Things Not Included 
in Tioga Dairy Feeds 
In buying Dairy Feed it is just as essential to consider what 
is not in the feed as to know what is in it. 
These are some of the things that are not in Tioga Dairy Feeds. 
There is no waste material or filler of any kind:—We have no 
by-products to get rid of in Tioga Dairy Feeds. 
There is nothing contained which does not serve a definite 
purpose:—Every ingredient is used with the express purpose ol 
making the feed as good as it can be made. 
There is no substitution of a poorer feed at a cheaper price : 
When changes are made in Tioga Dairy Feeds they are made to 
give you exactly the same standard of nutrition at lower cost. 
There is no addition to the price to cover the cost of prem¬ 
iums :—Premiums cost money and some one must pay for them. 
We never sell more Tioga Feeds than we can deliver and 
never cut quality. 
Study Tioga Dairy Feeds from every standpoint; judge them 
by what they contain and by what they do not contain, but above 
all judge them by results they will give. 
Use each with the roughage as intended : 
RED BRAND TIOGA DAIRY FEED 
withjlow protein succulent roughage[ 
WHITE BRAND TIOGA DAIRY FEED 
with medium protein dry roughage 
BLUE BRAND TIOGA DAIRY FEED 
with high protein dry roughage. 
If your dealer does not have Tioga Dairy Feeds advise us

As Necessary as 
The Horse ForK 
You wouldn’t dream of putting up hay without 
using a horse fork. Time and labor cost too much 
to waste them in hand pitching. But how about 
hand forking in the hay mow? 
Isn’t it just as costly, just as wasteful? And 
■ it is no longer necessary. Equip your hay fork— 
any make—with a Callahan Hay Guide and a 
fourteen-year-old boy can put away hay better 
than three husky men with forks. 
"Saves Hand Forking" in the Mow 
The Callahan Hay Guide makes it 
easy to mow away hay. A rope 
threaded through the forkful per¬ 
mits the operator to drop the hay 
exactly where wanted. No hand 
forking. 
This device, invented by a practical farmer, uses 
the force of gravity to put the hay exactly where it 
is wanted. There will be no hard center to “fire-fang. 
And when you pitch out the hay it will come out 
without binding. This means a big saving in doing 
chores or in baling the hay. . 
The Callahan Hay Guide is simple and practical. 
It will pay for itself in a week and last as long as 
your hay fork, perhaps longer. Two years of actual 
use have proved it thoroughly practical. 
You can-prove all this for yourself without risk¬ 
ing a dollar. Order a Callahan Hay Guide at once 
from vour dealer. If he doesn’t have it write us di¬ 
rect. Test the outfit thoroughly in your own barn, it 
not fully satisfied return it in good order and get 
your money. This offer expires June 1st. . 
Now is the time to improve your haying outht.

Live Stock Questions 
Answered by Prof. F. C. Minkler 
Feeding Young Cow 
I have purchased a three-year-old 
Jersey heifer. I expect her to freshen 
in February. She is in poor condition, 
although of good size. I have cornstalks 
and oat hay and cobmeal. I would like 
to know how to take care of her. F. II. 
New Yorkk. 
A ration of straw and cornstalks is 
ill-suited for a dairy cow during any 
stage of her lactation or dry period. If 
you have plenty of ground oats and corn 
and cobmeal then it is proposed that you 
add equal parts of wheat bran ti this 
mixture, supplementing this with . 15 per 
cent of old process linseed meal. This 
ration is both bulky and satisfying and 
when supplemented with a good grade of 
roughage and fed to your cows they will 
increase in weight, improve in condition, 
and approach calving time in good physi¬ 
cal appearance. 
•Since this heifer is only three years 
old care must be exercised to make sure 
that she grows out fully, and it may be 
possible to give her an extended dry after 
her first lactation period; this depends, 
of course, upon her persistency as a 
milker. As we have often stated, oat or 
wheat straw is worth as much under a 
cow as it is in the cow; hence, you will 
readily appreciate the importance of pro¬ 
viding a good grade of roughage. Corn¬ 
stalks are superior ^to Timothy hay. 
Young animals especially need leafy 
roughage so that they can obtain the min¬ 
eral matter so necessary for growth and 
development. 
Grain with Beet Pulp 
. Will you advise a balanced ration for 
cows? As my cream goes to a butter 
factory I am anxious to obtain the best 
results. My roughage consists of Tim¬ 
othy hay and a little clover mixed, but 
mostly Timothy. Can I use moistened 
beet pulp to any advantage? I can get 
cottonseed and linseed meal, cornmeal, 
corn and oats, bran, middlings and dif¬ 
ferent kinds of mixed dairy feeds. 
New York. c. s. H. 
Beet pulp is a carbohydrate feed con¬ 
taining scarcely as much carbohydrate as 
corn or hominy meal, and very little pro¬ 
tein. When moistened for 12 hours pre¬ 
vious to feeding it provides succulence 
for a ration. Then, too, it is known that 
beet pulp increases the digestibility and 
palatablility of other grain combinations 
and • creates a desire on the part of the 
animal to consume an increased amount 
of feed. In addition to being bulky, it is 
extremely rich in mineral matter. I fan¬ 
cy one reason why beet pulp is so popular 
in dairy rations is because it actually 
carries a surprisingly large amount of 
calcium. 
Where you have Timothy hay carrying 
very little clover and find it necessary to 
purchase all of your basic ingredients, it 
is believed that the following combina- 
titon would he both economical and pro¬ 
ductive of good results: 300 lbs. of corn 
or hominy meal, 200 lbs. ground oats, 150 
lbs. bran, 200 lbs. linseed meal, 150 lbs. 
cottonseed meal. 
If the cows yield more than 40 lbs. of 
milk per day, I should add 100 lbs. of 
gluten meal or 150 lbs. of gluten feed. 
Hominy, under average conditions, is 
priced a little under cornmeal and it has 
substantially the same feeding value. If 
oats are expensive and of poor quality 
and it is possible for you to obtain some 
buckwheat middlings or some distillers’ 
grains, then these two products might re¬ 
place the oats. 
Bear in mind that variety of feeding 
stuffs is essential and that the protein 
content of the grain ration should vary 
between 20 and 24 per cent in quantity. 
Feed approximately 1 lb. of the grain 
mixture for each 3^4 lbs. of milk pro¬ 
duced per cow per day, making sure to 
allow the animals all of the roughage that 
they will consume. . It would certainly 
pay you to feed some beet pulp in addi¬ 
tion to the grain ration provided in case 
you have no beets or silage.
