It takes more feed for sto<'k out in the open weather than in shelter, since they must consume a sufficient quantity to maintain normal flesh and keep up the heat necessary fox' supplying their bodies with warmth, Oilmeal is so loosening in its ef- feet that it is ve]'13 easy to overfeed on this ration. While 11•e would feed only about ogle -fourth pint for every 100 pounds the animal weighs there aro eases in which this would be too plush, while in others 111 would be Mee/Relent. When feed- ing it watch the results closely, and gauge your future feeding by them. Don't get too cn•thusiatsiio in feeding oilmeal, as it is a concen- trated ration. One and a half to two pounds will be sufficient for the dairy cows, along with other rations daily. Bogs will require an amount in proportion to their size, and horses will need it only occasionally -twice or three times a week -as a sorb of change from the bulkier feeds. The proportion of live to dead weight in cattle and sheep varies ac- cording 4o the way in which the ani- mals are fattened. It is not often that a foot beast kills over 72 per cent. of its live weight; only show boasts may be reckoned to do that. The primest may kill 4o 72 per cent.., when cake finished. A good aver- age is 68 per cent. Mutton sheep newly •shorn will kill about three per oent. more than cattle. If any single mistake in whiter calf raising could be designated art the greatest, it is that of aliowibt the little fellows to run with dela grown stock where they are bunted about, cheated of their share of feed and made to stand in the most un- comfortable parts of the sheds or barns. Watch Results Carefully. Feed boxes and mangers should be kept clean to see that the cattle clean up their feed and are keen for the next feeding. Keep watch of their droppings to see that no food passes through un- digested. Note carefully the re- sults of every change of feed and never x{3ake too radioal changes in the ration. Try to have each cola up to her maximum production within 20 to 40 days after she freshens. Whether the cow is kept for milk or butter production, it is equally important that she be brought to her highest production of milk re- gardless of the quantity of batter fat contained in the milk. Unless she is brought to her high- est production in this length of time her milk'yield for that milking period will be materially decreased. Good pure water, and plenty of it, should be in a convenient plane where she may have access at all times, so 'that she ,may drink alt she wants. When We consider that a cow needs five pounds of water to make a pound of milk, it is plain to be seen that she must have plenty of water if she produces a large flow of milk. Salt is another essential and cows should have plenty of it if they keep in good health. To Keep Boys on rile Farm. The '14 toa 'A� 11 the w 1,t c t boyto the y farm is by may. of achievement.

Bub in direct contrast there are other farmhouses aupporketl by dairy herds paying large profits, where the enthusiasm of the father has spread to the children. Surrounding these homes are neatly mowed lawns with flowers, trees and vines around the painted and well -kept house, and 'where money is spent for the home com- forts. Ilene the question of how to keep boys on the farm never arises, 73igh- or civilization ousts something ; the dairyman must increase his earn- ing power. Expired.
