Dairy Hints.

The albuminOids in whey are as 10 SO in
skim milk while the other solids are nearly the
same in both. Chemists, in comparing the
feeding value, make that Of whey as IL cents to
% cents for skim milk, or about half as much
per 100 pounds.
the yearly milk supply, so that less milk
should be produced in summer and more in
winter This would equalize the prices for the
whole year. greatly increase the consumption
in the winter, and in the end bring great profit
to dairymen. Ii is well to remember that il
costs only about 10 per cent. more to keep a
COW in good milking condition than II does to
keep her dry, as she ought TO be kept, while
the returns from winter milk are fully 80 per
cent. more than from summer milk.
There is great need that large proportion Of
the yearly milk supply should be diverted from
a summer to a winter flow. Butter is unreason-
ably cheap in summer, because So great ma.
iority of the farmers have their cows calve in
the spring. Hence there is but little profit
gained from the COW. 1t is also unreasonably
dear in winter, because so few cows are made
to calve in the fall.
Prof L. r. Arnold once said that "a COW go
ing into a stable filed with the odor of solid
and liquid excrements will carry il into her
milk in fifteen minutes" For this reason he
insists that stables should be ventilated in such
way that pure air will come 10 the cattle from
the front. True and this is one OF the reasons
why a COW barn should have wide barn floor
through the center; why the cows should stand
with their heads toward the center, and have
wide sbace behind them, with large grated and
wire-screened windows behind them and vide
stable doors at both ends OF the stable, and big
barn doors at both ends Of the center floor.
This arrangement of stables and floors, aided
by plaster busted upon the well cleaned stable
floors, will make a suitable habitation for n
clean COW 10 dwell In.
