This  is  exactly  what  the  Jamesway  Direct  to 
Farmer  sales  policy  means — a  better  barn, 
planned  exactly  to  fit  your  needs,  better  labor 
saving  barn  equipment,  and  quicker,  more  satis¬ 
factory  service  based  upon  the  low  selling  cost 
of  dealing  direct  with  Jamesway  Engineers. 
*  Furthermore,  this  service  is  brought  right  to 
your  barn  with  the  Jameswayman — our  repre¬ 
sentative  in  your  territory,  a  Jamesway  trained 
man  who  will  call  at  your  farm,  discuss  your 
needs,  make  suggestions  for  saving  labor,  time 
and  helping  you  to  make  more  money. 
Every  practical  dairyman — every  progressive  farmer 
knows  the  value  of  Jamesway  Equipment.  Admittedly, 
it  is  America's  quality  standard.  But,  until  you  meet 
the  Jameswayman,  until  you  get  the  new  Jamesway  book 
"What  We  Should  Know  About  Each  Other,”  you  can 
not  know  how  much  your  dollar  buys  in  equipment  and 
service  direct  from  Jamesway  Engineers. 
Service  That  Means 
Better  Barns  at  Lower  Cost 
Jamesway  _  planned  and 
equipped  dairy  barns  save  la¬ 
bor — save  time,  and  insure 
greater  profits  per  dollar  in¬ 
vested. 
Jamesway  sunny  hog  barns 
mean  warmth,  dryness,  sun¬ 
light,  ventilation,  safety  and 
profits.

Live  Stock  Questions 
Answered  by  Prof.  F.  C.  Minkler 
Faulty  Ration 
Could  you  tell  me  what  is  the  matter 
with  my  dairy  cows?  They  do  not  give 
the  milk  they  should  according  to  the 
feed.  I  am  now  feeding  300  lbs.  of 
ground  corn.  300  lbs.  ground  oats,  100 
lbs.  gluten  feed.  200  lbs.  bran,  100  lbs. 
oilmeal  and  10  lbs.  salt.  I  feed  1  lb.  of 
grain  for  every  3* * *4  quarts  of  milk.  I 
feed  silage  and  mixed  bay  for  roughage. 
Jefferson  Co.,  N.  Y.  F.  R.  z. 
One  reason  why  your  cows  are  not 
yielding  a  satisfactory  amount  of  milk  is 
due  no  doubt  to  the  fact  that  your  ration 
is  deficient  in  protein.  The  mixture  you 
are  now  feeding  carries  only  15%  per 
cent  of  crude  protein,  and  for  cows  yield¬ 
ing  as  much  as  30  lbs.  of  milk  per  day, 
with  the  roughage  and  succulence  avail¬ 
able,  the  ration  should  yield  between  20 
and  24  per  cent  of  protein.  It  is  sug¬ 
gested  that  you  double  the  amount  of 
gluten  feed,  increase  the  linseed  meal  by 
50  lbs.  and  add  200  lbs.  of  43  per  cent 
cottonseed  meal  to  your  mixture.  This 
will  provide  a  20  per  cent  protein  feed. 
Allow  the  cows  the  same  amount  of  the 
mixture  you  are  now  feeding.  Let  them 
have  all  the  hay  and  silage  that  they  will 
consume.  We  have  every  reason  to  be¬ 
lieve  that  your  production  will  increase. 
This  combination  is  intended  for  cows 
in  milk.  The  dry  cows  should  be  fed  a 
simplified  ration  consisting  of  equal  parts 
of  corn,  oats  and  bran  to  which  has  been 
added  15  per  cent  of  linseed  meal. 
Feeding  Rye;  Wind-broken  Horse 
1.  In  this  part  of  the  country  we  raise 
corn,  rye  and  oats.  Would  you  give  me 
a  balanced  ration  to  feed  cows  for  milk 
production  and  butterfat?  2.  We  have  a 
wind-broken  horse,  and  would  like  to 
know  of  any  posible  cure.  «r.  s. 
Pennsylvania. 
A  combination  of  corn,  rye  and  oats 
is  ill-suited  for  use  in  feeding  dairy  cows. 
All  of  these  products  are  starchy  or 
carbohydrate-carrying  feeds,  and  lack  the 
necessary  amount  of  protein  required  to 
maintain  the  dairy  cow’s  system  and  to 
produce,  in  addition,  a  satisfactory  sup¬ 
ply  of  milk.  While  the  analysis  of  rye 
seems  to  put  it  into  a  class  with  corn  and 
oats  as  a  feed  for  livestock,  it  does  not 
belong  there,  when  consideration  is  given 
to  feeding  either  cowrs  or  poultry.  It  best 
serves  for  swine-feeding  when  mixed  with 
corn  and  digester  tankage.  Since  the  war 
rye  has  been  used  more  extensively  as 
human  food,  and  it  is  almost  always  pos¬ 
sible  to  sell  the  rye  and  buy  some  such 
product  as  oilmeal  or  linseed  meal  ad¬ 
vantageously.  Especially  would  this  be 
true  where  it  is  desired  to  feed  dairy 
cows.  With  a  good  roughage  available 
and  corn  and  oats  constituting  largely  the 
basic  ration,  use  the  rollowing  ingredi¬ 
ents:  300  lbs.  oats,  200  lbs.  corn.  200 
lbs.  cottonseed,  200  lbs.  linseed,  100  lbs. 
bran. 
2.  There  is  very  little  that  can  be  done 
for  a  horse  with  broken  wind.  This  con¬ 
dition  does  not  interfere  with  Winter 
work,  but  it  does  interfere  with  the  ani¬ 
mal’s  activities  during  the  heated  Summer 
months.  Very  little  hay  or  bulky  feed 
should  be  used,  and  the  animal  should  be 
fed  largely  on  oats  and  bran.  If  the  ani¬ 
mal  is  young  and  valuable,  it  might  be 
worth  your  while  to  consult  a  veterinarian 
and  ask  him  to  perform  what  is  known  as 
the  “Adams”  operation  for  wind-broken 
animals. 
Ration  Without  Silage  or  Alfalfa 
I  have  23  cows,  most  of  them  newly 
fresh.  I  have  a  good  quality  clover  and 
Timothy  hay  ;  no  silage  or  Alfalfa.  Give 
a  ration  with  and  without  beet  pulp. 
New  York.  c.  N. 
The  dairyman  who  undertakes  to  pro¬ 
duce  milk  without  either  silage  or  legume 
hay  substantially  adds  to  his  own  prob¬ 
lem.  Beet  pulp  can  be  used  to  replace 
silage,  but  there  is  nothing,  so  far  as  I 
know,  that  can  substitute  for  good  le¬ 
gume  roughage.  Timothy  and  clover 
mixed  will  serve,  but  not  with  the  same 
results  that  would  follow  where  Alfalfa 
and  clover  were  abundantly  supplied. 
Assuming  that  5  lbs.  of  dry  beet  pulp 
moistened  for  12  hours  before  feeding  is 
to  provide  succulence,  a  grain  ration 
built  as  follows  is  proposed :  250  lbs.  of 
hominy,  250  lbs.  bran,  200  lbs.  cotton¬ 
seed  meal  (43  per  cent),  150  lbs.  linseed 
meal,  150  lbs.  gluten  feed. 
If  some  brewers’  grains  could  be  added 
to  this  combination  to  increase  its  bulk 
improvement  would  result.  Where  beet 
pulp  is  not  supplied  200  lbs.  of  ground 
oats  should  be  added  to  the  mixture. 
Allow  the  cows  all  of  the  roughage  that 
they  will  consume,  and  distribute  the 
grain  in  proportion  to  the  daily  produc¬ 
tion  of  milk. 
It  is  assumed  that  the  43  per  cent 
grade  of  cottonseed  meal  is  to  be  used, 
and  that  the  bran  will  be  coarse  and 
flaky  and  free  from  screenings.  Feed 
cornmeal  or  corn ;  if  meal  is  available 
it  can  be  substituted  for  hominy  meal. 
This  ration  will  allow  you  to  keep  your 
cows  in  good  condition  and.  since  it  car¬ 
ries  about  22  per  cent  of  protein,  ought 
to  produce  good  results.
