Hmman Milkers are made by men 
who were dairymen first. Their = 
original design has, therefore, never 2 
been excelled for simplicity, dura- Z 
bility, low upkeep cost, ease of EE 
cleaning —and even low cost price. EE 
The Hinman does more with less EE 
power and even a child can run it. s

Ration for Bull Calf 
Will you give me a good ration for a 
bull calf six months old? w. R. c. 
East Greenwich, B. I. 
A useful ration for a bull calf six 
mouths old would result from combining 
the following ingredients: Ground oats, 
four parts; wheat bran, three parts; 
eornmeal, two parts; linseed meal, one 
part. Feed plenty of legume hay, al¬ 
though make sure that the calf does not 
scour as a result of being supplied with 
too much leafy forage. Feed the call’ 
sufficient quantity of this grain to keep 
him growing and gaining and in a vigor¬ 
ous, healthy condition. 
Economical Ration 
I wish your advice on the following ra¬ 
tion for milk cows fed with Alfalfa hay 
morning and night and coru fodder at 
noon: 500 lbs, eornmeal, .’KM) lbs, gluten, 
200 lbs. bran, 100 lbs. oilmen!, 8 lbs. salt? 
Does it contain the required amount of 
protein to produce milk? I am feeding 
the cow that milks 36 lbs. a day 12 lbs. 
of this mixture. Is that plenty? 
New York. L. c. G. 
If you would replace 150 lbs. of the 
eornmeal with 150 lbs. of oats or with 150 
lbs. of brewers’ grains, your milk How 
might be substantially increased. How¬ 
ever, the ration that you are now using 
is a safe one, and if you have the corn 
and Alfalfa that are home-grown, you 
have a ration that is both economical and 
useful.

Today, with this low prioc.it takes less 
of farm products to pay for u Hinman 
than ever before. The Standard Milker 
at $45.0D or the complete Electric Unit 
(tio installing i at $150.00 will more than 
pay for itsel! every year in me. Thous¬ 
ands of farmers prove this every year— 
and say so. The time and labor raved, 
to say nothing of the drudgery saved, 
is worth while. Any banker will lend 
money on an investment that brings 
such big returns.

HE corn season ahead presents to the corn grower an 
opportunity to grow more and bigger ears per acre. It 
can be done by more accurate, even planting of the seed

Increasing Payability of Ration 
Is the following a good balanced ra¬ 
tion? We have good silage that we feed 
twice a day, and good mixed hay once a 
day, and use the following grains: 500 
lbs. buckwheat bran, 200 lbs. gluten, 100 
lbs. cottonseed meal. 36 per cent. Would 
you advise anything else mixed in? We 
can buy all kinds of grain. W. A. M. 
New York. 
I should prefer more variety, and be¬ 
lieve that the ration that you are now 
feeding is not palatable or desirable. I 
should reduce the buckwheat to 400 lbs., 
add 200 lbs. of bran and 100 lbs. of distill¬ 
ers’ grains. It is my belief that this 
modification would yield more satisfactory 
results. 
Ration with Corn and Oats 
I wish a balanced ratiou of grain for 
milk cows, to be used with silage and 
cut dry stalks, using as much corn and 
oats as is advisable. M. G. m. 
New York. 
Here is a ration that will enable you 
to utilize a generous amount of corn and 
oats for your milk cows, where you have 
silage for succulence and dry cornstalks 
for roughage. I should use 250 lbs. corn- 
meal, 250 ibs. ground oats, 250 lbs. cot¬ 
tonseed meal, 150 lbs. gluten meal. 50 
lbs. brail. 50 lbs. middlings, 50 lbs. oil- 
meal and 20 lbs. salt. Feed the cows all 
the silage that they will clean up noon 
and night, and as much of the roughage 
as they will clean up during the middle 
of the day. Sprinkle the grain over the 
silage morning and evening, and in this 
way it will be possible to obtain an in¬ 
creased consumption of silage. Feed the 
cows in proportion to their daily milk 
production. You ought to obtain 350 to 
400 lbs. of milk for each 100 lbs. of grain 
fed under these conditions.

Feeding a Family Cow 
I have a Jersey cow. and am feeding 
the following ration : 100 lbs. eornmeal, 
100 lbs. wheat brau, 100 lbs. ground oats, 
50 lbs. gluten, salt. With this she is get¬ 
ting beet pulp, as I have no silage, and 
gets ordinary farm hay. What do you 
thing of this ration? Can it be improved 
upon for better results. When 1 water 
her, and, in fact, other times, she sucks 
her tongue for some time. The water is 
not cold, for I always warm it for her. 
Can you tell me is this a habit or some 
trouble or ailment? E. C. K. 
New York. 
The ration you are feeding to your 
family cow would be improved by adding 
50 lbs. of oilmeal and by increasing the 
gluten feed from 50 to 100 lbs. Since 
you are feeding beet pulp a9 a source of 
succulence in addition to corn and oats, 
your mixture is largely carbonaceous, 
hence the suggestion for move protein. 
Re sure to give the cow all the roughage 
that she will consume, for, after all. such 
products as Alfalfa hay, Clover hay or 
mixed forage are the determining factors 
■n keeping cows free from indigestion and 
discomfort. 
The cow evidently has a habit of lick¬ 
ing her chops, and this is of no conse¬ 
quence. In fact, it prompts her to drink 
more slowly, which is a distinct advan¬ 
tage. Pn not warm the water other than 
to take off the chill. I believe cows en- | 
joy a cool drink, and would dislike to 
think that they would enjoy a hot toddy, 
especially during these days of prohibition. 
Moisten the pulp with warm water, and 
be generous with this tasty feed. Use 
only 43 per cent cottonseed meal, and do 
not buy your roughage iu a bag.
