REST PERIOD FOR DAIRY cows

an animal-like taste, or may be even
salty or bitter. For this reason, and
because the udder and other tissues
vital to maximum milk production
should have an opportunity for rest
before a new period Of lactation be-
gins, all milk cows should be dried
up" at least n month before par
turition is due. This is best accom-
plished by gradually stopping milking
and reducing the amount Of feed.

DA INR
FEED GRAIN TO MILK COWS
About 20 Per Cent More Milk Is Sc.
cured When Concentrates Are Fed
TO Animals on Pasture.

The question Of whether milk COWS
should be given feed while they are
running on pasture depends on the
cost Of the pasture and extra feed,
says Prof. w. L. Fowler of Oklahoma
A. and NJ. college at Saltwater. AS a
rule, COWS will give about 20 per cent
more milk when they are fed a good
ration of concentrates in addition to
pasture, but the cost Of the concen-
trated feeds is generally about as
much as the value of the increased
milk. Heavy producing cows; that Is,
COWS that produce four gallons of milk
n day, should have some supplement
tary grain feed. / would suggest a
combination of ground corn or kafir
four parts, wheat bran two parts and
cottonseed meal n part. The amount
of this that should be fed in connec-
ton with the pasture depends upon
the state of flesh of the COW and the
amount Of milk that she is producing.
"A ~fOur-gallon cow should have about
four or five pounds Of grain in addi-
ton to good pasture.
The per cent Of butterfat in milk
cannot be changed to any extent by
the kind Of feed that a cow eats. The
amount of fat in the cows milk is
determined by the breeding.
For a winter feed, ] would suggest
alfalfa hay ard silage for the rough
age, and the same grain combination
as mentioned above for the concen-
trates. Feed about thirty pounds of
silage per head per day and all the
alfalfa hay the COW will clean up
well. Feed n pound Of the grain
mixture per head per day for each
three pounds of milk produced.
The question of how long a cow can
test and still be profitable depends
upon the amount of milk that she pro-
duces. Many Holstein cows are prof
liable for butterfat production even
when they do not test more than 3
per cent butterfat. This is true be-

RUSSIAN GERMAN CONFERENCE MAY
 BE GOING AGAIN
Republican A. p. Leased WireI

LONDON, Jan. 16.-There was no definite word either from Berlin or Petrograd today throwing new light on the crisis in Berlin as affecting the est-Litovsk peace negotiations and the statement of Baron Von dem BuscheH eHaddenhausen, under-secre- tary for foreign affairs, that no fresh instructions have been sent to the Ger man secretary of foreign affairs, Dr. Richard von kuehlmann, would seem to indicate that there is no intention of receding from the German attitude of refusing to evacuate any territory oc- cupied in Russia
 Some of the German papers an nounce that negotiations have been re- sumed, but there is no confirmation. The press organs of both political groups in Germany claim victory in the von Ludendorff-von Kuehlmann con- troversy from which it may be as sumed that no important change of policy has issued as a result of the crown councils.

FL PASO, Jan. 16.-John Wilson and John W. She'll soldiers Of a cavalry regiment stationed at Doug las, AriZ., are ih the county jail here charged with the murder of P. E. Burke, automobile driver, near Ro- deo, \. NJ. The men were captured early today in a car of a Southern Pacific freight train which had just pulled in from the west. The body of Burke was found Tuesday about five miles from Rodeo. According to the story told in justice court by Wilson, the men engaged Burke to drive them from Douglas to Rodeo, which is on the Arizona New Mexico state line, and where Wilson claims the chauffeur agreed to procure some liquor for them. The chauffeur failed to procure the liquor and later dispute over the amount due him occurred. Wilson says he shot Burke when the latter reached for his kip pocket The body of the murdered man was thrown from the car and the soldiers drove to the Southern Pacific train and rode to Fl Paso. Officers from this city, who had been advised of the murder, stopped and searched the train fifty miles west of Fl Paso, but the men were not found until the train reached the yards here.
 The soldiers expressed satisfaction at being caught by the civil instead of the military authorities and both said they were willing to go back to New Mexico without the formality of extradition. Shell is from Utica, | N. Y, and has been in the army a year. Wilson enlisted in Penhsyl- vania last May.

 January F to q has been designated as Freight Moving Week." and while word reaches Phoenix a little late, there is still five days in which to get the decks cleared before the increase goes into effect.
 The government urges the railroads, federal state, and municipal authori- ties, and the public to make every pos sble effort to clear up the freight con- gestion.
 Comparative figures will be made by the State Council of Defense showing the number of cars received in Phoenix each day and the number of cars re- leased as against the same days of the week previous.
 Every consignee of freight is urged to work double time if necessary and make this a record for releasing freight cars in Phoenix.

The speaker presented tabu- lated facts showing that owing to the lack of shipping facilities for the transportation of beef products to Europe and the immense accumu- lation of frozen meat in storage, an amount equal to nearly 150 per ce1.t of the total export of fresh beef to Europe in the first 10 months of 1917, that on the basis of sound economies, beef should be excluded from the meatless day until shipping facilities are procured to relieve the present congested condition.

THE BEST TIME
TO CUT ALFALFA

There is only one time to cut alfalfa.
One can tell nothing by it's blossom or
its height, but must bend his back and
get down on his knees to see if new
shoots are coming. If any new shoots
appear and several little buds are seen
at the bottom of the plant, then cut it.
If it is allowed to grow a few days
after these appear the second crop is
reduced by clipping off the ends of the
new shoots.
Oftentimes great mistake is made
by the farmers in curing alfalfa. They
wonder why the leaves all fall off and
the stems become like sticks. It is
just because it has been left out in the
sun so long that all the moisture is
evaporated, and instead of having a
nice rich green color it is white. 1t is
not so palatable to the dairy COW or
whatever animal you may give it to.
If you want sweet, clean alfalfa hay,
which every animal is fond of, even to
the chickens, cure it right Don't let
it bleach in the sun, but put it up when
it still contains some Of it's sap, and
leave it in the cock several days.
Oftentimes covers are used, this being
a very fine practice and protects the
hay by shredding the water, thus pre-
venting bleaching in case of heavy
rain.

RECRUITING IN STATE -.>
TAKES A SLUMP
Change in Draft Age Limits Expected.
From 10 to FL years and From
81 to 40 years of age.

Despite most valiant efforts to keep
the number up to the usual thousand
mark at least, it was unavailing.
Army recruiting slumped off during the
month of July almost fifty per cent.
Major Yost attributes the slump to the
fact that urgent calls for harvest hands
from all sections of the country and
the "Work or Fight order have sent
thousands of men to the farms. The
slump has affected states west of here
to an even greater extent than it has
Minnesota.
All signs point to change in the
draft age limits as soon as Congress
reconvenes next Month. The concensus
of opinion is that the ages will be
lowered as we'll as raised and will in
all probability require the registration
of men from 10 to 81 years and from
81 to 40 years of age
The victorious advance of American
troops on the western front has done
much to stir the fighting spirit Of
Young America and the greater proper
ton of men enlisting at the present time
are men under the draft age limit.
Men under 81 years must present sat
isfactory evidence to establish their age
before they will be accepted.
