" - " ar ' The poor ration Is one composed of ' corn, silage, timothy hay, pasture and corn gluten meal. The ration Is not balanced in protein and low in minerals. The other herd of cows is on a ration of legume hay, silage legume pasture, oilmeal,1 bone gruin meal, salt and a ratio plus a half pound of cod liver oil daily.

Healthy Calves Raised U .Without Use of Milk . , Although it is much easier to raise calves by feeding them milk for six months or more, gopd calves can be raised without milk after the first two months, provided that they have a good start and are strong, healthy calves at weaning time. It is essential that such calves be allowed to eat grain and hay at an early age.- The1 grain fed 'during the first two or three weeks is cracked ' corn or crushed oats, or a 'mixture of both, fed dry. When the milk is dls-- , continued a more complete mixture is used. It is best to feed some form of leguminous' hay,, because of the protein content.' . . .

Dr. Caldwefl loved people. His years of practice convinced him (many were ruining their health by careless selection of laxatives. He determined to write a harmless prescription which would get at the cause of constipation, and correct it. Today, the prescription he wrote in 1885 is the world's most popular laxative He prescribed a mixture of herbs and other pure ingredients now known as Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin, in thousands of cases where bad breath, coated tongue, gas, headaches, biliousness and lack of appetite or energy showed the bowels of men, women and children were sluggish. It proved successful in even the most obstinate cases; old folks liked it for it never gripes ; children liked its pleasant taste. All drugstores' today have Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin in bottles. 1 Coal From Ice Field Every once in a while some scien-- i ist undertakes to figure out the amount of coal available, but It seems to be generally agreed among polar explorers that the worlds greatest .untouched coal fields lie In the Antarctic. There have been several reports of the presence of coal in the Antarctic regions and it is expected that they will be confirmed by Byrd. - . .; - to Live In ALFALFA HAY IS GOOD FOR HORSES 0 Utah farms produce bushels of. onions annually.

RICHFIELD County Agent S. R. Boswell reports that the farmers of the county are beginning to fill their silos for the winters feeding. In the fifuthern part of the valley, around Monroe, sheep feeding has grown into one of the main industries. Experimental feeding, under the direction of the state experiment station, will be conducted during the winter by the Monroe Sheep Feeders association. HEBER The turkey growers of Wasatch county made a tour of the valley recently accompanied by Professor Byron Alder, poultry specialist of the Utah State Agricultural college. Professor Alder complimented the growers at the places visited on the high quality of their' bir.ds.

Fed With Corn, It Makes a Ration. : Well-Balanc- ed Alfalfa hay can safely be fed either as the sole roughage for horses, or to replace half or more of timothy or prairie hays, according to A. O. Rhqpd of the New York state college of agriculture. Experiments have shown that horses at hard work and fed alfalfa see if a headache hay as the sole roughage, maintained NEVER wait tooff.

Ensilage Is Essential to Cattle arid Sheep Feeders of beef cattle and sheep have even more reason to bnild a silo, and feed silage than the dairymen, according to experiment station results. Yet nearly all dairymen fed silage, while the majority of beef men and sheep men do not. After summarizing the results of all experimental data available Prof. F. B. Morrison, ' director of the New York v Experiment station, finds that the average ton ; value of silage for dairy cows is approximately that of good mixed hay. while the per acre yield of silage is four or five times greater than that of hay. For beef cattle, he finds silage worth half as much per ton as clover hay; and for sheep more than half as much. In an average ' of 20 trials with steers, gains on silage-fe- d cattle cost $1.22 a hundredweight less than on steers fed no silage. In these tests a ton of silage replaced 27 and 605 pounds of concentrates ; pounds of clover hay. Prof. Morrison, who has long been considered one of (he foremost feeding authorities' of the country, feels that cattle and sheep feeders, like the dairyman, could make greater profits by feeding silage. , - , one-third Stomach y two-year-o- . two-wa- y Pigs at Weaning Time Need Plenty of Grain , , ; Box-eld- Box-elde- , Pigs at weaning time should be getting all the grain they will eat The ration should include tankage or some form of milk.
