Does Breed Control the Richness OF
Milk

1t is undoubtedly true that the quail
ity of the milk is dependent upon the
breed of the COW, but it is not exclu-
siyely dependent upon it. writes Pro-
fessOr Armsby to the Rural NeaC Yorker.
Two other potent factors in determin-
ing the quality of the milk are the in
dividuality of the COW and the food
which she receives. Of these. the indi-
viduality of the COW is much the more
important and frequently eXerts a
greater influence than either the breed
or the feed. Single COWS of any breed
may produce milk either much better
or much poorer than the average of
the breed, and a single cow of some
one breed may give milk of better
quality than the average of some other
breed which, as a whole, gives better
milk than the breed to which the single
cow belongs. The breed and indi-
viduality of the cow, taken together,
determine her capacity as a milk-pro-
ducing machine, both as to quantity
and quality of the milk. The feed
simply furnishes the material to be
worked up by the machine. Conse-
quently while it is true that a poor COW
will give poor milk, even upon the best
of feed, it is not true that good COW
will give good milk, no matter what
she is fed upon. A good COW means
simply one that has the capacity for
producing large amounts of milk and
butter from her feed. 1t does not
mean a cow that can make something
out of nothing. Plainly, then, while
NE feeding of food rich in butter-mak-
ing materials to poor cows is very
Improbable business, it is equally
profitable to keep good dairy cows and
not supply them with abundance of
material from which 10 produce milk.
Summarizing, should say:
/. The quality of milk which a cow
can produce depends upon her breed
and individuality, and in this sense,
the quality of the milk ismore depend
ent upon breed than upon feed. On
the other hand, the quality of milk
which any given COW s0iU produce, is
very largely dependent upon her feed.
2. By feeding rich foods, the pro-
portion of butter-fat in milk can be in
creased. The bulk of cream obtained
is dependent upon SO many other Cir
cumstances than feeding that it affords
no safe guide as to the real effects of
the latter.
3. The standard rations given for
the feeding of dairy cows, presupposes
that the animals are good of their kind.
On the other hand, the standards are
not sufficiently exact to admit of modi-
fication for each breed of COWS. The
feeding standards are intended simply
as guides to rational feeding to be
modified in each particular case, as
experience may show to be necessary.
t. In only two experiments has the
ratio of butter fat to caseine been OBJ
served to change as a result of feeding.
Whether that ratio could be changed
by systematic feeding continued
through two or three seasons; l have,
at present, no means of deciding, as
the experiment has never been made,
SO far as / know.

A Mexican Boys Pie.

/ asked of boy, who was stuffing
himself with what thought was pie if
he had breakfasted- well. He did not
understand my Spanish, but with that
generosity which seems born with a
Mexican the little fellow quickly di-
vided his pie" and gave me goodly
slice. Without waiting to see what
the pie was made OF / took quite a
large bite of it, and the next moment
felt as though I had swallowed a
bunch Of needles with the red end Of a
hot poker. The boy laughed and
rolled on the ground in his merriment
as the tears came TO my eyes, and l
tried in vain to gulp down the horrid
stuff he had given me to eat.
And what do you think it was?
Two thin slices of hot cakes dipped
in burning sauce made of hot red
pepper. l never again tried to break
fast away from the American Hotel,
for | soon learned that red pepper was
the chief ingredient of the Mexican diet,
and that even the boys and girls en-
joyed their fiery breakfast as an Ameri-
can child enjoyed its cakes and sirup.

A BABY Beavers DANA college
professor in Maine tells how he convin.
ced q friend who did not believe that
beavers could build dams. He bought 8
baby beaver of hunter one day and
sent it to his skeptical friend. The
beaver became a great pet IN the house,
but showed no signs of wanting to build
dams until one Monday morning leaky
pailful of water was put on the floor in
the back kitchen. The beaver was there;
he was only baby then, too, but the
moment be saw the water oozing out OF
a crack in the pail he scampered into
the yard, brought in chip and commen-
ced building his dam. His owner was
called, and watched the little fellow, very
much astonshed by what he saw. lie
gave orders to have the pail left there,
and the industrious beaver kept at hi.
work four weeks, when he had built O
solid dam all around the pail. The pro-
fessor's friend believes now that beavers
know a thing or two about dam bulldog.

A Careless Word.

Once long ago, among the gods. arose Balder
fair and bright,
And laughing bade them aim at him, because
mis- life was charmed.
So, though their spears and darts they hurled
at him with might.
He stood amid the heavy rain of weapons
all unharmed.
Then there arose q poor, blind god, one who
loved Balder well,
And with unseeming, feeble aim, his harm
less weapon sped
piece of mistletoe. 1t struck and Balder
fell.
And all Vslhalla rang with grief and mourn
cd for Balder dead.
And SO sometimes the happiness that sings
within our heart.
Agrinsr all heavy evil blows that fate can
strike seems charmed;
Our gladness sings unhurt, we laugh at each
new dart
That dashes where our treasure is, and
leaves IL all unharmed.
Then one who never meant us i'll, speaks but
little word.
A careless, needless word, perhaps-a very
little thing;
And happiness lies dead-dead like singing
bird.
That never more will spread its wings, that
never more will sing.

The Smallest Screws in the World.

The smallest screws in the world are
made in watch factory. There can
be no doubling that assertion on any
score. They are cut from steel wire by
machine. but as the chips fall down
from the knife it looks as if the opera
ton was simple cutting up the wire
for fun. One thing is certain,no screws
can be seen, and yet screw is made
every third operation. The fourth
jewel wheel screw is the next thing to
be invisible, and to the naked eve it
looks like dust. With glass, however,
it is seen to be small screw, with two
hundred threads to the inch, and with
a very fine glass the threads may be
seen very clearly. These little screws
are $1,000 of an inch in diameter, and
the heads are double the size. 1t is
estimated that an ordinary lady's
thimble would hold 100000 of these
tiny little screws. About 200, 900 of
them are made 4 month, bst no at
tempt is ever made to count them. In
determining the number 100 OF them
are placed on very delicate balance,
and the number of the whole amount
is determined by the weight Of these
All of the small parts of the watch are
counted in this way, probably fifty out
Of the 100. After being cut, the screws
are hardened and put in frames, about
one hundred to the frame, heads up
This is done very rapidly, but entirely
by sense of touch instead of sight, 50

as the owner of the sharpest eyes. The

on which they are polished is covered
with oil and grinding compound, and
on this the machine movest them rapid

How to Hitch HGrses.

Joseph Howard, of this town, has
given Us new and, az he says, most
usful hint in the art of hitching horses.
Instead of the usual head or neck hall
ter he carries in the wagon short
piece of half-inch cord, -looped. When
he wishes to leave his horse this cord
is used to tie the fore legs together just
below the knees, and when so tied you
are always sure to find your horse Just
where you left him. The horse doesn't
dare 10 move, the cord is easily adj
Justed, and the case often occurs that
you wish TO hitch horse where no
post is found, as in Il haying field or
city street. Besides, it soon teaches
the horse to stand without being
hitched at ail.-kenRe5ec .Tour31aL.
