Selecting Cows.

"a Vcrmonter" gives the following
as his rules for selecting a cow:
"First, / get broadside view of the
animal, at the distance of about two
rods. as | have noticed for years, that
there was great similarity in the gen.
eral proportions of all first class milk
ers, being very small in girth just back
of their forward legs, as compared with
the girth just forward of their hips. l
have never known first rate mixer,
ofany breed, not thus proportional so
that IF this form is wanting in an ami
nal recommended to me, do not care
to look at her more, unless | want a
breeder for some other purpose than the
dairy. For breeding Oren, l should
want a COW of reverse proportions, /. e.,
larger girth forward.
next feel the size of the milk veins,
and trace them to their entrance into
the chest. which. in superior COWS are
large, admitting the ball of the larger
finger if divided, or subdivided, as is
sometimes the case, 1 judge of the size
of each orifice. as l care less of the vein
itself, than the orifice. Next l ex-
anime. by sight and touch. the udder, or
bag. which must be capacious in order
to hold much milk, with teats wide
apart and free from large seed-warts OF
sores of any kind; then inquire how
long she goes dry before calving, as |
don't want family COW to give milk
less than forty six weeks out of every
fifty-two; also as to the quantity OF
milk: and to close, l milk her with may
own hands"

Go to Sleep Early.


MANY children, instead Of being plump
MS peach, are as wrinkled as q last
wears apple, because they do not sleep
enough. Some physicians think the
bones grow only during sleep. This l
cannot say certainly, but l do know
that those little folks who sit up late at
nights are usually nervous. weak, small
and sickly. The reason why you need
more sleep than your parents is because
YOU have to grow and they do not
They can use up the food they eat in
thinking, talking and working, while
YOU should save some of yours for
growing. You ought to sleep great
deal; if you do not, you will in activity
consume all you eat, and have none, or
not enough to grow with. Very few
smart children excel, or even equal, 9TH
er people when they grow up. Why is
this? Because their heads, if not their
bodies, are kept too busy; so they can
not sleep, rest and grow strong in body
and brain. Now, when your mother
SAYS, Susie. or Nancy, or whatever your
name may be. it is time to 60 to bed,
do not worry her by beginning to sit up
"just q little longer" But hurry off to
your chamber, remembering that you
have great deal Of sleeping and grow
ing to do to make you healthy, hap
nv, useful man or woman.

Horse Feed.

For heavy work always feed corn to
horses. Where you wish them to be
sprightly and lively, feed them OH oats.
1t is not always safe to allow all horses
to "feel their oats" too much. The late
Sir Robert Peel, one Of the most emf
nent of English statesmen, lost his life
by riding a fractions horse, which his
groom had neglected to fill up with wa
ter before his master rode him, as he
had been ordered. Sir Robert was con-
sequently killed. A horse that has a
couple of buckets Of water in him just
before being driven or rode out is not
so wild or risky as one that is empty.
That much water is heavy. keeps him
quiet, and compels his good behavior.
