The builder of a farm poultry house

Then have the cows come in fresh

have been milked all summer long are
not worth fussing with through the
cold winter months. They have done
their work. Their milk is now scanty
in quantity and thelr cream hard to

milk so long. Begin with fresh cows.
Make up your mind to feed well
The cows cannot get grass now. You
must make up to them as nearly as
you can for this lack. Feed liberal
allowances of the best hay you can

any kind of hay will make good milk.

his cows better than anybody else
does. He can prescribe for them more

Finally, keep just cs accurate an ac
