How to Feed
Young Dairy Calves
More calves see the light of day in
the spring and draw their first
breath when the air is filled with the
fragrance of many blossoms than
during any other season of the year.
Whether these calves will become
star boarders, producing little milk
of no profit for their owners, or be
jwir|M« additions to the dairy world,
will depend not only upon the care
that is given them but upon the feed

and management of their mothers.
Poorly nourished cows, say dairy
specialists of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture, give birth to weak
calves that are hard to raise. Cows
which have an abundance of palat
able succulent feed and are in good
body flesh and healthy, thrifty con
dition at calving time are more like
ly to produce well-developed, strong,
thrifty calves which will respond nor
mally to proper feed and care. It is
false economy for any dairy-cow
.owner to withhold feed from a dry
cow, as this is likely to affect un
favorably the future welfare of the
calf, as well as later milk produc
tion by the cow.
Nature's method is to have the calf
stay with the cow until it can sup
port itself. In modern dairy farm
ing, however, because of the value
of the butter fat and whole milk the
dairyman separates the calf from the
cow soon after birth. The milk pro
duced by the cow for the first few
days has properties which put the
calf's digestive system in good work
ing order. It is, therefore, necessary
that the newly born calf have this
milk. Most dairymen prefer to keep
the calf with its mother for about
48 hours immediately after birth, but
if the calf is weak it is best to allow
it to remain longer.
Teaching the Calf to Drink
The longer the calf remains with
the cow, however, the harder it is to
teach it to drink, but it is usually a
simple matter to teach a good, ro
bust calf to drink, if taken when not
more than two days old. Before this
is attempted a calf should be kept
from the cow for about 12 hours it
will then be very hungry. About
2 quarts of its mother's milk, fresh
and warm, should be put into a clean
pail and held in front of the calf.
Sometimes it will put its nose into
the pail and drink without coaxing.
Dairymen are not fortunate enough
to have many calves that will do this,
however, and in most cases it will be
necessary to use a little forceful per
suasion in assisting the calf with its
first meal away from its mother. Let
the calf suck the fingers, and by
this means gradually draw its nose
into the milk, when the fingers should
be removed carefully as soon as the
calf gets a taste of the milk. Pa
tience is necessary, for this opera
tion may have to be repeated two or
three times before the calf will drink
alone. If the calf is unusually stub
born and it is necessary to use force,
try not to frighten or unduly excite
it.
A calf weighing 50 pounds at birth
should have about 8 pounds of whole
milk a day, while a 100-pound calf
should have about 12 pounds. The
amount of milk should be gradually
increased until at the end of the sec

At the beginning of the third week
either skim or separated milk may
be substituted for whole milk at the
rate of 1 pound a day. The daily
ration may be increased from 2 to 4
pounds, depending upon the vigor of
the calf. When the calf does not
drink eagerly what is offered, the
quantity should be cut down. The
ration at the end of the third week
usually should be approximately one
half whole and on^-half Separated
milk. During the fourth week the
change should be continued until by
the end of the week only separated
milk is fed, unless the calf is very
delicate. With especially vigorous
calves the change to separated milk
can be made about a week earlier.
The quantity fed can be increased
gradually to 18 to 20 pounds a day.
Six months is probably a good aver
age age at which to wean calves
from the milk. The age depends up
on the cost of the milk in relation to
the value of the calf, its breed, size,
vigor, etc. The season of the year
and the other feeds available also
must be considered. When the best
of hay, silage, and a good variety of
grains are available, or when good,
succulent pasturage can be provided,
the calf can be weaned earlier also
the stronger and more vigorous the
calf the earlier it can be weaned. On
the other hand, the more valuable
the calf the more expense the owiier
is warranted in developing it, and
the later it will probably be weaned.
If skim or separated milk is plenti
ful, calves may be fed it with profit
until they are 8 or 10 months old.

ond week the calf should receive
from 14 to 16 pounds a day. Its
mother's milk should be given a calf
for the first 4 days, then any good
whole milk can be used, but prefer
ably it should not contain more than
4 per cent butter fat. Best results
can be obtained by feeding young
calves three times a day, with the
periods between feeding as nearly
equal as possible. When fed in this
way the calf does not overload its
stomach and the digestion of the feed
is more evenly distributed through
out the 24 hours. Regularity in
feeding is important. When calves
are fed but twice a day the feeding
should be as nearly as possible 12
hours apart.
Cleanliness Essential
Successful raising of calves re
quires absolute cleanliness. Calf pens
should always be kept clean and be
supplied with plenty of dry bedding.
Discarded feed should be removed
from the feed boxes, which should
be thoroughly brushed and cleaned
each day. All milk fed should be
fresh and clean, which is true also
of other feeds. Milk pails should be
scalded thoroughly with boiling wa
ter, or sterilized with steam if pos
sible.

Points on Feeding Calves
Feed regularly.
Be sure that the milk is always

Helpful Recipes
For the Housewife
The housewife who is overlooking
the possibilities in peanut butter,
during these days of mean conserva
tion, is missing a good chance of sup
plying her family with a food pos
sessing a high protein and a high
energy value at a low cost.
Peanut butter was used first as
food for the sick later it appeared
on the home table as a side dish. Of
late years, it has come into its own
and its value as a supplier of protein
and fat in the diet is now well recog
nized.
The larger part of that now used is
made in peanut butter factories, but
many still prefer to make in the home
what they use. An ordinary food
chopper is used for the purpose—salt
may be added to the nuts before or
after grinding.
Peanut Butter Recipes
Remember when planning your
recipes that peanut butter possesses
950 calories per pound.
Peanut-Butter Omelet
4 eggs, 4 tablespoons milk, 6 table
spoons peanut butter, 1 tablespoon
salt.
Mix peanut butter with the milk.
Separate the whites and yolks of the
eggs and beat well. Blend milk with
the beaten yolks and fold in the beat
en whites. Brown the omelet and
fold. Serve on a hot platter with a
cream or tomato sauce.
Peanut-Butter Loaf
2 cups bread crumbs, 1 cup cooked
rice, 1-2 cup chopped stuffed olives,
1-4 teaspoon celery salt, 1-2 cup pea
nut butter, 1 teaspoon onion juice,
2 teaspoons salt, 2 eggs, 1-2 cup
milk.
Mix the ingredients and form into
a loaf. Bake until brown. Serve with
a tomato sauce.
Scalloped' Rice with Peanut-Butter
Sauce
Make a peanut sauce as follows:
2 cups milk, 2 tablespoons flour, 6
tablespoons peanut butter, 2 tea
spoons salt, 2 teaspoons onion juice,
2 1-2 cups cooked rice.
Blend the flour and the peanut but
ter with a little cold milk. Add to
the hot milk with the seasonings.
Cook until it thickens. Put a layer
of rice in a baking dish and cover
with a layer of the peanut sauce. Re
peat until the dish is full. Bake in
an oven for 20 minutes.
Peanut-Butter Salad Dressing
1-2 cup sour cream, 2 tablespoons
peanut butter, 2 tablespoons vinegar,
1 egg, 1-2 tablespoon sugar, 1-2 tea
spoon salt, 1-4 teaspoon mustard, 1-8
teaspoon paprika.
Mix and cook in a double boiler un
til thickened.
Peanut-Butter Sandwich Cream
1 cup milk, 1 tablespoon flour, 1
tablespoon water, 1 egg, 1 teaspoon
salt, 1-4 teaspoon paprika, 2 table
spoons vinegar, 1-2 cup chopped stuff
ed olives, 1 cup peanut butter.
Heat the milk in a double boiler.
Blend the flour, water and peanut
butter to a smooth paste, add sail
and paprika and the egg beater
slightly. Mix with the hot milk
and cook for five minutes in the
double boiler. Add the chopped
olives and vinegar. Cool and spread
on sandwiches.
Make only the quantity needed for
immediate use, as this sandwich
cream does not keep well.
Peanut-Butter Cookies
1-2 cup corn sirup, 1-2 cup sugar,
4 tablespoons shortening, 8 table
spoons peanut butter, 1-4 cup milk,
2 eggs, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon
vanilla, 3 teaspoons baking powder,
2 1-2 cups rice flour, 2 1-2 cups
wheat flour.
Peanut-Butter Cake Filling
1-2 cup corn sirup, 1 tablespoon
vinegar, 1-4 teaspoon salt, 2 table
spoons peanut butter, The white of
1 egg.
Cook the corn sirup with the vine
gar until it forms a hard ball when
dropped in cold water. Pour over
the beaten egg white and beat until
stiff. Add the peanut butter the
last thing. Spread between the lay
ers of a simple 1 egg cake or sponge
cake. Serve with a fork.
CARE OF BROOD SOWS
Brood sows should have dry, well
ventilated, well lighted, well bedded
quarters in which to live. If these
conditions are provided the building
r.eed not be so warm. Good results
can not be expected if they arc kept
in dark, damp quarters no matter how
warm or how well fed. The brood
sow should also be made to take
abme exercise!. This is sometimes
done by feeding them a little ways
from the sleeping quarters.— Exten
sion Div. N. D. Agr. College.
GRIMM ALFALFA
New reports of the hardiness of
Grimm alfalfa are being continually
received by the North Dakota Ex
periment Station. The Grimm al
falfa even if it does cost more for
seed than other varieties is cheaper
in the end, as the chances are that
f»ps?i!
the other variety will freeze out some
winter, and then comes the task of
starting over. This is not only ex
pensive, but it causes a loss of a crop
and usually upsets some plans. In
North Dakota a seed crop can be se
cured from the second growth of al
falfa. If it is Grimm, it will bring
a larger price.—Extension Div. N. D.

as unmarried.
Any married person living with wife
er husband whose 1918 net income was
$2,000 or over. The income of both
husband and wife must be considered,
together with the earnings of minor
children, if any.
