Various Feeding Questions 
1. Assuming I have on my farm clover 
or pea hay. silage and corn fodder, and 
must buy my other feed from among corn- 
meal, ground corn.' ground oats, bran, 
middlings, linseed oil (old process), cot¬ 
tonseed meal (43 per cent protein), glu¬ 
ten feed, which should I select for best 
results, and in what proportion should 
they be mixed for my dairy cows? 2. 
When milking cows are on good pasture 
and receive no silage or fodder or hay, 
what grain concentrates should be fed, 
the selection to be derived from those 
feeds mentioned in No. 1? 3. What 
criticism, if any, lies against silage, pea 
hay and corn fodder, fed with the fol¬ 
lowing concentrates: 400 lbs. each ground 
oats and ground corn, 200 lbs. bran. 150 
lbs. gluten feed, 100 lbs. each linseed oil 
(old process), and 100 lbs. cottonseed 
meal (43 per cent protein)? 4. What 
constitutes the feeding ratio so frequently 
referred to and how is the same derived 
or computed from the sundry feeds that 
are available? ii. d.n. 
Virginia. 
1. Assuming that your first question 
relates to Winter conditions, let me say 
that clover and pea hay, fed in conjunc¬ 
tion with silage and corn fodder, cannot 
be improved upon as a basis for a ration 
for dairy cows. Then, from the other in¬ 
gredients which you have mentioned, I 
should choose the following and combine 
of different factors. As you know, more 
than 50 per cent of the feed which a 
dairy cow consumes is employed for 
maintenance. All that a cow can be in¬ 
duced to consume ab,ove that required for 
maintenance can be used for milk pro¬ 
duction. No doubt you realize that pro¬ 
tein is that constituent of feeds necessary 
for the building of blood and muscle; 
that the representative protein carriers 
are linseed meal, cottonseed, gluten meal 
and gluten feed. 
Grain with Mixed Feed 
Will you advise me what ration I 
should feed my dairy? I have hay, mix¬ 
ture of Timothy, clover and Alfalfa, and 
clear Alfalfa ; also silage. I am feeding 
this mixture, 100 lbs. bran, 100 lbs. mid¬ 
dlings, 200 lbs. mixed feed. My cows 
average about 32 lbs. milk to the cow. 
The cows are in first-class condition, but 
I do not feel they are producing as they 
should for the amount of grain I am feed¬ 
ing. and the cost. This year I have to 
buy my grain, so could you tell me what 
other grains I could mix with oats to sow 
so I would have a good grain ration next 
year? W. H. V. 
Jefferson Co., N. Y. 
For cows producing as much as 32 lbs. 
of milk a mixture consisting of 100 lbs. 
of bran, 100 lbs. middlings, 200 lbs. mixed 
Satisfaction with a 
The accompanying picture shows a 
bunch of Delaine Merino sheep, showing 
what we breed and keep Why do we 
keep this breed? Perhaps the beet reason 
is that I like that breed the best. They 
are longer lived than the coarse breeds, 
and hold their length of staple and weight 
of fleece longer. I think, with the price 
of wool, they are the ideal general-pur¬ 
pose breed. As to the care of those in 
Delaine Merino Flock— 
the picture, they wintered on Timothy 
hay till Feb. 1. about % pint of corn 
from then until April 1, and about the 
same part of oats and bran added through 
lambing season. Am located so I can 
house them daytimes through the very 
hot weather in August and September, 
and have had no lung or stomach worms 
since. 0. H. perry.

them in this proportion : 300 lbs. of corn- 
meal. 200 lbs. ground oats, 150 lbs. bran, 
150 lbs. linseed meal, 100 lbs. cottonseed 
meal, 100 lbs. gluten feed. During the 
Summer it is not necessary to feed lin¬ 
seed meal and bran. Hence, if this feed 
is to be used as a basis for Summer feed¬ 
ing. I should limit it to corn, oats, cot¬ 
tonseed meal and gluten feed, combining 
them so that the mixture would figure out 
about 17 per cent of protein. 
2. A Summer mixture would result 
from the following combination : 400 lbs. 
of corn or hominy, 300 lbs. ground oats. 
150 lbs. cottonseed meal. 150 lbs. gluten 
feed. This of course is intended for cows 
in milk. If they are near the end of their 
lactation period and it is desired that 
they put on flesh rather than manufac¬ 
ture the maximum amount of milk, re¬ 
duce the cottonseed meal and the gluten 
meal by 100 lbs. 
3. There is no criticism against silage, 
pea hay and clover, fed as you have pro¬ 
posed, and as to whether the bulk of the 
protein should be obtained from the cot¬ 
tonseed meal or the gluten feed or the 
gluten meal, depends largely upon the 
question of price. There is an advan¬ 
tage in incorporating a minimum of 15 
per cent of linseed meal in a dairy ration, 
especially if it can be purchased at a rea¬ 
sonable figure. It has many advantages 
and it seems to correct the conditions 
that hinder efficient milk production. 
4. Feeding standards have been worked 
out by investigators based upon a number 
feed would not be desirable, nor would it 
tend to give satisfactory results. 
You can home-mix a combination which 
would be more desirable; in fact, a com¬ 
bination of 300 lbs. of corn or hominy 
meal. 200 lbs. oats, 100 lbs. bran. 200 lbs. 
cottonseed, 200 lbs. gluten meal is pro¬ 
posed. This for Summer feeding will 
give very good results and, if the cows, as 
you say, are in good flesh, the increased 
amount of protein which we have pro¬ 
vided here will not come amiss. They 
will gain in weight on this ration and 
ought to increase their flow of milk. 
When the next Winter season approaches 
I should add to this combination 150 lbs. 
of linseed meal and modify the cotton¬ 
seed meal and the gluten meal so that 
during the Winter they would be feeding 
what we term a 24 per cent protein feed. 
If you will let us know in the Fall the 
amount of the grains and the identity of 
the same which you have produced, we 
shall be very glad to suggest for you a 
combination of purchased feeds which 
will bring your homegrown feeds into bal¬ 
ance and enable you to produce milk dur¬ 
ing the Winter months with the greatest 
economy. 
“I hear you’ve had a fight with the 
Brown boy. ‘ Didn’t I tell you I’d punish 
you if you fought again?” asked the fath¬

chalantly. “Dad, you’d better take a look 
at what I did to that Brown kid before 
you start anything.” warned the youthful 
warrior.—Everybody’s Magazaine.
