EXCELLENT RATION FOR COW
If Farmere Would Depend More on
. Silage and Lett on Pasture Horde
Could Be Doubled.
A good ration for cows giving inllk
Is silage twice a day, corn fodder once
a day and all t lie bean forage they will
clean up, with about one pound grain
or concentrate to every three pounds
milk the cow gives. If the beans were
pulled before becoming too ripe and
secured without much rain falling on
them, the forage makes good feed.
Hoots are valuable to increase the
(low of milk.
If we would depend more on silage
and less on pasture, our dairy herds
might easily be doubled and the farm
enriched accordingly. Many farmers
have been slow to awaken to the fact
that dairying brings excellent returns.
Many unprofitable crops are still
raised where the land might better be
growing feed for live stock.
Permanent pasture Is a waste un
less the land cunnot bo plowed. Every
acre shouHT be made to raise feed for
stock to the limit of Its capacity, and
this should be fed right on the farm,
returning tfai.0 fertility to the soil.
PAIL OF GREAT IMPORTANCE
Where Clean Milk Is Produced Small
TCp Rcccptacte Is Neceesary
to Excludc Eacteria.
The United States department of
agriculture ha3 this to say about
milking:
"In modofn' dairies v.ii< h1 cl<?r? n
milk' la " produced me h-mail-top milk
pall is a necessity, as such a pail pre-.
Acnts only a small opening Into which
dust, and dirt may fall from the air
or from the cow's body. It has been
found bv experience that the use of
tho f-nall-top pall greatly reduces the
number of bacteria in milk from aver
age dairies. Many typeff of milk pails
are for sale, but any tinner can con
vert an ordinary pail Into a small-top
pall by the addition of a hood, as
shown herewith, ? -1 ? ? j

of wetting the hands with milk is a
filthy habit and is liable to cause~nr*5

cow's teats to chap in the winter
iime. Milking should be done quick
ly and thoroughly, with no violent
Jerking of the teats. After each cow
Js milked the pail of milk should be
removed immediately to . the milk
house.
The milker should remember al
ways that he is handling a human
food which is very easily contami
nated. Soap, clean water and towels
must bp readily accessible. The hand9
should be washed after milking each
cow.
COTTONSEED MEAL FOR COWS
No Harmful Effects If Fed In Moder
ate Amounts Along With Variety
of Other Feeds.
(By K. G. WOODWARD, Nebraska Ex
perlment Station.)
A Nebraska subscriber writes: "Is
the feeding of cottonseed meal harm
ful to dairy cows if fed right along?"
If cottonseed meal Is fed in moder
ate amounts along with a variety of
other feeds, there are no harmful ef
fects.
Ordinarily a' cow should not be fed
more than two pounds daily of cotton
seed meal. As a usual thing it will
not take this amount to properly bal
ance a ration made up of common
dairy feeds.
At present prices cottonseed meal
is a very cheap source of protein and
should undoubtedly bo used much
. more extensively by Nebraska dairy
men than it now is.
Mt)D HOLES IN COW PASTURE
?
Clean Shore la Bles'sing ko Fly-Pes
tcred Animals ? Many Annoyances
Are Avoided.
A cow pasture mud hole is a ver
itable nuisance. To get away from
the flies the cows will wade In the mud
until their legs and even their udders
become completely plastered. Then
added to the annoyance* of stamping
and kicking at flies at milking time we
have tho added annoyance of being
to milk cows with chapped,
teata. * ?
A clean lake shore or river or brook
In the pasture Is a blessing Indeed, to
the fly-pestered cows, but the mud hole
should either be drained or fenced , out
of the pasture. Foul in the foot with
cattle, ar.d grease heel with horses. Is
tho result of tramping back and forth
from mud holes to dusty grounds.
