Professor Roberts, of Cornell univer-l sity, in an essay read before the Hen. kimer, N. Y., Farmers’ institute, 0115 Oneida, asked how 111 dairy cows, gave expression to the fol-j gain by this incline. Mr. lowing: “How shall we feed the cows? W’ell, how would you feed a man? Would you put indigestible and disgusting food be- fore him? Feed cows with the same brains you use in the preparation of your own food. Give them something that is appetizing, which, nine times out of ten, means digestible food. In figur- ing the cost of a food you should never forget its value as a fertilizer. A ton of cotton seed meal is worth $28 as a fer- tilizer to spread broadcast on your fields. I have just purchased a car load at $22.50 per ton; if this be fed to milk cows they will take out only 20 per cent. of the fer- tilizing elements and their excrement will be worth all the food cost. “There is another point left that I want to emphasize. The milch cow must have an abundance of water, and I hope you will not oblige her to drink it from the ice cold brook. It is cheaper to warm the water with coal in a heater than with hay in a cow. Heat the water to 60 or 80 degs. and give it to your cows in the barns.” Pigs for Profit. Pigs breed enormously faster than do either cows 0r ewes. They are less liable to in jury from accident or disease. They can dig-est and turn into flesh a. larger proportion of food than any other rumie nant. For instance, 100 pounds of dry food given to them will produce an in- crease in live weight in cattle of 9 pounds, in sheep 11 pounds and in pigs 23.8 pounds. In other words, pigs get twice as much nourishment out of food as do sheep, and nearly three times as much as do oxen. As a result, the pig increases in weight much more speedily than either sheep or ox. And there is another consideration. W'hile the value of pork during the past twenty years has not de- preciated, the cost of all kinds of artificial food has been lowered, so that if pig keeping ever was profitable it must be more than ever so nowadays. The New Fertilizer. More or less excitement prevails in the minds of some persons over the extraor- dinary reports from the use of sulphate of iron, or the common copperas of com- merce, when used in connection with the fitlash and phosphate fertilizers. The quis of Paris, who is also a success- ful fruit grower and market gardener, has employed it extensively. His prac- tice is, after applying other fertilizers, to sow copperas at the rate of about one ounce to thesquare yard of surface for all garden crops, and for trees and fruits .aweu.
