Testing Milk..Use Of Lactometer. etc.

Mn EDITOR Under the above head
there is i'm article in the Ohio Farmer of
August 4th, 1877, written by l.. S. Hardin,
Esq He aflirms (and do not doubt his
sincerity that the sole object he has kept
steadily in view in writing upon dairy sub
jects has been the improvement of the
material interests of the dairy farmer. In
order to accomplish this he has considered
it proper to attack pet prejudices, has hurt
feelings, etc. He says II would not
care if | made every man angry who
reads my articles, if could only thereby
get him to experiment, if for no other pur
pose than TO prove me humbug." But
in the present article he is rather more
generous than the necessities of the case
demand for that purpose"
In evidence of this we quote his own
language, viz: | do not think that the
richness or poverty of the cows food will
make any perGeptiblc difference in the
yield of milk. 1t seems 10 be provision
of nature for the protection Of the young
that while different food may alter the
taste of milk, which is matter of no
consequence to the calf, yet no change
of food, us from rich to poor or nice versa,
can alter the richness or quality of the
milk. For if it could, the calls health
would be in constant jeopardy. | know
it is very common idea that COW will
give richer milk when fed on corn meal
than she will when fed on hay Or straw"
But he attaches great Importance to the
use of the percentage glass in the light
Of modern research"
Now we have never noticed m Article
that demonstrates so clearly the truth of
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1877-08-22

We have learned to jest at gapes by
making free use of camphor. We give to
a chicken in II very bad case pill the size
of a small garden pea. As soon as we see
symptoms of gapes we give the birds wa.
ter to drink which is strongly impregnated
with camphor, thus giving to the chicks
that which was fayorie medicine with
our great grandmother, camphor iulep,"
The treatment seems to explain itself. The
gapes or gaping" is caused by the pres
ence of small red worms in the windpipe.
No medicine can reach them unless it does
so by vapor. An hour after the chicken
has swallowed the pill it smells of cam
phor. Camphor is a very strong vermi-
fuge, and the worms die.-LOndon Cottage

ARE COMPARISONS oDIoUs?

Editor of The american CuHiUat0r 1t
has been said that comparisons are odlous
and invidious," but must confess TO being
exceedingly interested in the comparison,
by your correspondent, A. l.. Murdoch,
between the relative efficiency and expense
of the Vermont and Massachusetts Boards
of Agriculture. Aside from the question
of details, it appears that Vermont is do
ing far more practical and effective work,
and at one-twelfth the cost Of that perform
ed by the Massachusetts Board and its Sec
rotary. Such com parisons, however odious
to one state, are exceedingly noteworthy
and creditable to the other, in view Of the
direct interest we Massachusetts farmers
have in the outlay of money drawn from n
treasury replenished mainly by taxation
on farms and farmers, as well us property
of other classes.
What has Massachusetts TO show for its
outlay, us your correspondent states, of
"$50000 "p 1t would seem that the 300
paid out annually for mere clerical work
is paying very dear for the whistle. Ii
could not have taken the Secretary of the
Board of Agriculture of Massachusetts one
day out of the 365 of the year 1876 to have
written all that he can claim as his own
composition in the last volume of the Jag.
riculture of Massachusetts; !" and the same
that is true of the twenty-fourth annual
report is true also of all his reports except
three, including the first two and the one
that contained description of the Secreta-
rvs visit to Europe.
| lately heardan ex-member of the Board
say, after having resigned, that the Secre.
tary of the Board had not time to write an
annual report on the agriculture of Mas.
sachusetts, as his time is largely occupied
in outside services for other parties, and
literally paid for. The Massachusetts
Board should have acted as promptly and
wisely as did another State Board
when their Secretary undertook to edit
an agricultural paper; they informed
him forthwith that be could be editor of
the paper, or he could hold the Office of
Secretary of the Board, but that he could
not hold both offices, and he forthwith sew
cred his connection with the paper His

VARIABLE OPINIONS ABOUT Roors ANr
SHEEP. roots and sheen are spoken
of, written of, and thought of. in a very
extraordinarily different way bv different
men, and it is really surprising there
should be such Il puzzling diversity Of
opinion in reference to them. In England
where both are grown and attended to, 10
the utmost extent, there is but one opinion
among all classes, which is. that it is an
absolute impossibility on succeed to any
large farm containing a GOOD proportion
of arabic land, without extensive root
culture accompanied with good sheep
husbandry. The chief varieties of roots
grown there are swedes and turnips, with
Il few acres of mangels, carrots, or cab
bage-or some of the three last-to be
hauled to the homestead for milch COWS.
etc. Comparatively few of the latter are
grown, however, because they require
more manure and labor in cultivating, as
greater care in keeping them, than the
swedish and common turnips.
Some of the various opinions entertain
ed here with reference to the advantages
of these crops, are contrary to all the ex.
perience of older countries, especially to
that of England and the cold northern
climate of Scotland. Nearly ALL miscon-
ceptions of the merits of root crops, how
ever, arise from ignorance of the best way
of using them. The roots are all good
and very healthy for animals depending
on dry fodder, but horse in regular work
