' The world's record for seven-days' production of butterfat Is held by a purebred Holsteln-Frlealan cow, Segls Payne Johanna, and la 60.68 pounds of butter; and the 10-day record, also to the credit of a purebred cow, Ormsby Jane Segia Aaggie, la 171 pounds butter and 3,242 pounds milk. The Holsteln-Frlesian breed now has 18 cows that have produced albove 40 pounds of butter in seven days; while the list producing above 30 pounds butter contains 741 names. However, to emphasise the fact that Holsteln claims to distinction are not based on individual records, buU upon a wonderful uniformity of pro ductiveness, the reader is asked to consider the. following: During the flscsl year ending April 30, 1916, there were reported to tbe Advanced Registry office of The Hol steln-Frlesian Association of America, 11,868 short-time official records, over one half of which were made by heifera with' first or second calve. The average seven-day production of these animals was 401 pounds milk containing 3.53 per cent butterfat. Automatic Safety Signals 1140 Miles ofboubfe'Track .. .. Hiotvet tw of moiLhed cnrHtTUdSan.

Silsgo may be given after the calf Is one month old, but tbe utmost care ahould be observed to be sure that It Is fresh from the silo, Tor tbls reason very young calves, except lu'tbe huud of a very careful feeder, ahould not bo fed sllsge, as It ferment rapidly. If the calf bus access to a good ss tu re during tho flint six months it need not receive other roughago. Pasture used lu auuiuicr ihould contain plenty, of shade. It Is not advisable, however, to have a calf under two months of age on pasture In tho early spring. Wheat brail Is eateu steadily by young calve. Inasmuch a one of tba esscutlsl point la, to Induce tbe calf to eat grain as early as possible, brsn tn msny cases Is one of tbe lugredlonts In tbe mixture. Corn, a feed very com monly found on the farm, has an ex cellent physiological effect upon cattle of all ages and to a great extent may take the place of tbe fat removed from tbe milk. It la therefore one of tbo very best gralna to use with sklmmllk. Experiments In Virginia tend to show thst corn fed to calves should be cracked rather . than finely ground. Cracked corn and wheat bran there fore should be th basis of th feed mixture. Ground oats are very good for the purpose, but they are not grown on the farm so commonly a corn and In many cases cost much more per unit of feed than corn aud bran. The fol lowing mixtures are recomuieuded: Three parts cracked corn aud one part wheat bran, three parts cracked com, one part wheat bran and ona part ground oats; three parts crscked corn, ona part wheat bran, one part ground oata and one part linseed meal; live parts cracked corn, oua part wheat bran, one part ground oats aud one part blood meal; oata, ground. When tba calf Is lu Its second week It should beglu to receive grain, and when on 'month old It ahould eat about half a pound a dny.
