The Protection and Care of Milk in Winter.
Canadian dairymen appear to have
lessened their efforts in the produc-
tion of winter milk, consequently we
have a shortage and a period of high
prices. Not many aro ina position
to avail themselves of the good pri-
ces
ri-
C S
e offered for dairy products of all
kinds, and especially for line butter.
Essentials for Economicai Production
(l:) Fresh cows. It is
unsatisfact-
ory fact-
ory trying toproduce milk witha
herd of cows most of which have
been- milking during the past summ-
er. • At least one 'half the cows shou-
ld freshen between the first of Nov-
ember and the last day of 'February.
- (2) A moderately 'warm, clean, li-
ght, well -ventilated, stable is agreat
aid to 'the economical production of
winter milk. Coil and ?rally ventil-
ated stables near, added. .cost for
feed.
(3) Cheap, succulent feed is needed.
This is best got be providing corn
silage, marigolds, clover hay and sui-
table meal. A verygood •ration for
a cow giving 40 poundsof milk daily
or making 1* to 2 dounds of butter
per day. 0 30 to 40+pounds cern en-
silage, nounds n angolds, 8 to 10
pounds clover hay, 4 pounds bran, 3
pounds ground oats ,and one .pound
oil -cake. If possible cut; the .shay, pu-
lp the roots and mix. the bulky feed
together a few hours before 'feeding.
Add the meal to the bulky..part at the
time. of feeding. The foregoing am
ounts may be divided into two pore
tions and one half be given to • Each
cow --night and -morning, The —cows-
should
--cowsshould be fed regularly and each •ani-
mal should be under close observa-
tion by the feeder In order to note
her appetite, response fn milk flow
and other conditions. If the, feeder
rinds that the, cow can profitaln5ly con-
sume more than eight pounds of meal
daily, then, extra meal may be ,giver..
Careful feeders who weigh the milk
from each cow will soon leann the
limit it
of profitable feeding for each
animal.
Care of the Milk.
If the cow be kept clean • and the
milk bedrawn in 'a cleanly manner
into a clean pall by a clean person
and be.rennoved shortly after Strain-
ing from the barn, there" is no rear
son why winter milk should have a
"covey odour..": This; "cawy odour"
isusually causedby filth which drops
into the milk during the milking, or
is absorbed by the milk from the fo-
ul air of the stable,.
Milk should be removed from the
stable before it cools to the temper-
ature of the stable air ; otherwise it
will absorb taints rapidly,
After straineng the milk does nota
usually require any special cooling
other than that 'which takes • place
fromthe cold ;air., if it be stirred oc-
casionally to prevent the cream ris-
ing and to insure uniform cooling
throughout the whole mass of milk.
It is •also necessary to prevent the
milk freezing in order to obtain the
bust results.
If sent to a winter creamery, it
should ' be delivered at least • three
times a week.: If . manufactured . on
the farm it should be made into but-
ter- -as soon: as possible after it ' fs
drawn frons the cow. The longer
that milk is kept before being made
into butter, the poorer will be the
product.

Meal Rations for Fattening Cattle
Roughly speaking, steers for feeding,
inay idivided into two classes, na-
mely, long -keep steers, iv'Ideh, on ac-
count of light weight or thin con
Titian, have to be fed Ave or six
months hs before they are ready for
market ; and short -keep steers; which
are snore fleshy and can be finished
in from three to four months. Tine
method of feeding these two classes
ofcattle are necessarily different„and
therefore the suggestions which fol-
low are .offered: under two different
bads. •
Leong -keep Steers.--long.-keep steers
are all the better to receive practi-
Gaily no meal during the first month
they are in the stable, or,at the moo
st, merely a sprinkling of meal on
their other foods, say, between one
and two pounds per day. Tints they
become accustomed' to meal and " the
quantity may be gradually increased
until, by the end of the seconit mon-
th, they May reach as high as four
pounds each per day. An increase in
the amount of meal should be made
gradually and ,the extent to which
it should be incrbased after the point"
just mentioned, will depend upon the
condition of the steers. As a rule,
reasonably good, long -keep ;steers can
be Ce shed for market by feeding, on
an average, about half a pound of
meal per dayy for every hundred po-
unds oftheir live weight. That is to
say, if the average live weight of a
steer' for the whole feeding period is
twelve hundred pounds, the . ani;ount
of meal i ogn'red to fatten ' him will -
average about six pounds per day.
Of course towards the close of the.
feeding period it may be necessary
to increase the meal ration to nearly
apound per hundred poundsrids of live
weight, 'but'since the ration was.
ex-
tremely small atthe beginning
and l
was very gradually increased, the ay -1
erage daily ration will not exceed, to
any considerable extent, the quantity
stated. The feeder must ever bear in
mind that meal' is- the 'expensive part
of � the ration, and' that the profits
depend .,very: largely upon the skill
with which this important factor in
fattening in handled. Light mealra-
tions to start with, . and very gradu-
al increases, are two general glides
Which should never belostsight of
in • fattening cattle.
• Short -keep Steers.—•The Same gen-
eral principles apply in the ,cage of
shortrkeep' steers as in, the case of..
long -keep, with the exception that
since n e the short -keep stoers are 'to be
finished in three or four .months, • it
isneoessary to increase the meaf ra-
tion -more rapidly. Even in•this case.
it easy ••to injure the steers very
seriously „bv feeding too, heavy ame-
al ration at the start. Three or lour
hounds', of . trneal per d^ay . is a heavy''
enough ration' with . ,whiehi to :start
and the increase should be,gradual:
In the: course o! a. :•Lnonth, they may. I
bee+ nearly, to . their limit; thot.gh just,.
what the limit should be depends
upon circuifstances.: • There ':are ':suc-

half ' a pound per day per hundred'
pounds live weight of the steers. Wh-
en it is required to have the steers
finished by a certain time, it may be
necessary to crowd a little but when
the meal- ration approaches a pound
d hundred ay per huh red pounds live wei-
ght, it is becoming, very expensive.
The amount of meal will also be in-
fluenced by the character of the bulky
fodders used. If straw and chaff are
fed, more meal will be necessary th-
an when good hay is used, so that
the quantity of meal must be left
largely to the judgement of ,the feed -
or. It is a fact, however, that a
great deal of ineal is wasted through
over -feeding, and the feeder must ev-
er keep this fact in mind, He must
reinem'ber also that he is not dealing
with machines but withliving crea-
tures, and if be would feed to the
best . advantage he must study his
animals and strive to accommodate
his methods to their individual re-
quirements,
Weight,—Tho question of . weight
must never be lost sight of in feed-
ing meal. Many men feed entirely by
measure ,and are inclined to farm
their opinions of different foods by the
effects produced by Aqua' measures isi-
St+cad of lby' equal weights. A gal-
lon of ground oats is.•a very differ-
ent Airing 'from
iffer-ent.thing'froni a gallon of .pea meal
and when feeding the lighter classes
of meal, the bulk should be increased
as compared with heavier kinds. 1f
this point . is not lost sight of the
_feeder' will be.surpriscd...to. find, .-.-after
all,: 'how little difference there is in
the feeding value of different kinds of
