DAIRY an0 CREAMERY SOILING ON ALFALFA. Little Danger of Cows Bloating if They Are Not Overfed. The experience of others about whom 1 know and my own experience have demonstrated that alfalfa, properly used, is excellent for soiling purposes. writes H. G. Van Pelt in Kimball's, Dairy Farmer. In the summer, when flies are bad and pastures dry and al- most bare, it certainly will pay to par- tially soil cows. It is an excellent plan to keep them in a cool, well ventilated barn where flles are kept away either by darkening the windows, using fly repellants or ridding the barn of all flies. When the cool of the evening comes it is more profitable to turn the cows ot to exercise and graze during the night, getting them back where they can be protected early in the morning. By this method the milk flow can be retained, and it is always profitable to keep a cow milking as well as possible. On account of lack of feed and uncom- Admirers of the Jersey cow main- tain that she s a more economical producer of cream than most of the other pure dairy breeds. The Jer- sey, being a small animal, does not consume a8 much feed as the larg- er cattle, they hold, and thus low- er the cost of production. The cow shown Is a pure bred Jersey of ex- cellent form and type. fortable conditions that occur during a month or two almost every summer cows decrease in milk flow, and it is impossible to get them back to their former flow until they freshen again. Therefore the loss of a shrink in milk does not end with a hot season, but it must be figured for each day the cow remalns in milk during the lactation FAT MAN BE?

There is little danger of bloating cows when soiling them with alfalfa provided it is cut after the dew is dried and the cows are not overfed. It is really best to cut the hay in the middle of the day, hauling it immediately into the barn, where it can wilt somewhat in the shade before feeding. Occasion- ally under the best of circumstances cows will bloat when eating green leg- umes, and they should be watched quite closely. As soon as indications point to bloat coming on it is well to give the cow a quart of raw linsced oil as a drench and tle in her mouth a short stick as large in dlameter as a broomstick. This the cow will chew on and encourage the raising of gases which cause the bloat. Only in cases where the cow will not respond to oth- er treatment should she be tapped with a trocar. GRAIN ON PASTURE. Amount to Be Fed Should Be Regu- lated by Butter Production. The Missouri experiment station says: If a cow is producing less than a pound of butter each day the necessary food can be obtained fronmi a good pasture. 1t she produces more than this some graln can be fed with profit. This means that a Jersey cow should be able to get enough food from grass to make about twenty pounds of milk dally and a Holstein about twenty-five to thirty. It will pay to feed grain to all giv- ing above this amount, as it becomes impossible for the animal to gather sufficient feed in the form of grass. A cow giving a pound and a half of but- ter dally should have about five pounds daily, and for two pounds of butter give seven or eight pounds of grain. When not more than four or five pounds of grain are fed it can be all corn. If more than this Is needed some bran or a small amount of cot- tonseed meal should be added. In late | i summer it will often be necessary to feed more grain to high producing cows or to give silage or green feeds to help out the pastures. Right Kind of Milk Veins. Milk secretion is dependent prima rily on the amount of blood delivered into the udder. Heavy milkers have large veins, which means that a large supply of is kept circul through t glands, If blocd ¢ tlon iz weak or the blood impov of its serum and food constituents the fact will be registered in the ud sler output. Cows (hat eat much food and that bave s digestive powers will earry rvich blood their art It is this blocd that nourishes the milk glands abundantly and that cnables them to yield their product in gener- ous quantities. Butter Fat and Profit. The man who is indifferent to the loss of butter fat and milk is indiffer- ent to the profits to be made from the dairy. The two are almost inseparable —butter fat and profit. Jersey's Dainty Feeders. There seems to be a tendency for Jersey cows to be slightly more exact- ing about the quality of their feed than are cattle of some of the other dalry breeds.--Hoard’s Dairyman.

It shows him dying under the fire of the enemy in the miles of flame- streaked trenches, over which burst- ing shells carry death to the little force so gallantly defending the line of earthworks, and over which shriek the deadly shrapnel. It is all there—the desperate de- fense, the determined assault, the fierce charge, the disastrous retreat —the field covered with dead, as men in gray and blue fall by scores and hundreds. Daylight fades, and still the fight goes on. The scene is illuminated by bursting shells, the blaze from the mouths of big guns and the red glare from burning homes.
