FEEDING EARLY-LAMRING EWES

To develop good milk-producing ewes, and
therefore good early lambs, winter feeding is
important. Feed them plenty of top-quality
legume hay and just enough grain to keep theru
IN good condition gaining little weight. And
don't forget exercise. 1t makes lambing easier
and helps save higher percentage of lambs.

Some recent conversations indicated that quite a

know that there than $500 meat packers in
the United States. In addition there upwards of

The only way those $4,000 companies and people
make money in their business is to sell meat. And
to sell meat they buy livestock. So all the

sential for profitable dairying
The amount of water that dairy cow will
drink depends Iargelyupon the size of the COW,
the amount of milk produced, the type of feed
consumed, and the atmospheric temperature
Milking cows need 40 TO SIS pounds of water
for each pound of milk produced
Whether dairy cows afe on pasture or in the
barn, or are dry or milking, free access to clean
water at all times produces the best results
Free access to water, in general, increases milk
production over that secured when cows are
watered either twice or once daily.
During the winter, or severe weather, milk
ing cows should be watered indoors or under
shelter where there is a comfortable atrnos-
phere. If it is necessary for cows to drink from
an outdoor tank, it is advisable to warm the
water during very cold weather so that they
will drink sufficient for their needs.

Also disturbing to traders was

lower cotton parity level will be
rejected. Traders awaited with in
