FIVE POUNDS OF MILK ON ONE
POUND OF GRAIN.


c. II. Packard, Of Delavan, Wiscon-
sin, a progressive and practical dairy
man, was not satisfied with his ration
of homegrown feed. Although he
mixed his ration with brains and It
seemed to be theoretically correct, he
thought he would try out his own
mixture In comparison with a first
class dairy feed. Much to his surprise
he found that he could save about
five lbs. Of grain per cow per day and
nearly 5 cents per COW. He figured
his own grain at prices much below
the wholesale market and bought his
mixed feed at retail.
Also when his ration was figured &C
cording to Armsby or Energy method
his mixed feed proved to be the right
combination to make balanced ration
with his own farm roughage.

farmer who has devoted his life
time to the study of feeding generally
has more success through his common
sense methods than any scientific
analysis can supply. If such q feeder
could have on hand all Of the in
gradients (most by-products of cereal
manufacture), which according to the
market at the time would be more
economical, he could, through his ex-
perlence, be very successful in mix
ing his feeds. But the difficulty with
the average man is to maintain an
economical ration from the products
of his own farm.
He may be an expert, If he chooses
TO study out a new ration every time
the market changes. but he generally
prefers to let someone who makes a
business of mixing feeds do it for him.
No doubt the majority of users of
mixed feeds begin to buy it because
OF a shortage OF forage and grain
crops on the farm.
If such a man will keep books he
will find that as a usual thing the
use Of mixed stock feed is a mere mat
ter Of arithmetic whether he could
buy the ingredients cheaper than he
could buy them in a so-called bal
anced" ration.

IN PIONEER

How the Presidents Message was
brought to Milwaukee.
The twentieth century American
reads at his breakfast table the whole
worlds doings of the day before. This
is privilege which was denied to our
forefathers, yet the modern spirit of
Journalistic enterprise and competition
was not unknown to them. Although
Milwaukee was but a small town in
1916, the rivalry of the local editors
to be first to publish the presidents
annual message led the editors of the
Setinel and Courier to anticipate
the regular express service by journey
ing to Chicago to meet and from there
forward the message to Milwaukee by
private conveyance. The message was
received in Chicago by Wells Fargo
Express at four o'clock P. M. Fifteen
minutes later the editor of the Courier
was on his way to Milwaukee with it.
Eight miles out the Sentinel editor
passed. him and the run became
exciting" The editor of the Courier
who won the race, thus humorously
concludes his account of it: eve ar
rived at Milwaukee a few minutes
before two o'clock; making nine hours
and forty minutes from the fremont
House in Chicago to the United States
Hotel in Milwaukee-a little the quick
est run ever made over the same route
by any white man. Mr., Fillmore is
hard one to beat, and with our four
inches advantages of legs we were but
little more than an hour and a half
ahead OF him. We issued the Message
in an extra at ten o'clock the same
day"

MUST TASTE GOOD.

National Crop Improvement Servicsl
A dairy ration must, OF all things,
be palatable so that cow will eat it.
1t must be bulky and coarse so as to
avoid indigestion and sickness. It
must contain a variety OF foods SO
that the COW will not tire of it or get
OFF her feed. 1t must contGin enough
real protein-all protein is not alike
1t must contain the right amounts
and kinds of mineral substances nee
essary to life, health and milk secre-
ton. 1t must be highly digestible
Many feeds are only about fifty to
sixty per cent digestibIe and the work
of excreting SO much waste matter is
costly in that it uses up the ene1 gy of
the food to do it.

The response that is being made by
the people to the Liberty Loan is both
inspiring and encouraging. Individu-
ais and corporatios alike are subscrib-
ing generously-among the first of
the latter being the National Biscuit
company, who took a half million dol
lars of bonds. To conserve what our
ancestors fought for and to make the
world safe for democracy, the Liberty
Loan must be made great patriotic
success, for the future peace and Sc
curity of the world are in the balance
Here is real opportunity to help the
nation. Now is the time for all good

THE MANURIAL INGREDIENTS OF
FEEDS

National Crop improvement servicel
Nitrogen is the most important and
most valuable fertilizing element sup
piled by feeds, and it Is in this ele-
ment that they show the greatest
variation.
The Connecticut Experiment Sta
ton states that it was found that the
average mixed fertilizer contained
2.95 per cent nitrogen and showed in
a table that eighteen of f1fty-two diff
ferent feeds contained 1913 per cent.
Among this list Is cottonseed and lin
seed meals, gluten seed, middlings,
brewers and distillers' products, and
a few of the feed mixtures. 1t is OBJ
Vious, therefore, that a wise selection
Of feeds enhances the value of the
manure and consequently plays an
important part in farm economy.

is not coming back. She has enlisted
her services with the Ohio State Coun-
Gil of Defense, and will do conserva-

In her leaving Grand Rapids, our pub

excellent character and ability, and
will prove to be great loss to our

RED CROSS
CAMP IGN

Washington, D. c. Answering a
call from stricken humanity such as
it has never before heard, the Ameri-
can Red Cross is now making the last
preparations for RED Cross Week,
proclaimed by President Wilson for
June IS to 25.
The prime purpose Of that weeks
nationwide campaign is the compile
ton Of War-fund of 100000, 000 To
this end the War Council of the Red
Cross, with Henry P. Dawson its chair
man, and Seward Prosser, chairman
of the Executive Committee of the FL
nance Committee, as leaders Of the
forces have been bending every en-
ergy day and night in the last month.
The Committee, announced today
the following allotment, by States, of
sums to be collected to make up the
500, 100000 fund.
Wisconsin is to raise $1,000,000 as
her share.

for the broad plans in preparation for
the final weeks drive are thoroughly
matured and under way.
Sunday, June II, is Bunker Hill
Day." by historical right. This year
it will become "Red Cross Sunday" as
well. For on that day the clergy of
the nation of all denominations will
lift a united voice in appeal for the
hearty support of the Red Cross. And
on the Sunday following, just at the
close of the week of money gathering,
the churches will take up their Red
Cross collection to round out the fund.
Details of Next Weeks Work
The plan followed is similar in all
the cities and towns of the country.
On Monday evening, June 10, in New
York City, at the Waldorf Hotel the
men who are going to become solicitors
for the Red Cross funds all the week
in New York meet for final organiza
tion dinner. A similar gathering will
take place simultaneously in cities all

SUCCESSFUL FEEDING.

National Crop improvement Servicel
It Is most significant and probably
the best argument for mixed feeds
when it is considered that a large
number of the most prominent and
skilled men in America have dis
carded their own mixed feeds and
rations because they have found a
satisfactory brand of feed which will
make as much milk at less cost and
no trouble and, above all, keeps cows
in perfect health
Many agricultural schools and ex-
pertinent stations use and have used
them for the same reason.
You can verify this by writing to
any experiment station and they will
give you the names of mixed brands
which are best adapted to your pur-
pose.

National Crop Improvement ServicsI
Stockfood consists briefly Of three
chief parts or compounds, emitting
the water and minerals. They are:
Protein Containing nitrogen), a
muscle former.
Fat (not containing nitrogen), a
fuel or fattening substance.
Carbohydrates (meaning made of
carbon, hydrogen and OXYGEN.
These three substances are called
organic matter, because they will
burn.
Mineral matter is called inorganic.
An animal can live on protein alone,
but would not under normal condi-
tions, because protein Cor albumen)
is only found mixed with fat in the
case Of meat and with fat and carbo-
hydrates in the case of plants and
cereals. Familiar examples of pro-
teIn are white OF egg, lean meat and
the gluten which can be chewed out
Of wheat. Fat or oil we all know.
Carbohydrates include sugar,
starch, cellulose, fibre, gums, etc.
To keep alive and not lose weight
an animal must have small amounts
of protein and larger amounts of fat
or carbohydrates. They serve as
building material to replace WORKOUT
tissue and flesh and also to furnish
power (energy) to move, work, and
do all the inside work of the body.
The ash Or mineral matter fur
nishes bone material and is also nee

growing animal needs plenty of pro-
TEN and ash (bone food) and of car
