An Ideal rution for a young Jersey

to get the latter, and a grain mixture
consisting of about equal parts of
brau and mill run, and corn or kaflr

wasting, and Just enough of the grain
mixture to keep it growing well with-
out letting it get too fat. It will de-
pend entirely upon the age of your
heifer how much of the grain mixture
it should be fed. When young the heifer
will grow better and make better
use of its feed than when It gets older,
so that it would he good policy to
keep it growing as fast as possible. To
check the animal's growth at this age
means that It will never develop Into

amounts are suited to the cow they
ought to kevp her producing to tne

rules are good within c<- tain limits,
but should not be followed blindly

larger amount of feed will give better
