, orchard
work, spraying for the eradication of
kale, and making preparations for
alfalfa demonstrations to be put in
soon. 1t is planned to put a sign on
each demonstration that is located
near the road, and where they are not
on the road one will be placed on the
farm so that persons interested can see
the results by taking a little pains.
1t is hoped that these signs will be up
before the end of the month.
The farmers should keep in mind
that the Barton fair is an Orleans
county institution and is deserving OF
the support of every farmer, not only
by their attendance, but by exhibiting
their stock and products. Every year
there is better stock left at home on
the farms than is exhibited at the
fair. By little effort, which will be
amply rewarded, the livestock part of
the fair could be doubled and easily
tripled with stock from Orleans county.
This year the danger from foot and
mouth disease and similar diseases is
not as apparent as last year. Let
the farmers boost the Orleans County
Fair.
