the herd sire. says the head Of the
dairy husbandry department at Iowa
State College.
Altho there Is no definite experiment
on which to base the claim, many feel
that feeding too much silage may i'm
pair the breeding power of bull. The
only use Of silage In bulls allowance
Is to keep the animal in good condition
and the coat sleek and to do this, only
10 to Is pounds need be fed 1t Is GER
tain that too large amounts of roughage
tend to enlarge the middle and make
the bull less active for service.
Best results are secured when clover
hay and limited amount Of silage and
u small amount of corn, oats and bran
are allowed. The bull should be kept
in moderate flesh, not fat, for best re-
suits.

FARMER READS OF
X SUCCESS WITH DAIRY
. AND BECOMES BREEDER

Five years ago c. FL. Smith of Trip
oil, picked UP farm paper and read
the story of farmer who had made
money out Of Holstein cows. III It's
been DONE l can do it," he said to him
self. He has done it, He has made q
name for himself besides.
Smith now owns six Holstein COWS.
In January one of his cows, Korndyke
Ormsby Fobes, made the highest rec
ord for months butter fat produce
ton in Iowa, 1868 pounds. That same
COW as 3-year- DID, in an official seven
day test, made new state record of
1928 pounds Of fat and 457.9 pounds
Of milk. At the same time. another Of
his 3-year- olds made an official one day
record Of his herd Of six cows Of which
but one is a mature COW, was 90,S27
pounds of milk and 3,OS4 pounds Of fat.
Twice last year he got the biggest check
from the creamery and some Of his
neighbors who sold to the same creaml
cry own 20 to 25 cows.
Here's Mr.. Smiths recipe for sue
cess in dairying:
Before going into the dairy business
he went to live with one Of the most
successful dairymen in Iowa, to learn
how 1t is done.
When he was ready to start in BUSH
ness he bought 80 acres. He bought 3
heifers and a bull as foundation stock,
from the best Holstein herd in the
state.
He joined COW testing association.
the Tripoli- Westgate. an
He does all his own work. M
He milks his COWS four times a day
and keeps them groomed, blanketed
and well fed.

The lack of snow may partly account
for this poor prospect. Reports come
from a number Of people that the
ground has frozen deeper this winter
than usual. Furthermore, the season
for the beginnfngg Of the growth OF
wheat was not as favorable as IT might
have been. One feature OF the situa-
