ihended highly by the Connecticut sta
tlon. Containing coal-tar product and
I carbolic acid it acts as q wood stain
and remains effective for long neriod
OF time, being even more effective than
pure carbolic acid. One application a
year is generally sufficient, but it must
be used with discretion.
An excess amount either on the
roosts or on the adjoining boards NAV
result in eye trouble to the hens or
chlckens. To avoid this it is best TO
make the application when Changing

carooienium very literally in the
cracks between the boards. In badly
infested houses or where mites show
signs of returning it may be neces-
sary to make second application.

During periods of drought, when both

In planning summer silo it should
be Kept In mind that its diameter
should be in relation to the number

under summer conditions, a COW will
consume about 20 pounds of silage.

SUCCESSFUL FEEDING OF DAIRY COWS


Qrom the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
One of the most common mistakes
In the feeding of dairy cows on the
farm is that the good cows are not
given a sufficient quantity of feed
above that required for their physical
maintenance to obtain the maximum
quantity of milk they are capable of
producing. Successful feeding of dairy
cows involves the providing of an
abundant supply of palatable, nutri-
uous iced at minimum cost and feed
Ing in such way as to receive the
largest milk production from the feed
consumed. Feeding for profit is de-
fined as liberal feeding, or feeding to
the full capacity of the COW, in new
F@rmers' Bulletin of the department.
NO. TAB, THE Feeding of Dairy Cows"
which discusses many of the factors
involved in economical feeding.
from the standpoint of economical
milk production, dairy COW generally
should not be fed more than she will
consume without gaining in weight.
the bulletin, when 1t is desirable to
make exceptions to this rule. Prac-
tcally all heavy milk producers lose
weight in the early part of their lacta-
ZION period; that is, they produce milk
at the expense of their body flesh.
When such cows approach the end of
their milking period they normally re-
gain the flesh they have lost, and the
farmer can well afford to feed them
literally, with the assurance that he

when the cows again freshen.
Pasture is the natural feed for cows.
ana for average conditions, with am
pie pasture of good grasses or legumes
In good, succulent condition, good pro-
duction can be secured.
The cost of land is factor In the
economy of using pasture, however.
II pastures are depended upon entire
ly for from four to six months of the
year, and production is kept I'D to a
profitable standard, anywhere from
one TO four acres or more must be
provided for each COW, says the bulle-
TIN. This is assuming that per-
manent pasture is of good, clean turf,
with few or no waste places, or that
a temporary pasture has a good stand

tables show the cost of pasturing a COW
on land ranging from $25 to 5000 an
acre:
interest on cost Of pasture per COW |
for the season; interest at 6 per cent |
on the value of the land, allowing |
from one to four acres per COW:

USING DUAL-PURPOSE STOCK
More Milk Obtained From Cow of
Dairy ereed-More Meat Secured
From Beef Breeds.

Dual-purpose cattle may be very
profitable and often are. And yet the
dual purpose COW seldom produces as
much milk as one of dairy breed or
as much beef as one of the strictly
beef breeds.
On the other hand, admirers of the
uuai-purpose COW say that she pro-
duces more milk than the beef breeds
and more beef than the dairy breeds.
You will have to be your own judge
as to which way you wish to take it.

Holstein Cow.

ably used for growing crops, other
methods of summer feeding are more
profitable. 1t is stated that in some
sections for average production COW
can be fed on dry feed for 20 cents a
day, and when the cost of pasturlng
exceeds that amount some other meth
cd of feeding should be considered.
Grain should be fed to heavy-pro-
ducing cows under all pasture condi-
tons, says the bulletin. The follow
ing table is furnished as guide to
feeding grain with an abundant pas
ture. Variations should be made to
suit different conditions and Individual
