Don't Let the Cows Go Dry.

A long even season of milk is abso-
lutely necessary to be profitable one.
There is nothing that the dairyman
needs more exhortation upon than that
of giving full ration to his herd at all
times during the milking season.
Every season brings variations in the
supply of food, which should be antici-
pated and provided for in advance. But
the present season is extreme in its
drouth, and we have elsewhere pre-
sented suggestions as to the proper
course to pursue. In this paragraph
we wish to show how disastrously the
want of TODD will operate upon the flu
ture profits of herd. Neglect to sup
ply the deficiency caused by the drouth
will cause the COWS prematurely to go
in condition; and thus not only lose the
dairyman the full use of his herd when
butter and cheese, being reduced in
quantity, will be high in price. but his
herd, being shortened in their milking
season, will be liable to go dry earlier
in future years, and their condition be-
ing so low, will have disastrous effect
upon their next seasons yield. These
losses will more than doubly balance
the cost of feeding them well now. The
cow is most prompt paymaster for all
she exacts as food. Let us see
the inducements she offers her own.
er to feed her well, in drouth or
plenty. Her milk becomes rich
in October, and much less milk
will make pound of butter OF cheese
than in June or July. A very moder-
ate COW, respectfully fed in October,
will make three and a-half pounds OF
butter per week, which, at thirty cents
Ga low price this Year, will give ST. 05
per week, as to value of her butter, and
the skin-milk will be worth twenty five
cents more, or $3.50 per week. Now,
this will easily be produced by adding
to what she must have to keep her alive
six pounds of corn and oat meal, or
corn and middlings per day, which will
seldom cost more than sixty cents, or
less than half what she produces in
money value. If the dairyman will
feed her what she pays for every night,
she will produce a good yield of milk,
and keep herself in good condition, so
as to be profitable another seaso n.
There is less excuse for feeding a
good mich cow stingily than any other
farm animal. She does not ask any
credit; she makes prompt daily pay
ment; and her product is cash article.
If he has not the food at hand, pru-
dence and good judgment, as well as
humanity, requires him to furnish her
full rations at all times, without regard
to favorable or an unfavorable season.
We always counsel dairymen to make
an earnest effort to produce all the food
for their herds upon their own farms,
but the first principle of profitable
dairying requires that they give album
dant food to keep up an even flow of
milk, whether they produce or purchase
the food. National LiUe Stock Journal.

Winter Effects of the Drought.

1t is often thought that we are learn.
ing from year to year; but the conduct
or of newspaper, beyond most 9th.
ers, knows how slowly the world prof.
its by the labors of discoveries. From
time to time, however, we can refer tc
new matters in season, as the knowl.
edge can be made available, and in this
way the newspaper can be made
teacher as well.
Among the knowledge gained in re.
cent years is the truth that the effects
of a drought on vegetation is not al.
ways Immediately apparent. Trees,
which seem to get through the sum.
mer struggle remarkably well, will otter
live several years afterwards and vel
die. The reason of this, Invested of al;
technical language, is, that though moi
killed, the vital condition is lowered.
and thus a degree of cold, or any unfa,
vorable circumstances, which under
ordinary conditions the plant woulc
easily resist, is too much for it, and the
tree dies. T.ID n "a. t1r w
We have had this season one of the
most trying times in Che drought line
ever experienced. Hence we may make
use of this knowledge wherever we have
particularly valuable trees thatit iswortt
while taking a little trouble to pre-.
serve. What is called life or the vita
principle in plants, is simply food
changed into that character, and thus
by giving food we strengthen life.
Therefore, there is no better way tc
help half-dried tree to get through
the winter than by gi0tn9 10 manure.
Spread thin around such trees as soon
as may be after reading this. 1t may
be seen that as there. will be nomore
leaf-growth or growth of branches this
season, there will be no, use putting on
manure now. But this is not what ex-
perience teaches. 1t is found that the
roots are strengthened; the whole vital
power increased by the top-dressing,
around weak trees in the fall as we
recommended; and as great old farm.
writer once said, "a grain of practice is
worth whole ton of theory" Ever
green hedges especially will be founG
benefited by top-dressing of manure

THE DAIRY.

Prof. X. A. Willard, an author
ity on dairy matters, estimates the num-
Der of creameries and cooperative fac
tories in the United States at five thou
sand. And they are only just begin
ming.
With population of but %, 900, 600
England annually consumes 500, O00, 900
pounds of cheese, while the United
States, with a population of 80, 900, 900
consumes only 275,000, 900 pounds OF
cheese annually.
The period of milking may be
classed in three parts. For the first six
Or seven weeks after calving the largest
quantity of milk is produced. After
this the yield falls off pretty considera-
oily, but then remains at about the same
figure for two or three months, when q
steady decline sets in until the COW is
perfectly dry. By careful feeding the
best part of the milking periods may be
prolonged, and this ought to be the aim
Of all milk producers. If green fodder
and other food which stimulates milk
secretions can be used at the right time,
\ considerable extra quantity of milk
may be produced. During the milking
periods the proportion OF the caseine
increases. and that of butter decrease.
Milk produced by COWS soon after calv-
ing contains, therefore, more butter and
less caseine than later, and the differ
ence is great enough to make itself felt
in the larger diaries, if the COWS calve
about the same part of the year.
"A common disease in cattle is
known as apthous fever. 1t affects the
feet and the mouth and sometimes the
feet alone, when it is known as foot-rot
OF g hoof-ail." The coronet and the
skin between the claws become bis
tered; the blister sbreak and run togeth-
er and form ulcers, and the hoofs some
times separate from the feet and fall off.
1t is caused by disease of the blood,
and should be treated by antiseptic med
icines and dressings. Give first dose
or two of a pound each of EPSON salts;
then follow with daily doses of hypo-
sulphite of soda; dress the feet with
carbolic soap and water, and then apply
solutio of dram of sulphite of zinc
in quart of water and wrap them in
bandages. Remove these daily and
wash with the carbolic soap or solu-
ton of dram of carbolic acid in pint
of water. Keep the COWS in a clean
yard or stable, where there is nothing
to irritate the diseased feet.-N 7.
