FAVOR BLUE GRASS
FOR FEEDING SWINE.
Not Generally Recognized That
Plant May Be Utilized for
Pork Production.

(By T. B. MUMFORD, Dean of Missouri
College of Agriculture.)
Blue grass has long been proftably
used by the Missouri farmer for feed
ing cattle. 1t has not been generally
recognized that it may also be util-
lied for pork production. At the Mis-;
souri, experiment station during the
five-year period from 1908 to 1912 the
average amount of pork produced from
an acre of blue grass amounted to $26
when the live weight value Of hogs
was calculated at eight cents per
pounS.
IN securing these returns from blue
grass pasture it is necessary to recog-
nize two qualities which clearly dis
tinguish blue grass from alfalfa, clover
and rape pasture. In the first place,
much larger amount of grain must be
fed to hogs on blue grass than to hogs
on rape, clover or alfalfa. Another diff
ference lies in the fact that during the
middle Of the summer from about
July Is to August 80 blue grass is of
little or no value for hog pasture. Dur
ing this time clover, alfalfa or rape
pasture should be provided. The grain
fed to hogs on blue grass pasture
should be we'll balanced--a grain mix
ture of six parts of corn and one of
linseed oil meal, or ten parts of corn
and one part of tankage. A good rule
to follow in determining the amount
of grain to be fed is to feed just as
much grain as will cause the animal
to gain an average of three-fourths of
a pound a day per 100 pounds live
weight.

SKIM MILK CALF IS
GROWING In FAVOR
Equally as GroWthy, Thrifty and
Vigorous as Those Allowed
to Run With Dams.

It is now fairly we'll understood,
says the Nebraska college of agricul-
ture, that calves properly raised on
skim milk are equally as growthy,
thrifty, and vigorous as those raised
upon the whole milk or those allowed
to run with their dams. In fact, the
skim milk calf will oftentimes show a
more rugged framework than calf
raised on whole milk.
Except for the fat that has been
removed, skim milk is Identical in
composition with whole milk. Mhen
whole milk is taken into the calfs
body, the fat of the milk is used to
produce heat to keep the calf warm
and also to form body fat. This same
function can be performed very much
more cheaply by starchy grains such
as corn, kafir corn and oats.
] 1 The protein of milk, which is the
constituent most concerned IN muscu-
lar growth and the building up OF the
vital organs, is equally as abundant IN
skim milk as in whole milk.

An experiment for the purpose of
ascertaining the cost of feeding mule
colts-the first accurate test of the
kind-began November rs, 1915, and
ended April 4, covering a period of
100 days. The report of this expert
ment was one of the interesting fea-
lures of the third annual roundup at
Hays station of the Kansas agricul-
tural college.
The total cost of maintaining 81
mule colts, including both feed and
labor, was $252.y6, or $8.16 per head.
The average initial weight per animal
was 545 pounds, while the average
weight at the close of the test was 654
pounds, a gain Of 100 pounds. The
mule colts were purchased for the ex-
pertinent at the time Of weaving.
Following is an itemized statement

SKIMPING FOOD OF
COLT is EXPENSIVE
Feed and Care Young Animal
Gets Determines Largely What
: 1t Will Be Later On.


SO 1t is a poor policy to skimp the colts
feed, says ]. S. Montgomery of the
animal husbandry division of the Min
nesota college of agriculture. The
feed and care colt gets the first year
and half of it's life determines large
ly what it will be at maturity, Mr..
Montgomery says.
.'Jf the mare is worked, keep the
colt in cool, dark stall during the
day." he suggests. For the first few
weeks after foaling, bring the mare to
the barn and allow the colt to suckle.
Do this in the middle of the forenoon
and in the middle of the afternoon, as
we'll as at morning, noon and night.
Encourage the colt to eat early,
preferably feeding crushed oats and
bran in equal parts. Let him have al
falfa and clover hay as soon as he will
eat it. Experience shows that ra-
ton of corn and alfalfa gives better
results than ration of corn and tim
othy or prairie hay"
Mr.. Montgomery says the best ra-
ton for the colt during the summer is
good pasture grass. Maximum growth
comes with feeding of some grain
with the pasture grass. Horses and
colts in the pasture should be given
ready access to fresh, cool, clean water
and to salt. A colt stunted early never
fully RECEIVERS, he says.
A little attention to the feet of the
colt will greatly repay by better feet
and legs in the mature horse, Mr..
Montgomery thinks. The heels should
be trimmed, he says, for they soon be-,
come high, narrow and rolled under,
and the toes should not be allowed to
grow abnormally long.

Those who are gifted with the fac
ulty for creating styles must also be
able to adapt styles to women of va
rious ages. They contrive to interpret
them in many ways, so that garments
bespeak youthful or older wearers. In
the picture two coats are shown. The
checked model leaves no doubt in the
mind that it is suited to and made for
a young woman. The coat of covert
cloth is not quite so decided in char
acter.
These coats are recommended to
meet the general needs of every day
for young women. The checked mod
ell is in black and white, bordered and
banded with black satin. The rolling
