CARE OF DAIRY CALF
Labor Expense in Raising Heifer
Is Not Large.
stoekman Who Has Disease-Free Herd
10 Assuming Risk Of Introducing
Disease When New Animal
10 Purchased.

(By r 8. HULCE and W. B. NENENS,l
During THE past five years the feed
cost of raising heifer to two years
Of age has probably been about $50,
except where cheap pasture was avail
able. The total cost of raising includes
also the items of labor, housing and
miscellaneous expenses. In consider
ing the latter items it Is well to men
ton the fact that on the ordinary
farm the additional labor expense
which the raising of few calves in
wolves is not large. The expense in
volved makes it apparent that unless
the animal is from ancestry the fe-
males of which are capable of pro-
ducing product that will sell for more
than the expense of producing it, the
heifer should not be raised. On the
other hand, the stockman who has n
disease-free herd is assuming risk
of introducing disease when a new ami
NAL Is purchased. Considerations such
as these confront every owner of dairy
cattle.
The Importance of feeding the calf
regularly cannot be overempha aStZed.

Jersey Calf One Year Old.

The digestive capacity of the young
calf is not suited to receive large
quantities of milk at time, but is
better adapted for receiving small
amounts often. A young calf fed milk
three times daily will thrive better
than if fed the same total amount in
two feeds, providing the milk IS always
fed in a uniform condition.
A general guide for using whole
milk is to feed it at the rate of one
pound daily TO each eight pounds of
live weight, rarely feeding more than
IL pounds per day. The length of the
time whole milk should be fed will de-
pend quite largely on whether skim
milk is available. If skim milk is to
be had, it can be fed to good advan-
tage at the rate of about Is pounds
daily. instead of u, to calves of the
larger breeds. The use of factory skim
milk has several disadvantages as COM
pared with fresh, farm-separated milk.
If the milk is pasteurized at the fac
tory, it may be too warm to feed when
1t reaches the farm in the forenoon,
and at night it will need warming. In
summer there may be times when the
factory skim milk will sour during the
day, so that ii is difficult to keep the
milk in a uniform condition for calf
feeding. In the feeding of calves, sud
den changes either in quality or guam
tity of feed are to be avoided if the
best use is to be made of the feed.
Diseases such as tuberculosis and
foot-and-mouth disease may be carried
by skim milk unless it is thoroughly
pasteurized at the factory.

SHIELD TREES FROM
RABBITS IN WINTER
When Vegetable Food Is Not
Available They Often Harm
Trees by Eating Bark.
(By D. c. MooRING)


Rabbits are very particular as to
what they eat, and feed only on vege-
table matter. They prefer the more
succulent kinds. such as vegetables,
clover. alfalfa, fallen fruit, etc. When
none of these foods are available they
often eat the bark OF trees, especially
when snow covers other food.
1t Is very easy to prevent rabbits
from injuring trees, and all cases of
damage are due to neglect rather than
to a lack of efficient remedies. A
number of preventives. all of which
are efiicacious, are given below.
Your premises should not afford
hiding places for rabbits, such us briar
patches, brush piles, etc. This Is not
meant to include green cover crops
in the orchard; as Is stated above,
green and succulent food is preferred
by the rabbits and an orchard with
a cover crop above the snow is seldom
If ever injured.
Traps are very effective in catching
rabbits. The more traps you have, so
much the better. This is not so eco
nomical method as poisoning for
protecting the trees, but 1t furnishes
amusement for the children and also
provides some meat for the table.
There are two general ways Of poi
soning rabbits, namely: (1) by plac.
ing poisoned water in their runs. espe.
cially during dry weather.; (2) by
placing poisoned food where they can
get it. The following, which was
originally recommended by the Ohio
Experiment station, has given good
satisfaction: One part sulphate ot
strychnia, one-third part borax, one
part white syrup, ten parts water
Shake well and apply to tender twigs
with brush or by dipping, and distrib
ute the poisoned twigs around tht
trees.
Where the planting is valuable
enough to justify the expense,
woven wire fence is desirable. as i
Will exclude the rabbits.

ly used and is cut into strips 1S t.

Wooden veneer strips of about tn

give good results. They should b
