Live Stock Feeding Problems 
Ration to Add Protein 
Will yon give me a balanced ration for 
my cows? I have two that have been 
fresh four weeks, reinaliider are due June 
and July. I have lui.xed h;iy. clover and 
Timothy, and oat straw. Cows average 
about l.OCKl lbs. each, and are in good 
condition now. it, c. E. 
New York. 
Since your roughage is of rather low 
protein nature, it will be necessary to use 
high-priced high protein feeds to balance 
a ration. Feed what hay and straw the 
<-i.ws will clean up feeding two to three 
times as much hay as stiunv. Make up 
grain ration of two parts cotton.seed meal, 
-Vj parts gluten feed. 2^^ parts wheat 
bran, one part dried beet puli), and 1 per 
cent. Siilt. Feed grain at rate of a pound 
to i> to 3^ Ihs. of milk produced. Ii. F. J. 
Ration for Jersey Heifer 
Will you biilance a ration for a giaule 
Jersey? I have mixed Inty, plenty of 
hr,an, gluten, cottonseed and linseed meal, 
also beet pulp. AVonld you recomnien i 
feeding beet pulp dry? What grain 
should I feed a heifer yejirs old not 
due to freshen? I want to keep her in 
good condition. F. M'. It. 
Maine. 
Since you have no silage you would do 
well to feed about 3 lbs. dried beet pulp 
daily, soaked in about 10 lbs. of warm 
water. Feed whiit mixed b.ay cow will 
clean up, and a pound of grain to .3 lbs. 
of milk from the following grain mixture: 
2 parts bran. 1 jiart gluten. 2 parts cot¬ 
tonseed meiil and 1 part linsepd oil meal. 
Add one jier cent, salt to grain mixtui’e 
when making it up. ii. F. J. 
Garget; Rations for Cow and Calf 
1. I have ii good grade cow, freshened 
last month, apparently in fir.'it-class con¬ 
dition. A.s I was Jiway from home every 
day I left CJilf with her for_ fiv<; days, 
and did no milking. On evening of fifth 
day found one front teat empty, except 
for ii very little highly-colored very thick 
milk : bathed udder well with hot water 
and rubbed well with warm olive oil. 
Next day the other fttrward naif of udder 
w:is afiecred in same Wiiy. I kept up the 
bathing and next day the thick substance 
was rejilaced with normal milk, but hard¬ 
ly any of it. I am getting about 12 
quarts jier day from back half of udder 
and about one-half pint from front. She 
vvas milked for 20^/^ months and wiis giv¬ 
ing about three pints of milk on Septem¬ 
ber 1 last, when I stopped milking her 
s'x weeks before freshening. 2. Please 
give me the most economical ration for 
raising calf, eliminating milk as much as 
po.ssible, as butter is 47-cents per lb., .and 
we <-an get 5c* ijuart for .skim-milk. 3. Also 
ration for cow, I have plenty of good 
clover bay, but no grain. Corn chop is 
$2.20 i)er 1(X) lbs.; oat chop, $2; oil cake 
meal. .$'2.40; bran. $1.00; middlings, 
$1.7.1. w. u. J, 
Canada. 
1. It is indeed pcs'uliar and unfortunate 
that your cow has practically stopjied giv¬ 
ing milk from both of her front cpuirters. 
It has been this way so long now I know 
of norbing you can do except to chance it 
that she will come back after freshening 
again. Quite frequently this is the case. 
2. I note that your calf is now about 
one month old ; I jiresume you are still 
feeding it some milk. Make up a calf 
meal of equal parts linseed meal, hominy 
feed or cornmeal, middlings and dried 
blood. The milk should be eijt down 
gradnally and this meal fed in warm 
water. Normally at the time u calf is 
one month old, it could be getting 2 to 4 
lbs. milk per day iind 14 ounces of the 
meal in G lbs. of water. At 40 days of 
age the milk feeding is stopped and the 
grain ineroa.sed to a pound a day in 7 to 8 
lbs. of water. As the calf grows older 
continue .slightly to increase the meal and 
water. Be careful not to overfeed. At 
two to three months of iige the meal may 
be fed dry and the calf given water ad lib. 
Feed c*alf good (piality of inix'cd hay or 
rowen for roughage. 
,3. A grain ration for your cow would 
be iis follows: 3 jiarts wheat bran. 1 
part middlings, % part oil meal, 1 part 
oats, one part corn chops. Mix this up 
and add 1 lb. coar.se fine salt to each 100 
lbs. of mixture. Feed at rate of 1 lb. per 
day for each ,3 to .3^ lbs. milk. Feed 
what clover hay cow will clean np in 
good shape. This will amount to 18 or

Ill-flavored Cream 
Could you tell me wliy the cream gets 
rancid in a few days though it does not 
SOUI-? I cannot manage to save enough 
for butter before it is strong iunl does 
not make good butter. The cow is two 
yeai's old and had the first calf last Sum¬ 
mer. _ if. B. .T. 
^'irginia. 
It quite frequently happens that a cow 
that has been milking for some time 
gives abiiorniiil milk to the extent that 
the cream from this milk de\elops a 
strong and sometimes even bitter taste. 
Your trouble will disappear when the 
cow freshens. ^ It would doubtless help 
some if the ration coutained some succu¬ 
lent feed such as silage, beets, or beet 
pulp, H. F. J.
