Texas Against Scrub Sire
 

Texas has joined the Better sires Better stock" campaign, and some Texans are already whetting their pencils in preparation for writing the obituaries of the countless mongrel males which are destined to walk the gang plank. The Texas plan of scrub eradication is to standardize the work around the county agent, allowing each county agent to disseminate in- formation and formulate plans for the abolition of the scrubs largely as he sees fit in accord with the condi- tions operative in his community. The Texas activities against misfit breed ing animals are typical of those which are extending throughout the south.

ROBERT HARRON BOY

Supports Lillian Gish in New Pic
fure saTrUa Heart SusSiev

Robert Harron as a lanky, long
necked country boy who goes 10 col
lege and becomes a minister, with
wise opinions about selecting a girl
for wife, but hasty and lacking judg-
ment in doing SO, plays the part of a
character familiar to millions in D.
w. Griffith's new Aircraft picture
True Heart SUSIE" which comes to
the Orpheum theatre next Thursday
and Friday.
Even before he leaves for the small
college, his innocent complacency at
being a favor'ite among the girls of the
small community, led him to strut and
council with the confidence and wis
dom only boy at such an age could
assume.
And when he returns from the COL
lege for his vacation, with a new suit,
a moustache, and new Importance in
his carriage; and grandly invites Sus-
lie to attend his royal and triumphal
progress to the village grocery store
in search of a "sody," Mr.. Harron
makes all the world his debtor for one
of the most deep-seated laughs the
screen has ever offered.

THE MANAGEMENT
OF THE DAIRY HERD
PROFESSOR F. R. CARMACK.
FIELD DAIRYMAN OF UNI
VERSITY, TELLS ABOUT 1T

After the selection of the founda-
ton for the herd, the very important
questions of management arise. 1t
is the purpose of this article to give
suggestions on management but just
a word on the Importance of the sell
eection will not be amiss.
It is better to select cows with COW
testing records or, if purebreds are
chosen, the official or semi-official
yearly records should be used I'm
less this can be done, it is gamble
whether one gets good or poor cows.
Heifers or cows that are selected
should be from ancestors with known
production. The number of "boarder"
or improbable cows is surprisingly
large and if one starts with cows of
inferior or unknown production it is
apt to be discouraging.
1t is is not possible to get high pro-
ducers because of high prices and
other conditions, then it is ever so
much more important to weight and
test the milk of the cows, and to pur-
chase sire, to head the herd, that
has high-producing ancestors. Also,
one should remember that the records
of performance of the closeup an
cestors has greater influence than
a good record several generations
removed. 1t is usually stated that
t4the bull is half the herd" because of
the great influence which he has on
the progeny, this being equal to the
sum total Of all the cows in the herd.
Butter fat records must be kept or
there is absolutely no hope for the
average dairyman.
In this brief discussion (volumnes
have been written only the main
points can be considered, and those

will depend on the kinds available all,

These rules will be modified to sui
individual conditions and by the rule
that cows shall be fed all they will
consume without increasing in weight
The analysis of foods and rules for
figuring the balanced rations cannot
be given here because of lack of
space but can be obtained in Univer-
sity of Idaho bulletin No. 1O2, or from
county agents and the extension divi-
sion.
The good herd manager will see
that the cows get plenty of good
water and have access to salt sup
ply.
additional topics presented by Mr..
Cammack as items in herd manage
ment will be presented at later date.

sion by E. B. Hitchcock, soil special
list, on "The Value of Barnyard Man

able than most people think.)

some places she is given shelter anc
care greater than bestowed upon the
family, because of her Importance tc
the well being of those people. Under
natural conditions the dairy COW pro-
duces most when she is contented and
comfortable and has plenty of nutriti-
Gus and succluent food. These con-
ditions should be provided as nearly
as possible, considering expense, etc.
In Idaho this result requires great
variety of treatment, due to climate
and topography. If cold, severe
winters are experienced, then good
barns are necessary and special at
tention must be given to ventilating
system, to insure against tuberculo-
sis, etc. In case, of mild winters, the
open shed system has proven salts
factory. This means provision of
sheds and windbreaks so as to keep
the cows comfortable at all times.

1t is especially important to have
plenty OIL llgHU, LOT HedlCH ana SdIl-
tary reasons. Four square feet of
lighting area per COW are required in
an enclosed barn. The arrangement
will depend upon the individual con-
ditions and personal likes.
Concrete, wood, clay and other
floors are used successfully. Concrete
is most satisfactory (also more ex-
pensive) unless the cows are kept
in the barn over a long period of
time. The concrete should then be
covered with wood or cork or a SINH

/ These figures may seem OverdraWn
| but they are very near to the actua
results obtained by experiment.
/ 1t must be remembered that often
the COW will continue to produce milk
out of proportion to these figures by
robbing her body and injuring her
health The good dairyman will weigh
his cows occasionally, or otherwise
note their condition so as to try to
keep the cows in the desired flesh
and health. He will increase or de-
crease the feed in an attempt to keep
them in normal condition. (Excep-
tions are found in cases of some COWS
that lose weight the first month after
freshening and gain weight when the
foetus is being developed).
The weighing of the feed is very
good practice and this together with
the weight and test of the milk, will
enable the feeder to make the nee
essary adjustments in the feed OF any
individual COW. Needless to say, all
cows should not be fed the same ra-
ton, as some will return a profit on
less food than others, and on differ
ent ration.
A balanced ration is one which sup
plies the different nutrients in the
proportions needed to give the main
tenance ration and in addition the pro-
tein, carbohydrate, and mineral ele-
ments used for milk production, in
quantities which insure sufficient
supply without excess, which would
be passed off in the body refuse. A
balanced ration can be fed from any
feeds which are grown on Idaho
farms. 1t is particularly important
that the dairyman raise all or nearly
all the feeds needed, in order to de-
crease the cost of the ration. A gen
eral rule often followed is this:
l. Feed all the roughage daily that
the COW will eat up clean. By this
term, roughage, is meant alfalfa hay
and corn silage or their substitutes.
Ten to Is pounds of hay and 80 to 40
pounds of silage cover requirements |
Of average cows and conditions.
2. Feed one pound Of grain daily
for every pound of butter lat pro-
duced weekly. Cows giving greater
quantities of milk can be given

more pleasing and less of an irksome

more pleasing and less of an irksom'
task
Feeding When the right housing
conditions are obtained, the next steI
is the feeding and general care of the
herd. For the majority of Idaho
dairymen, this is perhaps the most
vital and important subject because
! of the abnormal feed cost condition
and the direct bearing it has on the
economic results of dairying. This
involves the provision of an abundant
sopply of palatable food at tht least
cost and the supplying of these feeds
in the balanced ration and in amounts
to suit the ability and needs of the
individual cows. The feed is used for
two purposes --maintenance and pro-
duction- also for laying on fat on dry
cows and for growth in young ami
mails, and this food has considerable
bearing on the final cost accounting
of milk production. The first use
made of food must be for mainten-
ance and this will vary from about
40 to 70 per cent of the correct ra-
ton, depending on the individuality
of the COW, ETC. The remainder is the
crucial part, and means the profit or
loss on the individual COW. The mis-
take Ca very common one) is to cut
down the amount of the ration, there
by reducing the profit very rapidly.
The following table illustrates this
point:
In this table the first column gives
the per cent correct ration fed; the
second per cent of ration used for
maintenance; third, per cent of ration
available for production and the last

IDAHO DELEGATES TO
STUDENT CONVENTION
Hope to Send Ten Men to Des Moines,
Iowa, Volunteer Gathering To
Be First Of the Year.

The University of Idaho plans t
send ten delegates if possible to til
Desmoines Student Volunteer Conven
ton, to be held this winter in tina
city. This will be new experience
for Idaho, and Secretary Macpherson
of the Y. M. C. A., who is takinl
charge of the plan for sending repre-
sentatives from idaho, is enthusiastic
over the prospects for the success o.
the idea.
This convention is the eighth Inter
national Convention of the, SUDDEN
Volunteer Movement, and is hello
every four years in some American
city of Importance. Idaho, along with
the other colleges of the west, is al
lowed only certain number of dele
gates who will be sent to DesMoines
for the gathering, which will be from
December 81 to January a. At the
close of the Inland Empire Students
Bible Conference held here last week,
the local boards for both the Y. M. C.
A. and the Y. w. c.. A. gave their
approval to the plan to send Idaho's
allotment of ten representatives to the
conference. AS yet no means of rails
ing the necessary money to defray the
expenses of the delegates has been de-
vised, but that matter, it is felt certain
by those in charge, will be easily over
come.
Those to be sent on the trip will be,
the Y. M. G. A. secretary, one mem
Der of the faculty, and four members
from each the Y. NJ c. A. and the
Y. w. G. A. of the college, yet to be
chosen. There is expected to be over
