Lack of Barn Ventilation Cause of Serious Losses to Dairymen. One of the great functions of cow is that of conveying digested nu-- trients from the digestive apparatus to the udder, where they are made. into milk and butter fat, says KimbailPs Dairy Farmer. This process is accom- plished by the blood which circulates between these two parts of the body;. absorbing the nutrients at one point and depositing them-at the: other. To fulfill its mission the blood must be frequently and thoroughly purified: Nothing except oxygen will do. this. The only oxygen the cow finds avail- able is in the air she breathes. The cow with small, closed nostrils, a shnl-l low chest and’a smail heart girth is lacking in constitution because she does { not have the capacity for utilizing larges volumes of air containing oxygen to | purify her blood readily. It is for this reason that cows of large breathing power and extensive heart and‘ lung; capacity are considered more valuable than those lacking in.these respects. When cows are on pasture they do well, and one reason is that they are Brown Swiss cows are plain and substantial, rather fleshy, the hind quarters being full and round. ‘While in Switzerland the breed is considered dual purpose, in America the Brown Swiss breeders are de- veloping their animals strictly as a dairy breed. The average Brown Swiss: cow can be counted on to glve 6,000 pounds of 4 per cent milk. The cow pictured is a Brown Swiss. afforded by nature unlimited amounts of air and oxygen. Too often, how- ever, men who realize the value of constitution when they select cows for purchase do not realize that; regard- less of how large the cow’s nostrils may be, how deep may be her-chest or how well sprung her front rib, she is no more valuable than a cow showing less evidence of constitution unless she is afforded an abundant supply of fresh air. Because: of this on thou- sands of farms cows are stabled in barns that are dark, cold, damp and poorly ventilated. Cows are compelled to breathe air which. contains only a limited amount of oxygen. Because of this it is absolutely: impossible for them to do their best- work. Even though they may milk largely when first stabled, under these conditions they gradually decrease in their milk flow and finally become unprofitable and in many instances fail to live long. Under such conditions the germs of contagious abortion, cow pneumonta, calf cholera and many other diseases: thrive to greatest advantage. Farmers would not willfully subject their cows: to such conditions, and the reason they do so in many instances is because they have not given the subject thefir careful thought and consideration. What many barns need more than anything else is an efficient ventilat: ing system. Such a system permits the entrance of ‘an abundance of fresh air loaded’ with oxygen and removes the foul air in. which: there has been substituted carbonic acid: 'gas, a- poi- sonous product, in place of the oxygen | which has been used up by the ani- mals that inhabit the barn. Many dairymen wonder why: thsir cows do so poorly in winter time. when" they feed them so well and-care ‘for them in the most excellent manner they know how, furnishing them in abundance: with the choicest of feeds: They wonder why their herds are trons bled with contagious diseases of every sort, why their veterinary bills are so high and why their death losses so great. Lack of ventilation is the great est reason. s It should be borne in mind that noth- ing will- take the place: of: fresle afr and oxygen.. Regardiess.of how-prop-- erly cows are fed, how thoroughly they. are groomed, how well they may be exercised or how regularly they may be attended and milked; if the barm in which they are stabled'isinot prop:- erly ventilated, they will not do good work, and. they will not remain healthy. Therefore they cannot be a source of profit. Tying the Calf: Tt cost, me:some good calves and a lot of real sorrow to learn that no calf ever should- be- tied- about- the- neck- with a rope and a common knot, writes a correspondent of ‘ the: Iowa Home- stead. Put a strap and ring around the neck and let the rope-be fastened to the ring. A better way than this is to get a chain with a swivel and snap at one end to pass through the ring, or, rather; to be snapped into it Begin early to groom the calves, too. It ought to be done every day. If calves are cared for well they will come through-to spring-in" fime shape and not skin poor and stunted, as we so-often see them: 1t a horse has a long;.loose: " washy" coupling be always will be likely: to scour when driven until'hot ‘and tired.

Milk a cow fast. Do not stop milking after the operation has begun. Finally, be sure to milk the cow clean.

Green cut bone varies in protein content from 12 to 25 per cent. It contains a large amouat of moisture. It carries a fairly large percentage of mineral matter and protein. The min- eral matter it carries is very benefi- rial, supplying the some minerals as oyster shell. It renews waste tissues &0d builds bones and muscles as well as feathers. On account of its expense in some localities it is Letter practice to buy the same composition in beef scrap, bone and oyster shell. When green cut bone can be had for less than 2 cents a pound it is a profitable food to feed. The feeding of about ‘one-half ounce daily per fowl is suffi- clent. Overfeeding of green cut bone causes serlous digestive troubles and may cause death. In the feeding and handling of green cut bone it is of prime importance to feed none but when fresh and un- tainted. Green cut bone spoils very easily. It is hard to keep. The only way of keeping it at any time is by spreading it out thin in a cold place. Green cut bone when necessary to cut by hand is too expensive. Where a regular supply of fresh bone is to be had and can be cut by power every other day it is profitable and advis- able to feed it. =Green cut bone is very much relished by the fowls.— F. W.
