DAIRY
POINTS
cow UNDER TEST CONDITION
Animal Produces Sixty Per Cent More
Milk and Butterfat Than
When With Herd.

Why cows under test conditions pro-
duce on the average 60 per cent more
milk and butterfat than those kept un-
der ordinary herd conditions is prob
lem the dairy division, United States
Department Of Agriculture, is still un-
able to solve. In the recent annual re-
port Of the bureau of animal industry,
1t is stated that only 20 per cent of the
increase has been satisfactorily ac-
counted for. Five per cent was due to
keeping cows in box stalls compared
with stanchions.
Other experiments conducted on the
government farm at Beltsville,. Md.
show that with cows of average pro-
duction irregular milking was not
detrimental to milk and butterfat pro-
duction and that the cost Of production
is increased when cows are exercised
to the extent Of being driven three
miles day. However. exercise was
found to increase slightly the fat con-
tent.
A considerable number Of calves
were fed with a nipple as compared
with drinking from a pail. Results
showed no advantage in using nipples.
Pectin pulp. a by-product in the
manufacture Of pectin from apple
pomace was found to be less palatable.
and less valuable as dairy feed than
beet pulp.
The use of molasses In the dairy ra-
tion is not justifiable. the government
report shows, for group of cows that
were given molasses in addition to the
regular ration produced slightly less
than the group that received the regu-
lar ration only.
A 20-year experiment, now In prog
ress at Manhattan, Kan. will deter
mine to what extent milk production
can be developed without sacrificing
desirable beef type. The work was
started in 1915 and Shorthorn cattle
are being used.

PAsTURED ON SWEET CLOVER

Trouble From BIoattno.

Four cows, receiving approximately

clover was 81 to AZ inches high, and
another portion yielded 2.75 tons Of

sHIRRED EGGS ALWAYS GOOD
Combinations With Bread Crumbs,
Rice or starchy Cereal Make
Delicious Dishes.

Combinations of eggs with bread
crumbs, rice, or some starchy cereal
to give body to the dish are always
good. says the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. Fill the baking
dish half full of hot boiled rice. Break
ak eggs and carefully drop them in
the rice, taking care not to break the
yolks. Pour cubful of cheese sauce
over the eggs and rice and bake in u
moderate oven until the whites Of the
eggs are set.
To make the cheese sauce: Melt
one tablespoonful of butter and stir
into it one tablespoonful Of -four, one
teaspoonful Of salt and one-eighth tea
spoonful Of white pepper. Add one
:upful Of cold milk, and stir over the
flame until thick and creamy. Add

SERVE EGGS WITH TOMATOES
Attractive Way Is Suggested by De-

Cooked in Cups.

When fresh tomatoes are in season
an attractive way Of serving eggs is
to cook them In tomato cups, suggests
the United States Department Of Agri-
culture.
Select the desired number of good
sized tomatoes, allowing one to each
person. Cut off the blossom end,
scoop out the seeds and stand the to-
matoes In baking pan in the oven
until they are partly cooked. Put
one-half teaspoonful Of butter and a
dustlng of salt and pepper into the
bottom Of each and break in one egg.

DAIRY HINTS

Everything about the calf should be
scrupulOusly clean.
Quarters must be clean and dry,
with plenty of bedding.
A scrub bull is worth something to
the butcher, nothing to you.
Good cows may be obtained by pur-
chase and by breeding and testing.
Marks for Identification should be
plain, without disflguring the animal.
Stanchons save milk and prevent
the calves from sucking one another.
Good ventilation Is absolutely neces-
sary to the health and comfort Of the
cows.
Are you feeding your dairy cows for
production or for just keeping them
alive?
A man should not be satisfied with
cows that produce only 200 pounds of
butterfat.
Calf diseases are largely the result
of filth and carelessness. Prevention
is cheapest and best.
Cows are greatly creatures Of habit.
and regularity Of feeding at all times
is essential for best results.
It costs about as much to raise a
calf Of inferior breeding, as one with
genuine dairy characteristics.

Two Weeks Old.

When the calf is two weeks old, 1t
can be gradually changed from a
ration of whole milk to one Of
skim milk by substituting an equal
amount of skim milk for each por-
ton Of whole milk removed. The
plan of substitution Is based on the
supposition that the farmer can secure
a limited amount Of skim milk. A
complete substitution can be secured
In week or ten days. When this
substitution has been completed, a
