That provisions be made by suitable legislation to insure the proper and continuous maintenance of all state roads. The foregoing resolution was adopted by the farmers of Missouri, who attended the good roads meetings of the annual Farmer’s Week recently held at Columbia. The Federal Law in regard to roads was explained by Dean E. J. McCAUSTLAND of the School of Engineering of the University of Missouri. The share which Missouri will receive from the new ???, which appropriates $75,000,000 to be apportioned to the various states within the five consecutive years for road work is $2,500,000. “the law also provides” Dean McCAUSTLAND says, “that the state must have an efficient state highway commission before it can get the benefit of this fund. Missouri is not in condition to take advantage of this opportunity just now, but a bill will be introduced in this assembly to raise the standard of the department. It provides for a commission of four men two from each of the two leading political parties, which will appoint a highway engineer and two deputies. A road map is now being prepared providing for the improvement of between 3,000 and 4,000 miles of road within the five years in which the state is to receive federal aid.” [AD] Grand Ball at Marschel’s Hall Goldman, Mo.

Economical feeding demands that cose be fed as individuals, and not as a herd. Too frequently each cow in a herd is fed the same amount of grain, regardless of how much milk she is producing. By this practice some cows will be underfed, while others will be overfed. It should be understood that an animal always uses a certain amount of food it receives to maintain the body. Thes is the first use to which the food is put, and is called the rations of maintenance. This amount is required by the animal whither[sic] or not she is producing milk. All feed above this amount is used for milk production, or is stored on the body of the animal as fat. In the case of the young animal part of this excess is used for growth. Of the two mistakes made in feeding perhaps underfeeding is most common, according to C. H. ECKLES of the Missouri College of Agriculture. It is a serious mistake to feed a cow only enough to keep up her body. She must receive feed to keep her milk production up to capacity. If a cow loses weight while in milk, she is not receiving sufficient food. A good cow, if not fed enough, will produce milk for a time at the expense of her body that is, she will take the surplus flesh from her body, and convert it into milk and and thereby will lose live weight. On the other hand, when a cow is over fd[sic] she will begin to fatten in a short time. This condition may be corrected by giving her only the amount she needs for maintenance and for milk production. Such feeding will maintain practically a uniform weight. Roughness is the first important consideration in feeding cows. A cow is not contented unless her stomach is full. She would always have all theroughness that she will clean up and then the amount of grain she receives should be regulated by the amount of milk produced. A dry cow in good condition should be fed roughness only, and does not need any grain. In feeding grain to milk producing cows, the following rule may be used, and is found to work fairly well: Feed one pound of grain for each 3 pounds or pints of milk given. A Jersey cow producing very rich milk may need a little more grain than the amount given.
