Farmers who are facing shortages of hay or other feeds for the coming winter should cull their flocks and herds closely, says W. L. Cavert, extension --specialist in farm management, University farm, St. Paul, Minn. This is an opportune time for such culling, he says, as prices of afl live stock are higfh. Where feed is scarce, farmers will find it better to carry over only as much live stock as can be well handled, rather than to keep a larger number In a con' dition. Mr. Calvert suggests that farmers who anticipate short feed supplies should at once make careful calculations as to how ' much roughage will be required and check this against availThose- who discover able supplies. that they are short of feed are advised to locate supplies in their home localities as early as possible and contract for the'r needs. Where poor quality roughage, such as wild hay, straw or corn stalks, must be used, plans should be made to feed more than the usual amount of linseed oiimeal or other high protein concentrates. Millions of boys and girls all over the world, thousands of them right here In the West are " being restored - to health and strength by 'the purely vegetable tonic ind laxative known as California Fig Syrup and endorsed by physicians .for over 50 years.

U., Salt Lake City, No 44--1 929. If one is to have their dairy cows freshen during the fall, which practical results show is the most profitable, then one must see that the little calves get a good start during the fall and winter months. While this may prove more difficult for some on account of the need for better stables, fall calves that are properly grown during the first winter are ready to go on grass the following spring and grow better than spring calves. Proper feeding, plus proper stabling, are the greatest essentials in starting fall calves. When a calf Is first dropped It Is essential that it receive the colostrum milk from Its mother. This milk is laxative in character and helps to clean out the calf's system. Where it is not available, the calf should be given an ounce of castor oil. The calf can be allowed to run with the cow for four or five days, but the majority of dairymen prefer to break it to drink before it has nursed for any length of time. Too much milk is often given to . young calves. One pound of milk dally for every eight to ten pounds of live weight Is sufficient For the first two or three weeks the calves should get whole milk, then skim milk can be gradually added. Bright leafy hay should be given to the calves beginning with the third week. A little cracked corn and ground oais may also be added to the pails after the calves finish drinking their milk. As the calves develop they will gradually learn to eat grain and hay. The milk should be continued but It should not exceed 14 to 16 pounds daily or It will make the calves pot bellied. It is better to furnish the additional nutrients needed for growth by feeding grain and good legume hay, rather than to give the calves too much skim milk. Unless the calves are kept in a clean, sanitary place they will not grow to the best advantage. Scours are usually the result of unsanitary feed pails or Improperly managed stables. Calves should be turned out in a sunny pen during the day if they do not have the advantage of sunshine in their regular quarters. Utilizing Surplus Skim Milk as Poultry Feed According to a recent survey made by the United States Department of Agriculture there were In 1928 approximately 76,000,000 pounds of surplus skim milk used in the making of. concentrated sour skim milk at 27 different milk plants or creameries located in various sections of the country. The method of making this product was perfected by Dr. L. A. Rogers, chief of the division of dairy research laboratories in the bureau of dairy Industry. This product is sold mainly as a poultry feed and affords creameries or milk plants equipped with condensing machinery a profitable means of utilizing surplus skint milk. dis- A most troublesome breeding This is ease of cattle Is sterility. often a sequel of infectious abortion.

LEONARD, Inc. 70 Fifth Ave Department o t Agriculture.) i r, Tendency for Farmer to Feed Improper Rations With plenty of corn and com products, along with oats and possibly barley, all of which are low in protein, there Is a tendency for the average farmer to feed rations that are low in protein. Under these conditions there is also a tendency to overfeed many of the cows on these feeds that are low in protein, the result being that the amount of grain .fed is too large and the production too low. Farmers who have fallen into this trouble find that they can save a lot of grain and get more milk by feeding a well balanced ration according to production. , Are you prepared to render first aid and quick comfort the moment your youngster has an upset of any sort?
