THE PRIZE
PRoFlr IN COWS

Forder-Anent the Introduction of
la number of high grade Holstein COWS
in this vicinity the following account
Of the success which has attended
the efforts of J. ]. Hall, who lives
over the line in Ell Paso county, with
this grade of cows will be of interest.
Mr.. Hall is an enthusiast for Hol-
stein cows, and backs his enthusiasm
by figures which cannot be disputed.
What Mr.. Hall has done can and will
be accomplished by many others, and
the story of his success will be the
story Of many others. The advice of
q farm journal would be good to fol-
low: Dispose of your poor stuff
and replace them with STUFF that has
blood. quality and quantity"
Thirty Holstein grades on the farm
of Mr.. Hall, are yielding $50 to 500
pounds of cream q week throughout
the summer, selling for twenty-four
cents pound. The cream is shipped
to Colorado Springs from Calhan.
The Hall dairy is one of the oldest
in Ell Paso county, Mr.. Hall having
settled on his present farm nineteen
years ago. With his two sons, he has
built up q flourishing business. There
are large, roomy barns with concrete
floors, and several big pit silos within
convenient reach Of the barns. The
silos cost little more than the men 3
labor. The cost of feeding the herd
during 1915 did not exceed $500.
Records show the cows were fed at q
cost of $40 to $25 a head for the year.
The principal diet is corn silage,
about forty pounds to each COW, and
fifteen pounds of alfalfa hay. The
cows range on native pasture. Alfal-
ia is grown in the draws of the farm
and yield two to three tons an acre.
Corn usually makes four to six tons
Of silage an acre in normal season.
Oats hay is also grown for feed. Last
winter $33 worth of bran was fed.
In 1914 the herd returned net pro-
fit Of more than $500. This year
the Indications are for larger re-
turn.
A profitable branch Of the dairy
business, says Mr.. Hall, Is the market
ing Of skim milk calves. The calves
are usually allowed to remain with
the mother three to fye days, after
which they are put on diet Of mo-
ther's milk. always fed warm, at the
rate Of about seven to eight pounds q
day. In four to five weeks this mo-
ther's milk u gradually thinned with
skim milk. also fed warm. till about
twelvs to fifteen pounds Of this milk
