Scalding Milk.

Scalding milk is prolific source of
white specks. 1t is cooked caseine, not
specks of sour curd. In scalding milk
above the natural animal heat, we re-
verse the conditions of gravity, and the
caseine becomes the lightest element
and rises to the top in the form of a
wrinkly, leathery scum. When the milk
cools and the fats have the ascendancy,
they are obliged to absorb the film of
cooked caseine, and when this cream is
churned there is not enough fluid matter
in the form of water to dissolve this
caseine; it remains to reappear in the
butter, the largest particles being visi-
BILE to the naked eye, the finer portions
visible to microscope. If milk must
be scalded, stir it continuously during
the operation, so that no separation Of
the elements takes place. Why scald
milk any wayp No cream can rise
while the temperature is going up in the
milk, and scalding it is cooking opera
ton at best, and quite as good result
is obtained by cooling it down to
forty-6ve degrees as speedily as pos
sible. This avoids expelling the deli
cate aroma by undue heat, and prevents
raising the. gravity of the GASEOUS
matter and the danger of its reappear-
ing in specks.-COr. Ohio Farmer.

BONE FERTILIZERS.
The Need and Value of Their Application
to Dairy Pastures.

The Need and Value of Their Application
to Dairy Pastures.
If the pasture has been used for cows
for many years, it is probable that it most
needs an application of bone manure
to supply the large amount of bone ma
terial which has been yearly removed
in the milk. Pastures used for cows
giving milk are exhausted of bone ma
terial more rapidly than those ased for
other cattle. For fattening or growing
cattle, bone material is only required for
growth, while for COWS large quantities
of it are secreted in the milk, and the
removal of this material from the soil
is rapid. DR.. j. B. Lawes, of England,
relates an instance where the application
of bone fertilizers produced decided i'm
provement in a COW pasture. He says:
"A great many years ago very re-
markable improvement of some pasture
land in one of the northern counties was
obtained by the application of large
dressing of bones. The land has always
been employed in the production of
cheese, for which this county was cele-
brated. This success induced others to
use bones, and people where land had
been impoverished by the continued sale
of hay could not understand why the
bones in their case produced no effect,
not distinguishing the difference in the
character of the exhaustion of the soil,
due to the sale of cheese, as compared
with that which took place by the con-
slant removal of hay" The extent to
which the soil is exhausted of phos-
phoric acid by herd of dairy cows rem
ders it easily understood why it is inn
portant to apply bone fertilizers to re-
store fertility and productiveness to
such land. In regard to the amount of
of bone material removed by cows in
milk, DIR. j. r. Nichols says: "A COW
in milk requires about eighty pounds of
bone material a year; and consequently
a herd of twenty-five cows will carry off
from our pastures and the barn ton of
bone materials each year. 1t is appar-
ent that this process of exhaustion can
not continue for very long period with
out rendering our fields sterile. We
must return to them ike bone materials
they have lost. We must, in other
words, feed our hungry plants upon the
soluble phosphate of lime, and thus
give to them renewed vigor; and they,
in turn, will yield the same back to our
animals, and from them our own bodies
will be nourished. 1t is evident that
in cases where pastures have been fed
by mich COWS for fifty OF one hundred
years or longer, with no return of fer
tilizers except the droppings of the ami
mails, the land must be pretty well ex-
hausted of the bone materials which are
removed to such an extent in the milk
produced. Top-dressing such pastures
with bone flour or superphosphate is
clearly indicated. The application of
other fertilizers may also be required to
supply other lacking elements of fer
tility.-Boston Globe,
The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1884-12-06
Assimilation Of Food.

Every farmer who has kept cows in a
stable and fed them measured OF
weighed rations, must have observed
that all did not thrive equally well on
the same amount OF food, even if they
varied but little in size or in the quantity
of milk yielded. In fact, smaller
animal often requires more food than a
larger one to keep it in good condition.
The same difference is also frequently
observed in two horses driven and
worked together daily, one having to be
fed little extra food in order to keep
it in as good condition as its mate.
Some recent experiments that have been
made with cows in Europe show that
there is great variation in the power
of appropriating food, and that the
stomach of one COW will extract more
nutriment from food eaten than another
In test case, both COWS weighing the
same, and fed on an equal quantity OF
cut green grass, one COW took up and
retained half pound more Of solid food
daily than the other IN r 6stM.
