GIVE cows BALANCED RATION
Protein, Carbohydrates and Fats Are
Used by Animals in Quite Differ
ent Proportions.

In feeding dairy cows the best re-
suits are always secured and the most
economic use Of feeds is obtained by
providing a balanced ration. Careful
studies have shown that the three
classes of nutrients in feeds, proteins,
carbohydrates, and fats, are used by
different animals In quite different pro-
portions. A ration that supplies these
nutrients in the proportion that the
animal requires, Is called a balanced
ration. When enough of each of these
classes is fed there is no waste, caused
by feeding an unnecessary amount of
M class of nutrients. Protein is used
by the animal chiefly to form the mus
cles or lean flesh of the body, the hair,
the horns, the hOofs and the casein in
the milk. The carbohydrates and the
fat are a source of energy in the body.
as we'll as that Of the body fat and the
fat In the milk.
The compromising Of a balanced ra-
ton Is not difficult If one has at hand
tables which show the digestible nutri-
ents Of the various feeds. Many farm
ers, however, obtain good results by
more simple methods, and have found
the following rules useful:
l. Feed all the roughage that the
COW will eat up clean.
2 If the roughage contains eight to
ten pounds of leguminous hay, such as
clover, cOwpea or alfalfa, mix the
grain ration so that IT will contain
from ii TO 10 per cent of protein. If
the roughage does not contain a large
proportion of leguminous hay, but is
composed largely of corn silage, corn
stalks, and timothy hay, mix the grain
ration to contain 20 to "a per CEN Of
protein.
3. To cows such as Jerseys or Guern-
seys, giving milk testing A per cent in
butterfat or higher, feed the grain mix
ture at the rate of one pound to every
three pounds of milk produced. To
cows giving milk which tests 3h per
cent In butterfat or less, feed one
pound of the grain mixture to every
three and one-half to four pounds of
milk produced.
e. IL the COW Is in poor flesh and is
giving a good flow of milk, she will us
ually respond to heavier feeding and
the grain ration should be increased.

cows, will be sent free on application

For centuries GOLD MEDAL HARLEM
Oil has been a standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and

enter your system through the blood and
stomach are not entirely thrown out by
the kidneys and bladder you are doomed.

water. This treatment controls scab

COUNCILS OF DEFENSE
TO Be DISCONTINUED

Councils Of Defense throughout Wis
consin will soon be disbanded as the
work they were organized to do has
been accomplished and the war is
ended. 1t is believed Gov. Philip will
make specific recommendation to the
legislature that councils of defense are
no longer necessary, and that the leg
islature will make no further appro-
priatiOn to carry on their work.
Il intend to reduce councils of de-
tense to mere skeleton organization, ~
said Gov. Philip. 1--WE should not
spend money for such activities unless
there is something to do which would
produce practical results.
The only class of people 1 know of
who should receive immediate atten-
ton are the women who took the place
of men and are being dismissed.

referred to, does not present any seri-

STUFFED GEESE
PRESENT SEASON
WILL Be SCARCE
High Poultry Prices Keeps Demand
For Heavy Birds Down To a
Minimum-Plenty of Stall
Fed Stock.

The demand for stuffed geese this
season is not nearly as great as in
former years and in consequence the
stuffed goose market will fall off
greatly. The season is now at hand and
the marketing will be done the week
before Christmas. The prevailing high
poultry prices is given as the cause
for this condition. Take for instance
geese which will average Is pounds
The local buyer this year will be COM
PEELED to pay about II cents over the
average, making the geese cost AZ
cents a pound. BY the time they reach
the markets of the country they will
cost the consumer at least SO cents a
pound.
Some stuffng is being done, how
ever, and some big geese will doubt
less be marketed here, but the number
will be lessened and in their place will
be marketed a larger quantity than
usual of Stalled geese, really the
geese which made Watertown famous
and are on the bills of fare of every
dining car and large hotel in the
country.
Prices will range about the same as
at Thanksgiving, it is said, with the
exception that geese may be a little
Off at the start as there was a big
Thanksgiving supply and the New
York market fell off at the close.
However, with butter at 76 cents a
pound and eggs at 60 or better, the
poultry price bids fair to remain
about as high as it was at Thanks
giving time.
