milk PRODUCTION
Cows Should BE Fed in Proportion tc
Yield Of Milk.

Every dairyman should find out the
profitable and Improbable cows in his
herd, and replace the latter by others
that will yield profitable returns for
the amount Of feed consumed. This
may easily be done by weighing the
total yield OF each COW per day; then
feeding each animal according to the
amount she produces in the "a hours.
For example, IL has been carefully
estimated that for a cow to do her
best, she should receive one pound Of
concentrated feed, with roughage In
addition, for each three and one.half
pounds OF milk she produces per day,
which is usually sufficient for her
own upkeep as well as her production
Of milk
As an illustration, let us say that a
COW produces So pounds of milk per
day: she ought to receive. approx
mately, ten pounds of concentrated
feed per day. On the other hand, II
her daily yield should be only IS
pounds of milk per day. she would be
entitled to only half the amount Of
feed that the 36-pound COW should
have II cow should go up in her
production, so should the amount Of
feed in the proportion mentioned
The rule. then. Of one pound Of con-
centrated feed for each three and one
half pounds of milk COW gives per
day will be found very useful to dairy
men in getting better yields of milk
and in economizing in their feed; and
not only so, but 1t would give a clue
TO the poor producing cows of the
herd and lead to their being supplant-
ed by more profitable animals. Yet
how many are feeding the 1S-pound
COW as much as the 36-pound animal
should have. and the good producer
only as much as the poor one is en-
titled to? Regulation of this matter
Of feeding would not only save feed,
but would increase the production OF
milk and its products, 40 much need

A NEW INVENTION

Joseph Bartosz has opened factory
at the corner of 18th and Mill SITS,
Salem, under the style of Pacific Drap.
er Factory, for the production of his
improved harvesting draper The in-
Yention is a most practical one for far
mers as it entirely eliminates the de-
lay oceasioned by breakage, canvas be-
coming detached from Stats, and the
elogging of the draper by weeds, fern,
straw, etc.
Mr.. BartOsz is a practical farmer
and well understands the requirements
of the craft, Those desiring to avail
themselves of the benefits of his de-
vice should place their orders early as
his present capacity is limited. Exact
measurements giving length of canvas
around rollers, width, etc. should be
furnished, or the draper now in use
sent in with the make of binder on
which it is used.
He welcomes visiting farmers who
desire to learn more of the merits of
an article intended for their special
use.

THE PIEDMONT HIGHWAY

The Piedmont Highway between
Columbia and Newberry is in aho"t
as bad condition as we have ever
seen it since it was first laid out az
the Piedmont Highway 1t needs al
tenticn very mach and practically az
the way from Columbia to the New
berry line. 1t is true that the New
berry end of the road is now the BET
ter part. Even the Richland part for
ii miles that at one time was brag
piece of road is now in bad condition
and needs work.
We went down to Columbia OF
Tuesday via the c.. n. & L. but found
that Mr. Claude Williams had driven
to Columbia with Mr. Harry Blease
and his son Marian Blease, the latter
going to accept position in the
post office. l was offered a seat Or
the return in the car. which I ac-
cepted. Mr.. Williams daughter Gladys
was along and We had pleasant
ride back to Newberry Mr.. Williams
drove carefully and took time to make
the trip so that the ride could be
as comfortable as it is possible to
make a ride over such roads.
TIE crops in that section are look
ing much better than they are in the
vpter section of Newherry. The cot
ton is growing and in most places IS
in fine condition hasi2g been worked
oHt. In one or tw places the grass
was getting the UPPER hand Of cot
ton but this seemed to he the excop.
ton.
The grain crop is being harvested
and there seemed to he more of i
planted than usual and it was very
good. The corn is looking we'll and
there is large crop along the road
il comparison with the other crops.

We drove along home leisurely
and reached the city about 10 o'clock.
The crops as a rule are not as good
as some other sections, and there
seemed to be more places where
there was great and immediate need
