DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT MONDAY, NOVEMBER 29,1926.

DAIRY FACTS MILK PRODUCTION EASY TO STABILIZE Live stock farmers can ttluro nearly stabilize production than grain farm ers. Weather does not Influence livestock production to us great an extent us grain crops. Dairy farmers cun stabilize their production more than most classes of live stock for the reason that their production is constantly going to market. Labor also forms an Important factor In the production of dairy products and is an additional factor which makes for stabilization.. The dairyman, however, has not equalized hts production during the different seasons of the year, as much us might be generally profitable. During the high prices for butterfat in December there is only 5 or 0 per cent of the product marketed, while on tin- ' cheaper June market approximately 12 or 13 per cent of the product Is sold. Older dairy territories are rapidly correcting the summer milking tendency and are more nearly stabilizing production. They are doing this as It j gives them more profit. If nil of the dairymen In the country would change It would mean that winter dairying was not as profitable as summer dairying. Feed and market conditions cause changes in the dairy market conditions, If feed prices are high as compared to tile price of dairy products the feeding is curtailed, some cows are sold for beef, both helping to relieve the general market condition. When the opposite condition exists, which lias been true In the past, feeding and milking are both expanded. The fact that butter prices are becoming lower at the present time is proof of the working of this factor.

West Virginia Dairyman Gives Some Poor Advice Constantly farmers are told how to run a dairy herd, but seldom are they openly given advice on how to run it down. A West Virginia farmer, long a dairyman, an honor pupil in the graduate school of experience and hagil knocks, offers six rules for dairymen who want to flirt with bankruptcy. It’s this way: “Feed timothy to cows—it’s good

for race horses. “Keep water ice cold —shivering gives the cows exercise. | “Cow-testing associations are needless—they (show how to save and | know. ' , t “Don’t have any Windows in the barn—ttie hired man might look out. , I “Avoid heavy milkers—they take up too much time. “Don’t weigh the milk —It might cause extra figuring." > Legume Hays and Grain Will Help Heifers Along “Heifers that stop growing or that lose flesh, waste feed and interest on I the money invested in them." says W. ' J. Fraser at the University of Illinois. He further points out that summer Is. the time to put cheap growth on I heifers. Too often, because of poor pastures, heifers make too slow gains or are stunted. Tests made by C. C. Hayden at the i Ohio experiment station showed al- . salsa hay to bo slightly superior to soy-bean hay wh?r, fed liberally with corn. Either alfalfa, clover or soybean hay when fed with corn, Is capable of supporting better than socalled normal growth in heifers. When legume hays and corn are Available. Hayden concludes that a greater variety of proteins or high-protein grains do not seem necessary to grow choice heifers. Oil Meal for Calves A pound of gain for every three and one-third pounds of oil meal fed. was the record made In an Ohio calf feeding experiment. A saving of one-third the alfalfa hay was made when two pounds of oil meal was added to the ration of corn silage and alfalfa hay. Calves fed corn silage and alfalfa hay for 140 days gained at the rate of 1.33 pounds. The addition of two pounds of oil meal raised the daily gain to 1.93 pounds, an increase of .fl pound daily. Three Kinds of Flies There are three different kinds of flies that bother dairy cows to a large extent. The common house fly annoys cattle by crawling over them and feeding on the secretions about the eyes, etc., but do not suck blood. The stable fly is provided with a beak which enables it to suck blood. The horn fly, is distinctly smaller than either of the other two flies. Sanitation Is the most important method of disposing of all these pests. Satisfactory Dairy Barn By the statement that every dairyman should have a suitable barn, it Is not meant to imply that a fortune should he invested In one. Under present conditions, it is doubtful whether any farmer Is .Instilled in incurring great expense for the erection of an elaborate dairy barn. There are a few qualifications which make a dairy barn a suitable place. The most Important are probably wa'rmth, Ijght, ventilation, sanitation and conven I lence.

OSS COWS AND HEIFERS FED SPROUTED OATS (Prepared by lh« United St*t<« Depnrtm.nt us Agriculture ) Six virgin dairy heifers that had failed to get with calf after being re pentedly served by different sires ut the United) States Department of Agriculture dairy experiment farm, l.elts vllle, MU., were fed sprouted oats lu un effort to correct their barren condition. According to R. R. Graves, in charge of the experiment, live of the six heifers were settled In calf after 30 days of this special feeding. Six dairy cows that had raised calves but had apparently become unable to con celve were fed sprouted oats also with the result tjiat live of them got with calf after 19 to 48 days of feeding. ' Similar tests made at the Oregon ex I perimeut station upon the suggestion of Mr. Graves gave equally favorable results. Feeding sprouted oats to overcome uonconception In dairy heifers and I cows was suggested to Mr. Graves by ! a study of the work done with small i animals at the University of California in which it was discovered that a tilth vitamin hud a bearing on the fertility and reproductive organs. This vitamin, named vitamin E, was found in such feeds as green leaves of lettuce and alfalfa. Whether or not the fertility results obtained in heifers and cows fed sprouted oats is due to a vitamin lias not been determined, nor have enough trials been made to conclude definitely that the method will always give positive results. Mr. Graves points out that animals in their uudomesticated state have a breeding season closely allied with the spring flush of new grass; and that under modern methods of management, cows and heifers are bred at all times of the year. Many of the cases of nonbreeding may be due to functional disorders brought about by a high state of domesticity in which the natural breeding season Is ignored. The beneficial effects of sprouted oats may be due to a simulation of natural dietarj conditions at the normal breeding season. Registered Dairy Bulls Found Most Profitable Helfer calves from common cows, sired by a registered bull, will produce 50 per cent more milk than the old cows and the second generation heifers, sired by a registered bull, will produce fully 75 per cent more milk and fat than tht» original common cows. This is not'a theory but a fact that has been demonstrated at. the experiment station at Ames, as well as at other similar institutions and on farms where work of this sort has been curried on. Registered dairy bulls can be secured at very reasonable figures and those who are in the dairy business are losing a great opportunity if they d<> not take advantage of getting registered sires for their herds. Intelligent dairying is profitable; hit-and-miss dairying, without a constructive plan back of it, is certain to lead to discouragement and ultimate failure. Clip Dairy Cattie That Are to Be ExhibitedDairy cattle that are to be shown this fall, particularly young animals, should be clipped all over at least six weeks previous to fair time. Clipping should be followed with a good washing with soap and water and a fairly light blanket. No further clipping will be necessary until just before showing, when the head, ears and tail should be trimmed up. Training tn leading will do much toward improving the animal's appearance in the show ring. Fitting will do much to improve an animal’s chance of win ning, but good* type individuals of large size for their age are of primary Importance. <-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-Dairy Hints •5-4- 4- 4- 4-:- 4- 4- 4- 4- 4* 4- 4- 4- ♦ 4- 4- <• 4- 4- 4- 4- 4- 4- ->4The summer silo is the best Insurance against luck of feed during dry hot summer days. * • * Cows in milk should be well fed at this time of year to guard against a rapid decline in production. * » * Herd improvement can come only when discarded cows are replaced by well-raised heifers of good breeding und type. • • • With milk worth on the market from $2.50 to $3 per hundredweight, the expense of raising the calves to replace tlie cows which must be culled from the herd is very great. • * • Why not organize a do-operative bull association in your community and have the use of a numtier of real dairy sires during the next few years, and at less cost than the owning mid keeping an ordinary bull yourself? * * * ’ Even if there is no evidence of the herd It is well to feed colostrum milk to all of the calves at birth before they have a chance to suckle their dam. To be effective the colostrum must reach the calf's stomach before‘any filth does.

Air Service Several years ago, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana), realizing the commercial importance of the aeroplane, set out to develop a gasoline and lubricating oil for aeroplane use. The work was carried on with the thoroughness and patience that characterize all the research of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). Experiment after experiment was worked out in the laboratories of the Company and many tests were made. Finally a gasoline and lubricating oil were developed by the Standard Oil Company i Indiana) to meet the requirements of the aeroplane with scientific perfection. The result is that today the Standard Oil Companj' (Indiana) furnishes the major part of the gasoline and lubricating oil used in aeroplanes. The early recognition by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) of the commercial importance of the aeroplane is evidence of the Company’s vision and ability to sense the significance of new developments. The growth of commercial aviation has only begun. Aeronautical experts foresee tremendous development in the next few years and the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) shares their faith. We are using aeroplanes in surveying, in photographing cities and mapping land tracts, in writing advertisements in the skv, in preventing forest fires. Aeroplanes are being used for passenger transportation. Air highwavs are independent of surface conditions. As the hazards of flying are being lessened, its popularity is increasing constantly. The aeroplane has proved its worth as a commercial carrier in time saved and money gained. The need is for extended airlines branching in all directions. The expansion of this form of air service will mean the speeding up of industry. Air mail has proved commercial aviation’s most notable success. It has revolutionized mail service. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is proud to contribute its share to the development of an air service that soon will draw this broad country of ours as closely together for business purposes as it has England and France. Tlie Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is marching onward with the pioneers of progr. ss, working with thought for the future, holding the steady purpoie to serve levallv and well the thirty million people of the Middltf West.
