Id the spring or summer, tint fall and
winter calves, as a matter of course,
must be handled differently. Such
calves should be put on feed Just as
soon as they are old enough to eat and
allowed to" uurse twice per day. They
should have free access to open sheds
in Inclement weather, but should nev
er be boused more than Is necessary.

The superiority of steer of beef
typa for the economical production
of meat has been demonstrated
scientifically by Dr.' H. P. Arms by
tn tests at the Pennsylvania experi
ment station, it was found In tha
most careful trials that a purs
bred steer bad about the same di
gestive capacity as a scrub steer of
rangy type. The amount of nutri
tive materials required for tba
mere maintenance of life was one
third greater for the scrub steer.
Tbe rate of gain per unit of feed
was practically the same tor the
two steers owing to the fact that
the scrub made more of Its gain in
lean meat, which contains much
water. The pure bred steer had a ,
greater capacity for consuming
feed, and tt produced more fat,
representing the storage of mors
energy available tor human food.
The Shorthorn bull herewith pic
tured was champion at the recent
royal show, England.
as they will be far more healthy If
reared in tbe open air. It is not un
common to find bull calves reared in
this manner weighing 100 pounds per
month of age. This, however, is an
excellent weight, and the feeder must
not expect to bare all of his calves at
tain this growth.
Cows nursing calves during the win
ter months should be well taken care
of. They should be fed grain at least
twice per day and have plenty of al
falfa or clover bay. One should ai
rways bear In mind that tbe mother's
milk is the best and cheapest feed tbe
calf can get. Therefore tbe more
milk the cow is made to give and the
longer tbe calf Is allowed to nnrse the
better be will be. This will perhaps
seem rather bard on tbe cow. but one
of tbe greatest merits of the Sbort
born cow Is her ability to fatten
quickly when dry, so there need be
no fear In pulling ber down thin in
the winter, for If given tbe range of a
good pasture she will be in tine con
dition by early fall.
. Indigestion In Fosls.
Indigestion In young foais Is often
caused by the youngsters eating litter,
such as straw, horse manure and. In
fact, anything they can find. Often
the foals eat such matter when only a
few hours old, though they eat It at
any age Tbe trouble usually comes
on under one week of age. Tbe foal's
stomach Is unable to assimilate such
mnterial, and often the intestines be
come Impacted, and the foal Is likely
to succumb In a few days.
The best treatment Is prevention.
This can be done by placing a muzzle
on the young foal. Such a muzzle can
be made of wire. It should be re
moved often to let the foal suckle the
dam. In case the foal Is troubled the
best treatment is to give physic and
injection. Tor this olive oil Is prefer
red, and It may be given in two ounce
doses three times per day until relief
is pained. M. W. Ilarper, Cornell
University.

There is often the danger that the

DAIRY WISDOM.
TVInter bntter fat price are
what make fat milk checks.
It you would raise healthy, vig
orous calves you must keep the
calf palls clean all the time.
Hot water and sunshine are
two of the best cleansers for the
dairy utensils that can be found
anywhere.
The thermometer must be used
as regularly In the dairy during
the summer as during the win
ter. The dairy cow Is wor:h more
than the beef steer whatever
way you look at her.
Ilutter made In a sanitary
dairy Is always easier to keep
than that which ts tuude under
poor conditions.

GREAT MILK PRODUCERS.
Holstein Cattle Possess Many Valusbls
Qualities.
The Holstein Dreed of dairy cattle,
so far as the production of milk is
concerned. Is without a rival lu quan
tity, but the milk does uot average as
high tn butter fat although there are
iume exceptions, says the American
Agriculturist The milk Is excellent
tor cheese or buttermaklng aud Is
considered especially valuable for sale
as milk In cities. It develops young
animals rapidly, being rich In the con-,
stitueuts that go to form bone aud
muscle and develops tissue. I
Holsteins are especially adapted to
farm and dairy conditions In the mid-
die west They have large, fleshy
frames and do particularly well on the
level prairies of tbe middle west
They thrive on grain and forage crops
under those conditions. They take
cure of themselves and do not require
pampering and for this reason are
weli suited to commercial purposes, i
While other breeds do Just as well for
butter production, the llolstelns. be-1
cause of tbe large quantity of milk
produced, nave captured many rec
ords for total amount of butter fat,
but tn addition to tbe butter fat tbe
large quantities of skimmllk can be
turned to excellent account
Holstein steers, while not as satis
factory for beef as some of the strictly
meat beef breeds, fatten quite readily

and furnish a very high grade of beef.
They can therefore be utilized to much
better advantage than the steers ot
In sections where milk Is produc
ed (or city trade the Holstein cow
comes pretty near being the leader.
She gives a large quantity of mod
erately rich mule She Is healthy,
rugged, vigorous and capable ot
utilizing large quantities ot feed.
The breed Is a very old one. No
one knows just where it originat
ed. Of course the breed was de
veloped to Its perfection In north
ern Holland, and for hundreds of
years Holland has been famed for
its dairy products.
the Ayrshire or Jersey breeds; at least
that Is tbe opinion ot those who have
had large experience. The average
cows weigh from 1,200 to 1.500 pounds,
while the bulls are much heavier.
But the Holstein has many other
valuable qualities. Tbe belfers become
milk producers at from twenty-fonr to
thirty months. They are excellent
cows to use where soiling Is practiced.
They are very quiet In disposition,
make relatively large gains and do not
get hard when grown for meat When
crossed upon common animals their
prepotency Is very marked, resulting
la improvement of tie ordinary stock.
For a number of years Ilylstelns
were not thoroughly understood In
many parts of the middle west nnd
were discriminated against Their
strong points, however, are so promi
nent and important that they at last
prevailed, and their good qualities are
now recognized everywhere.
The Farm Horse's Feed.
There are some nrincinles in feeding
horses that should be understood, 'iha
horse's stomac h Is small, and he should
not be required to get his nutriment
from such coarse roughage ns straw
when at work. There Is no better feed
for the working horse than ground
oats and corn varied with whole grain
sometimes and a bran mash occasion
ally. The grain ration should be adapt
ed to tbe roughage, feeding more outs,
ollmeal and bran with timothy hay
arid more corn with clover nnd alfalfa.
A heavy team doing hard work with
t mothy buy for roughage should have
twelve to fifteen pounds of grain per
day In three feeds and perhaps ten
pounds of hay at each feed fed with
the graiu and possibly a little more
hay at night.
Pasturing Sheep.
Sheep ent a little more than steers in
comparison with their weight. Ten
100 pound sheep require about as mueU
pasture as n LOT) pound steer. It Is
not uecessnry to count on the lambs
requiring much pnvture at ti rst. but
toward the end ot the summer a spring
lamb eats about as much grass as an
old ewe.
