This may appear to be wasting feed, but thia is the Important period when it is most valuable During the last few weeks of the minting period grain may be fed at the rale of one pound to each two pounds of milk produced, reducing at the period when the cow la to he dried. When dry. about eight |>ouud» of grain should he fed dally—more If the cow la in poor condition. It would not be profitable to feed Inferior cows this way. The grain ration should be bulky. Isxatlrc and nutritious, having •lightly more carbohydrau-s than a milk ration, with a nutritive ratio of about one of protein to seven of carbohydrate and fat equivalent. During thia period protein and fatty tiasuea are actually being stored upon the body to be used in the production of milk before the cow 1* tu ahai* to digest end assimilate a full ration. U la )uat as serious to crowd the appetite during the Unit mouth after caivlug as to neglect to lay on thia si 4>ply of nutrients. The cow should be kept hun-

On the day of calving a pound and a half of epauo ■alt, lukewarm water and good Uaj are enough to a well coudiiiuord cow. although t quarts of bran ma*li may be useful.
