AGRICULTURE,

MILKING QUALITI Es.-A copious flow OF
milk. sustained through many months, is
quality which has been produced by art in
aomesticatlon. Wild cattle rarely provide
more than enough milk to rear their own
calves, and the flow of 1t is OF compara-
lively short DURATION, Small in volume,
the milk is rich in quality; but the lacteal
organs soon dry off again. This, OF course,
is IN harmony with the requirements oil
the young animals in wild state, ana Is
correlation of the rowing life and the hap
hazard feeding of the dams. More milk
than the calf eIuires under such condl-
tions would be waste OF material energy
which nature does not encourage. lt would
moreover, be an eccumbrance to the
mother. Wild cattle are, neither good
mixers, nor good fatteners, and In parts
of England where calves are allowed to ran
with their domesticated dams generation
after generation, the breed of such animals
are not famous for mllk-giving. Like that
of the mare and eve, the milk Is smaller
In quantity, rich in quality, and of short
duration. The desultory and irregular
sucking of the calf or foal or lamb Is not
conducive to the development of large
flow of milk, and it distinctly tends TO
shorten the flow. Rsnd-mllking OF SIM
liar character has the same effect, Young
people are allowed to learn to how to milk
ON cows which are going dry for calvlng,
not on those which are still in full tiow.
New beginners soon dry up cows milk,
and bad mixers do the same.
Heavy milking properties, then, are ar
tihcial, in the sense that they have been
developed under domestlcation, and, by
careful breeding, for given end; yet, like
many other qualities, which are little more
than mere germs ia nature, they become
heredity by long usage. Few sorts OF ami
mails, if any, are more susceptible than
cattle of being moulded into what we
want, no physical quality Is 50 easily train
ed and developed as that OF giving milk.
Ii Is function, which, constantly varying
of itself, can be dwarfed or extended at
viii. BY means of intelligent training,
kind treatment, and intelligent breeding,it
can be developed and made hereditary; an
opposite system keeps il in state of Ia
lure. Tne nature OF COW and the food
she receives have great deal TO do with
her milking powers; quick and silent hand
milking cows has all along rendered great
ly TO the development of the lacteal glands
and this development has l'ecome heredl-
tary IN our best milking breeds. The ewes
of the Larzse breed of sheep, from whose
milk the famous RoquetOrt cheese is made
in France, have been hand-milked tor gen.
eralions, so that their milking prop rites
are how considerable and inherited. BY
repeatedly exciting the teats it is even pos
slule TO cause an animal that has never
borne offspring 10 yleld a small quantity
OF milk, and COW sometimes remains
barren several years after having had q
calf, giving pre- ttable quantity OF mlk
all the while.

How is IT WITH YOUR BUTTRR. fas
tiu4vus persons butter can be spoiled before
the milk leaves the stable; it caE be spoil
ed by the filthy or unhealthy condition OF
a cow, by careless mixer, by dirty pals
OF pans, and in numberless ways. To avoid
all this every process should be under the
management of one intelligent and cleanly
person. To begin at the beginning, all OF
the COWS should be good, healthy animals
and rlch mixers. A single scalawsg will
deterlorate the gilt-edge quality OF the but
ter and detract from the profits. Then
their feed should be suitable IN quality
aed quantity; the water absolutely fresh
and pure, stabllng clean and comfortable,
free from foul odors. The milking must
be looked after closely 10 insure It's being
done in cleanly manner with clean hands.
