Pearl’s Dot. 
World Champion Guernsey. Class AA 
Two More Great Records 
Brought About by Good Feeding 
Up at Shorewood Farm, Crystal Bay, Minn., they 
feed Buffalo Corn Gluten Feed to their herd of 
pure bred Guernseys because they want two results 
above all others: heavy production and good health. 
Apparently they get both: Pearl’s Dot is the cham¬ 
pion Guernsey cow of Minnesota and the World’s 
Champion of Class AA, with 19602.5 lbs. milk, 965.8 
lbs. fat, 1 year. Cherub’s Cora of Shorewood a year 
ago established herself as champion of Class D with 
15498.9 lbs. milk, 869.5 lbs. fat, in 1 year, which record 
is today beaten by only one other. Each cow came 
out of her test in perfect shape. 
Whether your cows are grades or pare breds, the 
feeding of BUFFALO will show results in the milk pail 
almost immediately. And if you don’t want overpro¬ 
duction merely feed BUFFALO in smaller quantities— 
a chance to effect some real economy.

Rations for Maryland Herd 
Will you compound a ration for a num¬ 
ber of grade Holstein cows, fresh this 
Fall? I have at hand good corn silage, 
Alfalfa hay, corn stover and corn. I can 
buy bran at $1.50 per 100 lbs., 36 per 
cent cottonseed at $3.10, and flaxseed 
meal at $3.30. H. if. 
Maryland. 
By flaxseed meal we presume that you 
mean old process linseed meal. For Hol¬ 
stein cows that were fresh in the Fall we 
should use the ingredients mentioned in 
the following proportions: Wheat bran, 
250 lbs. ; 36 per cent cottonseed meal, 200 
lbs.; linseed meal, 150 lbs.; hominy or 
cornmeal, 300 lbs.; gluten feed, 100 lbs. 
If it is more desirable to use more lin¬ 
seed meal than to add the gluten, then the 
linseed meal can be increased to 200 lbs., 
and 100 lbs. of ground oats or its equiv¬ 
alent in brewers’ grains or buckwheat 
feed substituted. I hope that you have 
some good Alfalfa or clover hay to feed 
in conjunction with this mixture. 
Various Live Stock Questions 
Will you let me know what you think 
of this shovel mixture : 200 lbs. hominy, 
100 lbs. mixed feed, 100 lbs. oilineal. 100 
lbs. gluten. 100 lbs. cottonseed, 100 lbs. 
bran? This is fed with Timothy hay hav¬ 
ing a little clover in it. Would a 25 per 
cent protein mixed feed be better? The 
other runs about 21 per cent. The cost 
is over 3c per lb. The cows are mixed 
Jersey and Holstein; majority are get¬ 
ting low. as they freshen in the Spring, 
two next montli. I wish a ration for 
yearlings and five-months calves; also for 
a sow with a litter of 11. Have a little 
skim-milk which I use. P. H. s. 
New York. 
Of course you realize that the cream 
line in your market milk cannot be modi¬ 
fied materially by making changes in the 
ration fed. In other words, it , is impos¬ 
sible to obtain Jersey milk from a Hol¬ 
stein cow, even though yoi\ fed to the 
Holstein cow the identical mixture that 
seemingly enabled the Jersey to produce 
milk testing 5 y 2 per cent of butterfat. 
The average Holstein on the same feed 
will go right along and continue to pro¬ 
duce milk testing 3% per cent of butter- 
fat. The ability to produce milk high or 
low in butterfat is dependent upon breed¬ 
ing and inheritance rather than upon 
conditions of environment, care, feed, or 
management. 
The combination «f hominy, mixed feed, 
bran and protein concentrates identified 
will yield about 22 per cent of crude pro¬ 
tein. I am assuming that the mixed feed 
referred to is a combination of bran and 
middlings, and that it carries about 16 
per cent of protein. I am also assuming 
that the gluten is gluten meal, rather 
than gluten feed, and that it will carry 
about 40 per cent of crude protein. This 
mixture would be manifestly superior i.o 
the brand of mixed feed mentioned. Any 
prepared feed that carries more than 24 
per cent of protein usually contains an 
excessive amount of cottonseed meal. 
Were I to suggest modifications in the ra¬ 
tion listed, I should substitute 100 lbs. 
of wheat bran for the mixed feed. In- 
Are lice eating up wdiat you sorely 
need to make a profit from your cows? 
Many a “poor milker” during the 
Winter months is carrying a burden 
of lice. They live among the hair 
roots and sap her Vitality and produc¬ 
tiveness. 
Strike lice off your list of boarders 
and your cows will respond with a full 
milk pail. 
Graylawn Farm LOUSE-CHASE 
means a sure end to lice on cows, 
horses, swine, or any farm animal. A 
little of this wonderful powder dust¬ 
ed at the hair roots kills every louse 
and mite. Only certain parts along 
back, etc., need be treated. Simple, 
safe, inexpensive—and you are pro¬ 
tected by our guarantee of “satisfac¬ 
tion or money-back, plus 10%.”

Just as the reaper 
displaced the scythe 
so does modern farm 
use demand 
a salt that is 
Quick dissolving! 
T ODAY we know that salt is 
not “just salt.” Colonial Special 
Farmers Salt is a soft, porous flake 
that dissolves instantly and does 
not lump like ordinary salt. 
Compared with the value of the finished 
product your salt cost is a small item. Cheap 
salt is a dangerous economy, a single loss 
will cost you more than the difference in 
price of a whole season’s supply of Colonial 
Special Farmers Salt. Use it and be safe. 
Colonial Special Farmers Salt is always 
packed in a branded 70-pound bag. The 
linenized material makes fine toweling.

COLONIAL SMali SALT 
Colonial Special Farmers Salt beats Block Salt for cattle feeding. It is pure, evaporated Salt— 
never causes sore tongues or sore mouths—always insures animals getting enough. 
crease the oilmeal to 150 lbs. While this 
rearrangement would not materially in¬ 
crease the protein, it would increase the 
quality of the combination. Fifteen per 
icent of linseed meal is about the mini¬ 
mum that ought to be incorporated in any 
mixture. 
For the young animals not in milk T 
should use a mixture consisting of equal 
parts of hominy, oats and brail; to which 
has been added 10 per cent of linseed 
meal. 
For the sow nursing a litter of pigs I 
should use a mixture consisting of five 
parts of corn, three parts of white mid¬ 
dlings, one part of oats and one part of 
digester tankage. If you have enough i 
skim-milk so that you can feed 4 or 5 lbs. 
of the skim-milk with each pound of 
jgrain, then it is not necessary to add the 
digester tankage to the mixture; other¬ 
wise this amount of animal protein is 
necessary.
