IMPROBABLE ANIMALS SOLD
Nebraska Live Stock Owner Disposes
Of Scrub Bull and Five Cows
to Improve Herd.

II disposed Of one scrub bull and
five COWS that were not profitable"
With this explanation a livestock
owner in Dodge county, Nebraska, en-
rolled in the Better Sires-Better
Stock" movement which provides for
purebred sires in all classes Of domes-
tic animals kept.
A purebred Holstein bull now heads
his herd of 25 grade cattle and the
Duroc swine on the farm are all pure
bred. Horses. sheep, goats and poul-
try complete the kinds Of live stock
kept. While these are not purebred,
they will be improved by breeding to
purebred sires only.
The experience Of livestock owners
that scrub sires are Improbable sup.
ports the results of numerous official
experiments which show the superior
ity Of good purebred sires owe all
other kinds.

PROPER FEEDING
RULES FOR CALF
Feed and Management Will De-
pend Greatly on Time of Year
Animal Was Dropped.
GIVE GRAIN and RoUGHAGES
Standard Ration May Be Made by Us
ing Corn, Oats and Bran Of Equal
Parts by Weight-Pasture 10
Most Essential,

The feed, care and management
which the high-class beef calf should
receive after it is weaned will depend
largely on the time Of year it vas
dropped. A spring calf should be fed
differently from one dropped in the
fall. 1t is assumed that in either case
however, the principal part of the
calf's feed for the first few months
was its mothers milk. In addition to
the milk, It should have been fed grain
so that at weaving time it would be
getting from two to six pounds, de-
pending upon the age of the calf and
time of year weaned. with q little sill
age and a liberal amount of hay as
we'll.
If the calf has not been taught to
eat grain before 1t was weaned it
should be taught at once. Begin by
feeding it as one does for the calf be-
fore weaving. The amount Of feed,
however, may be increased more rap
idly than with the unweaned calf. In
a month. or six weeks after 1t is weaned
it should be eating from two to three
, pounds Of grain with six pounds of
silage and from two to three pounds
Of clover hay, with a small amount
Of other roughages like slower or straw
in addition, unless sufficient pasture is
available.
A standard grain ration for the calf
may be made by using corn, oats and
bran, equal parts by weight, or corn
five parts and oats or bran three parts
by weight, with n part of linseed meal
added to both unless the ration seems
too laxative. 1t is expected that in
many cases all these feeds will not
be available. 1t will be necessary then
to substitute other feeds. The follow
ing substitutions are recommended:
Feed. Substitutes.
Corn.............Barley, kafir. milo. oats
or other feeds high ir

Oats.......Bran. ground oats
coarse middlings.

eating on such feeds. After it becomes
used to them it may Craze with safety.
Rules Of Feeding.
There are many things to remember
in feeding the calf. They may be
called rules Of feeding and should be
carefully followed:
l. Provide a variety of feeds at all
times, If possible. 1t is easier to sup
ply the proper amounts of the desired
nutrients which the calf needs, IL sew.
eral different feeds are used. The ra-
ton will also be more palatable.
2. Do not make sudden changes in the
feeds used or in the amounts given.
If it becomes necessary to change
feeds from, say, clover to alfalfa hay,
feed part clover and part alfalfa for
a few days. Gradually reduce the
amount Of clover and at the same time
Increase the alfalfa.
8. Do not overfeed the calf. Feed
as much grain as it will clean up in
so minutes and wish it had just a lit
tic more Feed left in the trough to
be breathed over is worse than wasted.
If any remains it should be removed
and less given the next time. Diges-
tive disorders occur from feeding too
much rather than too little.
4. Do not underfeed the calf. It
should make q continuous gain. II it
does not grow each day the feed. given
it is about the same as wasted. 1t new
er pays to starve a calf. In fact, the
calf does not begin to pay for feed I'M
til 1t is given more than enough to
make some gain.
S. Do not annoy or disturb the calf
unnecessarily. The fattening or grow
Ing calf should be kept as quiet as pos
sible. 1t requires more feed to keep it
growing while standing or moving
about than while lying down at rest.
6. Do not feed moldy, musty or
spoiled feeds. To do so may cause Sc
rious digestive disorders. All hays
