The Ready 
Ration For 
Dairy Cows 
The famous Larro blend is succulent, palatable and easily 
digested. It is the result of years of research and thousands 
of dollars spent in testing. Few dairymen can mix an efficient, 
balanced ration at home. They lack facilities, lack time and 
help, lack a tried and proved formula. Why take chances? 
Why not get maximum results from your cows? Write for all

Live Stock Matters 
By Prof. F. C. Minkler 
Ground Eone for Pigs 
Is the line ground steamed bone sold 
by fertilizer dealers a safe feed for 
either lio/rs or poultry? I have been 
told by a feed dealer who has a differ¬ 
ent kind of bone to soli that ibis ground 
bone is not cooked enough to be free 
from germs. Is ho correct? I was 
thinking of getting a few hundred 
pounds along with my fertilizer to feed 
my young pigs, and also some for the 
hens, but of course do not want to if 
there is any danger. a. r. m. 
You can safely use the ground 
steamed bone mentioned as a source of 
mineral matter for either pigs or poul¬ 
try without danger of infection from 
tuberculosis or other infectious disease. 
The process of manufacture of this 
product is sufficient completely to ster¬ 
ilize the product, and rlie warning thar 
has been given you is relatively far¬ 
fetched. I had occasion to make in¬ 
quiry the other day concerning this 
same problem, and the manufacturer 
convinced me that the methods used in 
the preparation of steamed hone was 
sufficient to destroy all living organ¬ 
isms and that it could be used in feed 
combinations with safety. The addi¬ 
tion of not more than 5 lbs. of steamed 
bone of this character to each LOO lbs. 
of feed fed either to.pigs or poultry is 
sufficient to make up any mineral de¬ 
ficiencies that might obtain. 
Milk Farm Problem 
I am running a milk farm with 
Guernsey cattle and want to utilize 
some old meadows for pasturage of 
some of the dry stock the coining Sum¬ 
mer. There is some grass on tlie sod. 
I want to get a better growth for pas¬ 
turage purposes without plowing. as 
I need the pasturage the coming 
Summer. There are perhaps 20 or 
30 acres, and it can bo split into 
two or three fields without very 
much expense. Is there any way 
to produce Ibis growth of pas¬ 
turage so as to he used the coming 
Summer? I Ih'nlc the soil is a little 
acid. My thought is that by running 
a disk drill over the sod, with Die disks 
set pretty deep. I might drill in some 
ground limestone, fertilizer and grass 
seed. Would this produce a growth for 
pasturage the coming season, or is 
there any better way to get the 
growth? The farms are located near 
Valley Forgo. Pennsylvania, about 24 
miles from Philadelphia. w. w. p. 
Pennsylvania. 
The addition of ground limestone 
supplemented by either a dressing of 
manure or an application of 4-8-2 fer¬ 
tilizer will aid you in reviving the pas¬ 
ture. . The lime can he put on at nnv 
time, even during the Winter months, 
while the fertilizer should be applied 
as early in the Spring as. possible. 
Rather than to go over the field with 
a cutaway disk harrow. T* would sug¬ 
gest the use of an ordinary spring- 
tooth harrow, and even then I would 
not run the forks very deep. In many 
. • i « t. _ 
ing pasture. However, I would sug¬ 
gest that some grass seed he distri¬ 
buted. especially over the areas that 
are improperly seeded. Frequent mow¬ 
ing of weeds in a pasture is helpful, 
and it greatly encourages the growth 
of the hardy grasses if this method is 
followed. It may be necessary to defer 
turning the animals into the pasture 
until a later date, hut it can he pas¬ 
tured this season without danger of in¬ 
jury to the young plants. Drainage of 
course is essential, and if furrowed 
ditches can he run through the lower 
portions of the area you could add 
materially to the natural drainage of 
the pasture.
