Two seasons of eating this morsel

DAIRY
FIND RELATIVE. VALUE OF
DIFFERENT DAIRY FEEDS

Feed stuffs as rule are divided
into concentrates and .roughages,
says the dairy department, North Da-
: kota Agricultural College, in discuss
ing the relative value Of different
dairy feeds. The concentrates are
grains and factory by-products, oats,
corn, barley oil meal, which contain
/. little crude, fiber and are highly di-
gestible. The roughages are bulky
material like hay7and silage and con-
tain considerable fiber.
Corn is valuable chiefly on account
Of its /. carbohy ydrates; although 1t
contains about 10 per cent Of pro-
tein, other sources Of this material
usually are cheaper. 1t is deficient
in mineral matter 1t should not be
fed alone to the dairy cow as the,
only concentrate; however, it is an
excellent dairy feed in combination
with other feeds. Corn and cob
meal is valuable in the dairy ration
because it supplies bulk and allows
more thorough digestion Of the grain.
Oats contain one pound of pro.
tein to six Of carbohydrates, which
in itself is a balanced grain, ration.
No grain is better for milk produc-
ing COWS or cows about to freshen.
1t is for supplying the unborn calf
with nutrients for growth. 1t should
be ground If it can be done on the
farm.
Wheat compares in feeding value
with corn, but is little fed because Of
its price.
Wheat bran is high In protein, ash
and carbohydrates, but. its market
price usually prohibits its use. It
has good effect upon the system,
but it is advisable to. feed it only
to COWS before and after freshening,
and young growing stock. Mid
dlings are not palatable or easily di-
gestible.
Barley can be used to supplement
corn, and should be rolled or prefer
ably ground.

Coach Exendine of the w. S. G..

three are developing fast in this re-
spect, however, and by the close Of
the season we will, l feel sure, be
strong in the very thing we have felt
our weakness in.
Howard Slater of Deer Park is a
good man wherever you put him. l
am trying to locate the best man for
each position, but 1 have come to the
conclusion that there is a lot of
difference between linemen, and as
we need more weight in the back
field expect to use Slater there in
stead of at tackle, his old position.

MANY of the linemen are show
ing up very nicely, and except for
want Of experience our new men of
the string play as good game as
those we have been using thus far
At ends our men have a general
idea how to play the game, but you
have to have experience in actual
play, to make really good end. Pete
Kramer Of Cotton has developed into
an excellent end, and SO has Cecil
Keller of Wenatchee-a fast man,
but lacking in weight. l think Kel-
ler is going to develop into very
good end before the close of the
season. A dislocation of his elbow
has kept him out of play some Oliver

SUITABLE AGE OF DAIRY

= y g. n :
y The proper age Of heifers sfor first
calving is always a fruitful source
Of discussion among dairymen. One
group points to the necessity of prop
er physical development before the
COW begins on it's very arduous task
of yielding milk through ten months
or more of the year. The other side
holds that late calving gives the beef
qualities in the COW time to develop
and encourages tendency toward
coarseness in the dairy animal,
In the terms of ordinary dairying,
the question turns on which system,
in the long run, makes the most
money. Does the production of the
mature COW make up for the extra
feed put into her during the nom
earning period? Does the added year
or two of production in early life Of
the early calver balance the possible
loss in vitality and in longtime aver
age production?
l An experiment that has been con-
Quoted at the Connecticut experiment.
Station throws an interesting light
on this question. Ten COWS were in
cluded in the experiment. Five
calyed at the average rate of two
years and one and four tenths
months. The other five averaged
three years and one month at calying
time.
In the first 1actation period, the
late calvers produced at nearly dou-
BILE the rate of the early calvers.
During the second lactation period
the late calvers made record Of
60 per cent greater than the early
calvers. In the third period the
early calvers made about the same
record as the late calvers.
One interesting point about the re-
suits is that it was not until they
reached the third lactation period
that the early calvers made ais good
a record as the late calvers made in
their first lactation period. The late
calvers, aged three years and one
month at the time of freshening,
made 1923 pounds of milk and 443
pounds of milk and 467 pounds of fat.
The early calvers, aged four years,
nine and one-half months at the
third freshening, averaged 1852
puonds of milk and 467 pounds Of fat.
All the COWS in this test were of
the same general breeding and all
received the same care. The num-
bers involved are too small and the
time covered too short to warrant
any positive conclusion. 1t does
seem, however, that late calving has
sound ground for being considered
good commercial dairy practice.

PACT PROBLEMS.
Arizona Does not Require
Federal Permits to
Build Dams.

Regarding the rights of ripar-
ian owners, the State Miner has
hunted up a few authorities
which may be of Importance in
relieving the anxieties of a min
ority who have got the notion
that in order to get full benefit
of the resources of the Colorado
river, Arizona must ratify the
pact. The position is erroneous
and misleading to those who
give the subject only casual con-
sideration.
The right of a riparian owner
is a vested right which cannot
be taken away even by the state
without compensation. Bra d :
shaw VS.. Duluth, So Mimi, 5053
N. w. 1866.
High line canals may be con-
structed by riparian, municipality
owners, or the state, but cannot
be diverted without reparation.
The public has a right in re-
claimed lands.
The right to maintain a dam
cannot be acquired by prescrip-
ton except as against upper RI
parian owners. Swan VS.. Munich
IS, MINI. 500; 81 N. w. 1922; go
am. Reports, 35 L. A. 748.
Statutory permission is neces-
sary to authorize erection of a
dam. If the character is such
that it does not interfere with
navigation land the Colorado has
not officially been declare un-
navigable) riparian owners have
TO place a dam in the stream
without permission. Ryan VS..
Beown, Is Mich. 1856. T h e
statutes giving states leave to
erect a dam not necessarily re-
quires consent of the federal
government. Wis. River Imp.
Co. VS.. Lyons, 80 Wis. 81. Au-
thority to build a dam from state
Legislature is complete defense
against suit.
Thus it may be seen that RI
parian owners land Arizona is a
riparian in fee simple) may erect
dams without limit, where same
is not an obstruction to naviga-
tion and in said construction she
is not liable to upper riparian
owners.
