DEHORNlNG FEEDER CATTLE is GOOD PLAN

side Of the head, burning of the hair
and causing needless pain.
If dehornng is not done at this
time, wait until the horn has made ii
fair growth and then use either the
saw or the clippers, which must be
used In any case if feeders are pur-
chased"
Clippers are quicker and less pain
full than the saw, in the opinion OF
Mr. Mann. They make cleaner cut,
however, which bleeds longer than that
made with a saw In either case, ons
should cut little below the union OF
the horn and skin or the horn will start
growing out again.
In this part Of the country the best
time for dehOrning by the last two
methods IS in October or the latter
part of March; that Is neither In real
~ cold weather nor In fly time. In fly
time the animal Is somewhat run down
and flies cause great suffering, pre-
vent the wound from healing, and are
Il source Of infection.
For few days after the operation
avoid giving the cattle dusty hay or
other feeds in which there Is much
dust, rs the wounds are liable to /
come infected and cause trouble.

Dehorn!ng Is Il good Plan With stock
or and feeder CaItlc or calves TO he
kept for feeders, according TO l.. b,
Mann, fellow In animal husbandry in
the Kansas State Agricultural college.
The chief advantages of dehorn-
Ing" says Mr.. Mann, are convenience
and economy in the feed lot and In
shipping, and possibly slight increase
Ia market value.
Animals being fitted for baby beef
should not be dehorned as with
horned breeds the age can be told APP
proximately by the size of the horn,
and when the horns are removed the
buyer may suspect an animal of being
over the age limit and may cut down
somewhat on the price.
May Dehorn Calves Early.
IF the feeder Is raising his own
calves, the best method of dehorning
VIII be found to be an application Of
caustic soda or caustic potash when
the calf is few days Old or when the
button can be felt through the skin
Wet the stick of caustlc slightly and
rub 1t we'll on the skin over the horn
after first clipping the hair off the re-

FEED FOR SKIM MILK CALVES
Grain Mixture Of Cracked Corn and
Wheat Bran Is Recommended by
Missouri Expert.

Whole milk is natures balanced ra-
during the first two weeks of the calf's
life. Whole milk, however, is too ex-
pcnSive for prolonged calf-feeding, be-
cause the fat it contains is worth APP
proXimately 40 cents pound.
In view of this price, it is advisable
to sell the fat and feed skim milk with
Il substitute for butter fat The chief
office of fat In the calf ration is to sup
10y heat to the body. When the fat is
removed and skim milk is fed the en-
ergy can be supplied more economical
ly in the form of grain.
Protein is also expensive, but absO-
lutely essential to development of the
calf's body. None of the growth-pro-
ducing prOteins is removed by skim
ming the milk.
When calf is about two weeks old
1t may be taught to eat grain. If it is
with older cflves It will take groin
without any special attention. Other
wise 1t may be started to eating by
rubbing a small amount of corn meal
or bran on its nose. In licking it's
muzzle the calf will develop an anne
lite for the grain. The grain may be
kept constantly before the calf for q
few days. w. W. SWEET of the Missou-
II College of Agriculture offers the
following grain mixture for calves.
Three parts cracked corn or cornmeaI
and one part wheat bran. To this one
part oats may be added If desired.
Linseed meal or blood meal NAV also
