Quantity of Silage For a Cow. '
A cow weighing 1,000 pounds will
cotiHiitue on an average about thirty
pounds of corn silage daily. Fifteen
pounds may be fed In the morning and
fifteen pounds in tbe evening. Tbe al
lowance uiny be Increased or decreased
In proportion to the cow's weight and
Individual needs. Some cows weighing
ii thousand pounds require more silage
than others of the same weight. It is
well to feed regularly, and It doe not
make much difference when tb cow
are fed provided they are fed regular
ly. As n rule, we believe It better to
feed tillage Immediately after milking
In tho morning rather than before. If
care la not exercised there la some dan
ger of the silage tainting tbe milk
when fed ot the time of milking.

While the butcher dealrea fineness
of bene and high quality tn all parts
so that there shall be little waste on
the block. It Is not desirable to have
thlB go to extremes. A steer with too
much refinement as indlcnted by a
light bone and frail head and a small
paunch, will not be able to stand the
strain of heavy feeding and then fln
Ish out with the great weight that is
desired. No one point la considered
more Important In selecting feeder
steers than the width and straight
uess of tbe hack, with the accompany

the feeding quality and points to th

THE COLT IN WINTER.
drawing Animals Need a Ration f
Grain and Warm Stalls.
During tb cold winter day lb colt
need wmie grain to keep blm growing
and In good flesh. Tb older borne
tuny get through fairly well on rougb
dge. but tbey are not developing boue
aud muscl Ilk tli colt. Then tbey are
larger and naturally bar more beat In
tbelr bodies. Tb groin given tbe colt
should b ground so that be can thor
oughly maalicat it apd get all tbe
nourishment It contains. He should b
fed lu good, tight troughs so that be
will be certain to get all of It Also
b needa to be abut away from older
animal while eating so they will not
ateal bis dally ration. Oat and corn
ground together make a splendid feed.
One-fourth out aad three-fourths corn
I about tb proper proportion for win
ter feed.
Then tb colt abould bar good (bel
ter from tb storms. Tb old borne
may aland tbe aleet and enow and
rntus and biting winds, but tbe colt
will soon become pinched, and be needs
a good warm stall where be will be
protected from the furious weather.
Keep blm well boused and be will need
less feed aud come through tbe winter
looking better than If left exposed to
the storms. A box atall H by 14 feet
will accommodate three or four colta
If tbey are kind to each other. This
should be located on tbe south aide of
th barn If possible and ahould be fit
ted up wltb manger and feed boxes.
Tbe colta should be fed plenty of bay.
and if it la clover or alfalfa so much
tb better. During tho warm, sunny
days they may be allowed to run out In
tbe pastures or lets. This gives tbem
plenty of exercise, and tbey will keep
tbe more healthy.
It la a good plan to watch tho colt's
feet and keep tbem trl mated. Allowed
to grow long, there may be a split hoof
or a deformed ankle. If the colt gets
lousy rub some coal oil and lard down
bis backbone, and if worms bother blm
feed a teaspoonful of finely ground to
bacco In bis feed twice each week.
While, according to tbla plan. It Is a
little more expensive to take a colt
through the winter than would be tbe
case where the little fellow 1 all. wed
to rough It. yet in tbe end there la
economy in good care. Tbla applies
particularly In tbe case of draft colta.
where weight at maturity la a most
Important factor.
Treatment For Ringbona.
la many cases treatment for ring
bone starting on bind pastern of a
clt's leg la not necessary. If lame
ness la absent It la usual to leave such
case to mature, aaya A. 8. Alexander
in the Farm and Hreslde. Sometime
tbe "bunch" Is reabsorbed. More com
monly it goes on growing, and lame
ness comes on wben the horse Is work
ed bard on hard roads or even without
the hard road Influence. If you pre
fer to try Inducing reabsorptlon of tbe
growth (exostosis) clip off the balr and
blister at least once a month by rub
bing in a little of a mixture of one
dram of biniodlde ot mercury and two
ounce of cerate of cantharides. The
cerate keeps Indefinitely, but the
Iodide of mercury should be rubbed up
with the cerate Just before rise. Rub
th blister in for fifteen minutes. Tie
the colt up abort so that be cannot lie
down or bite the blistered part. Rub
lard on the part tn three days and
then apply a little lard once a day.
For a ringbone that causes lameness
It la best to have the part puncture
tired and blistered by a veterinarian
and then give six weeks of rest In the
stall. Tbe results will pay for the ex
pense. C.us. of Mottled Butter.
Mottled butter may be due to several
causes. If tbe cream la not strained
Into tbe churn there are likely to be
large specks of curd tn tbe butter, as
the curd will not tnko up the coloring
matter used for coloring the butter.
Tbe most common cause of mottled
butter la the Improper mixing of salt
and tbe preaeoce of too much butter
milk. Wben care is taken to thor
oughly wash out all buttermilk and to
mix the anlt eveuly throughout the
butter there la very little danger of
producing mottled butter.
Remedy For 8eour In Horses.
Tbe feeding of carrots sometimes
checks tendency to scouring. If that
does not prove helpful mix a pint of
browned wheat flour with each feed.
and if that does not suffice gtve twice
dally a tablespoonful of a mixture of
one part each of powdered alum, sub-
olrrnte of bismuth, powdered catechu,
powdered ginger root and two parts
powdered wood charcoal.
Hog Troughs.
Tbe question Is often asked, "What
Is the beat style ot bog trough?" writes
O. r. Williams In tbe National Stock
man. We use troughs made of Inch
oak boards. Bottom boards are eight
Inches wide, with edges slightly bev
eled so as to make the width at top
about ten inches. Tbe Bides should be
of six inch boards natled to the beveled
edge of tbe bottom board. End boards
abould be two Inches longer at each
side than the width of tbe trough to
prevent splitting when nailed on. Thir
ty Inch lengths for Biugle hog, three
feet for two or three bogs and twetve
feet for general use make good stand
ard lengths.
Wider bottoms are likely to warp and
split. Shallower troughs waste teed.
Deeper troughs Invite tbe bogs to put
tblr feet Into the trough while drink
li& No slats Bbould be used, as they
prevent easy cleaning. ,
HORSE SUGGESTIONS.

It coat a good deal of money
to buy a satisfactory team. In

Alwaya tie your team or put
