HAY SUPPLY FOR DAIRY COWS
Roughages Are Relatively cheana.
Than Grain, but Should Not Be
Fed Exclusively.

Because Of the large hay crop ana
the small demand for it now, rougbores
should be fed to the limit of the dairv
cows capacity, says Prof. @. C. Hav-
den OF the Ohio experiment station
Relatively, the roughages, like hav
and corn slower, are much cheaper than
grains, and hay is OF unusually good
quality. Roughage, of course, should
not be fed exclusively, as such feeding
might lead TO compaetion and death
even in dry cows and heifers. Some
grain is needed in every dairy ration
This dairy specialist also declares
"Choice alfalfa hay at $40 a ton il
cheaper than bran at $50. Our expert
ments show that soy bean hay is in the
same class as alfalfa, and clover is
third. With corn at 81 bushel, clover
hay should be worth about $40 ton, or
So more than 1t is now quoted"
Timothy hay is recommended for
milking cows only in small quantities.
to replace such grains as corn ana
hominy. Leguminous roughages have
proved far superior in numerous ex-
periments to timothy for cows in milk.

The allies, he added, had paid their
way In the war by the straightfor-

out their gold, by selling enormous
