Owners Who Tolerate Them Are Inviting Big Losses. Kations and feeding practices suitable for dry cows depend somewhat on the condition of such cows at the close of their lactation periods. In the process of selection and breeding, a great many cows are so persistent in producing large quantities of milk VO"; that it is practically impossible to keep them in good flesh during the entire lactation period. This means that they are in poor condition at the close of the lactation period. Practical dairymen are agreed that such cows must have form six to eight weeks of rest following each lactation if they are to produce large quantities of milk year after year. The feeding of such cows during the dry period should be such as to enable them to regain the losses sustained In the previous lactation and before the onset of the demands of the succeeding lactation. The same principle of management is recommended for cows not capahle of as much but in less degree, producing M2S, F. Go I says Hoards Dairyman. No special ration is needed for dry A crank isnt a crank when he does cows. As in making rations for cows you a good turn. In milk, the roughage to be fed is the basis on which to compound grain mixtures. The condition of the individual cows governs the amount of grain to be fed. The needs of dry cows on good pasture are very easily met by a simple mixture composed of You can always 300 pounds ground corn or ground give richer, deeper, more brilliant barley or hominy feed, 300 pounds colors to faded or ground oats, 200 pounds bran, and 100 dresspounds linseed meal or cottonseed es, hose, coats, meal, or a mixed feed containing 30 draperies, etc., with cent of digestible protein.

In Japan, they don't quite do this, but many farmers keeping one or two cows have a silo. The department of agriculture of Japan, reported in 1925, 4,381 silos of less than five tons each. Now a cow needs about four tons of silage per year so these silos could be classified as individual silos, or one cow silos. Another thing of interest concerning the silos of Japan is the fact that the vines of sweet potatoes come next to corn in material used for filling. All kinds of green, succulent forage and material grown on the farm are cut up and put into the silo where it is preserved and fed out during the winter season. Silos are making rapid progress In Japan, according to the report, and are being widely used by the stock keepers. t s Damp floors in poultry houses are inexcusable, In the opinion of E. R. Gross, agricultural engineer at the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment station. Poultrymen who tolerate them are Inviting heavy losses in their flocks and a general reduction in the efficiency of the birds that survive. A dry wooden floor may be made of two layers of boards with building paper between, the top layer to be a good grade ofi matched flooring, so that It may be kept clean. Many poultrymen find it desirable to keep the floor 12 to 18 inches above the ground and to leave the 'south foundation wall open for air circulation. The other sides should be closed tight to keep out cold winds. For a dry concrete floor, either of two methods may be used. The first is as follows: Build the foundation walls; level the ground Inside, do not remove any soil; fill in with 6 to 8 inches of coarse sand, gravel, or cinders ; and place 3 to 4 inches of concrete floor on top. In this construction, be sure the foundations are high enough for the fill of cinders and the floor. This raised floor with Insulating fill will be dry. The other method Is to lay a concrete floor with a layer of roofing paper between. Sometimes the floor itself is not the cause of dampness. Then the remedy must be sought in a study of the care of the house ventilation, litter, or sunlight admitted. two-cour- HERE IT IS... from the LEADER OF RADIO New Screen-Gri- d, Electro-Dynami- c RATTERY SET of course its an Atwater Kent I OU families who havent electricity who use batt- eries to run your radio how you: will relish the news that Atwater Kent has ready for you a completely new battery set with all the very latest proved improvements. se IN COMPACT TABLE MODELS Model 67 It, too, is Screen-Gri- fying tube.

A fertile egg is Just as good as an infertile one if it is used at once, but it wont hold up under summer market conditions. Sell or confine the roosters as soon as the breeding season is over. The hens will lay just as well without the male in the flock. Using early hatched cockerels Is a good breeding practice on the farms. Selling them as soon as your hatching season is over saves a feed bill of from 90 cents to $1.50 each. If you have particularly valuable males, confine them. chick. Difficult to Decide Sex of Young Poults It is difficult to be absolutely sure of the sex of young turkey poults. The males will usually shoot the red and show development of the fleshy growth on the head a little sooner than the females, and they are also likely to grow more rapidly than the females. With the Bronze variety of turkeys the sex can also be detected by the plumage color as soon as they are well feathered. The breast of the females show the characteristic white tips to the breast feathers, while the males will show dark tips. Changing Breeds Several years ago it was Common advice to avoid changing breeds of poultry. That was before the days of the large hatchery when poultrymen established a flock with a few settings of eggs, possibly bought at a high price, and then spent several years In developing their own flocks. A change meant starting all over In many cases birds of both breeds wonld be flock beretained and soon a pure-brecame a flock of crosses followed by flock of mongrels.
