BALANCED RATION FOR CALF
Separator Milk Is Liable to Cause In.
digestion, caprieious Appetite
and Diarrhea.

(By GEORGE II. GLOVER, Colorado
Agricultural College, Fort Collins.)
Separator milk is not a balanced
ration for calves. On this feed alone,
and the way 1t is usually given to
them, they are liable to get indiges-
ton, as shown by bloated condition,
capricious appetite and diarrhea. Most
OF this trouble can be averted by add
ing handful of oilmeal, cornmeal or
cottonseed meal, to supply, in a way,
the fat that has been removed In the
skimming. The milk should be given
to them warm and never when ii is
frothy. Never allow a calf to drink
all of the milk that it wants at one
meal. 1t is bad practice to allow sew
eral calves to drink out of one
trough, some of them will get too
much. Care in feeding calves is of
vastly more Importance than cures
for calf scours.

DAIRY FARMER LOSES MONEY
Raises Most Of Feed and Buys Very
Little MateriaI-Herd Helps Keep
Up Fertility Of Soil.

How can a dairy farmer lose money
on his cows and still make a living?
The answer is easy. The farmer raises
most OF his feed and probably buys
very little material not raised on the
farm to assist him in feeding appetiz-
ing balanced rations. He has the herd
to assist him in keeping up the fertil-
ity of the soil and spends little If any
money for commercial fertilizers. 1t
results in a small profit on the farm,
but profit is made on feed raised and
Not on the dairy cattle that consume
Ii.
The farmer who is losing money on
dairy cattle, but yet making a living
on his farm might possibly make more
money If he sold the feed, used fer
tilizer to keep up the fertility of his

land, and spent the time used In car
ing for the cows In some form Of in
tensive farming which would make
him at least wages for his time.
1t Is a fact that you cannot make
money on a losing proposition and 1t
follows that the man who is losing
money on dairy cattle is not making
living by selling dairy products. He
is making his living because of the
crops produced on the farm plus the
fact that his living expenses are not
large.
