A Cows Life

The average actual life OF cow Is
eight years. The possible productive
life of a COW is twenty years. The
writer's best COW is the thirteenth cali
of her dam. An Ayrshire cow once
gave in the writer's presence thirty
seven quarts of milk in one. day with
her thirteenth calf, and at the time she
was too old for her age to be indicated
by her horns. A Jersey COW dropped
her best calf, now cow, when she was
nineteen years old. and the Centennial
prize Jersey COW Niobe was a very old
cow then. Now, what loss there is in
wearing out cows at eight years old. A
cow properly cared for is then at her
prime, and may compare with man of
forty years in that respect. At such an
age man has twenty years of vigorous,
useful life at least before him, and hX
outstanding his powers, ten years more
may be added. A COW may just as well
add six years more to her eight, and will
beyond doubt if she is well used, and
still yield a better profit to her owner
than four-year-old COW. Thus the
productive life of COW may be actually
doubled by good care and usage. But
how is this heightened period of useful
ness to be gained? In the first place,
longevity is hereditary characteristic,
and careful selection and breeding are
required to secure it. Then constitu-
tional vigor favors ii. This is secured
through breeding and early training.
The sound. healthy calf must be well
cared for. well fed, and when she be-
comes cow the training and care must
be continued and the cows vital forces
well nourished and husbanded. Ex-
posures and irregular feeding, not to
mention actual semi-starvation during
the winter seasons, which is far too
common. tend greatly to shorten tie
useful and productive lie Of cow. 1t
pays better to preserve good COW than
to rear second one; and if one lives
sixteen years and has thirteen product
i've years, she will have been worth
more to her owner at the end than three
cows at eight years old have been. For
there will be ten fully productive years
in the old cows life, against ten par
tally productive years IN that of the
young one's.-N. y. Times.

Henry Stewart says that when a
dairyman intends to permanently past
ure his cows, he can recommend the
common quack grass as a splendid
early pasture, orchard grass next, then
red-top and blue grass, with white
clover mixed in, and red clover or lu-
cerne to help out deficiencies. He con-
siders these the most productive milk
materials.
Butter that has been washed in pure
cold water until the buttermilk is all
extracted will not require the excessive
working so often necessary to take out
the buttermilk when notwashed. But
ter thus washed will be less liable to
have the oily look which it gets often by
too much WORKING eSneciallV if done
with the hand. 1t will require less salt
to keep it and have the fine waXen APP
pearance that forms so great a part of
the attractiveness of the "gilt-edge"
butter Great care should be taken to
have the water pure and of tempera-
ture not exceeding s Q, about the tenn
perature of cold well-water, and it will
be still better if little ice is used, and
the temperature lowered to 400.
Cows in milk drink from twenty
seven to fifty quarts of water day and
farmers should bear this fact in mind
these hot days and see that the cows
have full supply, for without it no
| good result can reasonably be expected
from the milk yield. 1t must also be
remembered that cows are q lazy set
and they will suffer much for the want
of water on hot day before they will
walk far to get it. 1t is, therefore, a
good idea to pasture them in lots far
from good water only on cool days,
when they will have no serious objec-
ton to taking long walks. This is one
of the points that dairyman should
