to the three days, Wednesday, Thurs-
day and Friday. The college is pre-
pared, however, to entertain ,as many'
farm guests as usual and all farm

the same -hearty welcome as usual
and 'will be given as fine an oppor-
a-unity, to look over the buildings and
grounds, to inspect :special exhibits

'get up-to-date information as in pre--
-vio u s years.
The whole program will be carried
through on 'standard time with the
usual cafeteria lunch 'at -noon and
good accommodation for those who
-wish to remain for two or three
days. There will also be excellent

The most economical period for
a k'ow to be dry is six weeks. &me

*Ting them off too quickly for fear
of causing udder trouble. There are
three methods commonly used ir.
drying off cows, namely: (1) in -com-
plete milking, (2) milking, less fre-
quently -usually once a day, and (3)
ceasing to milk altogether. Experi-
ments have shown that' the last
method is the' best. Cows can be
dried off the most rapidly, and with-
out any ill effects to the undeanby
,ceasing 'to milk altogether even when
these, are givjpg up to 21) pounds of
mills per day. Putting cows on dry
feeds is -a great help in drying them
off.

There is generally a tendency at
this season of the year to continue

• Rrying •Off Cows.
The most economical period for
a k'ow to be dry is six weeks. &me
'caws, however, are very -persistent
milkers and their owners -do not like
*Ting them off too quickly for fear
of causing udder trouble. There are
three methods commonly used ir.
drying off cows, namely: (1) in -com-
plete milking, (2) milking, less fre-
quently -usually once a day, and (3)
ceasing to milk altogether. Experi-
ments have shown that' the last
method is the' best. Cows can be
dried off the most rapidly, and with-
out any ill effects to the undeanby
,ceasing 'to milk altogether even when
these, are givjpg up to 21) pounds of
mills per day. Putting cows on dry
feeds is -a great help in drying them
off.
• Late Hatches Not Profitable.
There is generally a tendency at
this season of the year to continue
hatching operations, especially if the
early hatches /rave been disapipoint-
ing.• Although it is tot always the
case, -generally speaking, it is riot
advisable to tontinue hatching heavy
breedi after April and the lighter
'breeds about the -Middle of May, if
they are to -be- brought into produc-
tion by October -the- most -desirable
Month to insure a goon yield during
'the season of peak prices.
If the stock cockerels are now to
be removed frolninthe mating pens -
and this practice is moat desirable
when the eggs are to be marketed
-then they should be fed sparingly
-a normal ration not toe rich in ani-
mal feed. They will be kept in bet-
ter condition if theey can be given
the liberty -of a grass range some
distance away from the hens, and fed.
