Comparison of Feeds
for Milk Production
Result of Trials Made by
Iowa Agricultural College.

A summary on "A Comparison Of
Roughages for MIX Production" pub
lished by the Iowa State College Of
Agriculture, has the following sum
mary. N
The trials reported appear to indi-
cate that;
]. The use of corn fodde, instead
OF corn silage reduces milk production
SIX per cent and fat production three
per cent.
2. When the value of dry matter in
silage was worth 66 cents per 100
pounds that in corn fodder was worth
32A cents.
8. With silage valued at $3.50 per
ton, an acre of corn yielding eight tons
OF green feed and converted into
silage will yield $50 worth Of feed.
whereas, If converted into fodder the
value of the crop will be reduced to
$16.21 per acre.
A When timothy hay is used to re-
place alfalfa hay in a good dairy era-
ton the production Of milk and butter
fat is reduced seven per cent.
8 5. With alfalfa hay at SIS per ton
timothy hay is worth SO cents per ton
for feeding producing COWS.
8. When corn fodder and timothy
hay are introduced in ration in
place of corn silage and alfalfa hay
there Is a decrease - is per cent In
milk and IA per cent in fat production.
Z. When the two poor roughages,
corn fodder and timothy hay, are fed
together, this combination gives to
them slightly higher value indlvld-
ually than where one is fed with a
good roughage, but good production or
economical returns from the feeds cam
not be obtained.
s. Corn silage. and a lcgume hay
(alfalfa) are the best roughages for
dairy cattle, while corn fodder and
timothy hay are poor.
8. II the corn crop ls all to be fed
to the cows 1t should be put in the
silo. On the dairy farm hays such as
timothy should be sold and legume
hays purchased in their stead.

Big Mistake in, Feeding
Laying Hers Stimulants

1t is mistake to feed nostrums
and stimulants to hens or pullets in
an effort to increase the present egg
production, for the simple reason that
the feeding Of such stimulants has a
very detrimental effect upon the per-
Torrance of the hens during the sub
sequent breeding season. Stimulation
Of laying fowls, as in the case of hu-
man beings, through the use Of drugs
or stimulants, can cause nothing else
but the eventual breakdown Of the
physical being Of the individual.

Necessary for Ducks to
Have Water for Drinking

1t was formerly considered neces-
sary to have swimming pool or pond
for ducks. but they can be raised
profitably without 1t. The eggs are
more likely to be fertile, however, if
given plenty Of range and water to
swim in. Ducks really do drink more
water than hens. and require a deep
pan or fountain placed near their
feed so that they can run to it every
little while and drink or wash their,
bill.

Heavy Grain Feeds for
Pullets Gaining Favor

Heavy grain feeding for pullets Is
gaining favor among poultrymen each
year. Some Of the most successful
demonstration farms kept grain in
front of the pullets during most Of the
past winter. At least four pounds Of
grain to every pound Of mash should
be fed during the fall and winter
months. This matter Of heavy grain
feeding is of real Importance and
should not be overlooked.

The laboratory of animal pathology

chicks, for owners of breeding stock.
Upon request Walls will be furnished
for collecting blood samples, as well
as leg bands, bearing numbers for the

Of five cents per sample will be made
to cover in part the cost Of making
the test. Valuable assistance can be

Symptoms of infection.

chick sways back and forth when in

Mildly infected chicks grow to ma
turity, and while they appear to be
healthy, harbor an ovarian infection
and eventually become active spread
ers of the disease.
Bacillary white diarrhea may be
transmitted to the chicks through the

the egg to the chick. A single in,

responsible directly or Indirectly for
communicating the infection to- the

Control OF Disease.
The control of bacillary white diar-
rhea depends on two factors: First
the detection of infected breeding
hens by means of the serum agglu-

the flock; and second, the protection
