The Cow in the Family

If you have means, and wish to live
pleasantly, get you an Attorney
cow. She will make the richest and
sweetest cream any butter, and, of
course, milk, of and. They are worth
having, these little, docile, quiet ami
mails, seeming more like members of
the family than anything else,
though apt to be mis-shapen, brindle
or spotted, and pale at that-thin
necks, like deer, ard heads the
same, but very gentle-different
from all other cows
Next tO.the Attorney for milk, and
giving more, but not so rich lis the
Ayrshire, a most noble breed for the
dairy and most excellent in the fam
lily. There is more pride to be
gratified in such a COW. She Is sleek
and round and most exceliently
formed, having all the points per-
feet. The Devons are rivals to the
Ayrshires, and will be an honor 20
any family.
Either of these will do, or even ANA
tive though these are the ugliest of
all cows-pitched rump, cramped
and disfigured and sometimes vic
ious, sometimes very docile, varying
much in all points of a good and bad
COW. You must run your risk with
native breed. But when you get a
good COW of whatever breed, then
abide by it. Get gentle one, and
she viii not be worried by dogs
she will not trouble you or the neigh
borS either. You will rest content
fer all Brindle Will do-for she is in
telligent and knows what you want,
and does it to please you and
mother that takes such good
care of her of .his other mother, as
the COW l.. You get an affection
for such cow, and that is a great
benefit. You will then treat her
well, and she will treat back In re-
turn. Such a COW, of course you will
not part with, for you could not dis
pense with even her company, to
say nothing Of tie immense amount
of milk, the real stuff and sinew of
the family, that she gives you. We
have experienced these things, and
we know how 10 appreciate = good
cow.-COr. R,u'0l World.

Boning Pastures

Every boy that has driven COWS to
old pastures has noticed in them 4
singular taste for chewing old bones.
Let piece of the size of a big potato
lie in the grass at the roadside, and a
COW will see it and turn aside for it
as quick as though it were ali ear of
corn Is this mere whim or fancy
in the dumb brute, like the fondness
of boys for chewing cherry gum, or
the taste school girls display for
chalk ? Not at all. Cows and oxen
chew bones as medicine. Nature
tells them that they need il, and
they cannot get it in the grazing
which old pastures afford. Nobody
sees such a taste in horses and sheep.
Let us consider the subject in the
light of one or two we'll settled facts.
The milk off COW for all the season
contains on an average y pounds of
phosphate of lime. That milk is con-
sumed in or near the house, or it is
carried hundreds of miles from the
farm in the form of cheese. Nobody
thinks of carrying the concentrated
manures of the hog pen to the cow
pasture hence. no part or constit-
uents of the milk ever gets back to
the pasture where the grass grew,
from which the milk was made. The
proper inference is easy. All old
pastures require amanure that con-
tains phosphate of lime. Suppose
mich COWS have been on a range of
pasture for sixty years at the rate of
a cow to five acres. Each acre had
been robbed of 12t pounds of phos-
plate of lime. The duty of the dairy
man, admits then, of no discussion.
He is requiring of his cows TO pro-
duce milk from grass that Is wanting
| in one of the most valuable constit-
uents of milk. He is as unjust as
old Pharaoh when he made the He
brews make brick, but gave them
no straw. Ground bones contain
| more of the substance that his COWS
and his pastures require than any
available manure. 1t should be sOwn
| on the pastures at the rate indicated
above. That is, ifa pasture has re-
ceived no bone for sixty years, and
| bankrupt as range for cows, it will
| require $50 pounds of phosphate per
| acre. Two hundred pounds of raw
| bone meal would be no more than a
| proper dressing land this dose should
be repeated every few years.-Er-
| chQn0e.

To make Soap Bubbles.

We find in an exchange para
graph which teaches the art of blow
ing soap bubbles that will show the
changing colors of the rainbow. The
directions are as follows: Takethree-
quarters of a pint of water that has
been boiled and become cold, and
put into it a quarter of an ounce of
CASTLE soap, cut up fine. Put this
into a pint bottle, and set il in hot

WATERING PLANTS IN SUMNER
1t is not wise to begin to water plants
in the garden, unless it is intended to
follow it UP thoroughly. If plants
in the open ground are watered, they
throw out their little roots near the
surface in order to drink in the mois-
ture, and if afterwards the watering
be neglected, these little fibrous roots
perish for lack of moisture, and the
plant suffers. When they are not
watered at all, the little roots go
down deeper III search of moisture,
and in we'll cultivated soil, in good
condition, they will usually find
enough to keep them from suffering,
unless the drouth continue unusually
long. If it seem necessary to give
water, 1t should be given copiously
in quantity, sufficient to go down to
the bottom of the roots g sprink king
that merely vets the surface is worse
than none. Swinging the leaves to
wash Off the dust, if done in the
evening after the sun is down, will
improve the appearance and health
