Ration for Jersey 
I have a Jersey cow, registered, which 
dropped her first calf June, 1921. I have 
second cutting of Alfalfa, 3% tons. What 
can I feed to make a balanced ration? 
I have no silage or cornstalks; nothing 
but Alfalfa. G. w. n. 
Auburn, N. Y. 
Since you have a sufficiency of Alfalfa 
hay, I would suggest the following grain 
ration for use in feeding your Jersey cow 
that has beou milkiug since June last: 
40 lbs. corn or hominy meal, 30 lbs. bran, 
20 lbs. gluten feed, 10 lbs. oilmeal, 1% 
lbs. salt. Feed her from 7 lbs. to 10 lbs. 
of this mixture daily, and in addition al¬ 
low the Jersey cow all of the Alfalfa 
ha.v that she will eat two or three times 
a day. If she is producing as much as 
20 qta. of milk per day, I should feed in 
addition 3 lbs. or 4 lbs. of dry beet pulp. 
This material should be moistened in a 
pail of water 12 hours previous to feeding, 
and should be mixed with the other prod¬ 
ucts at feeding time. It will provide suc¬ 
culence and increase the digestibility and lbs.; ground buckwheat, 150 lbs.; wheat 
palntabihty of the ration, and at the same bran, 200 lbs.; eornmeal, 150 lbs.; oil- 
meal. 100 lbs.; gluten, 150 lbs.; cotton¬ 
seed, 150 lbs. Feed 1 lb. of this mixture 
for each 3*4 lbs. of milk produced per 
cow per day. Since you do not have 
silage or mangel beets, the use of moist¬ 
ened beet pulp would increase your pro¬ 
duction. Allow the cows all the roughage 
that they will relish, and if you could 
provide some clover or Alfalfa hay in 
addition to the sheaf oats and cornstalks 
better results would follow. 
tionately. Oats at 40c per bu. provide a 
very economical i-ation for work horses. 
If desired the bran and corn may he 
omitted from the daily ration. It is not 
necessary to utilize oilmeal during this 
season of the year, especially if the rough- 
age is mixed hay or contains some clover 
or Alfalfa. If legume hay is available, 
then oat straw can be fed in conjunction 
with Alfalfa or clover hay.

an OilPull 
Increases Farm Profits 
Every farmer knows that there are just four factors he must have 
in the tractor he buys to get cheapest power. These are (1) Low F uel 
Expense. (2) Low Repair Expense. (3) Long Life. (4) Fair Price. 
In the Rumely OilPull Tractor these Four Factors have been combined for the 
first time. An OilPull, for example, has held (1) the World's Official Fuel 
Economy Records for 10 years past. (2) Government figures show a national 
average yearly upkeep cost of $40. Among many OilPulls of all ages the average 
was found to be less than half the Government figures. (3) The average life 
of an OilPull is more than 10 years. The first OilPull, Old Number One, is still 
serviceable after 12 years. (4) Rumely prices are very reasonable. They are 
strictly in line with present economic conditions. 
Everything needed to make cheap power is here. 
Dairy Ration 
Will you give me a balanced ration for 
Holstein cows? I feed chopped vegetables 
in the morning and beet pulp in the even¬ 
ing. with mixed feed. I have oat hay 
that was cut in the milk, mixed hay, and 
cornstalks. Can buy most of the stand¬ 
ard grains. G. h. G. 
East Pepperell, Mass. 
Chopped vegetables are ill suited for 
dairy cows. However, mangel beets, car¬ 
rots. turnips, or similar root crops can be 
used advantageously. Beet pulp, when 
moistened for 12 hours before being fed. 
provides succulence of a high order, and 
its use will Invariably increase the milk 
flow. When fed by itself, however, it does 
not provide a complete ration. I /ould 
suggest. Lhe following shovel mixture: 450 
lbs. corn and cobmeal. 200 lbs. wheat 
bran, 200 lbs. cottonseed meal. 150 lbs. 
gluten feed. This mixture, fed in con¬ 
junction with moistened beet pulp and 
plenty of roughage, ought to enable your 
cows to yield •- satisfactory amount of 
Feed for Cows 
Would you give me a balanced ration to 
feed cows with corn silage, mixed hay 
and cornstalks’ I have just common 
rows; can get almost any kind of feed, 
and must buy all but corn. j. B. H. 
Mt. Bethel, Ta. 
With cornstalks and corn, green silage 
and mixed hay available for use in feed¬ 
ing grade cows, I would suggest that you 
purchase wheat, bran and gluten meal, 
and that you combine the products in the 
following proportion: 350 lbs. corn and 
cob meal, 250 lbs. gluten ineal. 300 lbs 
bran, 100 lbs. oilmeal. If desired, you 
could replace the gluten feed and oilmeal 
with 300 lbs. of cottonseed meal. A ra¬ 
tion carrying as much as 30 per cent of 
choice cottonseed meal is not an entirely 
safe mixture to utilize for any great 
length of time. Urge the animals to eat 
as much silage and mixed hay as possible, 
and insist upon getting at least 3 lbs. of 
milk for each pound of grain fed. Add 
1 Vj per cent of salt, to this mixture in 
case it is not kept before the animals in 
convenient boxes at all times.

Ration to Fatten Cows 
Will you give a ration for eight cows? 
Five of them will freshen in .Tanuarv. 
and three are farrow. I can buy almost 
any kind of feed, but have nothing but 
cut corn fodder for roughage. I want to 
sell all these cows mentioned at the time 
the five freshen, so do not care so much 
about _a ration for milk as for one to put 
them in fine, sleek condition to sell. 
Conshohocker., Pa. j. d. m. 
If it is desired to fatten the cows in 
question in order that they may be con¬ 
ditioned l'or sale. T should suggest a ration 
consisting of equal parts of hominy ineal. 
eornmeal, ground oats, wheat bran, and 
oilmeal. This mixture is hoth palatable 
and nutritious, and correspondingly high 
in energy value. When accompanied with 
clover or Alfalfa hay, ic would establish 
gains and bring about a degree of flesh 
that would he attractive and desirable. 
After the cows have become accustomed to 
this ration, gradually increase the amount 
until they are consuming from 8 lbs. to 
12. lbs. daily. You cannot put on flesh or 
bring about the desired condition unless 
' ou feed the animals generously with sat¬ 
isfying materials. Let them have ail the 
corn fodder that they will clean up with 
relish. Failing to have cither clover hay 
or Alfalfa, and in case you desire to 
rely upon the corn fodder exclusively to 
provide the roughage, it would be well 
to sprinkle some diluied molasses over the 
corn fodder. Molasses is a carbohydrate 
carrier, although at. present values it is 
an expensive source of carbohydrates. It 
is a fattening feed, however, and owing 
to its pnlatabiHty it would be apt to 
prompt the animals to consume an in¬ 
creased amount of both roughage and con¬ 
centrates.

Ration for Driving Horses 
Will you give a ration for horses U1.000 
lbs. weight) doing light work in driving? 
Hay, $35 a ton, but oats and bran quite 
cheap; oats, 40c per bu.; bran. $30 or 
less per ton. Oilmeal is pretty high. 
Prince Edward Island. J. a. m. 
Under prevailing prices for coarse 
grains, the grain Tation most economical 
for feeding horses is clearly a combina¬ 
tion of oats, bran and corn. A l.OOO-tb. 
work horse doing irregular work or light 
work would do well if the mixture con¬ 
sisted of five parts of nats, three parts of 
bran and two parts of eornmeal. De¬ 
pending Upon the intensity of the labor, 
the amount should vary from IVi lbs. to 
1 % lbs. daily for each 100 lbs. of live 
weight. A safe guide to follow in allow¬ 
ing roughage for a horse is to feed 1 Vi 
lbs. of bay per day for each 100 lbs. of 
live weight. Concentrates today are 
more economical to use than roughages, 
and for this reason one might get along 
on 1 lb. of bay for each 100 lbs. of lire 
weight, and increase the graiu propor-
