Spring calves are incapable of receiving much benefit from grass during the first season, because lor some time after birth the rummaging stomach is undeveloped and between summer heat and pestering Hies the thin-skinned creature has a sorry time of it. Winter comes on with its dry food iust when progress has commenced and this is apt to check growth, so that the animal is a full year old before it really starts on its career untrammeled. For this reason thousands of farmers are strong advocates of having calves dropped in the fall. There is then more time to give them the little attentions needed and since they live largely on milk they are easily managed in barn or shed and occupy but little room. When spring comes the youngsters are large enough to make good use of pasture and the result is progress from the start. When fall comes they return to the corral large enough to make good use of the feed there provided. Cows fresh in the fall yield a good flow of milk during winter if well fed and just when the milk flow begins to decrease materially comes the favorable change to grass, under the stimulus of which the yield is in- creased and held for some time. The annual yield of milk is from ten to fifteen per cent greater from cows fresh in fall than those which calve with the springing of the grass. Sober up on Jackson's Napa Soda.
