Vermont Station Favors
Pumpkins for Dairy Cows

Pumpkins are a valuable feed for
dairy cows. In composition they re-
semble mangels and are as valuable
for cows. The tradition among farm
ers that pumpkin seeds increase the
kidney excretlons. tend to dry up
cows. and hence should be removed
before feeding has no good founda-
ton. The seeds contain much nutri-
nent and should not be wasted. The
Vermont experiment station found
two and one-half tons Of pumpkins,
including seeds, equal to one ton Of
corn silage.
They can be either fed in the barn
or out In the pasture. When fed in
the barn they should be cut in small
pieces. II fed in the pasture they
need only be broken in two pieces.
Cows that have never been fed pump
kins must first learn to eat them be-
fore they relish them.

SHORTAGE OF LABOR
LOOMS IN SPRING

Denver.-While the usual winter
surplus OF seasonal workers now ex-
lists, Indications point to Il shortage of
labor during the building and agricul-
tural periods of 1924, according to a
special report made for Colorado by
Ounce Record, director of the eighth
district Of the federal employment
service Of the United States Depart
nent OF Labor. Industrial activity
continues on large scale, and there
,s every indication Of an expansion in
many lines Of industry during the next
year, with a resultant increased de-
nand for skilled and unskilled labor
,ver 1923.
These predicted expansions are par
ticulariy noticeable in agricultural
pursuits, power, irrigation, drainage
systems and other construction pro-
Jects, and in the gas and oil fields.
Municipal improvements and highway
construction amounting to millions Of
dollars will be continued ana consid-
cradle new work started during 1924.
There Is at the present time some cur
tailment in employment in metal
mines. 1t is expected that this indus
try will show increased activity, with
metal miners in strong demand.
Employment in the coal mines has
increased somewhat during the past
few weeks, and an optimistic outlook
for the future prevails in this indus
try. Steel mills are particularly ac-
tive and should continue, and 1t is
thought that railroad shops, though
seasonably curtailed at present, will
be actively engaged on an increased
hour and employment basis within q
few months

Different Methods for
Hand Feeding of Calves

There is some difference In the
time to begin hand feeding Of the calf.
Some take the calf away without al
lowing 1t to nurse at all. Others pre-
fer to let 1t nurse once, and some al
low 1t to remain<>with the cow three
or four days or until the fever is out
Of the udder and the milk Is fit for
use in the dairy. 1t probably makes
very little difference as to this point,
but 1t is fact easily established that
the earlier the calf is taken from the
COW, the ehsier 1t will be to teach 1t
to drink.
If the cows udder is in good condi-
tion when the calf is dvopped, 1t will
the calf away early. When the udder
is caked. 1t is best to leave the calf
with her until this condition Is re-
moved. The point that must be kept
In mind Is that at first the milk from
the mother should always be given the
calf and not the milk from some other
COW. The first milk, or colostrum, CIV
en- by COW Is especially suited to the
requirements Of a young calf, as 1t has
the property Of acting as physic and
stimulating the digestive organs.
With the higher testing breeds, 1t il
particularly desirable to take the calf
away early or else exercise care that
the calf does not eat too mudl Of the
high testing milk which may bring on
digestive troubles that are dimcult to
overcome.

Synthetic Sugar Made
by Australian Scientist

An Australian scientist announces
that In his laboratory he has been able
to produce synthetic sugar which
differs in no way from the product OF
the cane. Experts. according to the re-
port, have been unable to distinguish
between the artificial product and the
genuine grown variety.
The actual process of manufacture Is
at present carefully guarded secret.
The principal difficulty to be overcome
was the producing, in the laboratory
and by chemical means. the condensa-.
ton Of certain elements which Is eff
fected by sunlight during the growth of
the cane In the field. Careful expert
mentation has solved the problem, says
the inventor of the process, reproducing
perfectly the actual conditions of

DAIRY
FACTS
Use Eternal Vigilance
in War on Tuberculosi

OoC cGSAANA SASAAoASS
in War on tuberculosis
In fighting tuberculosis In cattle the
old reliable eternal vigilance is as
much the price Of victory as In any
other contest.
Men who are most closely in touch
with dairy conditions say there Is
grave danger of reinfection even after
the herd is clean.
They say that special cnre should
be exercised in cleaning and disinfect-
ing barn after the removal of re-
actors. The dairyman should be sure
that every corner is scrubbed, cleaned
and disinfected. E
The danger that cows from clean
herd will be infected at fairs. stock
shows and sales is also said to be
great. The cattlemen at the New
York State Agricultural College at
Ithaca go SO far as to say that the
farmer with the clean herd should re-
fuse to exhibit his stock unless he II
quite sure that the regulations permit
ting only the entry Of tuberculin-tested
stock are stricly enforced.
The pasture offers another source of
Infection. Even If the farmer is sure
his herd Is clean, the cattle may get
the germs from 4 stream which car
ries them from another pasture In
which tubercular cows are kept. One
herd was known to have become In
fected by drinking from stream
which flowed through a slaughter
house yard where reactors were killed.
The calves need to be protected.
They should not be fed milk which
Is even suspected Of harboring the
germs. Such milk can be made safe
only by holding 1t at temperature OF
$50 degrees for twenty minutes.
