AUCTIONS. ,ft MATSON AND CO. ..■■ I.! I . ■—■ ST<\RT CALVES RIGHT. \fILfANY a poor milking cow owes its inferiority to a bad start in life. No 1 matter how well-bred she may stave been, she cannot become a heavy and profit-earner if she has ifaceived a check in her early growth through being denied some of the food elements essential to the building of a strong frame and a sounu constitution. Too many humpy yearling heifers with harsh, staring, yellowish coats find their way to the cattle markets, and the odds are heavy against their ever becoming cows worth milking. Sometimes the land on which these l wretched youngsters have baen reared is; blamed, and, indeed, not a few pastures land paddocks are saturated with dis- ' fose and need that cleansing rest jfcrhich only a period of arable treat*iment can give. But clean grazing will also rear low grade stock if it 13 starved ,t fertilisers, and if those materials that form lean flesh, sinew, bone, teeth, horns, and hoofs . are Jacking in the food. Nature forces a cow to rob her own body rather than that of her offspring, and that is why full milk is such a safe rearing food lor calves. But ii is wasteful to, much milk for them if it can be' 41 at current rates, as substitutes- arf-j only much cheaper, but can be il upon to grow strong, shape* heifers with the bloom taslth, and revealing 1 of excellent milkers.; •when four to five nibbling diy. utter awjr , 'A * t . 1 nn.-nffi 1 ■, Fr^rf T ..&¥£'' ■ 'Si Jtdxed (Mt» Osgood admit* 20 parts Iter ley meal, parts o£ white Jk meaL From thd first, haje , mittf in racks ana clean, pure mer always within reach.
