Improving a Ration 
Have ymi any suggestions or correction 
for the following ration. Which I am using 
with cut corn fodder and clover hay once 
a day, with some molasses ; 100 lbs. bran, 
100 lbs. gluten. 100 lbs. oilmeal, 100 lbs. 
cob meal, 100 lbs. ground oats, 100 lbs. 
cottonseed meal, oG per cent. G.i). W. 
I should double the amount of bran, 
double the amount of corn und cobmeal. 
and add 200 lbs. of brewers' grains to the 
mixture you are now feeding. This will 
provide a combination more palatable, 
more nutritions, and likewise more eco¬ 
nomical. I should discontinue the feeding 
of molasses and substitute moistened beet 
pulp for this material. Moistened beet 
pulp will provide succulence, which is es¬ 
sential for feeding cows iu milk. 
Dairy Ration 
Will you give a dairy ration? I wish 
to use ground cob and corn. What other 
feeds must 1 buy to form a balanced ra¬ 
tion? I have good corn fodder as rough- 
age. I can purchase cottonseed meal, 
gluten, bran, beet pulp, cake meal. 
Pennsylvania, R. T- S. 
With corn and cob meal as a basis, I 
should suggest the use of gluten meal, 
wheat bran, and (.ilmeal mixed in the fol¬ 
lowing proportions; 350 lbs. corn and 
cub meal, 250 lbs. bran, 200 lbs. gluten, 
200 lbs. oilmeal. Use moistened beet pulp 
if you do not have silage, and if the cows 
are in good flesh, the addition of 10 per 
cent of cottonseed meal might increase 
the flow of milk. Insist that they eat an 
abundance of roughage, and, if possible, 
get some legume hay.

Young pigs rnuftt be supplied with 
products low in fiber, hence your selec¬ 
tions must be made from a combination of 
corn, oat*, middlings, and tankage. 
Ground oats can be used only iu n limited 
degree, but usually it is an advantage to 
incorporate eight or 10 per cent of oats 
iu rations Intended for growing pigs. A 
combination consisting of live parts of 
corn, three parts of middlings, two parts 
of oats, and one part of digester tankage 
Would serve until the pigs weigh 100 lbs. 
After this weight is reached, the oats and 
middlings can be eliminated and the pigs

of yellow cornmeal and one part of 60

== Dairymen and stockmen who investigate carefully before 
buying invariably select Globe Silos. Full capacity of the 
silo purchased is assured. The extension roof with its 
== nearly straight sides permits the silage to be trampled and 
packed to its full rated capacity. There is no silage heaped 
== up in the center, and this means no rotted silage when you 
== begin feeding from the silo. 
§H From the first, Globe Silos have proved popular because 
they are built right by men who know silos. Other features 
==E; besides the extension roof are found in the Globe, and all 
help make them the practical silo for the practical farmer. 
Prices for Globe Silos have been reduced to 1917 levels. 
Special discounts for early orders make the price more at- 
= tractive. Write for particulars and ask for the Globe catalog.

Pigs Fail to Fatten 
Last Spring I bought two pigs, eight 
weeks old. They were as handsome as 
pigs could bo, and grew well as long as I 
bad plenty of milk to give them, which 
was about, a month. They grew us fast, 
us I ever saw t»igs grow. Since the milk 
has gone 1 gave them all different kinds 
of feed. emu. middlings, etc., and they 
would eat just enough to keep then) alive. 
I cannot get them fat enough to kill. Is 
there anything I can give them to make 
them eat and grow fat? c. a. c. 
1'igs require a certain amount of ani¬ 
mal protein in order to put on satisfactory 
gains. When you discontinued the use 
of milk, you should substitute some such 
product as digester tankage or meat meal, 
or, in the absence of either of these two 
products, linseed meal might be substi¬ 
tuted. Once pigs get off their feed and 
refuse to eat vigorously, it is difficult to 
establish gains. Possibly they are infested 
with internal parasites, which sap their 
vitality and limit their feeding qualities. 
If this condition prevails, give them a 
tea.spoonful of turpentine, diluted with a 
pint of milk, after they have been denied 
all feed for 21 hours. Tliis dose is suf¬ 
ficient for a pig weighing 75 to 100 lbs. 
Yellow cornmeal, to which has been added 
seven per cent of GO per cent digester 
tankage, ought to produce the desired 
results. Some pigs prefer ear corn or 
shelled coni to the cornmeal, and by mix¬ 
ing the digester tankage or linseed meal 
with water, you can provide protein in
