'THE PAPEC PLAN 
* is for you to “ own your 
own” ensilage cutter. The 
individually owned Papec Ensi¬ 
lage Cutter will pay a clear 
profit of $100 to $200 a year 
for each silo. 
** Own your own” Papec— 
just as you “ own your own ” 
binder, mower, horse and 
buggy or automobile—be¬ 
cause when you need it, you 
NEED it at once. And by 
having it right at hand you 
soon save enough to pay for 
it. You can fill your silo 
when the corn is just right; 
and you can refill it so that 
you enter the feeding season 
with a silo four-fourths full — 
not one-fourth empty as a result 
of settling. 
Papec Ensilage Cutters are made 
in four sizes, any one of which will 
fill the highest silo. A 3 h. p. 
gasoline engine will operate tne 
smallest size.

the Alfalfa hay at $20 per ton. It will 
not. only effect a saving in the amount of 
grain recniired, hut cows will respond 
better on the Alfalfa hav. ith present 
prices of grain, $20 a ton is cheap for 
Alfalfa hay. You could then feed 80 to 
40 pounds of silage per head per day with 
what Alfalfa hay cows will clean up at 
three feeds. Make grain ration two parts 
ground oats, two parts middlings, one 
part gluten feed and one-half part each 
of cottonseed and linseed oil meal. Add 
one pound salt to each TOO pounds of 
feed. Feed a pound of grain to four to 
4% pounds of milk produced daily. 
With Timothy your grain would have 
to be richer in protein, such as two parts 
ground oats, one part gluten, two parts 
cottonseed meal and one part oil meal. 
You would need to feed a pound to each 
three to 3*4 pounds of milk.

Rations for Cows and Idle Horses 
Will you advise me the best feed ration 
for cows? I have a few dairy cows, 
fresh, and feed a ration of one part corn- 
meal. one part oil meal, two of cotton¬ 
seed. two of oats and two of bran. Have 
nothing in roughage but good Timothy 
hay. I also have a quantity of wheat 
straw. Is that of any feed value to cut 
and feed with grain to idle work horses? 
New York. j. a. c. 
With nothing but Timothy hay for 
roughage the grain must be high in pro¬ 
tein. as Timothy is lacking in this re¬ 
spect. Timothy hay is next to straw in 
being the poorest possible roughage with 
which to make milk, and it is most im¬ 
possible to balance a grain ration strictlv 
to feed with it without feeding cottonseed 
meal almost entirely. Your ration will 
be improved by adding one part gluten 
feed in place of the cornmeal and cutting 
oats and bran down to one part each. 
This would make it one part gluten, two 
parts cottonseed meal, one part linseed 
oil meal, one part oats and one part bran. 
You can use your wheat straw to ad¬ 
vantage with idle horses, blit some hay 
should be given besides. h. F. j. 
Ration for Heifers; Ringworm 
1. Is barley and oat straw (mostly bar¬ 
ley 1 mixed, good to feed heifers (coming 
two years old)? Some say barley straw 
is harmful. 2. Also, what will cure ring¬ 
worm of cattle? O. F. O. J. 
New York. 
1 Neither oat nor barley straw will have 
any harmful effect on the heifers. Oat 
straw is slightly more palatable and nu¬ 
tritious. The heifers can hardly be ex¬ 
pected to do as well as they should if 
forced to take straw as their only rough- 
age. . It would be better to feed some hay, 
particularly to any that may be due to 
freshen within a few months. Enough 
grain should also he fed to keep them in a 
good growing condition. It pays to have 
them freshen in good condition. 
2. As a treatment for ringworm, use 
scrubbing brush, soap and warm water to 
remove the scales; then apply every other 
day a 10 per cent carbolic acid in glvcer- 
ine, or tincture of iodine and tincture of 
iron, equal parts. h. f. j. 
Grain for Cows 
W hat shall I add to what I am feeding 
to make a good milk ration? Cows have 
good Alsike clover hay. silage, but not 
much corn in it, barley and oatmeal. 
New York. c. p. E. 
Make your grain ration 200 lbs. ground 
barley, 100 lbs. ground oats, 2(H) lbs. glu¬ 
ten feed, 100 lbs. cottonseed meal. Add 
1 lb. of salt to each 1(H) lbs. of feed when 
mixing it up. Feed a pound of grain to 
each 8^4 to 4 lbs. of milk produced 
daily. h. f. j. 
Rations for Milk and Beef 
Will you give a good balanced ration to 
feed milch cows with mixed hay and corn¬ 
stalks for roughage? Also balanced ra¬ 
tion for milch cows to be fitted for beef. 
Will it pay me to buy beet pulp to mix 
with the grain ration, and, if so, how 
much should I use? The cows are a 
mixed lot of Holsteins, Jerseys and 
Guernseys. Should I feed grain in pro¬ 
portion to milk given? j. g. r. 
New York. 
Feed cows what mixed hay they will 
clean up morning and afternoon, and 
cornstalks at noon and after supper. 
Make grain ration two parts wheat bran 
or ground oats, two parts cottonseed meal, 
one-half part oilmeal. one part gluten feed 
and two parts dried beet pulp if you can 
get it. Add a pound of salt to each 100 
lbs. of mixture when mixing it up. Feed 
a pound of the grain mixture to 314 lbs. 
of milk, or thereabouts. 
For a more fattening ration use two 
parts of ground oats or barley, two parts 
cottonseed meal, one part gluten feed and 
two parts cornmeal or hominy, and one 
part dried beet pulp. Feed 10 to 15 lbs. 
grain a day, besides all hay and corn¬ 
stalks they will clean up. Supply salt as 
in case of first ration. k. f. j.

FOR FOOD CONSERVATION 
The Biq Profit Maker 
that Pays for Itself 
IN MORE than 60,000 farms the 
Indiana Silo has already paid for 
itself in crops saved, in fatter cat¬ 
tle, in better milk, and is returning big 
profits to every owner, every year. 
High meat, milk and butter prices 
make it doubly important to preserve 
the full food value of your corn—to 
keep it succulent, whole and tasty. 
These prices increase the profits from the 
iNSifiPA 
One year’s saving with an Indiana 
under present conditions more than pay 
back the investment. And the silo can 
do the saving before you pay for it. 
Our large purchasing power enables us to supply better 
materials and better workmanship than can be had in silos 
that cost more. Ask the owners of Indiana Silos in your 
neighborhood. Prove to yourself that there is no silage bet¬ 
ter than that made in an Indiana. It’s a big profit maker for 
your farm, and lasts a lifetime.

FOR FOOD PRODUCTION 
Retained After-birth 
Cows can be made to clean easily 
without using force. 
When cows do not clean properly after 
calving, it indicates a germ infection which 
is likely to run through the entire herd and 
result in Abortion and Barrenness. 
The after-birth should be removed at once 
without force by means of the B-K douche 
and the cow treated to prevent her becoming 
an aborter or sterile. Authorities state that 
while there is no absolute cure for abortion 
and sterility, nevertheless the infection can 
be controllea by prompt treatment and the 
animal saved for successful breeding. 
B-K is scientifically correct for this work. 
Used as a douche for the uterus, it quickly 
brings the after-birth, dissolves the slimy 
albuminous matter, kills the germs, stops 
discharges and controls the infection. B-K 
does not cause straining, but is soothing and 
heals the tissues. 
Send for “evidence” and free Bulletin No. 
52 “Contagious Abortion.” If your dealer 
docs cot have B-K send us his name.
