Rearing Calves. 



In discussing this subject a New 

 Zealand farmer writes : — " In addi- 

 tion to the skim milk from the 

 separator, on which thev have been 

 mainlv reared, the calves haVe re- 

 ceived vSunlisrht, oilcake mixed with 

 the milk. This article, which is a* 

 cocoanut cake, not linseed, posses- 

 sess the great adkantage over pol- 

 lard, oatmeal, oils, and manv of 

 the • patent mixtures for calf-rear- 

 ing, that it does "not scour the 

 calves. In dissolves readily in 

 boiling water. Calves are soon 

 brought to take it, and after they 

 become fond of it may be given 

 with advantage from %lb. to ?^lb. 

 per calf per deim. When the cake 

 is used with skim milk individual 

 feeding is best, but where big 

 calves are fed together in a troug-h 

 it is necessary to kefep on stirringi 

 the milk whilst the calves are 

 drinking. AATiere this gilcake is 

 used ' the 'calves soon show its good 

 effects by their healthv skins and 

 im])roving condition. 



Dipping. 



In many cases this part of the 

 sheep-owner's dutv is performed in 

 a Very perfunctorv manner. The 

 sheep are rushed through the dip, 

 and little or no care is taken to 

 find whether it is being kept at 

 the proper strength, or that the 

 sheep a're receiving a thorough 

 soaking. At 'every dip, there .should 

 be the means of measuring and 

 thoroughly mixing the dipping-ma- 

 terial before it is run into the dip. 

 No haphazard methods will do. 



A New Zealand dairy authority 

 maintains that the dairy industry 

 does not primarily depend on the 

 factory managers, the skill of 

 dairy experts, on the breeding of 

 the cow, but on the purity of the 

 pasture and the o.-op. The hope 

 of every dairyman is to get as 

 much profit as possible from his 

 cow. It is within the power of 

 even a well-bred cow to material- 

 ise her owner's hopes if she is fed 

 on bad, weedy pastures ? Many 



Ten Weed Commandments. 



1. Good wheat cannot be growr - 

 from weed -seeds. 



2. lyike produces like. 



3. There is no weed that can- 

 not eradicated by proper treat- 

 ment. 



4. The effect of years of careless- 

 ness cannot be overcome in a sea- 

 son. 



5. One weed allowed to ripen 

 means thousands next \\sar. 



6. Piill those weeds and do it 

 now. 



7. Weeds, like the poor, we have 

 always with us ; and, again, like 

 the poor, they are most numerous 

 in shiftless commimities. 



8. Weeds are a tax on machin- 

 ery and on the temper of the oper- 

 ator. 



9. Never sow dirty seed, or neg- 

 lect to clean machinery before pass- 

 ing from one field to another. 



10. Know what is growing in 

 your fields. 



Note. — Concerted action amongst 

 neighbours is as important in deal- 

 ing with weeds as with, rabbit or 

 other pests.
