To supplement the loss of butter fat in milk, take for 12 calves over two months old, four cups of flax seed, put it into a common stove pot and fill up with water. Do this after dinner and allow it to simmer all afternoon and evening. Next morning boil smartly for about one half hour, stir in some wheat flour, until the mixture is about the conâ€" sistency of thin porridge. A calf three months old will take a cup full of this flax seed tea porridge in its skim milk. The -flour is used to counteract the loosening efi'ects of the flax seed. Care must be used at first not to overfeed but to work up gradually to what I have mentioned, with skim milk, flax seed tea, roots chopped oats and clover hay, and with comfortable Warm pens kept clean and welf bedded. Calves can in this way be raised much more profitably in winter than in summer. When a separator is used it is best to skim the froth of! the skimmed milk and ndt‘ feed it to the young calves, especially those under three months. It has a tendency to disturb the normal action of the sto- maCh, and set. up scours. Whenever a calf is scouring, reduce the quan- tity of skim milk. Be careful to have the pail from which the calves are fed as clean as possible. With skim milk at the right eemperature fed out of pails as clean as your milking pails, in not too large quan- tities and fed regularly. there will a wisp of straw, put it into a roomy dry pen, free from frosts and drafts, and give it no milk for the first 12 hours. When a calf is hungry it is not nearly so much trouble to teach it to drink. The first two weeks it should have a quart of whole milk three times a day, care being taken that the noon milk is warmed to neR milk heat. For the next three weeks half a quart of skim milk should be added to the whale milk at each meal. When the calf gets to be five weeks old, discontinue the noon milk, also the whole milk, giv- ikg about three quarts of skim milk twice a day. By this time the sto- mach will be strong enough to as- similate and digest other food. The noon meal should then be pulped roots chopped oats and well saved clover hay. If a separator is not used and the milk set in shallow pans or deep setting cans, it should always be warmed up to new milk heat before being fed. If it is fed cold or too hot it is apt to produce bloating and scours. When through careless feeding. scouring is allowed to become chronic there is no rem- 'be littleâ€"trefible from calves scour- ing. In Warm weather calves should be kept in‘ during the day time, and turned out in the evening. Thus they will avoid the hot sun and flies. Whole or chopped oats should be fed. A mixture of whole and chopâ€" ped oats, about a. cupful twice aday for an ordinary-sized calf on 800d pasture, will be sufficient. feeding until the. roots are harvest- hing equal to green When a. calf is dropped it is not good practice to allow the cow to fondle and lick her offspring. When the separation does take place there is always a. disturbance in the cow stable: the mother gets excited” and some nervous cows remain so for the best kart of a. week. Better results are obtained by removing the new born calf without allowing the mother ‘vo lick it. Rub it dry with ration an early winter or fall calf is quite as heavy at ‘tWO-anckaâ€"half years as a spring calf is at three years old. were is a gain of six months in the w": of the calf, the reason for this eing that it is weaned off the milk in June, goes on to grass, is fed a. little grain or meal all summer, and in the fall is a good strong lusty yearling. and winters much better than a Spring calf. which is just weaned in the fall and goes into win- ter. edy 'When a. Calf is not doing well break an egg into its milk; this acts as a. tonic and adds strength to its or satisfactory a growth in the first six months, as when the cow has had a. fair period for rest and recupera- tion. After a. long term of exper- ience I have come to the conclusion, considering the increased price of winter butter, the long milking sea- son and resting when the grass is poor, that in winter dairying, cows give at least 25 percent more milk in the season than if they come in fresh in the spring months. Again a. couple of weeks of calving they 'g'et no chance to recuperate. The calf generally comes with a. weakened vi- tality and dm not make as rapid ten months. ‘ giving the cows two months rest. They are rested in the early fall, when the pastures are at their poorest. At that time the grass is generally parched and burn- ed up. As we raise on the skim milk one calf to each cow, it is very important that the cows should have two months rest out of the twelve. When the cows are milked to within son is lengthened; cows coming in fresh before Christmas, by liberal feeding ip winter, milk nearly as well in the early summer when the pas- tures are at their best, as cows that come in fresh in March.

MARIMBA CONCILLORS MET AT OAKWOOD ON MONDAY. 9th vuv- ' -w Then the list showing the wages for the three weeks is an unfair state- ment, as the coopers who made the high wages during that time were making large rolled-oat barrels and were getting 4} cents each for them. Mr. Kennedy also tries to show how much a man can make in a few hours it being his first experience. B. Get- chell made 85 barrels. but he worked about 43 hours to do so, thereby not earning quite 9 cents per hour. In conclusion : Mr. Kennedy states he pays the coopers more money for less. work than any other men in his employ. This, Mr. Editor, is a base talaehood. To-day Ir. Kennedy pay: ‘as high as $1.75 per day for wages, 3and there is note-man in thecooper 1shop who can earn that much making barrels {or 4 cents.
