Rearing Calves.

Herdsmen and others who have had
some experience in raising young cattle.
have expressed various opinions in rela-
ton to the most proper course or mode
of treatment to be pursued, some con-
tending with good deal Of stringency
for the natural way as they term il ---i e.,
permitting them to enjoy the company Of
their dams till four, five, six or ten months
OF age, while others assert with equal
pertinacity. that the better way is to sepa-
rate them from the COWS when a few days
old, and raise them "bv hands The
farmer, Of course, will reflect upon the
relative advantages Of the two methods,
and consider the claims of each to pre-
ference before he adopts either. But af-
Ter all, whether the one or the other is the
most expensive, will depend wholly. or in
q great measure, upon the circumstances
Of time and place. In very many locali-
ties, the butter AID cheese a judicious
and economical dairyman would be able
TO realize from the milk, or from the milk
itself, without manufacturing it, would be
worth more in ready cash, while in others,
lit would scarcely defray in the market the
cost Of manufacturing while the calf
would be valuable. A friend who has
had much experience in dairying and
rearing calves, has directed attention 10
the following able article on. the subject in
the Gennessee Farmer. We present il
from that sheet as conveying most lucid
and readibly understandable synopsis OF
our own views Of what. in large majority
OF cases. would unquestionably be found
the most judicious and economical course,
for the farmer engaged in stock raising
for the market 10 pursue.
"The cost in both cases ought to be
taken into consideration. In the first in.
stance, the butter and cheese, which
might be made from the milk would a.
mount.to more in four months than the
value of the calf at that age. In, the
latter the proceeds Of the milk are nearly
attained independent of the raising Of the
calf. This can be established by un-
Questioned and unquestionable authority
Then there is very great balance in IA
1 vof Of the letter.
Il That the calf that runs with the COW
lfour months, will somewhat exceed in
j growth and proportion the one reared BY
hand, is readily granted. But after tha
| period, il il taken from the COW, and hal
