FEEDING THE COW
BEFORE CALVING

The proper time to begin feeding
a dairy cow is six or eight weeks
before calving, and practical dairy
men agree that this preparation has
more to do with the amount of milk
and butter fat which a COW produces
during the lactation period than
does the feeding during any other
period.
For cows calving during the sum-
mer or early fall most dairymen
like to have a small pasture away
from the herd but with an album
dance of grass, and, in addition,
they like to feed a suitable grain
mixture. Corn silage, with clover
or alfalfa hay and a limited grain
ration cf three parts ground oats,
two parts of bran and one part of
oil meal is especially good for cows
calving during winter or early
spring. After calving the cows
should be brought slowly up to full
feed and thereby steadily to high
er production.

many hundreds of years. Lovers OF

Gated against free speech, and, bit
ten by the spy mania. some seek in
discriminatory to discriminate and
intern aliens on mere prejudice or

Tolerance is another name for free

THE SPIRIT OF FRANCE

Wartimes bring forth great emo
tions. All types and degrees of love
and hate are brought keenly to light
before the giant sword of Mars.
The American people delight in
looking back upon the Revolution to
see the part that France played in
the fight of the American colonies
for liberty. France, through such
leadership as Lafayette and his men,
sent the message to the world that it
believed in the rights of humanity,
in liberty. That spirit of France has
done more to bring it into close touch
with the United States than all the
diplomacy of the past decades
And now the United States has an
opportunity to show its appreciation
for the manifestations of that spirit
in times when it was sorely needed.
The United States has an opportunity
to send aid to the nation that sent
the sword to U.S.
Let us feed the spirit of France.

on TURNIPS

''On the fourteenth day of July
Sow your turnips wet or dry"
So runs an old farm rhyme, but the
author of the ancient verse doubtless
never knew the advantages of garden
turnips in the spring.
In fact, you may not only SOW your
turnips early-as soon as the soil is
ready for any crop-but preferably
wait for wet day. Damp ground
makes the turnip seed sprout WELL
Turnips are one of the easiest of
all garden crops to grow. They pro-
duce abundantly for each square foot
of soil devoted to them. Give turnips
a moist soil and cool weather in the
spring, and they will mature in about
sixty days or sooner The faster
they grow and the more luxuriant
their tops, the better they are. And
think of the good old turnip green's"
1t is well to plant spring turnips in
rich soil. If they grow slowly, they
become woody and bitter.
Turnip rows should be fifteen to
sixteen inches apart, to allow the tops
to spread and still have room for cuI-
tivation. A half ounce of seed will
plant 100 feet in a row. The seeds
should be planted half an inch deep.
Turnips are good food. A good crop
this spring and summer will help to
increase the food supply. If your
back yard lot is too wet for potatoes,
put it in turnips.

TOLERATING INTOLERANCE

Civilization, in spite of the mater
ialist, is not yet considered a mere
matter of technology; it is also a
matter of sentiment or, rather. of
opinion-particularly in these demo-
cratic days, of public opinion. Public
opinion is shown to be enlightened
by the tolerance it exhibits. Centu-
ries of persecution went by before we
realized that a man should be al
lowed to go to Heaven in his own
way; centuries, too, of struggle and
disaster before the people gained the
right of free speech and free assem-
blage-before, to put it largely, man
came to realize that his neighbor was
a person, like himself, and that there
were rights of personality as well
as of property and possession.
The present situation offers a sim
lister opportunity for the return of
this very hydra of intolerance that
we have been busy decapitatinp so
