Blood in Milk. The presence OF blood
or re blood corpuscles in the mllK Is IN
dicatiye of disorder OF the granular sub
stance of the udder which may be OF
various kinds. The globues or smal!
divisions OF the milk glands consist OF
yesicles which contain the globules OF tat
that are found in the milk or cellular sub
stance, among which the capillary or ex-
Gee lingly fine blood vessels ramify very
closely. As these vesicles break down
and decompose to form the milk, carry
ing with them the fat globules, and are
quickly replaced by new structure, 1t is
readily perceived that it is very easy for
the capillary vessels, which contribute
through the blood both the albumlnous
matter and the fat globules to form these
vesicles, to discharge blood Under I'M
favorable circumstances by which any
injury may be done or any excitement OF
the circulation or int1amatOry or conges-
tive condition may be produced. Many
causes may thus contribute to this defect
in the milk, and it is difficult to state, OF
even guess, what the causes may be.
The remedy is to soothe and allay the
excited circulation by cooling, laxative
medicine, and emollient and cooling APP
plication to the udder. A pound of Ep-
som solts is generally useful, and warm

ing application of some gentle stimulant

Don't Stint the Calves.-A calf is worth
nearly as much as COW. Not that il
will bring as much money, but at very
small outlay it will be brought to COW
and if well fed and cared for it will make
good COW. The best OF all grain foods
for calf is bran, and although the stand
ard feeding tables give rye bran higher
value than wheat bran, the latter is con
siderably the better food. Wheat brar
contains more than three per cent. O
sugar, and rye bran less than one pei
cent. Sugar being wholly digestible ant
easily changed into vital heat, wheat brar
is good food for young animals in the
winter. AT the same price per pound a,

for its nitrogen, but for the phosphates i
