SALT FOR CATTLE.
IKtUon&l Crop Improvement Service ]
Professor Henry says that a cow
requires three-quarters of an ounce
per day per 1000 lbs. of weight and
six-tenths of an ounce per day per 20
lbs. milk. Therefore, a cow which
weighB 1200 lbs. and gives 30 lbs. milk
should have 1.8 ounce salt. It must
be remembered, however, that salt is
generally Included In high-grade dairy
feeds: It is well to give cows access
to extra salt. They will take what
their roughage demands.
THE PRICE OF FEED.
(National Crop Impro»«m«nt SerCce ]
Feed is handled on a smaller mar
gin than coal, ton for ton. The retail
feed dealer who buys in carload lots
can sell as cheap as the manufacturer
can in less-than-carload lots, the dif
ference in freight rates being the
dealer’s gross profit. In nearly every
instance, a group of farmers can or
der their feed, through a dealer, in
carloads and make a material saving.
The difference in freight alone will
•ho«t a good profit.
Take the chill off the drinking water
In cold weather and cows will drink
Bore and produce more.
Don't figure too fine on rations.
Be liberal but don’t overfeed. You
can kill all of your profit by feeding
more than the cow can assimilate.
^ [National Crop Improvement Service.]
The human element in dairy feed Is
Important. Two men may have the
same equipment, one make good
money, the other fall, while both’ are
supposed to be feeding by the —
system and the same tables.
Horse sense Is good osw sense.

HOME MIXED FEEDS.
[National Crop Improvement Service.]
When a man undertakes to mix his
own rations, what does he do? He
buys straight feeds. Take cottonseed
meal as a common example. There
are a great many different grades of
cottonseed meal, and the man who is
looking for a low-priced feed is sure
to get a low grade. The demand for
cheap feeding ingredients has caused
the quality to be gradually whittled
down. Consequently the farmer
nearly always works with feeds which
are poorer than he believes them to
be. He does not get adequate state
protection because inspectors do not
go to a farmer's barn to draw sam
ples, and even if they did, it would b|
hard to get a complete chain of evi
dence.
A farmer has no facilities for hav
ing his feed analyzed and he doesn’t
know what he is working with. The
analyses of mixed feeds costs about
ten cents per ton, and if every farmer
will read the various bulletins from
the agricultural colleges he will soon
know those brands which can be de
pended upon. There is no doubt that
at the present prices of grain any
farmer can save money by selling his
cereal crops and buying mixed feed.
Cornmeal, oil meal and cottonseed
meal are all high, but the by-products
of barley and rye are all more reason
able in price.
Corn has become costly largely due
to the demand for pork and beef.
Americans will have those meats at
almost any price. This puts corn on
a meat basis, and the dairy business
will have to fall back on the by-prod
ucts of grains.
GIVE COWS PLENTY OF WATER.
[National Crop Improvement Service J
When cows are in full milk they re
quire plenty of water. It is stated
authoritatively that cows in full flow
of milk will consume 50 per cent
more water than when dry.
Poor feed sells to poor feeders.

Farmers have commenced to make
hay this week. Hay was short last

will be hard to keep stock through the
winter on so short amount.
Monday afternoon Deer Creek was
refreshed by a three-eighths of an
inch af rain which saved the corn
crops. We wish to have another one
like it to be enough for plowing.
Sunday the Ashton second team
journeyed to Deer Creek with well
spiked men and crossed bats with our
boys. At the end of the game the score
was 5 to 6 in favor of Ashton. They
were too much for our boys but we
hope next time we meet them it will
be for a better game.

Kalkowski last Saturday afternoon had
hard luck by losing their machine by

only threshing 85 bushels of oats, a
few sparks flew from the smoke stack
and set a stack of grain afire. The
wind was blowing hard and the fire
gained great headway, burning the ma
chine and eight stacks of grain. This is
hard luck for Mr. Kalkowski. The
company has ordered a new machine
which will be delivered this week or
next.
DOUBLE DUTY
A Dairy Ration Has Two Main U:es—
Lifj aid Product.
[National I'ruxi Improvement Sen Ice }
A ration is diiided into tvto {srts:
1. The part needed to ratio i ’.a or
keep the animal a', vt.
2. The pan. needed to make
stored up material lik° wool, fat,
meat or milk.
Milk is roughly in solids, one-third
each casein (protein), fat and sugar.
The casein in milk can only be fur
nished by the protein in the food.
The fat and sugar may be derived
from either protein, fat or carbo
hydrates.
If a cow has the ability to give 50
founds of milk containing two pounds
of casein, and, only gets enough pro
tein to make" one pound of casein,
then she will only give 25 pounds of
milk.
A balanced ration Is one that has
just the exact amount of protein, fat
and carbohydrates that the cow
needs. Just what this is we cannot
ever say exactly, because the amounts
vary from week to week and no two
cows are alike, nor are feeds alike.
A practical ration is one that has
sufficient protein and enough total
food to make the greatest amount of
milk without the cow losing weight.
A commercially successful ration is
the one that makes the most milk or
profit, keeps the cow healthy and en
ables the use of the most roughage.
All the hay and ensilage .. cow can
eat will keep her alive and make
about 15 pounds of milk. Any more
milk has to come from grain or grain
feed.
The farm can usually raise carbo
hydrates cheap in the form of hay and
ensilage, and, outside of clover, peas,
etc., protein can usually be bought
cheaper than it can be raised.
The average price of protein feeds
with 20 per cent digestible protein
was about $26 to $35 per ton before
the war. but the prices are much
higher now. while hay (clover) wdth
5% Per cent digestible protein has
been rated at $10 per ton, so the pro
tein feed at $40 would furnish protein
about the same as clover at $10.
