Cows HOLDING UP THEIR MTLK.-It
is well known that many cows when they
first come in, when their calves are taken
from them, will hold up their milk, some
times to such degree as almost dry them
selves before they will give it down.
"a few years ago." writes CORES
pondent of an English newspaper, II
bought young COW, which proved to be
very wild and when l took her first calf
she would not give down her milk. Ihad
heard it remarked that putting weight
on the cows back would make her give
her milk down. l accordingly drove her
into a stable, got bushel of grain and
put it on her back. While in this position,
she had no power to hold up her milk, for
it came down freely. After doing this
few times, and afterwards by putting my
hand on the back of the COW, it would
give way and she would Immediately give
DOWN her milk"
The rationale of this treatment appears
to be that the weight counteracts the
upward tendency Of the animals muscular
action.

twelve children, and when about seven

he might have the benefit of better edu-

of twenty-five was called to the bar, where
he gained for himself the reputation of an
