Feeding Association Test.

The Association test for the month of
August shows very >trikingIv the effects of
proper feeding and managing OF the herd.
The herds that have been fed balanced ra-
that of those fed on poor ration. The
most economical productions have been
made by those cows fed on leguninuS hay
or siage, with Il mixture of cotton seed
meal and wheat bran. Where the legtlme
is used for forage, less of the grain mixture
is required
The tendency among the farmers seem TO
be to dispose of the calves for veal. This
furnishes an early return for the farmers, but
where the calves are properly handled, and
insult especially the hrifer calves, the profits
can be greatly increased by raising them for
producers By raising the calves by hand,
using skim milk in place of Whole milk, the
cost of raising can be greatly reduced.
Following a re the names and records of
the cows in the Association that have pro-
duced more than so lbs ot butter fat, or
