TKe Dairy 



The scale of points upon which t In- 

 great test of dairy cows at tlie World's 

 Fair is to be made, is a departure from 

 the usual standaril. Butter will be judged 

 as follows : 



Flavor SS 



Grain. .25 



Solidity l" 



Color ^ . , , , 10 



Total 100 



.\ny standard is ni'cesaarily arbitrary 

 and all standards heretofore adopteil, in- 

 cluding the one above, are made from :i 

 commercial standpoint. We have but 

 one criticism of the World's Fair scale: 

 We would combine the items of grain 

 and solidity under the head of texture, 

 believing this covers both. 



The average butter consumer would 

 endorse a scale about as follows : 



Flavor 75 



Texture 20 



Color 5 



Total 100 



The values at which butter made in 

 the St. Louis test will be credited, are as 

 follows : 



From 75 to SO points at 25 cents 

 From 80 to 85 points at 30 cents 

 From 85 to 00 points at :?5 cents 

 From 00 to 05 points at 40 cents 

 From 95 to 100 points at 45 cents 



Solids other than fat to be credited ai 

 two cents per pound. The increase or 

 decrease in live weight will be credited 

 or debited at four cents per pound.

Calves 



Prof. W. ,1. Kennedy of the Iowa Ex- 

 change Station gives the following advice: 



"Calves should be given all the new 

 milk they will drink, but should not be 

 allowed to suckle the dam. They should 

 Ix" taught at any early age to eat grain 

 and hay, which isa most essential part of 

 a calf's education. The grain ration may 

 consist of corn, oats, bran, and a little 

 oil meal, the grain being fed three times 

 a day and hay morning and evening. 

 Clover hay is always to be preferred when 

 it can be had, but oftentimes we have 

 had to use a mixture of clover and tim- 

 othy. Plenty of good, fresh water should 

 be offered the animal twice a day. Com- 

 fortable, well bedded ijuarters should be 

 provided. Plenty of bedding is just as 

 necessary as plenty of food to eat. Al- 

 ways allow the animal plenty of outdoor 

 exercise. Without such e.xercise it is 

 impossible to keep an animal in good 

 health and always ready for its feed.
