n liking The Milk OfDilfercnt
Breeds.

A few years ago there was publish
ell statement ofsome experiments in
mixing the milk of different COWS,
made at one Of the agriculture stations
in Pennsylvania, in which the result
gave quite as good showing when
mixed as when set separately. In
recent issue of The american CuAira-
tor some statements are made which
show marked loss by mixing milk of
mixing tho milk of Shorthorn, and
Jerseys. Whether the milk Of differ.
ent cows, or breeds Of COWS, may be
mixed without loss, depends somewhat
on attendant circumstances. The chief
difference in the milk Of different
breeds consists, 80 far as getting the
butter is concerned, principally in the
size of the milk globules. In the milk
Of every COW there is always consider.
able difference in the size Of the glob-
ules, some being quite large and some
inhnitesimally small, so that in all
practical operations we have the large
and small gtobules to deal with in the
Catoctin clarion. [volume] (Mechanicstown, Md.) 1871-1940, 1880-02-19

churning, whether the milk has come
from only one COW or many. If part
of herd of COWS give milk with small
globules and part Of them average
large, the situation ls not necessarily
very much changed from what is all
the time occurring in every herd. The
average size may be higher or lower
by mixing, but the objection to ming
ling large and small globules is always
present, whether we Ink milk or not.
Dairymen who are we'll informed
in their art overcome this objection
by skill in churning, 1t is now we'll
known that if cream with large and
small globules mixed is churned by
string or by any process which de-
>pends on friction upon the cream, the
larger globules come to butter first,
and when enough Of them to form a
lump have come they gather into a
mass, and leave the smaller ones in
the buttermilll unchurned. This but
ter being removed, the buttermllk
NAV be churned again and the re-
mainder obtained. With churns oper.
ating by friction second and even a
third churning are sometimes requlr-
ed to get all the butter, because the
larger globules feel the effects of frc-
ton more effectua!ly than smaller
ones. Churns which operate by re.
peated shocks Of strong conclusion af.
feet large and small globules at the
same time and alike, SO that the but
ter all comes at oncs. Great ineQual-
tiles in the cream, occasloned by
health and he time which cows have
been giving milk, added to the size Of
globu les as effected by breed, may not
always be overcome in this way, but
the cases are rare which cannot be
overcome by skllful churnlng.- Pro-
fessor L. B. Arnold.

timber is generally conceded but there
is, we are glad to believe, less oft now
than there was ten or twenty years
ago. 10 preserve the timber lands
remaining, should be the farmers
earnest care. Fencing them up is not
only proper on account Of the timber
itself, but by SO doing the farmer Sc
cures nice lot of additional pasture
and gets rid OF the annoying visits Of
cattle roaming at large. Open spaces
in timber lands should be set with
young locust trees. If the soil is at
all adapted to them, they will grow
rapidly, and because of their extraor-
binary durability as fence posts, may
be classed among the most valuable Of
our timber trees. If the soil is very
rich, they grow ahead of the rayages

trees blight badly. We have also a
goodly number Of trees standing in sod
that has not been pIowed within the
memory Of anyone living. The grass
is cut with the lawn movers and lies
where cut. No one has ever seen
blight on these trees. The trees in
the vegetable ground grow more Wig
orously, but the rank growth produced
by the manure suddenly checked by
the swapping Of the roots, and blight
frequently takes place within few
hours after thorough cultivation. |
