OTTO' “Before you begin to feed. select the best possible animals,” snid Prof. EJ. H. Grisdsle of the Central Experi- mental Farm, at the Maritime Win. ter Fair. On the platform with him I were two animals. ones six-year-old go: and the other a yearling steer. ‘ First, look at the steer’s faceâ€"we want a broad. face, not. too long, with is mild, large eye.-â€"a large muzzle. .All good feeding steers have short. 7 thick necks. We went a steer with The Best Age for Economical Feeding ab agood constitution, for be has to digest large quantities of food to make a rapid growth. To secure constitution, an abundance of heart room is essential. shown by his thickness and depth. This also gives room for the organs of digestion. be- hind the heart and lungs.” He compared the conformation of the two animals beside him, the ox with a sharp shoulder and high back. the yearling with great width of shoulder. tOp and back, and fullness of loin. The development of the hind quar- ters should aISO show length. and depth. and width, â€"a straight and not. a rounding ham. The thick. low-sec steer will flesh much morcquiekly than the rangy steer. Fromoue year to two and a year's. isâ€"the ideal age for feeding for beef. The relative cost of a pound of gain is as follows:-â€"â€"â€" From birth to six months, ‘2 c. lb.

This preeminence has been brought about chiefly by the general difiusion of agricultural information and the hearty co-operation of the farmers along every line that will be to their mutual advantage. There are many T direccions in which Canadians might’ profitably imitate these energetic rivals of ours, not the least import- iant being in the improvement of dairy herds. The aim of intelligent dairymen. in Canada as well as in Denmark, is to produce the largest amount of first class milk, butter or cheese at the least cost, Let us see. then, what eel-operative tearing has ,,_.‘_ :n the way at cheapening the cos: of The first of these ecooperanve tem- ing associations was formed in 1895 Each society is composed of a limited number of farmers. about twelve or fifteen, who agree to have careful The little kingdom NARROW ESCAPE. An Object Lesson For Canada. What The Danes Have Done TESTING DAIRY HERDS v--- 0.0 -4 kingdom of Denmark almost unrivalled posi- tests of their cows made at frequent intervals during the whole milking period by a competent man hired for the purpose. Fairly accurate records are thus obtained, not only of the yield of milk and butter fat, but of the amount. kind and cost of feed consumed. The information thus se- cured has proved remarkably efiective in inducing the Danes to adopt better methods of breeding, feeding and culling dairy cow'S. In 1895, when the first testing as- sociation was formed. the value of the butter exported from Denmark was $19,000,000. In 1901, when over three hundred of these associations were scattered‘ over the country, the value of the butter eXportsi amounted to $29,000,000. and increase of over fifty per cent in six years. It is generally agreed that the great er part of this enormous increase was due to the work of the testing as- sociations in weeding out the poor cows. Not only was the average production of the milking cows large. ly increased. but so much additional skill in feeding was acquired that the cost of feed necessary to produce a pound of butter is now estimated to be less than two-thirds of what it was when. the first co-operative associa- tion started Operations in 189?) Canadian dairvmen who are look- ing for dividends on their invest- ments should consider these figures. The reports of testing societies show- ed that the cost of keeping these year- ly records was from forty to sixty cents per cow. while the increased? returns per cow, as a result of five years testins. were from six to fifteen dollars per annum Surely this is an eminently satisfactory rate of in- terest. The extraordinary increase in a number of these societies in Denmark shows how highly their work is appreciated. The tests made by the original associations were sufficient to convince the Danish farmers that they were not dairying on business principles that they were allowing a lot of robber cows to eat up the profits produced by their good cows and they were quick to adopt better and more profitable methods UL‘LLUI- uu“ ulULU P‘UHUGUIU Illuttlvtnu d‘he hundreds of co-operative D.

It has been demonstrated by the sensus returns and other official statistics, by the work of the experi- mental farms and agricultural col- leges. and by numerous private in- vesrigations of dairy herds that a large prOportion of our cows are kept at an actual loss. An educatiOnal campaign that will bring dairy farm- ers face to face with facts as they ex. ist on their own farms is urgently needed in this country. The problem of weeding out the cows that cannot be made to yield milk at aprofit is by‘ far the most important one that con- fronts our dairymen today. The 1 possibilities in time connection were well illustrated by professor Grisdale at the recent Winter Fair at Guelph. He told of a friend of his who had increased the average production of his herd from $35 in one year to $45 the next. although the price of cheese remained the same. In the third year, with cheese considerably high- er. the average of his herd came up to $60, and in the following to $71). This was accomplished by more skil- ful feeding. by weeding our impro- fitable cows, and by buying from neighbors better producing cows, of whose value the owners were ignor- ant -â€"-â€"- .4..._..A,w- Chamberlain’ s Cough Remedy Abso. lately Harmless.
