Once  more  I  warn  you  to  lookout 
for  bad  farm  seed.  Nodiving:  man  can  re-  1 
call  a  year  when  Seed  Gr&l  n  and  (i  rass  Seed  1 
WPre  so  fool  Last  summer  s  exceeding  wetness  did  It.  Runic  V 
weeds  infested  almost  every  field.  Weed  seed*  by  billions  were 
harvested  along:  with  the  grain.  Moreover,  a  big  percent  of  the  grains 
themselves  arc  running  to  low  Quality  and  are  unfit  for  planting.  Mark 
my  word,  the  man  who  rows  Grain  or  Grass  Seed  this  year 
without  first  scientifically  removing  both  the  weed  seed  and  the 
bad  /rrains  will  puy  a  fearful  penalty  at  harvest.  It  means  mnnry  , 
—big  money  to  you— to  clean  and  grade  your  seed  now— before  1 
planting  time.  This  Is  true  no  matter  what  crops  you  grow.  svY

You  will  son  that  this  figures  out 
slightly  more  than  20%  protein  ami  by 
feeding  some  Alfalfa  hay  in  place  of  the 
clover  the  percentage  of  protein  will  be 
still  further  increased  bill  this  will  do 
no  damage.  You  will  find  this  ration 
will  give  very  good  results  when  properly 
fed,  but  if  your  cows  arc  now  gettng  a 
different,  ration  it.  is  advisable  to  make

C.  S.  Q. 
Improving  a  Ration 
Will  you  balance  a  ration  for  my  cows, 
Jerseys,  six  years  old,  fresh  T  >ec.  12, 
1915,  now  giving  150  pounds  of  <  milk 
in  one  day?  I  am  feeding,  a.  m.,‘  one 
peek  stock  beets,  one  <|uart  prepared  feed, 
one  ipiart  buckwheat  middlings,  one  quart 
wheat  middlings,  one  quart  wheat  bran, 
two  quarts  cob  meal  and  oats  ground; 
p.  m..  two  quarts  cob  meal,  one  quart 
wheat  bran,  one  quart  wheat  middlings, 
one  quart  feed,  roughage,  three  bushels 
bright  cornstalks  cut,  no  hay  or  straw. 
New  York.  w.  n.  n. 
Your  cows  have  now  been  fresh  long 
enough  to  make  it  safe  to  feed  a  good 
milk-producing  ration.  It  would  be  bet¬ 
ter  to  feed  tiie  stock  beets  twice  n  day 
after  each  feeding  of  eornsirjtlks  and 
make  a  grain  mixture  containing  more 
eon  centra  te.d  protein  feeds  about  as  fol¬ 
lows:  100  lbs.  wheat  bran,  100  lbs.  buck¬ 
wheat  middlings,  100  lbs.  dried  distillers’ 
grains.  200  lbs.  corn  and  cob  meal  and 
ground  oats,  50  lbs.  cottonseed  meal,  100 
lbs.  gluten  feed. 
This  mixture  will  give  yon  (be  proper 
amount  of  protein  at  a  reasonable  cost 
and  increase  the  production  of  milk  in  a 
short  time.  If  you  can  get.  some  good  clo¬ 
ver  or  mixed  hay  it  would  he  an  improve¬ 
ment  over  an  exclusive  feed  of  cornstalks 
for  roughage.  _ _  c.  s.  g. 
Mixing  a  Grain  Ration 
I  have  a  heifer  three  or  four  years 
old.  She  gives  the  most  cream  for  the 
amount  of  milk  1  ever  saw.  Her  milk 
weighs  two  pounds  two  and  one-half 
ounces  per  quart.  1  give  her  eight 
pounds  of  good  hay  night  and  morning, 
four  quarts  of  roots  twice  a  day,  sweet 
corn  stalks,  five  pounds,  cut  in  a  hay 
™  \  Look  into  your  feeding  method.  Your  feeding  ration 
\  lacks  the  necessary  milk-making  ingredients. 
'  ^  yet5,00’  \  It  is  not  enough  to  feed  your  cow  the  proper  proportions  of  pro- 
yv0'*’  '  •  -,o  \  tein,  fat  and  carbohydrates— it  requires  these,  and  also  phosphorous 
0L  t&V'°0d  \  and  lime  to  maintain  a  strong,  efficient  body,  and  produce  milk. 
c,se*  \  Farmers  find  it  difficult  and  costly  to  mix  scientifically  balanced 
\  rations.  This  is  true  especially  if  they  want  to  take  advantage
