Beef Cattle 
tliat CDiTPspoiulent who says 
‘■llerol'oi’df; are the best cattle in the 
woi-lcV’ give us actual facts of sales iii the 
leading packing centers to justify his 
claims? They are a grand breed of stock, 
liiit the Polled Angus, Galloway and Short¬ 
horn will sell for as much money, and do 
every day, in the packing centers. That 
is the final test, not what a few sell for 
at public auction. T bought a bull calf six 
weeks ago that weighed 090 lbs. running 
with its mother; nothing but buffalo 
grass, nothing for either one since its 
hirth. c. Cl. 1!.

Skim-milk for Calf 
hat way would you suggest to fi'cd a 
calf about live weeks old? Should skim- 
milk be warm dr is it a good thing to 
cook the milk for a calf or just warm it 
with hot water? B. b. 
Wi.sconsin. 
\\'arm skim-milk from the separator 
is best for calf feeding. When this is not 
lio.ssible, warm milk to 90-100 degrees F. 
calf five weeks old. in addition to get¬ 
ting about 12 pounds of milk daily, 
should be eating good mixed or clover 
hay, ainl should ha\e about one-quarter 
pound of graiii fed dry. A good mixture 
is eiiual parts ground oats, bran and oil 
meal. ir. r. j. 
Feeding for Butter 
Will you advise me as to feeding 
grad*' .Tersey cows, for butter? T have 
jilenty of silage without ears. Also 
clover, a few beets, some cabbage, some 
barley, oats :md peas. 1 shtill be obliged 
to ))urchase the remaimb'r^ of feed. C'ot- 
tonseed is .$(!“< i)er ton. bran .$42, gluten 
oil meal .S.W. 'I'liese c-ows are till 
young- and in extra good condition. T 
have b<‘<‘n feeding cornstalks, clover hay 
and cabbag<‘. bran apd gluten. r. ir.

h'ecd about 2.“ i>onnds of silagt* per

with one feed and a small feed of cabbage 
with other. Gi\-e all clover ha.v cows 
will clean up. Make grain ration one 
))art ground barley, one part ground oats, 
one and one-half parts gluten, one jiart 
bi'.'in. and one part citttonseed meal. Add 
one per cent siilt to mixture in making it 
up. In your letter you state you have 
barley, oats and jieas. T have presumed 
you mean baib'.v and oat grain, but you 
may i)ossibly mean oat and pea ha.v. If 
so. feed alternately oat and pea and 
clover hay and put in one part bran in

I Jerseys for Net Profiis 
You’re in the dairy business for 
profit—the net profit that your 
herd has made you at the end of 
the year will determine the size 
of your tank account. Jerseys 
yield the largest returns from ev¬ 
ery ounce of feed—proved by tests 
at two great expositions. Jersey 
milk averages 5.3% butter fat, 9.1% 
solids not fat—highest of all breeds. Buy a Jersey bull.
