Curing Self-Milkers.
From the Canada Farmer.

TO break a sclfmilking COW of her
vice is no easy task, for every device
must necessarily leave her exposed to
the attacks Of flies, and if the use Of
the preventive be discontinued, she
soon realizes the fact and resumes
her habit. For that reason the appli-
cation OF hitter aloes to the teats is,
as well as being nasty, undesirable,
though it is, for the time that it is
applied, successful. Sitting the
tongue, which we have heard Of as
being practiced, is barbarous in the
extreme.
OF mechanical means, there is,
simplest of all, the tying of hard
wood stick, sharpened at each end,
across the horns. An inveterate self.
mixer will soon learn that the ends
of the sticks are pointed, and will
display great perseverance and ingen-
uity in turning her head down SO that
she can get at her milk without hurt
ing herself. An effective way is to
put circingle around her body and
attach straps thence to each Of her
horns. And the New York Tribune
gives another simple plan, which is
found to be effective. Take two old
ox-bows and fit each in Il piece Of
hard wood, say 2x3 inch stuff, IA
inches long, tying these single yoke
pieces on her neck, to stand about
foot apart. Then connect the hard
wood pieces by oak pieces like ladder
rungs and screw upon the bows, on
each side, slender pin of hickory,
pointed at the end, extending back
to rest upon her sides. The hard
wood pieces should be cut out, SO as
not to hurt the neck.

CURING Grass EARLY.-I have
been watching 4 grass field since last
July ll874), part Of which was cut
early with a mower and the rest left
three weeks later. The square block
Of two or three acres in the centre Of
the field, which was cut last, seemed
almost killed all the fall. The grass
was timothy, and very little aftermath
appeared, while the outside of the
field cut first was bright and green.
The same result appeared again this
spring, and | Judge the middle Of the
field will not yield a half ton Of hay
per acre, while the outside may 60 up
to ton and half. Add to this that
the early cut grass was hest for hay,
and it makes a strong case for early
cutting. 1t is equally important for
clover, and, indeed, unless clover is
very closely cut or pasturcd, the sec
ond season, so as to prevent its seed
ing, it is rarely worth keeping for
grass the third year. Cor. Country
Gentleman.

About Milking

Five per cent, and perhaps ten, can
be added to the amount of milk OBJ
tanned from the cows of this country,
if the following rules are inexorably
followed:
l. Never hurry cows, in driving to
and from the pasture.
2. Milk as nearly at equal intervals
as possible. Halfpast five in the
morning and six at night are good
hours.
3. Be especially tender Of the cow
at milking times.
4. When seated, draw the milk as
rapidly as possible, being certain al
ways to get it all.
5. Never talk or think of anything
beside what you are doing when
milking.
6. Offer some carcss and always a
soothing word when you approach a
COW and when you leave her. The
better she loves you, the more free
and complete will be her abandon as
you sit at her side.
We append the more common prac-
tice;
/. Let some boy turn the COWS
away and got him who is fond Of
throwing stones and switching the
hind ones every chance he gets.
2. Milk early in the morning and
late at night, dividing the day into
two portions, one Of fifteen hours and
the other nine.
8. Whack the COW over the back
with the stool, Or speak sharply to
her if does not 'sso'' or "hoist.'
4. Milk slowly and carelessly, and
stop at the first Stacking Of the fluid.
S. Talk and laugh, and perhaps
squirt milk at companion mixers,
when seated at the COW.
6. Keep the animal in tremble
all the time yoa are milking, and
when done, give her vigorous kick.
