"HANDFEEDNG DAIRY CALVES"

Several st. Croiix dairymen have recently become inter-
ested in handfeeding calves rather than letting the calves
run free with their mothers. In handfeeding, less milk is re-
quired to raise a calf, and there is less risk Of a cows udder
being damaged by a buttng calf, and less inconvenience in
handling calves at milking time.
AT calving time, a COW should be separated from the rest
Of the herd and observed from time to time and assistance in
calving given if necessary. Immediately after calf is born,
mucous and membranes should be removed from the mouth
and nostrils, and the navel should be clipped off about two
or three inches from the body and disinfected with tincture
of iodine.
The calf should nurse within the first hour after birth,
and if it is weak, it should be helped patiently to get its
first meal. It is important that a calf receive colostrum,
or the first milk a COW gives after having a calf, for the first
three days.
It should then be removed from its mother and be fed
twice daily at the rate of h pound Of whole milk per 10
pounds Of the calls body weight. Calves should be fed at regu
lar times and any change in feed should be made gradually.
Feeding equipment must be kept scrupuously clean and
should be sterilized before each feeding.
calf starter, should be offered the calves free choice. Also
fresh chopped grass should be made available to calves, the
very best green, tender leaves Of grass to be found
A small amount Of fresh water should be hand fed after
each milk feeding for the first three weeks, and calves should
have free access to water at all times.
From the seventh week through the tenth week, the
daily milk ration should be gradually reduced, and discon-
tinued after the tenth week. The calves should continue to
receive all the starter and grass they will eat.
AT three months Of age, calves will begin to make good
use Of pasture, but will need some clipped grass and concen-
trate. tt. assure q large, growthy heifer that can come into
production Of from "a to "a months of age, some concentrate
should be fed until q hener reaches one year Of age.

Rose Controls

The roses should be kept
busted to keep them free from
blackspot and mildew. Once
started these diseases are hard
to control so it is important
that they be prevented from
getting q start. Any good dust
or spray regularly applied will
do the job. Such sprays may
contain fermate. captain, or the
newest fungicide, phaltan. Sui
phur is also good If used only
when temperatures are below
IS degrees.
We have not had enough
hard showers to keep the aphids
and thrips under control.
Spraying is necessary to pro-
tect the light colored roses and
peonies. Spray the buds before
they show color If the thripS are
to be kept from entering. They
suck the life out Of the petals
and the flowers open poorly If
at all. Frequent sprays Of Mala-
thion or similar materials are
needed to keep these pests
under control. They seldom ever
bother red roses or red peonies.

Dahiias may be purchased as

To Plant Tubers
Since most win be buying the
tubers the following cultural
practices will apply to them. A
planting hole should be dug
that is at least six inches deep
and a foot in diameter. A
strong stake should be placed to
support the plant. Most dahlia
fans prefer q six foot stake, but
II 1t is driven Is to IS inches in
the ground it win be too short
for a well grown plant. Most
gardeners compromise, driving
q seven foot stake only IL to is
inches into the ground. BY the
way. the wooden stakes should
be treated with one of the wood
preservatives to extend the life
Of the stakes.
With the stake in place the
tuber is placed at q depth Of
approximately four inches be-
low the level Of the ground,
deeper in light soils. The neck
Of the tuber should be close to
the stake. Cover the tuber with
about two inches of soil. The
hole should not be filled until
the new shoots are level or
above ground.

the shows viii have prepared

Most of the evergreen ground
covers are species Of jumpers
and are troubled by both the
red spider mite and the juniper
webworm. However. the Sar-
gent juniper tJuniperus Chin
ensis sargenti) is probably as
useful and free from pests as
any. The commonly grown
ground covers are shade lovers,
hence the jumpers are the only
ones that merit consideration
unless you are interested In
perennials such as the daylilies.

The end Of May may seem
late to be planting dal1iias.
For those who want q long
season OF bedding bloom, 1t may
be late 70 buy seed. but by going
to one Of the plant growers a
bed filled with bloom is not far
away.
II we are thinking Of grow
ing prize winning bloom for the
fall flower shows. now is the
time to get the prize winning
varieties and plant them in
properly prepared beds. The
show is purposely set for late
September because in the fall
the colors are so much brighter.
But, If you are planting
dahlias for indoor use or per-
haps for garden display. earlier
planting may have been de-
sirable.- The smaller lowered
dahlias normally are planted in
early May.
Dahlias Are Diversified
Nevertheless there is much
to be gained from planting
dahlias now in the Washington
area where the season is often
late into the fall and flowers
may be enjoyed indoors and
out. The dahlia is q productive
flower and the range in colors
and forms Of bloom is seeming
ly endless. Unless one has q
large garden and boundless en-
ergy, one should not try for a
complete collection Of colors
and types. Rather it is much
more satisfactory to grow those
flower forms and sizes which
appeal to the individual and

Do not plant all of the Is

vide bloom for some special oc-
casion. They are one Of the few
quick. dependable boomers.
Usually. q healthy. large bulb
will produce q flower stalk and
blooms in 10 days to two weeks.
That means you can plant and
be reasonably certain Of your
bloom whenever needed. Give
the Ismene lilies q sunny sit
uation and q soil that is well
with compost or peat
moss. The large bulbs should be
covered with an inch or so Of
soil. Deep planting is out Of the
question II you wish to dig them
with any degree Of ease.
