Do not allow her to seek a far coi ner of the pasture, where she cannot be observed, and belli ed If necessary. "Give the cow rations rich in bran, molasses, and oil feeds to help condition her; also provide plenty of clean, fresh water. "Provide a dry. clean, well bed ded maternity stall. Cows are highly susceptible to Infection at this time, so sanitation is important. "Be sure the Calf receives sever al good feedings of the cow's first milk. This is rich in vitamin A and other elements which the young animal must have. "Prevent calf uneumonla and scours by keeping newborn calves in clean, well ventilated pens. Do not snui calves in poorly lighted, unventllated quarters, or In cold, draughty quarters where pneu monia may be contracted.
