WATER FOR DAIRY COWS

The dairy COW needs larger
amount of water than does any other
farm animal The reasons for this
are obvious. The cow is PRODUCING
milk which consists of about 81 PEI
cent water. She also needs wE.er to
carry on the digestion of the large
amount of feed which she eats. The
cow on dry feed uses more water than
one on green feed If the amount of
water is insufficient, the milk pro-
duction is bound to decrease.
An ordinary cow producing an aver,
age flow of milk requires about 75
pounds or nine gallons of water per
day. An exceptionally large cow, OF
one producing an exceptionally large
amount OF milk, requires more, while g
small cow may get along with con.
siderably less. In addition to the
above amount, a COW gets about 3 gal
Ions or 25 pounds in her feed as .
by-product of the digestive process.
The subject Of water for dairy
COWS is often given too little thought.
Too many cows are expected to ebtair
their drinking water through hole
in the ice, from distant creek OF
from a stagnant pool. In such cases
the cow is likely to drink less water
than will satisfy her needs. Water i
one of the most plentiful of all mater
ials and vet is often the limiting
factor in milk production.
The more frequently COW has
access to water, the nearer she come
to fulfilling her needs for water A
the South Dakota experiment station
cows watered twice or three times
day drank almost 40 per cent NOR
water than those watered only one

icians will lose no time in getting in
light with the people and will desist
from trying to regulate and hamstring
everything under the sun.
But the railroads are coming back.
For instance, in January, 1922, the
Chicago and Northwestern showed
'arnings for the month of $151, ,304,
while for the same month this year
the earnings were $756,96l. There is
not large railroad system in the
country but what is showing marked
signs Of improvement, and that better
days are in store for our railroads is
admitted by all. 1t has been years
since the railroads have placed such
heavy equipment orders, and many of
the roads are beginning to make prep
arations to build extensions. The
Burlington, it is announced, will this
year build q $2,50O,0O0 branch road in
southeastern Montana, and the North
ern Pacific is said to be making plans
to build similar line near Forsyth,
Montana. Other lines are being
planned by ether roads, and no doubt
some Of these days the Northwestern
will take heart and will also begin
extending their lines, for if they do
not, other, more progressive railroads
will enter this territory and provide
is with the sorcly needed transporta-
ion that is now blocking the full de-
velopment of this truly rich country.
The construction Of the first steel
bridge to span the Missouri river, by
the state, to be built between Gregory
and Charles Mix counties is to be
built strong enough to carry rail-
road. and there is no doubt but what
he Milwaukee or some other rail
road will make good use Of this new
bridge to tap this rich Rosebud section
and tie up the east and west river
country.
In closing We might say that this is
to all intents and purposes Northwest
,rn territory. The people here have
waited for ten long years for this ex-
tension and have waited patiently.
Mr.. Finley does not give us much
hope Of relief in the near future, but
this attitude on the part Of the North
western officials is not going to be any
barrier to our prosperity and develop
-ncnt. If the Northwestern wants to
use this rich territory, let them con-
tinue their present attitude, and somc
fine day they will wake up to the fact
that they waited too long and some
,ther road will be hauling the rich
harvests from this section to market.

day and produced about 20 per cent
more milk as result.
Cold water is not conducive to
high milk yields. When q COW is
forced to drink ice water out of doors
with the thermometer at 30 degrees
below zero, she will not drink ss much
as she could use to advantage.
Furthermore, she must use the heat
OF her body, and therefore, some Of
her feed to raise the temperature Of
the water to her body temperature.
1t is far more economical to burn
wood, coal or cobs in tank heater
to warm the water than it is to burn
high priced feeds inside of the dairy
cow. Heating water inside of COW
uses feed that ought rightfully to go
to milk production.
Inside warming arrangements arc
paying investments. The ideal way is
to have a watering bucket at each

barn where cows may be turned loose,
one or two at time, if far better than
turning them out on cold windy day.
Such an arrangement would not cost o
great deal and would more than pay
ior itself in a season.
Fresh running streams are all right
as source of drinking water for cows
during the summer, but stagnant pools
are to he avoided. The cows do not
like such water, will probably not
drink enough to satisfy their require
ments, and when they wade through
such places, germs and filth may stick
to their flanks and udders only to fall
off and taint the milk at milking time
A spring, running stream of fresh
well water are by far the most salts
factory supplies of water for the sum-
mer months.
There is a popular belief that cold
water and cold barns raise the percent
of butterfat in the milk. Experiments
show that there is no foundation for
such belief. On the centrary, they
show that there results reduction IN
the milk flow which invariably lowers
the amount of butterfat. Four cows
at the South Dakota experiment sta
tion were given water Of varying
temperatures with the following aver
ape results.

age result!

1t will be seen that barns ard ---.grg 80 s.
above 70 degrees Fahrenheit result in
the highest production of butterfat
and that temperatures below 60 de-
9rees Fahrenheit cause noticeable
decrease. The difference is .13 pound
butterfat in one day. For ten cows it
would be 1.30 pounds per day and SO
pounds per month, worth in winter
about $3.50 or about $3.50 for the
three coldest winter monthrs. Tho
expense of making the barn warm and
installing some simple watering de-
vice should not amount to anywhere
near that much and could be used
year after year.
The water supply is one Of the mos
important and yet often one Of T.
most neglected of all details connec
With dairying. A warm, inside sup

water during the summer are ess

President Finley complains bitterly
of the interference with the railroad
business by politicians OF the present
dav. and his complaint, to our mind,
is not without some merit. 1t was
AWAY back in 1890 when the populist
party came into existence, that it be-
came quite the fad to lambast the rail
roads, and this sort of propaganda has
been continued by the politicians OF
our land ever since, and the result
is that. thev have succeeded in so
regulating" the railroads of. the
country that they have about "regu-
lated" them to the point of wrecking
them and the experiment OF govern
ment operation during the war almost
put the railroad system OF the country
on the hummer proper.
Gradually. however, we think We
see signs of returning sanity among
the great common people regarding
our railroads, and once they begin
to let their wishes be known the poll
