TAYLOR Discontinuance of grain feeding of cows on pasture is somewhat akin to the action of the man who killed the goose that laid the golden egg. Yet many a dairy farmer stops grain feeding as soon as his cows increase their milk flow under the stimulus of luxuriant pasture rich in protein, minerals and vitamins. To make so radical a change in the ration is to make a costly mistake. Dairy cattle on good pasture will maintain increased production without grain for possibly three to four weeks, but they will lose weight in the process. This loss of body weight will be followed by a reduction in milk production. Even with renewed grain feeding, it will be difficult to restore production once it has been allowed to slump. Continued feeding of grain and a limited amount of hay until the cows just turned on pasture are accustomed to the change in their ration is recommended. Amount of grain to be fed will depend upon the quality and amount of available pasture and the level of milk production. Good pasture alone will provide sufficient nutrients for body maintenance and the production of 10 to 20 or more pounds of milk, depending upon the per cent of fat in the milk. New Jersey experiment station trials demonstrated that the feeding of one pound of grain to 8^ pounds of milk maintained the level production during June. Under average feeding conditions, however, a more liberal allowance of grain is usually recommended for the entire pasture season. One pound of grain to every five or seven pounds of milk produced should be sufficient. The higher testing breeds require the more liberal allowance of grain in proportion to the amount of milk produced. "Since the protein content of green pasture is higher than the protein content of roughages fed {jossfl^g NOTICE OF SPECIAL ELECTION TO THE VOTERS OF THE TOWN OF McHENRY, McHENRY, COUNTY, ILLINOIS.

By John Harvey Furbay, Ph.D. Novel Device Checks Field Contour Lines Technical assistance in laying out contour lines on farms has long been an expressed need of conservation- minded farmers. L. H. Schoenleber, Iowa agricultural engineer, has attempted to meet this need with a device which enables farmers to lay out contour lines for themselves, without surveying equipment or technical assistance. His invention is called a grade meter. It has not yet been placed on the market, but it has demonstrated its merit in a wide variety of tests. Schoenleber has received a public service patent on the grade meter but plans to subject the device to further tests before offering it to farmers throughout the country- Contour farming is a basic part of the farm planning program. ^'v" The grade meter consists of 3 pendulum connected to an indicator arm through a train of gears. This is mounted rigidly on the tractor in front of the operaton As the pendulum swings it causes the indicator arm to move over a scale which shows deviations from zero. The operator of the tractor endeavors to keep the meter reading zero at all times.
