Dairying Without Pasture 
Will you advise mo on running a small 
dairy, say about 10 cows? I wish to 
retail the milk. I have about 3*4 miles 
to haul We have about 00 acres of land 
and no pasture. Can a man make a profit 
by feeding the envs tlio year round, and 
how should it bo done? c. w. L. 
Pennsylvania. 
If you can put a high-grade milk on 
the market and got a special trade, you 
should bo able to make a profit from your 
dairy. You should have your cows tuber- 
oulin-tosted, and then advertise the fact 
hat you are soiling milk from tuberculin 
I os - ted cows. Your stables, of course, will 
have to comply with the board of health 
regulations of the town in which you sell 
your milk. On C»0 acres of land you 
should be able to grow enough roughage 
for your herd, as well as some corn. This 
Spring it would seem advisable for you to 
sow some soiling crops. It. is rather late 
now for oats and peas, but Hoy beans 
planted about May 15 will give you some¬ 
thing to feed by July 15. and corn planted 
the same time will afford some green feed 
Tor you through August. You should 
plan to put up silos this Fall that will 
furnish silage for your herd the year 
round. Now is a good time to Jay in r 
supply of feed for next Winter. My ad¬ 
vice would be to plan on the following 
ration: 400 lbs. eorumeal or hominy, 
200 lbs. bran, 200 lbs. ground oats, 200 
lbs. cottonseed monk 100 lbs. oilmeal. 
This ration should he* fed at the rate of 
1 lb. grain to every 3 lbs. of milk.

Improving a Ration 
T am feeding my cows cornstalks and 
i little mixed hay. Will you let. me know 
the best mixture to produce milk, and how 
many pounds of feed to quart of milk: 
Freehold, N. J. o. k. 
Your roughage has very little protein 
value, and in order to get a balanced feed 
it will be necessary to use a rather nar 
row ration, or one high in protein. A 
succulent food, such as soaked beet pulp 
would, no doubt, increase your milk pro¬ 
duction. 1 would suggest a ration con¬ 
sisting of three parts cornmeal, two parts 
oats, two parts bran, two parts oilmeal 
and two parts cottonseed meal. Three 
pounds of beet pulp should be fed to eaeli 
cow as a source of succulence. When 
soaked it will weigh about 12 lbs. The 
dry ration should lie fed at the rate of 
lb. of grain to each 3% lbs. of milk.

Air Space in Cow Stable 
Will you i ell me how many cubic feel 
of air space is needed for a cow' when 
selling grade A milk? E. S. w\ 
New York. 
The score card used by boards of health 
of various cities require 500 cubic feet 
air space per cow for a perfect score. 
Where there is less than 300 cubic feet 
per cow no score is allowed. .T. TV. n.

A Jersey Among Holsteins 
Responding to M. O.'s desire, to hear 
ibout Jersey cattle. I recall a dairy farm 
where Jerseys and only’ Jerseys were 
«*pt, while the surrounding farms within 
a radius of many miles were thickly pop¬ 
ulated with Ilolstein breeders and dairy¬ 
men. The reason for the existing condi¬ 
tion was that Oneida (Vanity. New York. 
appeued to he close to the Mohawk Val¬ 
ley, one of tlie places connected with tlir- 
liistory of first Ilolstein importations. In 
fact, the Ilolstein farmers of that region 
lim that the Mohawk ('alley was the 
only spot in the United States approach¬ 
ug in topography and climate nearest to 
the home of the Ilolstein-Friesian cattle. 
At any rate, the modest, progressive and 
venerable Jersey farm 1 mention hap 
pened to be situated in this famous patch 
of the Ilolstein world. It is owned by a 
Jersey breeder, F. .7. Jones and his wife. 
Air. Jones, a skilful dairyman, told me 
about his Jerseys; how, in the very begin¬ 
ning, tlie Ilolstein neighbors were skeptical 
about his plan to enter the Jersey busi 
ness; how he managed to secure a good 
market for his Jersey butter, as Utica is 
within an automobile's reach from his 
farm. He would deliver his Jersey pro¬ 
ducts once or twice a week to the big 
hotels and restaurants of Utica, where lie 
got a.fancy retail price for his butter. lie 
utilized the skim-milk on the farm, using 
some of it for raising the calves and feed¬ 
ing the rest to the hogs. In general, he 
expressed his satisfaction. 
Mrs. .Tones, in her turn, told me about 
some of the high producers they have, 
mentioning the fact that at one time 
they got an 8 per cent bulterfat test, from 
one cow. Here is a case of a man who 
favored Jerseys, got started, keeps it up. 
and is making good, although in a Hol¬ 
stein section. There is no reason why M. 
O., who prefers the Jersey cow, cannot 
make good by using judgment and adapt¬ 
ing his Jersey enterprise to existing con¬ 
ditions in his neighborhood, so as to make 
the best of the investment. B. M.

BUTTERMILK 
for Hogs and Poultry 
Experienced feeders know that there is 
no better feed for growing hogs and poul¬ 
try than buttermilk. A regular supply, 
however, has been difficult or impossible 
to obtain and feeders have had to do with¬ 
out it. A process has now been worked out 
for putting this valuable feed on the 
market in a condensed form, called SUM I SOLID 
BUTTERMILK. By simply adding water you g'-i 
real, genuine buttermilk wiih all its great feed 
value. 
Sernt-Solid Buttermilk , like fresh buttermilk, is an 
appetizer and tonic, as well as a feed, and 
keeps hoas in prime condition. 
The lings consume it eagerly and thrive on it. 
it is a wonderful tonic and conditioner as well as 
a most valuable feed. Readers of Rural New 
Yorker interested in gelling rapid growth anil 
good, healthy stock should feed SEMI-SOLID 
BUTTERMILK. Write today for further infor¬ 
mation on Semi-Solid Buttermilk and facts about
