OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS fi—_—————‘* Will the invitation of President Harding to the powers of Europe result in international disarmament and universal peace? N Or will it merely serve to impress upon the mix]ds of the| ‘American people the hopelessness of the undertaking and the| necessity of preparing for the next war? These are the all absorbant questions of the hour, and no man is wise enough to answer them. . The world is weary of conflict, but no nation really trusts another, Therein lies the great danger of future explosions. The final result will depend entirely upon the attitude of| the foreign delegates when they arrive in Washington in| response to the president’s invitation. If they come to us with the expectation and willingness to give and take in a sincere effort to arrive at a just and equit- able status of international relations, then we may hope for peace and eventual disarmament. But if they come as they went to the peace conference in Paris, determined to wrest every possible advantage for their own respective governments, regardless of the rights of other people, then we may look forward to nothing but an early re- sumption of the war that has just ravaged Europe and para- lyzed the commerce of the world, The peace conference at Paris has turned out to be some- thing of a farce, except that it is a breeder of distrust, hatred and jealousy, while the league of nations has ceased to be much more than an empty name. There is nothing in the present situation to prevent future wars, There is much to stimulate and fan the smouldering em- bers into flame, Having seen the folly of a grasping spirit, through the out- come of the Paris conference, it is possible and devoutly to be hoped that England, France, Italy and Japan will see the wis- dom of applying the golden rule to their deldiberations in Wash- may be reached. Japan may surprise the world by her spirit of conciliation and cgncession, but to do so she must execute a complete about| face and march in the opposite direction, and unless she does| this there will be no settlement, no peace, no means of prevent-"’ ing future wars, | Today Japan is arming herself by tremendous strides, far beyond the needs of a country that does not contemplate futurg .aggressive conflict, and her actions are viewed with skepticism by many deep thinkers and profound students of in- ternalttional affairs, t is possible, of course, that the very environment of Washington, the cradle of liberty, may exert gn elevating effect upon the .deleg:ntes to the coming conference, But in any event, having taken the initiative, it is the duty of the government of the United States to go the limit in an ef- fqrt to res.tore the world to a condition where justice and right will prevail in international affairs, Then our own hands, at least, will be clean, though we find it l‘;vtz:l;ssary to stain them with the blood of other nations in future ¥, R !

(Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) No part of dairy farming is more es- | sential than the proper feeding of young calves. Likewise nothing is more important for the best develop- ment of calves than a good supply of milk and skim milk in the ration. In the past few years the surplus of these | products has been utilized as human food in the form of condensed and powdered milk and skim milk. Re- ports recently received by the Unlted | States Departinent of Agriculture, how- ever, point to a temporary surplus of tl products during the flush season, due to decreased export outlet. Un- til this situation is adjusted, it would seem advisable to utilize the surplus milk and skim milk as feed for live stock, In raising dairy calves most dairy- men’ prefer that the calf remain with the cow for the first 48 hours. If it is taken away then the cow will be less nervous when she begins to be milked again for commercial purposes than if they are allowed to run to- gether for a long period, It is desirable that the calf be In a thrifty, vigorous condition -when it Is | taught to drink. It may be left with- | out food for 12 hours, at the end of | which time it will be hungry, and with | a little teaching will usually drink milk from the pail. Warm, fresh milk | from the mother should be put in a | clean pail and held near the floor in | front of the calf, which will generally begin to nose about the pail. Once it | gets a taste of milk, it will usually | drink without further trouble. Some- times, however, more vigorous meas- ures must be taken, The quantity of milk fed to a calf depends upon its size and age, and to some extent on the kind and condition of the feed, but experimeuts by the Department of Agriculture indicate that about one pound a day should be fed for every ten pounds weight of the calf at birth. Many beginners make the mistuke of letting the calf have as much milk as it wants. This would be all right if the calf were fed every two or three hours, as when it runs with the cow, but as it is im- practicable ordinarily to feed more than two or tlree times a-day, it is best to keep the quantity well below the capacity of the calf and not risk overfeeding. For the first four days milk from the dam should be fed. After this the milk may be from any cow or cows in When Two or More Calves Are Raised Together They Should Be Tied Sep. arately or Fastened to Stanchions When Fed Milk. the herd, but prefer: that are nearly dry Whole milk is preferable for the first two weeks, after which skim milk may be substi- tuted, commencing with one pound a day and increasing to two or four pounds, depending on the vigor of the calf. No more skim milk should be fed than the calf will' drink readily. In most cases at the end of the third week the ration should be approxi- mately one-half whole and one-half separate milk, At the beginning of the fourth week from one-half to three-fourths of the ration should be sep: ed milk. Dur- bly not from any inig the week the change should be con- tintied until by the beginning of the fifth week only separated milk 1s fed. In specially vigorous calves the change may he made u week carlier. After this time separated milk may be fed entlrely, unless the ealf is very dell- cate. The quantity fed can be grada- ally increased until 19 to 20 pounds a day are given. If milk is very plen- tiful, morg may be fed, but otherwise it will not be found économical, The time that milk should be dis- continued depends upon its cost in re- lation to the value of the ecalf, its breed, size, vigor, ete. The season in which it reaches the age of six months, and the other feeds available at that time, must also be taken into consid- eration. Six months Is probably a good average age at which to wean calves from milk. Where there is plenty of skim milk available this time may be lengthened. When the best of hay and silage and a good variety of grains are ailable, the calf may be weaned ear- lier than when such feeds are lacking. The season of good, succulent pastur- Read The Pioneer Want Ads age presents tie best possible condl- tion for weaning the calf.
