Show THE RICH COUNTY NEWS, RANDOLPH, UTAH SALT LAKE BEST TIME TO DROP CALVES Best Decided by Farm Conditions, Considering Feed Supply, Pasturage, Etc. Question The best time to have calves dropped Some farmers prefer to have them dropped in late February, in March, or early in April, while others prefer September or October. This question Is decided by the farm conditions, taking Into consideration feed supply, pasturage, equipment and labor. When calves are dropped in the spring they require less close attention and labor during the first winter and less pasture during the first summer, since cows and calves run together, while the cows may be wintered more cheaply by using a greater quantity of coarse is debatable. roughage. However, If calves are born in the fall, the cows are in better condition at calving time; they give more milk for a longer period; the calves make better use of the grass during their first summer; they escape files and heat while small, and may be weaned Just before calving time. Fall calves should not be weaned until they are put on grass In the spring. No matter what system Is used, all the calves should be dropped within a period of 60 days to give as much uniformity as possible to the calf crop.

As members of the Cedar Grove YOU NEED PRINTING association for the past three and one-hayears we have obtained some profitable results," writes the owner of a Wisconsin farm to a field agent of the Dairy Division of the United States Department of Agriculture. When we started, our herd averaged 11,829 pounds of milk and 410.2 pounds of butter fat, while last year our average was 13,737 pounds of milk and 502.2 pounds of butter fat. We were encouraged by our tester to mix our rations before feeding and to milk some of our cows three times a day, which in one Instance brought an Increase in production of over 3,000 pounds of milk In the year. Another problem our tester helped us solve was our calf feeding. He encouraged us to mix a good calf ration, and our calves have grown a: one-hapounds ties which 'are manufactured In the homes.

The difference in home work now and then is that instead of work going from the home out In the factories, the work Is now collected in the factories and taken to the home, finished and curried, back to the factory. The poor conditions which usually surround home work, the child labor which enters Into It, the impossibility of regulation by law either as to sanitation or hours of labor, and the competition of low wages, all militate against the health, happiness Tasting Association Helps Farmer to and efficiency of the individual, the Industry, and Increase the Milk Flow By the community.
