Shoulder Lameness.

Shoulder lameness of horses is not OF
nearly SO frequent occurrence as is gen.
eraly imagined: but sometimes the
difficulty in ascertaining the real seat
of lameness, when situated in the foot,
has occasioned many an ignorant smith
to refer the complaint TO the shoulder
and the poor animal has in consequence
been doomed to UNDERGO the painful
operations of blistering, firing and row.
cling. 1t is of cons ,derable importance,
tn, refore, to be able to distinguish
sprains of the shoulders ON other all
ments Mistakes will seldom occur ii
attention be paid to tie following symp-
toms: VI hen a horse is lame in the
shoulder he drags his toe along the
ground, from inability of the muscles of
the shoulder to lift the foot from the
ground. # he tits his foot high, the
shoulder can not be much affected. On
walking down Hill he cat hes up the leg
with considerable quickness. He will
fre .uently stumble on going up hill,
and will make shorter step with the
lame leg than with the other. lie goes
equally lame on soft or hard ground,
which is not the case when the lame
ness is in the foot. In shoulder lame
ness there is no difference in the tenn
perature of the two fore feet.-Breeder'

Management Of Milk.

The care of the milk is an important
matter. The old method of setting
milk in a pantry where it was SO cold
that in a few hours it froze-dd not
produce a good quality nor large
quantity of butter. In order for cream
to rise, proper regula' ion of the tenn
peratu e is all imp rtant. Exactness
in this respect an only be secured by
the use OF thermometer. Guessing at
the temperature will never enable one
TO produce uniformly good quality of
butter. If the milk is set in shallow
pans, the temperature OF the milk-rOom
should be kept at about 90 deg. Milk
thus exp jsed cools raaidly enough to
promote the rapid rise of cream, and
yet d. es not cool to 80 low a point as to
interfere W tn the RS ng after the mini
mum temperature has seen reached. 1t
has been found that falling tempera-
ture promotes the rising of the cream.
Yet the fall should not be too rapid; the
cooling should be slow enough to give
time for the cream to rise, since after
the stationary point has been reached
the cream rises much less Rapidly tan
while the temperature IS falling. As
regards stationary temperature, II high
temperature is more favors Bile to the
rising of cream than low one The
cream expands by heat more than the
water. and consequently is proportion
ately Fighter according as the tempera-
ture is CHER. Milk, however, can not
he kept long at a high temperature
wi hout souring, consequently it must
be set at temperature not so high as
to cause it to sour too soon, nor so low
as to interfere with the rising of the
cream. The temperature OF milk when
drawn from the COW is about IS deg. II
set in shallow pans in a room where the
temperature is 90 deg, it will cool with
sufficient rapi,iity to promote the qui K
rising of the cream, will have 80 deg. to
fall, and when it reaches the tempera-
ture of the room the milk will not oe
cold enough to seriously interfere with
the rise OF the cream, nor will the tenn
perature be high enough to cause the
milk to sour before the cream has nearly
ali risen.-N. y. Examiner
