BLOODY CLOTHED MILK-GARGET.

a BLOODY CLOTHED MILK-GARGET.
NJ George Andrews, of East Bridgewater, inquiries
\ vh he shall do with a COW that gives bloody milk
apne times, and cotted milk at others She was
Nwo years old last spring; she calved in July and
B TOW gives gallon of milk per day, with good hay
< nd two quarts Of cob-meal daily. Her cream is not
a,y churned into butter; she will not SALT but APP
sr 70 be hearty and WELL The blood was first
4 discovered in the bottom of the pail, but now it is
rn 10 The stream from the teats.
EPlhc COW has the gnrgc,, and she should have
X TINE ,,rgei root with her food Cut hole in po-
q w, .lamip, or an apple. and insert bit of garget
Il maGgo as your fore finger, and half as long ::
81 @mwiIl then eat it. If You give her the root in
Rammer, she will eat il without an envelope.
hOue bN does not SUFFICE give her another; will
bot hnn her she ents dozen. We sometimes in
VT a BIT of the ROOT into the dewup, when the cow
smach affected, and it will swelling there
fora day or two, as large quart bottle.
AhIe suItpetre in her meal will be good FOR her
3 Nod Cows should often have access to garget
pS the summer season. In winter they are sell
4 tav@bed with the complaint. The hest cows
N wnn often afflicted with it than the mcanest.
GaraScn why the blood was first seen at the
haom of the pail is, there but little, and blood
4 aag heavier than milk, sinks below it. Sometimes
avs will give bloody milk when they are not gar
ey; but clOtled milk s n Indication Of this NAL
dy
1.-THE COW was farther from the sen, she would
want st.
Iii no easy to tell why the cream from sums
nWs Z lonr h,t tIon thar
why cream at this Of the year, is so unwil
Ing 10 change. Perhaps il does not ferment suffici-
entity in cold weather. If you let it stand for whole
Day near the fre,it will come to butter much quicker
Oh chnnng, than if you simply give it the proper
NeI. Does not this prove that it needs fermentng7
