In some parts of the State good money has been made by finishing the animals on beet pulp, molasses, syrup, grain and cotton seed cake. It is not possible, of course, in all parts of the State to put into practice a scheme as this, but in many places some money could easily be made by farmers vif they would feed Milk as a Food. $ You Will Like Thatcher Clothes The Family Man considered a better citizen than the bachelor, and every young fellow of the right stuff looks forward to the time when he can have his own cozy nest and wife and babies. is Under the present conditions milk our cheapest and best of foods, and its production and use should be encouraged. One quart of milk will furnish as much food as four fifths of a pound of meat, or as much as eight eggs. It is often observed that milk is poorer in fat in the summer and becomes richer again in the fall, and the farmers have generally assumed this to be due to the watery condition of grass as compared with the dry feed received during the winthat the ter. Tests have shown cause of this is not grass feeding, but the temperature. A second factor of importance as influencing the richness of milk is the fatness of the cow at the tijne of freshening. A cow, high in flesh at calving time gives very much richer milk for some time than would be the case if she were thin. This knowledge is now made use of by every breeder of dairy cattle who desires to make the largest possible record for milk and butterfat production. Another interesting discovery is that when a cow is underfed she temporarily gives richer milk rather than thinner as might be expeoted. in This is of great importance connection with making tests of cows, and a failure to understand this effect has resulted in wrong conclusions from many experiments conducted with cows in the past. For some reason there is a tendency for the milk to be richer in fat during cold weather and .to beis one of come comes Your Big Desire Will Be Realized Sooner If You Start a Savinffo Account Here HIM STATE at SAM eaci Hyrum Clothing Co. poorer when the weather bevery warm, regardless of the feed consumed. Because of its food value, no milk should be wasted. Young and growing children should be provided with all they need. We need to encourage also, a greater production of milk, and it will help to conserve other foods which we can ship to our Allies across the water. M?
