"Feeding and Care of Dairy Cattle"
la the subject of a new bulletin just
published for distribution to Interest
ed dairymen and farmers by the Colo
rado Agricultural College Extension
service.
The bulletin was written by B. W.
Fairbanks, associate professor of ani
mal husbandry, and O. A. Smith, ex
tension dairyman at the college.
Under the beading, "Feeding for
M ilk Production," it Is emphasized In
the pamphlet that It pays to feed a
good dairy cow liberally, to feed
cows Individually, to make good use
of roughages, to feed succulent feeds,
to feed feeds that are palatable, to
feed a variety of feeds and supply
plenty of fresh, pure water.
Other main divisions of the bul
letin Include such phases of feeding
and care of dulry cattle as principles
of dairy-cow nutrition, feeds for dairy
cows, nitrogenous concentrates, nitro
genous roughages, carbonaceous rough
ages, succulent feeds, pastures, ready-
mixed commercial feeds, summer feed
ing of dairy cows, feeding and man-
agement of cows on official test, rais
ing the dairy calf od skim milk and
on skim milk substitutes, growing out
the dairy heifer, care and manage
ment of the dairy bull and selecting
the grain ration for the dairy cow.
Several different grain rations are
outlined. Vttamlne content of varloua
feeds Is shown, together with a table
showing the cost of 100 pounds of
digestible protein.
Anyone desiring
a free copy of this bulletin may ob
tain It by writing to the extension
service of the college.
Contamination of Milk
Quite Easy to Prevent
From the act of milking, as well as
from any subsequent handling, milk
may become contaminated. I f the ud
der and flanks of the cow are covered
with dirt from yard or stable, the
process of milking will dislodge a
greater or less amount of tbls fllth,
causing It to fall Into the milk pall.
Everything that comes Into contact
with thn milk, such as palls, strainers,
cans, etc., may be a source of trouble
If not kept clean and dry. Milking
with wet hands always results In con
tamination of the milk and should not
be practiced. The flanks and udders
of the cows should be carefully wiped
with a damp doth before milking In
order to remove dust and dirt which
wculd otherwise fall Into the milk.
The cows should not be groomed,
bedded or fed just prior to milking,
because by so doing the air becomes
laden with dust, which gets Into the
milk.
Shade Is Important for
Dairy Cows on Hot Days
Dairy cows may suffer during the
hot summer days If no shade Is pro
vided.
When pasture Is abundant. It Is the
nature of cattle to feed during the
cool part of the day or at night and
to lie In the shade during the hot part
of the day, therefore every permanent
pasture should have enough shade to
accommodate Its cattle.
Various trees may be planted for
this purpose. They must be protect
ed at all times so that live stock enn-
not tramp closer than live to six feet
from the trees or they may be killed.
Four poets should he set and a fence
built about each tree. They should
be planted on land which has good
surface drainage so tbat mndholea will
not be found during rainy weather.
Cows should not be salted under such
trees.
Shade trees on too high land or
close to a wire fence may Invite loss
from lightning.

Globe. And this goes for the women,
too.
Take a case In point. Recently a
little black girl ventured to the
banks of the Gwaal river, near Bnla-
wnyo, Rhodesia. W hile she was
stooping to fill her calabash a croco
dile glided up the bank and seized
her, fixing Its teeth In her back.
Struggling and screaming for help
the girl managed to free herself for
a moment, only to be grasped again,
this time by the arm. The mother,
hearing the cries and guessing their
cause, had the presence of mind to
arm herself with an assegai aa aha

When she reached ths scene the
crocodile had already dragged the
child into the water, but the mother
plunged In and attacked the croco
dile so fiercely that It gave up the
