use of roughages in the dairy for production purposes, due to the
cow's ration. There is no room in
the ration of a good dairy cow for
filler feeds if she is to continue
to be a good producer. Any cow
must maintain her body and have
additional nutrients to produce
milk at a profit, and she can't do
both on low quality feed.

Ike Better Democrat Than
Adlai, Says Supporter
A bunch of us wt-re standing | that promise, and he promised to
around talking the other day. and ¡five us a government in Washing-
thc talk got around to politics like j ton that we could be proud of,
it usually does. Some of the boys ¡ because it was clean and honest
said they'd voted for Ike in '52 and efficient—and, in this man'
and Were going to do it a^ain;
some of them said they'd always
voted the Democratic ticket
straight and always expected to
—you know how it goes around a
little Texas town.
One fellow said something that
made the rest of us stop and
think. He said he was a Democrat,
sure—always had been, and his
father and grandfather before
him. And he always felt like he
had to vote for the best Democrat
in the race, which ho was going
to do tins year.
"And that mentis," ho said,
"that I'll hove to cast my vote for
Ike Eisenhower. He's a better
Democrat, by my definition of a
Democrat, than that other fel-
low ever will be."
And besides that, he said, Ike
kept his promises to Texas and
Texas ought to return the favor
by keeping Ike.
You know, he might have had
something there. "Gratitude" is
one of the greatest words in the
English language, and we all like
to think of ourselves as being
grateful when people do some-
thing for us. Like 1 heard a man
say one time: "Texans are people
who never forget anything that is
done TO them—or FOR them."
That's the way we think of our-
selves, and it's about right.
This Eisenhower man pointed
out that Ike promised to give the
Tidelands back to Texas, and he
kept that promise; lie promised to
do his best to close out Mr. Tru-
man's war in Korea, and he kept
opinion, he had kept that promise.
"I know you're reading and
hearing a lot of stuff to the con-
trary," he told us, "coming from
Hrother Stevenson and Brother
Kefauver and the rest of the poli-
ticians on the other aide. That's
politics for you. Everybody ex-
pects them to jump on Ike every
way they can, and I guess they'll
keep on doing it right, up to Nov.
0. liut the American people are
smarter than some politicians give
them credit for being, and before
they vote they're going to sit
down and ask themselves this
question:
"Remembering 19S2, when our
boys were dying in Korea and
the newspapers were full of talk
about mink coats and Communists
and corruption in Washington —
now, be honest about it: If you
could, would you go back to 1952
and start over with Adlai Stev-
enson instead of Dwight D. Eisen-
hower?"
This man said he wouldn't, and
come to think of it, I wouldn't
either. As a matter of fact. I
think Ike has made us one of the
best presidents we ever had, If we
had to go to war. I'd certainly
rather have him at the head of
our government than any other
living American. Hut even more
importantly—I'm convinced he is
the best man to keep up OUT of
war.
That's why I still like Ike—
better than ever!

excess work of the cow in digest
ing a feed with a high fiber con
tent.
When a dairyman must buy his
roughage, the best quality, is usu
ally most economical, because
there is less waste and he get.*
more milk for each pound of feed
fed.
The dairymen in the county who
have some good hay or silage can
stretch their supply by feeding a
third to a half food silage and fill-
ing in with roughage of lower
quality, but do not feed a rough-
age lower in quality than cotton-
seed hulls.
When cows are off green pas-
tures for two or more months Vit-
amin A deficiencies may occur
and by spreading roughage over
the longer period will help pre-
vent this trouble. Two pounds of
dehydrated alfalfa meal daily is
advised for all dairy cows not get-
ting a good green colored rough-
age.
If a good concentrate mix can
be had for a reasonable price the
dairymen might find it profitable
to replace part of his roughage
with such mix. but dairy cows sho-
uld have no less than ten to fif-
teen pounds of roughage daily, on
a dry basis, to remain in good
health.
