ONG-TIME production tests prove a cow through and through. 
J It’s what she does month after month, and year after year 
at counts. There are more Jerseys on yearly test than all other 
eeds combined. Many Jerseys actually produce more pounds of 
butterfat per year than their own weight! 
Investigate these profit cows that milk earlier 
and ionger and have the shortest “dry period.

Official Milk Tests 
Will you kindly toll mo where I can 
got my milk tested? I don’t think I am 
getting a fair test where I take my milk. 
New York. F. s. 
Under the law introduced by Senator 
Towner you are entitled to demand that 
the creamery keep two samples of your 
milk for fat test, and you can make a 
choice of the two. You may tlieu send 
it to the Dairy Bureau, Cornell Univer¬ 
sity, Ithaca, N. Y., and have it tested 
without expense to you. It is a good plan 
to have this done occasionally to make 
sure of your test. 
Milk for Calf 
I have a young heifer calf that I would 
like to raise, and as this is my first ex¬ 
perience at raising one, I would like to 
get more information. The calf is four 
months old. I allowed her to nurse for 
five weeks, and then took her off the cow 
and fed her the separator skim-milk with 
calf meal up to the present tii~e. She 
has grown well and is a large heifer for 
her age. I wish to get two small pigs 
to put on the manure pile. Would you 
advise taking the milk from the calf and 
feeding her the usual amount of calf 
meal in a little grain, or would I better 
continue feeding her the milk? I have 
quite a few small potatoes and other 
waste that I should feed to the pigs. 
Maine. r. l. a. 
It would not be wise wholly to stop 
feeding milk to the calf. Possibly some 
of it can be spared for the pigs, but it 
would be better if you could obtain fac¬ 
tory skim-milk or buttermilk for them. 
Iu addition to milk and a little calf meal, 
allow the heifer free access to whole oats, 
wheat bran and oilmeal from a self-feeder, 
in addition to feeding good clover or Al¬ 
falfa hay. A little sound corn silage 
also may be fed, gradually increasing the 
amount as the calf grows. At all times 
allow clean drinking water. The pigs 
also should he fed from a self-feeder ou 
wheat middlings, ground rye or barley, 
shelled corn and tankage.

About six weeks ago T had a cow 
freshen. Her udder was not at all hard 
before, and seemed all right, but after she 
freshened one side of her udder was hard, 
and all I could get from that side was 
thick yellow stuff. I bathed it with warm 
water, then rubbing it dry, I rubbed hot 
lard in. The milk is good now that 
comes, hut does not give but about half 
as much as from the other teats. Do you 
think she will coine all right next time 
she comes fresh? L. w. G. 
New York. 
It is fortunate indeed that the cow is 
now giving some normal milk from the 
affected quarter of her udder, for the 
usual course in such cases is to go from 
bad to worse, until the quarter eventually 
ceases to secrete normal milk and dis¬ 
charges* muco-purulent liquid which con¬ 
tains germs that may spread the disease 
to other cows. We very much fear that 
the cow will be subject to repeated at¬ 
tacks of the disease or at least have a 
recurrence of the attack at a subsequent 
calving. If you find that other attacks 
come on, and she does uot prove profitable 
in the dairy, it would be best to dry off 
the milk flow and fit her for the butcher, 
or to let a calf suck, if y i think that will 
pay. See other anew on garget in
