Live Stock Matters 
Conducted By Prof. F. C. Minkler 
Corn and Cob Mea! for Cows 
Will you give me a balanced ration for 
cows, using corn and cob meal (of which 
I have an abundance) as a nucleus? No 
ground oats used. K. H. 
New York. 
Assuming that your request is for a 
ration suitable for feeding dairy cows 
during the Summer months, and that they 
have access to abundant nasture. I would 
suggest the use of five parts of cornmeal, 
three parts of gluten, and one part of 
wheat bran. This combination makes it 
possible to utilize corn in generous quan¬ 
tity, and, while it is supplemented by a 
corn by-product, gluten, nevertheless is 
rich in protein and is well adapted to 
Summer feeding. If the pasture is not 
abouudant, then the use of some Alfalfa 
or clover hay will increase the milk flow, 
t should feed one pound of this mixture 
for each four or five pounds of milk pro¬ 
duced per day. 
Feed for Pigs on Pasture 
I have about 50 pigs that would over¬ 
age in weight about 100 lbs. each. These 
pigs have a large orchard to run in. 
where there is abundance of Bluegrnss 
and White clover. We have skim-milk, 
also some blood and offal from a slaugh¬ 
ter-house to feed them. If I feed the 50 
though if you want the most rapid gains 
in the shortest possible length of time, the 
pigs should be fed practically all that they 
will clean up with relish. Experience 
will prove to you that by limiting the 
amount of grain you will increase the 
amount of foraging, and this practice 
should be followed during the early por¬ 
tion of the season, especially during the 
time when the pigs are growing and build¬ 
ing a frame preparatory to covering with 
flesh later in the season. If you feed the 
by-product from the local slaughter-house 
you are aware that you increase the pos¬ 
sibility of introducing hog cholera or tu¬ 
berculosis. If your animals are protect¬ 
ed by serum, or provided that they have 
been treated with serum and virus, the 
danger would be less pronounced. 
Abcrdeen-Angus Cattle in the East 
As an evidence that beef cattle are 
gaining in popularity throughout the 
East, one has but to refer to the recent 
sale of Aberdeen-Angus held at Albany, 
N. Y., in which 22 animals were con¬ 
signed by the various breeders and sold 
at an average price of $293 apiece. The 
bulk of the purchases went to breeders in 
New England, and if we judge correctly, 
were purchased by farmers whose previous 
interest has been centered upon milk 
production. The Aberdeen-Angus breed 
is particularly popular in the corn belt, 
Taking u A 7 up After Dinner 
pigs 300 bu. ear corn, how much pork 
should I expect the corn to produce? If 
I grind the corn and feed it in slop, how 
much pork should I expect it to make 
that way, or would it be better to soak the 
corn and feed it on the ear? e. b. n. 
If your pigs are thrifty and are good 
feeders, and provided they have access to 
Blue-grass pasture, and the corn is sup¬ 
plemented with skim-milk and a small 
percentage of by-product from the local 
slaughter-house, 400 lbs. of corn ought 
to yield 100 lbs. of gain. Hence, figur¬ 
ing 70 lbs. to the bushel, the 21.000 lbs. 
of corn, when fed to market pigs, ought 
to produce 5.000 lbs. of pork. 
There would be no advantage in grind¬ 
ing, soaking or preparing this corn in any 
way for the pigs. They could eat it off 
from the cob just as well, and, in fact, 
evidence is abundant suggesting that ear 
eorn, when properly supplemented with 
skim-milk and tankage, will produce just 
as good results when fed on the ear as 
would obtain in case it was ground or 
soaked. However, there is something to 
he gained in the way of variety by grind¬ 
ing the eorn. and it has been demon¬ 
strated repeatedly that the actual con¬ 
sumption of corn in pounds per day is 
greater in amount than when the corn 
is shelled or fed on the ear. It has not 
been demonstrated, however, that the cost 
of shelling, grinding or preparing is re¬ 
turned with a profit sufficient to pay for 
the labor and expense involved in this 
preparation. 
Your practice of keeping tin* pigs’ ap¬ 
petite on edge is a commendable one, al¬ 
evidencing as it does a popular type of 
beef animal possessed of quality, finish 
and feeding qualities. We have every 
reason to believe that in these sections of 
the East, where the Winters are not too 
severe, the. farmers are going to turn to 
beef production, and no doubt the Angus 
will eventually prove as popular in these 
parts as it is in the corn belt. 
Clarence W. Eckardt, who owns the 
International Grand Champion Aberdeen- 
Angus bull, is largely responsible for the 
success of this sale. The pamphlet re¬ 
cently distributed by him pointing the 
way to success in beef production is based 
largely upon his own experience, and is 
worthy of wide circulation. 
Garget 
A heifer 28 months old had her first 
calf four weeks ago. On the right side 
of the udder by the hind teat she has a 
lump about as big as a lieu’s egg. When 
I rub it the milk comes out in small 
quantities, but the calf will not suck from 
that teat. Ever since her calf was born 
I have rubbed and squeezed the lump 
three times a day, but nothing seems to 
help take the lump away. What is your 
advice? J- m. z. 
You should have the heifer tested with 
tuberculin, as it may be that tuberculosis 
is the cause of the lump described. If 
so. the milk is dangerous for persons or 
animals. If the disease is not found 
nresent the condition is incurable garget 
(mammitis). from infect ion. Hub iodine 
ointment into the lump every day. a. s. a.
