HOW TO MILK.

The faster and more gentle a COW is milk
ed the greater will be the amount given.
Slow mixers always gradually dry np a
COW, and Tor the reason that if the milk he
not drawn about as fast as it is given down
It will subsequently, be withheld, and that
Withheld is, as matter of course, what is
known as the strippings, in fact, the upper
surface of milk in the udder, Many mixers
draw the milk with a strong downward pull
lin tact, with jerk. This should never
be allowed; it irritates the cow, and often
INJURIES the bag. Fill the teat and with a
firm pressure OF the last three fingers empty
1t, drawing slightly on the teat and udder
at the same time; so proceed alternately
with each hand until the milk supply is ex
hausted. Many mixers get the habit OF
slow milking because steady, firm, quick
milking tires the fingers and wrists, until
by practice the muscles get used to the
work. Until this use comes naturally the
individual shoald only milk such number
Rocky Mountain husbandman., 1879-10-09

as they can without severe cramping OF the
hands, what are milked should be MIXED
fast, increasing the number until at last
there is no tiring whatever. Five minutes
is about the limit that should be allowed
for milking cow. There is another thing
well worthy of being remembered. Cows
should be MIXED as nearly at given hour,
morning and evening as possible, since un-
due distension of the udder is always injuri-
ous.-Indiana Farmer.
Rocky Mountain husbandman., 1879-10-09

THE cream from the milk when the COWS
were fed on peck of buclwheat bran each
was light colored and thin; but when they
are fed four quarts of corn meal, the cream
is thicker and more yellow. This means
more butter. Bran OF all sorts is better for
young animals, as it makes muscle; but
meal is best for COWS as 1t makes fat: and
milk is fat; that is milk which will make
good butter contains a large per cent. of
fat.

ployed. Every avenue of trade and COM

precating in all branches of busines, and
with this condition Of things it would be
strange indeed if the price of beef should
prove an exception to the general tendency

The DAIRY
sHORT.HORNs AS MIXERS

sH0RT.HORNS AS MIXERS.
On page 5oo OF your paper. August 2Sth
In the article, DAIRY Farming in ST. Law
rence,'' by A. c., Jr., he gives the opinion
of Mr.. George B. Wlnslow, as follows: "ro
breed Jerseys for beef, Ayrshres tor butter
or Short-horns for milk, he considers abou!
as sensible as to breed a Rarus from Clyde
or Parole from Hambletonian.''
Now, would like TO ask either of these
gentlemen what they know of Short-horns
as milkers-aLything or nothing, more than
common runor OF others, who are utterly
Ignorant of the Short-horns, their history.
or OF the testimony Of those who have long
bred and used them as dairy COWS, both in
America and England. ALI history tells us
that the early Short-horns in England were
among the best Of dairy cows, and so were
those of the early importatons into this
country forty or fifty years ago, and so do
the descendants of those importations con.
tlnue down to the present day in the hands
OF men who choose to perpetuate in them
their high milking qualities.
Let one thing be, properly understood
The Short-horns, from their superior flesh
making faculty, have become the prevailing
and popular stock in the Western States for
beef purposes. The breeders and grazers
in those states are not dairymen, and care
little for the milk produce of their cows far
ther than yielding enough to feed their
calves to five or six months old. In conse-
quence of such small demand on the milk of
their COWS, they are early dried off and
again put to breeding. OF course the COWS.
and their female progeny after them, cease
TO be large mixers; the milking quality is
thus bred out of them, as may be done with |
any breed fdairy cows, even the most cele-
brated, under like treatment and still. by
proper care in breeding, their milking fac
ultles may be restored if their descendants.
as numerous instances, if related, would |
testify.

years, and have probably had as much in

breeders, and observation among the cattle

The grain and -four dealers of
Liverpool and New York are making
vigorous efforts to introduce the
rental system in estimating the
seight of all breadstuffs. 1t is re-
commended that barrel of -four

of -four, leaving Is pounds for tare;
and also, that when -four, oatmeal,
etc, is packed in sacks, they shall
weigh, exclusive of tare, aliquot
parts of q GENITAL. The Portland
Board of Trade has received CON-
munication on this subject from the
New York Exchange, and the sub
ject is now under consideration.
This is only another step towards an
adoption of the metrical system.
Since our decimal system of curren-
cy is easily applicable to the GENITAL
system above mentioned, world OF
labor and perplexity would be saved
ii the suggestion of our English
neighbors were adopted.

OREGON papers are advising old
settlers to look about and see that
their liabilities are perfect. In view
of the fact that the Department at
Washington has ordered thorough
examination of all the land entries
since the settlement Of the State, it
is urged that in all cases of neglect
or delay on the part of settlers,
patents should be properly applied
for forthwith. The old pioneers are
fast passing away; railroad subsidies
are coming in to augment the I'M
settled condition of many claims;
the new generation to which many
lands should naturally descend will
know little or nothing of the mud
died land affairs OF their parents and
will not be legally qualified to "prove
up" their titles to the old home
steads. A recent issue of the .Asto-
rian devotes nearly a column to this
subject. If the above points be well
taken, the early settlers in this Ter
ritory may we'll profit by the advice
given.

Tia, PEACE PoI1cY.-Mr. M. v.

The PEACE POLICY. M. V.
Harper, an old md reliable citizen
of Goldendale, under date of the I'd
inst, writes as follows: GA muir
mer from the people of Klickitat or
Yakima counties would pass as the
idle winds, yet we have rights
which we hope will not be entirely
overlooked. If it is the purpose OF
the Government to place the rene
gades of the different tribes of In
dions on the Yakima Reservation,
we demand as right that an ade-
quate military force be placed in
such position as to keep perfect con-
troll of them. 1t is not enough that
q force sufficient to whip them
in case of an outbreak be main
tanned. We want them kept in per-
feet subsection. I do not want to
be the one that is butchered to give
the authorities warning that there is
another Indian war. neither do l
want my family murdered for any
such purpose, and I suppose other
peoples lives are as dear to them as
mine is to me. There seems to be
no doubt but that the upper end OF
this county will be the scene OF
many thefts next Summer, in the at
tempt of these same Indians to gel
borses to make their way back tc
their old hunting-grounds. Some
of them were recognized by 10 Yer
dain, of this place, as Indians be-
longing in this county, among which
Pistol-head, o sub-chief belonging
near the mouth of Aldercreek, wa:
pointed out, which goes to show
that we have murderers and thieves
among us, making it necessary tt
exercise external vigilance" les

and families murdered.

, FROM late accounts in Montreal
papers, there would seem to be a
good opening in that city for Mr..
Bergh, to found Society for Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals.
Somebody has gained access to the
real inwardness of the Society of
Carmelites located in one of the SUI
burbs of that place, and gives chill
ling account of the absteminous regu-
lations imposed upon the poor nuns
by the Lady Superior. The girls
wear but one principal garment, q
dress made of serge and extending to
the ankles. They are shod with san
dals only, and use no hosiery;
though in the coolest weather, they
are generously permitted to wrap
wooden cloths around their umbed
and perishing limbs. Their head
gear is analogous to that of most
sisters" consisting of a black hood
hiding almost the entire face. They
subsist upon one meal day, made
up principally of few boiled vege-
tables, and sleep on an uncovered
board, with block of wood for q
pillow. Several of the girls have
died, from the effects of the rigorous
life they are compelled to lead; and
yet the Lady Superior says it is "al]
in the hands of God" These facts
have but recently leaked out, and
have caused no little indignation
among the better sort of people in
Montreal.

The late favorable developments
Relative. to the case of Mr.. S. W.
Hall, brings to mind the suggestion
we made in an issue of the daily at
the time of his arrest. We simply
advised that public opinion be held
in allegiance until rumors were JUS
tilted by facts. We know "there is
many q slip between the cup and
the lip" and it may be so in the re-
ported vindication and discharge of
Mr.. Hall. Should it not prove so,
however, in the present instance,
and that gentleman comes back to
Olympia to resume the social posi-
ton which he has maintained among
our people for the last eight years,
those of our citizens who acted on
the principle in common law which
supposes man to be innocent until
he is proven guilty, will enjoy the
mutual greeting OF old friends;
while those who blatantly cried
"Crucify him" will much rather see
him pass by on tho other side of the
street.

RENovATioNs AND CHANGEs.-It APP
pears that the new building near the
southeast corner of Fourth and
Main Streets is to be the future
Postoffice, but why the matter
should be kept profound secret we
cannot understand, unless the sub
iect of location is one ON which the
new Postmaster has some doubts
of expediency. The Postofice is
one of the public conveniences that
should he located as near as possible
to the business center. The corner
building, undergoing renovation, is
to be converted to its original use,
and become a drug store. The
Evans building, on the northwest
corner of Main and Fifth Streets is
to be the telegraph and express of.
fee, and the fence in front has been
removed and the sidewalk extended
back to the house. The same OBJ.
lection that applies to the site of the
Post-office is true in this instance
A more unsuitable building, both
es regards location and adaptation
could not have been selected or
Main Street, and we doubt not thai
the express business will continue t.
suffer, as it has in the past, from
this penny-wise policy of the com
panY.
