sUccULENT
DAIRY FEEDS

Old Farmer Jones turned his milk
COWS into the strawstack that they
might have all of the feed they want
ed. And when they failed to produce
any milk he wondered why. The feed
ing of dairy cattle for economic milk
production has developed into a def
mite science that requires very close
study. And yet for good results it is
not necessary for a farmer to study
all about vitamines and the very
technical details of nutrition. But
rather, common sense observation of
the important principles will ordinar-
lily get the results desired. And one Of
these principles is the furnishing the
animal with succulent feeds.
BY a succulent feed is meant a feed
that is high in water content in pro
portion to the amount of dry matter.
Some Of the best succulent feeds are
pasture, root crops, and sllage In
these feeds the water content is such
as to furnish the required amount of
water necessary for the animal body
in more desirable form than If the
animal was forced to drink all that
is necessary. The water obtained in
this way has an effect upon the di-
gestion and the physical condition of
the animal that is entirely beneficial
and that can be obtained in no other
way
In the summer time If water is avail
able the problem Of succulence will be
easily solved. Good green pasture is
probably the best form in which we
can obtain this valuable property. In
case pasture is not possible then pro
vision should be made just the same
as is made in winter.
No matter whether or not pasture
is available on a dairy farm. there
should always be a silo. This lnsures
a good storage place for succulent
feed for use at any time during the
year. Perhaps silage gives the best
source Of succulence taken from all
the year standpoint and any dairy
farmer VIII profit by feeding II. It is
not a high-toned food fit only for the
welathy breeder to use, but Is feed
that produces an effect on the animal
that makes the other food IT consumes
much more effective, and therefore
cheaper.
The third source Of succuence for
dairy farmers in Delta county rs the
root crops. Root crops have long been
recognized as valuable in feeding
cattle. They form the most common
source Of succulence in the old coun-
tries and have also played an import
ant part in making some Of the great
production records in this country
Perhaps sugar beets are too valuable
to use in this way but few acres of
mangles will give a large tonnage and
are excellent feed, 1t is wise 10 cut
beets up to prevent choking.

BUSINESS AS SEEN
BY BIG BANKERS

Following are a few paragraphs
from the monthly bank letter for Oc,
tober issued by the National City
Bank Of New York. They carry much
of interest.
There is apparent in business circles
some disappointment that the in
dustrial rally which was quite notice
able in August did not develop into
more pronounced movement in Sep
tember. We think, however, all things
considered, that the volume Of trade
in recent months and the present
trend in industry should be regarded
as quite satisfactory The falling off
Of production in the past six months
has been for the most part in lines
that were very active in the preceding
six months, and which evidently had
accumulated a surplus of goods.
Copper and oil are entitled to men
tion when the roll of the depressed is
called. Both are close to the lowest
prices on record. In both cases, how
ever, this is not so much due to lack
of demand as to increased and ap-
parenuy uncomfortable production.
The consumption of copper in this
country in the first six months of this
year is said to have been no less than
in the corresponding period of last
year. In the case of oil it is the old
story Of supplies accommodating beyond
the ability of the producers and mid
dlemen to carry them. However. lower
prices resulting from a production
which overruns normal demands is not
a symptom of industrial depression.
1t is notable fact that throughout
the past six months the volume of
bank clearings or debts has been run
ming somewhat ahead of last year, and
although the loadings of revenue
freight have been under last year. the
deficit has been largely in coal and
a few industries recognized as below
normal
Apparently industry on the whole
has been better than holding it's own
and the reports as to the movement of
merchandise and prospects for trade
are almost everywhere better.
At the present time certain develop
ments Of great importance are to be
noted which make for the inaugura-
tion of a period Of general prosperity
A pronounced change for the better
has come over the agricultural situa.
ton
The greatest drawback to stable in
dustrial conditions in this country
since 1920 has been the unbalanced re-
lation between agriculture and the

other industries which has limited
the purchasing power Of the largest
single group of consumers That stu
alton is in the way of being very much
mitigated if not wholly relieved
Upon previous occasions the re-
covery of agriculture from protracted
periods of depression has marked the
beginning Of the most notable periods
of prosperity this country has ever
experienced. One of them was in 1871
Is. The other was in 1897
9S when good crops - particularly
wheat-and a recovery of prices were
the leading factors in lifting us out Of
the Bryan depression and in inaugur-
ating the wonderful decade of indus
trial development
The greatest obstacle, however, to
the establishment of stable and pros
porous conditions has been the un-
settled state of Europe for there
is reason to believe that it
has been largely responsible for
the agricultural depression. And now
we have the prospect that the improv-
ing conditions in agriculture will be
supported by the recovery of industry
in Europe The highest de
gree of prosperity is to be had when
all countries are prosperous together
for a general revival.
The only remaining economic con-
dition that would seem to be necess-
ary for the Inauguration Of period OF
prosperity more notable than any in
the past is an abundance of liquid cap.
ital and credit, available to support
enterprises in any direction in which
development is needed. That requs-
ite is also present. Never has the
business community been more amply
equipped with financial resources and
the normal development of the past
ten years has been held back by the
war
What occasion then is there for
doubt or hesitation and why does not
business go forward with the conf
dence which seems to be warranted.
The most reasonable explanation is to
be found in the inharmonious relations
that have been developing in the in
dustrial organization. No matter what
may be the size of an organization,
from a football team to the all.inclus-
i've industrial organization by which
society supplies its wants, it cannot
achieve success or prosperity without
team work. Instead Of team work in
the social and industrial organization
we have it split up into groups and
blocs and factions. each so intent up
on advancing its particular interest
that it gives no thought to the com
mon interests, which are of vastly
