THE REXALL STORE, ¡TILLAMOOK CITY, OREGON. WfNCH£5m p roots may be ted as a- supplement to silage. It is claimed that 10 pounds of roots have the same feeding value as one pound of grain. Boots are fed at the rate of 39 to 60 pounds per day or even more. In season green feeding may be used in place of silage. The feeding of green crops in the stable is often consider­ ed a better method of providing green feed than turning out to grass. The hay should be of the best quali­ ty available. The second cutiing'of alfalfa Is to be preferred, although other good bright legume hays may be fed. The hay should be soft, full of leaves, fine of stem and cured wi’hout having been wet. It shoiild be fed often and in such amounts as will be eaten with relish. Not en­ ough importance is placed on good hay as experience has shown that no grain of any kind in the absence of good hay will produce best results. Dr. Lytle, our State Veterinarian, has shown by experiments jU3t con­ ducted by him, that a very valuable adjunct to the ration of cattle is a combination of various chemicals which tend to replace those persis- ently drained from cows with the milk. They are, principally calcuim, phosphorous, iron, iodine and sodium salts. Dr. Lytle finds that cows which have been milked for a num­ ber of years and are classed as be­ yond the good milking stage can be brought back to giving an amount equal to their best days of previous years. It seems that there is a great field for research in this line and a possible means of supplying this de­ ficient amount of chemicals ties in the feeding of calcium phosphate in small amounts daily. Dr. Lytle is now working on a suitable combina­ tion and when ready will published and I am sure will, with the proper study of feeding as outlined above, help to establish some d iiry records in Tillamook county. Feeding dairy cows for record, like feeding racehorses, is a business a- bout which there is much secrecy and many things are done for which there is no scientific foundation by many breeders. It has been proven | that much of , the quackery prat iced by many herdsmen is of no value. In fitting a cow for test it is pretty well agreed among breeders that, within reasonable limits the fatter the cow is before freshening the better her chances of making a high record. Particularly is this ; true in the seven day test, as it is a proved fact that good flesh contri­ butes to a high fat test for a short time after calving. The high con­ ditioning of a cow before calvipg is also the means of building up reserve energy for the long time yearly* test. For the dry cow, feeds rich in pro­ tein and bone forming material are required, in order that the embryonic calf may be properly nourished. Most authorites agree that a mixture of bran, oats, cornmeal or hominy and linseed is a good one. The following are rations that have given good re­ sults in fitting the cow for test: two parts hominy, on part bran and one part oil meal, or 100 parts of each bran, ground oats .and hominy and seventy five parts of oil meal, or two parts of each bran and oil meal and one part of each hominy and ground oats, or still another ration may be made of 100 parts each bran and oil meal, 75 parts of ground oats and 25 parts of beet pulp. In the foregoing all of the mixtures are by weight. Fresh roots if they can be obtained arc a very desirable supplement to the ration at this time, as they are ! cooling and somewhat laxative and most cows relish them. If roots are not available beet pulp is often used. It is usually soaked with water and Report of Nestucca Testing Assn. fed wet, taking the place of roots and to some extent, of silage.

The famous Buick policies and principles of twenty years ago still remain intact in Buick construction. They have stood the test of years of constant operation. Naturally the quality, endurance and economy which has been so essential to over five hundred thousand Buick owners in the past is now eagerly sought for by thousands of future motor car purchasers. Today the Buick Valve-In-Head built by the pioneer builders of Valve-In-Head motor cars stand pre-emi nently before the entire motor car field as “first choice among motor car buyers ACKLEY & MILLER.
