DAIRY
HINTS
GOOD FEED FOR DAIRY COWS
Abundance Of Pasture Grass 10 eest
Where AvaiIable-Some Grain
Often Needed.

A dairy COW will respond to good
feeding and good treatment, perhaps
better than any other farm animal.
Each Individual dairy COW should be
d unit by herself. Unlike other farm
animals. dairy cows cannot be ell
GENTLY fed in a feed lot. as the re-
Quirements for each COW may be dif-
ferent
The best feed for dairy cows Is an
abundance Of pasture grass when that
Is available. A good pasture pro-
vides q balanced ration. Some high
producing cows will require a little
grain As a supplement to pasture.
During the time of the year when a
good pasture Is not available, COW
can be fed efficiently by providing:
/. An abundance of palatable feed;
2, balanced ration; 8, succulent
feed; 4, a moderate temperature In
barn; 8, comfortable surroundings.
A dairy COW Is fed for the follow
ing purposes: 1, For maintaining the
body; 2, to supply material for milk.
8, for development of fetus; 4. for
growth of animal, If immature; 8. at
times to produce gain In weight.
Three general classes Of good ma
terial are required for feeding cows:
1, Protein or heterogeneous material;
2, carbohydrates and fat to supply
heat and energy; 8. ash or mineral
matter.
A well-balanced dairy ration will
contain the above food material In
the proper proportions. In making up
a feed for dairy cows, 1t is usually
most convenient to balance the
roughage and concentrates separately
and then feed all the roughage each
cow will eat and adjust the grain
mixture to the amount of milk or
butterfat produced by the COW.
A good general rule to use as
guide In feeding Is to feed from one
fourth to one-half as much of bal
anced grain mixture per day as the
cow gives milk per day. Cows giving
rich milk usually give less per day,
but need little more grain In pro-
portion to the mllk.-A. c. Baer. Pro-

The pork packer Is said to make use
Of every part Of hog except the squeal

The following describes a useful

the material can be readily procured
for practically nothing at some motor

POULTRY NOTES

Culling the flock reduces the cost
price of eggs and meat.
Chicks that are overfed or under
nourished are, alike, Improbable.
The demand for capons is growing
every year and there is always a mar
ket for them.
Within the past few years ducks
and geese have both been selling at
high enough figures to make them
profitable.
So long as the geese and ducks are
growing rapidly 1t Is not necessary to
feed grain heavily, provided they have
good pasture. Just enough grain to
keep them strong and vigorous is all
that they require.
Never make the mistake Of putting
young chicks on bare cold floor with
out any litter Of any kind.
Sometimes It Is advisable with geese
to make the hens lay about three lay
ings of eggs, and then permit them to
hatch the last eggs and to care for the
young.
Baby chicks will grow very fast

parts cornmeal, one part middllngs and
