REPORT OF BARABOO
COW TESTING ASSN

The forty-pound list is somewhat
small for February, as it is a short
month and does not give the cows
as good chance as if it had 80 days.
Where clover and alfalfa have been
fed all winter and a sudden change
was made to timothy hay, the cows
have dropped off as much as rs
pounds of butterfat since last month.
This should be an inducement for
every farmer to grow alfalfa and clio.
yer on his own farm so that he would
have this to feed in the winter. AL
falfa at $22 per ton, when fed with
good silage is cheaper than bran at
$35 per ton. Alfalfa and silage make
a we'll balanced feed, as alfalfa is
high in protein and silage is high in
c. III. and fat.
l.. r. Siebecker raised about 80
! tons Of alfalfa last year and got il
cured in good shape, which made the
best of hay for his cows all winter
He is feeding some of his grade cows
alfalfa, good silage and no grain, and
| it is interesting to note that these cows
are in good condition and are making
a good profit at very low cost Of
feed, when all is raised on the farm
Let our motto be Alfalfa on every
] farm"
Following is the list of cows giving
40 pounds or more of butterfat fol
the month, and cost Of feding them.

this score was due mainly to the effect
which the death of COnlOn had had
upon his own plans.
Now he could not return directly to
his parents, as he had planned. Fear
Of the primitive borderland law, of
which he had read highly cOlOred, i'm
aginary tales, had thrust him into the
jungle-a fugitive. He dared not re-
turn TO the coast at this point, not
that he was so greatly influenced
through personal fear as from a desire
to shield bis father and mother from
further sorrow and from the shame Of
having their honored name dragged
through the sOrdid degradation of a
murder trial.
With returning day the boys spirits
rose. With the rising sun came new
hope within his breast. He would re-
turn to civilization by another way.
None would guess that he had been
connected with the killing of the stran-
ger in the little out of the way trading
post upon a remote shore.
