The problems involved in winter
feeding are usually distinctly different

of summer feeding, is not available.
Broadly speaking, there are two fac
tors involved in this problem, first, to
satisfy the needs Of the COW and, sec
ond, to suit the pocketbook. The COW
must have an ample supply of feed
Of a ralatable nature, and this feed
must be supplied at price which will

mans, charges, if saved, will consti-
tute q good profit for the feeder. 'Chis
is especially true of roughages. Such
feeds are bulky and in most cases must
be baled at a considerable cost; the
freight rates also are much greater in
prolsortjon to the nutrients contained
than OF the grains.
When land is high in price and the
markets for dairy products are good, it
is often impracticable to grow all the
feeds on the farm In such cases ar
ransements first should be made to
grow the roughage, on account OF the
high cost of Transporting these feeds.
In most cases the prime object of the
farm under such conditions will be to
supply the greatest possible quantity
Of roughage.
1t is q difficult problem to provide
system Of winter feeding Of roughage
which will make the best use of home
grown roughage and at the same time
insure full production.
In addition to containing the proper
nutrients in the right proportion, part
of the ration should be of succulent
nature. 1t is extremely difficult, il not
impossible, to keep COWS in full produc-
ton throughout the winter without
some succulent feed. There are two
chief sources Of succulent feed for
winter feeding-silage and roots. OF
these, silage is in almost universal use
by commercial dairymen. While al
most any gree, crop may be
used for silage, the heavy yields
Of corn, as compared with other
crops, and it's comparative ease OF
handling, together with its keeping
qualities, make it the leading silagc
crop. Where the cost Of land and the
prices of dairy products are high, and
the system of farming of necessity is
intensive, it is questionable whether
the dairyman should consider any 9th
er si]age crop.

THINK 1T OVER.

Now that we have had that much
craved-for rain which has proved so
good for late potatoes, and pastures
are much improved in consequence, and
corn will be good crop, if Jack Frost
keeps off, the people of this vicinity
have an opportunity for contentment
and to 20 to fairs and enjoy themselves.
We suggest, however, that it may be
well to devote little time to thinking
over the candidates up for office--the
high and the low.
Here's our way of thinking We've
had enough from out the Democratic
pot of inefficiency to last at least a
quarter of a century. The so-called
Third Party Progressives has little to
offer other than criticism and promises
of what is next TO impossible. To fall
back on the grand old and reliable Re.
pubiicans seems the only sensible thing
to do and avoid cause for regret.
