Feeding- Out the Calf
It is one thing to have a calf. It Is
another thing to feed it out success
fully. Calves are just a kind of baby
after all. Their growth and proper
development is essential to the wel
fare of our nation. The time has
passed when we can leave the calf
to grow up by Itself. Below are some
of the things which should be ob
served in order that we may feed out
the calf successfully. Keep these
facts in mind. .Encourage our boys to
become progressive stockmen.
All other things being equal, the
calf that is the most intelligently
and most liberally fed will be the one
that wins the most prizes, and too
much emphasis cannot be laid upon
the importance of rational feeding. It
would be well for the member to
adopt as a motto, “Never let the calf
get hungry.” This does not mean
that the calf should be overfed on
high-priced grain or mill feeds, but
for the best results good pasturage,
bright, clean hay or both should be
kept constantly before the prospec
tive show calf, and the roughage side
of the ration should receive first con
sideration since this will be the
cheapest part of the feed. The calf’s
appetite should absolutely be the
measure of the amount of hay, straw,
pasturage, etc., that is given. Alfalfa
and peavine hay will be the most
satisfactory roughage available on
the average farm. Where silage can
be had it should be fed abundantly.
The run of a rye patch will be most
valuable for the older calves dur
ing the winter months. During the
summer they should be provided with
the most luxuriant pasture possible.
After the weather becomes hot and
flies annoying they will put on gains
more rapidly jf kept in a darkened
barn during the day with the rack
Well filled with bright hay constantly
before them and turned on the pas
ture at night.
Milk is nature’s universal feed for
all growing animals, and it is Im
possible to make calves thrive and
grow as well without milk as with it.
Where it is possible even the junior
yearlings should be kept nursing a
heavy milking cow until after the
last show of the fall season. This
may not be practical on many farms.
Skim milk will be much cheaper and
can be provided in more cases than
nurse cows. While it is not as good
for making show beef calves, it is
an excellent substitute for the whole
milk, and, under all circumstances, at
least skim milk should be provided
for the calves until they are from
five to six months old.
For the calves that are to be
raised on skim milk the following
precautions should be observed:
1. Separate the calf from the cow
when it is from two to four days old
If it is kept out of sight of the
mother there will be less fretting
and worry on the part of both.
f- F .? r the flrst two weeks give the
calf about two quarts of the mother’s
milk night and morning. By allowing
it to miss one feed but little diffi
culty will be encountered in teaching
1( r tbe fingers and drink from
the bucket. For the first week it
would be better if this dailv allow
ance of milk could be divided into
three feeds Instead of two.
3. At the end of two weeks grad
ua:“y to change from whole
milk to skim milk. Each day give
a pint less of the mother’s milk and
P. s J n . a of skim milk instead
until the calf is completely changed
over to skim milk.
4. When the calf is about two
weeks old, it should be taught to eat
grain. A mixture of equal parts of
cracked corn, oats and bran will be
most desirable. The grain should be
fed immediately after the milk is
given.
5. Nothing but clean buckets should
be used in feeding milk to calves.
Alany of the ill results seen from
feeding skim milk to calves are due
to dirty buckets. , The buckets used
for feeding should be thoroughly
washed, scalded and aired after each
feeding.
6. Over-feeding is also responsible
for lack of growth in skim milk
calves, A good general rule is to
feed a pint of it for each ten pounds
of live weight in the calf. This is
a general guide and at no time should
.more than a gallon be given at a
teed. . ■
7. The skim milk should always
be heated to about body temperatures
before it is fed. That is, around 100
degrees Fahrenheit.
8. Only sweet, clean milk fit for
human food should be given to the
calves.'Buttermilk has been success
fully fed to growing calves and if
a uniform supply of it is available
there ife no real reason why this
should not be fed, but as a rule it
will be more satisfactory not to try
to feed them on buttermilk. It is
sure to upset the digestion of the
calf if frequent changes are made
back and forth from buttermilk to
Skim milk.
Ir digestion and scours are fre
quently seen in bucket fed calves.
This condition is usually caused by
failure to observe some of the pre
cautions just given. When the con
dition is firn, observed an effort
should be made to locate the cause
and, remove it. Then give the calf
two to four tablespoonsful of castor
oil and cut the milk allowance in
half or even let the calf miss one
feed and then gradually bring It back

to the full allowance of milk. In
most cases this will relieve the con
dition However, if it is persistent
the following treatment will be
found effective.. Put one-half ounce
of formaldehyde into fifteen and one
half ounces of distilled or rain wa
ter. Give one teaspoonful of this
mixture to each pint of milk fed.
The treatment should be continued
until all signs of Indigestion have
disappeared.
Corn, oats and bran mixed in equal
proportions, is a standard ration for
growing calves. However, market
prices of feeding stuffs will have an
influence on the economy of gain. In
many localities velvet bean meal -and
peanut meal are available and there
is no reason for not making liberal
use of these feeds. It is not advisa
ble to give cotton, seed meal to calves
under six months of age. After this
time it should gradually be intro
duced into the ration. The follow
ing suggested rations will prove
satisfactory and the ration or com
bination of rations that can be se
cured most economically in a given
community should be used. The
amounts given are approximately for
average calves and as indicated the
appetite of the prospective show calf
should govern largely the amount of
hay and concentrates that will be al
lowed.
Suggested. Bations
Six weeks’ to three months old: An
equal mixture by weight of corn, oats
and wheat bran. Feed what they
will clean up. Do not feed cotton
seed meal before calves are six
months old.
Three months old—2 pounds corn,
2 pounds oats, 1 pound wheat brand,
4 pounds hay.
Four months old—l pound velvet
bean meal, 2 pounds oats, 1 pound
wheat bran, 2 pounds corn, 4 pounds
hay, or 1 1-2 pounds velvet bean
meal, 3 pounds oats, 4 pounds hay.
Six months old—s pounds corn, 2
pounds oats, 1 1-2 pounds , velvet
bean meal, 1-2 to 1 pound cotton
seed meal, 6 to 8 pounds of hay.
Eight months old —4 pounds velvet
bean meal, 3 pounds oats. 1 pound
cottonseed meal, 5 pounds corn, 8
pounds hay.
Gett’-'g Ready for the Fall Oat Crop
D. H. C., Woodland, Ga.,
writes: I want your advice about
some land I wish to sow in oats
this fall. There are seventy acres
and it nas been in pasture for
four years. The clover and Ber
muda are about five inches high
and a perfect carpet of grass.
When will be the best time to
turn this under and how should
it be fertilized? What about
using nitrate of soda?
It is too bad to destroy as valuable
Bermuda and clover sod as your let
ter would indicate you now possess.
A grazing area of this character
should be very valuable on every
farm, and I would hesitate to de
stroy the same. If you have decided
finally to plant oats, however, I
would break up this land any time
between now and the fifteenth of
September when seasonal conditions
were favorable. It would be desir
able to turn It under to a good depth
and immediately roll and harrow the
land. By this process you will
bring the moisture Immediately to
the surface which will help to cause
the rapid decay of the grass roots
and prevent the land drying out.
This is important because you would
wish to prevent the grass turned un
der from flre-fanging and causing an
unusual loss of nitrogen or of am
monia thereby. In planting oats on
this land, we would prefer to get
them in as easily as practicable be
cause in all of our experience we
have found that the early planting
of this crop gives the best results.
We us© abeut a peck and a bushel
of seed per acre. We plant fairly
deep, and to insure a crop prefer
the open furorw method. Drilling
in the deepest, widest furrows pos
sible with a grain drill proves ef
fective in a mild winter. In severe
winters, freezes frequently destroy
crops of oats thus planted. We be
lieve you will find it desirable to use
about two hundred pounds of acid
phosphate at the time of planting
your crop. Seasonal conditions in
the spring will determine whether
it is good practice to use nitrate of
soda. If the crop is backward,
small, yellow and sickly in appear
ance, use from fifty to one hundred
pounds of nitrate of soda as a top
dressing. Apply it about the first
to the fifteenth of March.

The Country Home
BY MRS. W. H. FELTON
THE TRAGEDY IN RUSSIA
Those of us who are familiar with
the story of the French revolution,
which followed close upon the in
dependence of the United States in
the year 1776, are always reminded
of the death of Louis XVI and of
Maria Antoinette, his wife and queen
of the French people. Those incidents
stand out in front whenever the
French Revolution is discussed or re
membered. It was understood that
the executed king was the most kind
ly disposed of all their kings, and
with desires to relieve the conditions
which oppressed France under the
old regipi®- queen, a petted
daughter of Austria, was blamed for
everything that displeased the popu
lace, and when the crisis came she
was carried to the guillotine in a
tumbril with other victims, her hands
tied behind her back and her long
hair suddenly whitened by intense
mental anguish, also fell over her
face and almost blinded her as she
was tossed about in the jolting cart
on her way to death. The guillotine
was kept busy, day by day, chopping
off the heads of the victims. If
these victims were of the wealthy
class, or had been prominent in so
cial or political life, that was quite
enough to doom them to the gullo
tine.
It has always seemed as If this
tragedy in France was the limit 'of
mob violence. King Charles the First
was carried to the scaffold in Eng
land, but the hate did not extend to
his wife or children.
In a few years Charles the Second
ascended the throne, and if he had.
been an upright and honorable per
son even as good as his father the
House of Stuart, might liave been
on the English throne at this time.
The tragedy that heads the list
and which occurred two years ago
in July, 1918, was the massacre of
Czar Nicholas of Russia, along with
his wife and their five children by
mob violence in Russia. Just think
of the brutal assassination of four
grown young ladies, innocent and
harmless girls, by the orders of a
political faction setting in the Palace
of Petrograd, the former home of the
crowned rulers of the Russian em-
P The entire family, except the
mother of Czar Nicholas, were thus
exterminated. Dowager Empress
Dagmar is the sister Dowager Queen
Alexander of England. It is sup
posed that she was able to make her
escape to her sister, or to some of
her kindred in Denmark or Greece-
If she had been captured, it is like
ly she would have been shot or
stabbed to death with the others, and
then burned in a huge fire after-
many of their associates who
also perished in a samllar way has
not yet been told, but the tale ot
horror grows as it is being exposed
to public gaze.
In the story of the ages, hundreds
of people have been destroyed in
religious wars, and it seems that
the human mind turns to violence,
both in politics and religion.
There was a mixture of religious
furry in the massacre of the czar
and czarina. The poor woman has
been violently blamed for her obedi
ence and devotion to a priest of her
church. Unaccountable stories have
been printed about her and her ab
sorption in religious fervor.
The hysteria of war is one of the
deadly things that make the popu
lace lose its head, and get ready for
mob violence. We who read history
know the story of Joan of Arc, who
was the military leader of the’
French people and saved France from
English domination in her time.
Later on her own people turned
against her, and finally burned her.
as a witch. Nevertheless, in later
days, the French people build mon
uments to her and worship her name
and memory.
But of all the tragedies recorded
up to date is this wholesale mas
sacre of the czar’s family in Russia,
in July, 1918. Five of the number
were innocent and helpless. They
had wronged nobody; their only
crime was being born in a Russian
palace and the children of Nicholas
11, and as the story goes on down
the ages, it will stand out as a
fiendish desire for human blood and
t’os wreaking of mob vengeance on
the helpless children of an emperor.
As I see it, that one act will aways
becloud the movement to free Rus
sia from monarchy. It will wake
up sympathizers that were friendly
to a Russian republic, and it will
warn those who are unfriendly to
monarchy that the remedy as ap
plied was worse than the disease.
MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
I am sixteen years old, am in love
with a boy eighteen, he don’t seem
to care for me. What can I do to
gain his love? He hasn’t been with
me in a long time, but we were to
gether a lot last year. Should I
invite him to my home to an enter-/
tainment or not? If so, what should
I say. I am 6 feet high; how long
should I year my dresses. How
should I fix my hair? I have blue
eyes. What color would suit me
best? How old does a girl have to
be to be an old maid? Is it proper
for a girl to ride in a car with two
boys? Please answer soon as I am
so lonely. LILLIE.
Let the boy alone for awhile,
he will do his own persuing if he
has any regard for you at all.
Very often young men “rush” a
girl for a reason and think they
are wildly in love but another
girl happens along later and
they soon forget the first flame.
Try to get interested in some
one else; you are very tall,
therefore, you cast wear your
skirts about ten inches from the
floor. Short skirts will be fash
ionable this fall. Some girls are
typical “old maids” at eighteen.
Then others are not considered
old maids at thirty. It depends
on the woman more than any
thing else. Fix your hair the
most becoming way to your
face. There is no harm for a
girl to go to ride in a car with
two young men if she behaves
herself and they are gentlemen.
A young girl cannot be too par
ticular these days.
Here comes a lonely girl to you
for advice. I am twenty-four years
old and in love with a boy 23, but he
don’t seem to care for me. He went
to France and wrote me nearly every
week while he was off. But since he
came back he don’t seem to care for
me. if any one has talked to him
about myself and turned him, will
he ever care for me again? He
seemed to think more of me than
any one else before he went off. I
have seen him lots of times since he
came back, but neither one spoke.
Should he or I speak first? I am
five feet high. How long should I
wear my dresses? Please answer in
the Tri-Weekly at once as I am
lonely.
BLUE BIRD.
Going to France has spoiled
and changed many of our
young men. If he cared for you
before going away, and he has
come back changed toward you,
without any explanation on his
part, I would advise you to drop
him, if you aren’t to blame in
any way. Be too proud to lay
your love in the dust at his
feet. He may have a fancied
grievance, but if he feels that
you haven’t treated him right, he
should at least seek an explana
tion. But if you are sure you
aren t to blame, let him go his
own gait, and he may see how
foolish he has a.ted later. But
not put yourself in a light
that will lessen his respect for
you.
You can wear dresses eight
inches from floor.
I am a girl, fourteen years of age,
coming to you for advice. I don't
loye the boys but just like them as
friends. I have a boy friend, nine
teen years of age. Don’t you think
I could let him come once in a while?
Am I too young to correspond with
a boy? I have blue eyes, brown
hair and medium complexion. What
color do you think I should wear?
Please tell me something to make
the hair grow and to remove sun
burn. Thanking you for your advice
and hoping to see this in The Jour
nal.

Dear Aunt Julia and Cqusins: Will- you
admit’another Georgia girl into your happy

Listen! If you boys and girls don’t believe
I will answer all cards and letters received,

Dear Aunt Julia: Would you let an Ala
bama girl loin your club? I live on the
farm, and I know most of the other boys
and girls do. I go to school; I am in the
fifth grade. I guess you wonder how 1 look.
I have black hair, gray eyes, fair complex
ion. I am thirteen years old. 1 wifi, be

Hey, there, cousins and Aunt Julia! Will
you all just please let me in to chat with
you all for just a few minutes. I promise
not to stay long. This makes my second
time to try to get in. I hope I will succeed
this time. Well, I guess you all want tp
know what I look like. Here goes: Brown
hair and eyes and dark complexion. I will
be sixteen next 4th of May. Height : 61
inches, weigh 95 pounds. Now, how many
have my birthday, and how many of you
got scared? Somebody run for the camphor
bottle, I see some of them have fainted.
Say, come from behind the door, Otha Ed
wards. Well, I guess I had better keep my
promise. Say, some of you cousins write
to me and I will assure you you will get an
answer. I hear Mr. W. B. coming.' r will
come to a close by asking Aunt Julia to
please print this. So all of you cousins let
your letters fly to
A new cousin,
MISS MADGE THOMAS.
Spray, N. C.
Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will you
please tnake room for an Alabama girl? This
is my first attempt to write you. I have
dark hair, black eyes, fair complexion and
weigh ninety-five pounds. If this is printed,
I will come again. My father takes The
I do not think you are too young
to correspond with a boy, pro
vided you do not stick a lot of
“mush” in your letters for him
to make sport of. Be very care
ful wha tyou put on paper. Let
ters have away of making one
feel very uncomfortable later, as
it often happens. So never put
anything in a letter you would
mind others seeing. You can
wear most any shade or color,
provided you do not wear a va
riety at one time. Brush the
hair well and let the air get to
it as much as possible. Sun
burn is very hard to get rid of.
Sweet milk is very good to .use,
or buttermilk. Stay out of the
glare as much as possible until
it wears off. Lemon water is
very good also. Squeeze a fresh
lemon into a pint of warm wa
ter, or even less water and bathe
the face, neck and arms several
times a day in it. But keep in
doors as much as possible while
using it.
Here I come to you for advice. I
am a poor married lady. I have one
little boy and am only 14 years old.
My husband is mean to me, He
doesn’t love me, and he won’t look
at my little boy. Please advise me
what to do. Everybody said I was
pretty before I married but they do
not say it now. I have black hair,
dark complexion, brown eyes, and
weigh 110 pounds. How do you
think I look? Hope to see my let
ter in print, for I am in trouble,
S. S.
There is very little advice I
can give you. You married too
young and you aren’t wise
enough to carry the burden of
maried life upon your should
ders. Try to put up with your
husband for a while longer un
til your child is old enough to
be left in some one’s care. Then
you might be able to support
yourself. You are inexperienc
ed and therefore will have to
wait until you are older. See
if you cannot win your husband
back to you by being kind to
him. You must have patience,
and try to do your duty the
best you know how, and after
a while conditions may brighten
up for you: Nine out' of ten ■
girls who marry so young do not
know the seriousness and obli
gations pertaining to marriage,
and they usually end in the di
vorce court. j
