RATIoMs TO PRODUCE MILK
Possible Amount Of Feed Goes
to Supply Milk.

| prepared by the United STATES Depart
ment Of Agrfculture.)
Many owners of cows are confront
ed with the problem of supplying eco
| nOmical milk-producing ratiOns for
their cows. Under these conditions
there is a strong temptation to cut
down on the amount given to each
animal. The total quantity of feed
must be sufficient, and if the concen-
trates are cut down, more and better
roughage must be supplied.
The reduction of feed below GER
tain amount alawys means reduction
In the amount of milk the COW pro-
duces. There may be exceptional
cases where the owner is feeding more
than is necessary for the maximum
milk production, but the greatest dan
ger is the other extreme. The cow
requires certain amount of feed to
maintain her body. The amount she
receives above this maintenance ration
goes either to meat or milk produc-
ton. The COW should be fed so that
the greatest possible amount of feed
goes to actual milk production. A
few simple rules are offered to this
end.
1. Highly specialized cows, which
never carry excessive fat and are per-
'sistent mixers, being dry only a
month or so, should receive all they
will consume. With such cows econ
omy in feeding is equivalent to liberal
feeding.
2. With general-purpose cows, or
those which tend to beefiness, the
dairyman must adjust his feed strict
ly to the milk produced, or he will
find his feed going to form fat instead
of milk. Cows of this nature, the
milk from which contains about per

of the situation promised wealth,

cent of butterfat, should receive what
roughage they will clean up and one
pound of grain for every three to three
and a half pounds of milk produced.
When the milk tests about 31a per
cent, the cow should receive one pound
of grain for four to four and half
pounds of milk.
3. Dry cows should receive feed
enough to insure their being in good,
thrifty producing condition when
they freshen. Poor cows drop weak,
puny calves and will not produce prop
erly, as they have to use a part Of the
feed to build up the body.
4. Cows of beefy nature should
not be fed enough to make them ex-
cessively fat when dry, as the dairy
man does not receive returns from
such feed, and excessive fleshiness
tends to sterility. On the other hand
there is little danger of overlooking
highIy-specialized dairy cows which
are not dry for more than one month
to six weeks, as during this period any
flesh put on and not essential to bod
ily vigor will be turned into milk when
they freshen.

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for IN
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim. that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle OF
Swamp Root by Parcels Post. Address

ATTENTION TO YOUNG BULLS
When Six Months Of Age They Should
Be Separated From Females-
Don't Retard Growth.

After the bull is six months Of age
he should be kept apart from the fe-
males. If well grown and vigorous, he
may be used for occasional service
when ten months Of age. It is safer
plan, however, not to use the young
bull until he is twelve months Of age
so that his growth will not be retarded
One rule to follow regarding the num-
Der of cows with which a young buil
may be mated Is that the bull may
