WALLACE ON HIS EAR.
The Wallace feeling is: Well, they have
nominated Pattison, now let's see them elect
him. This sentiment was very well ex-
pressed by Benjamin F. Meyers, the Wallace
leader of Harrisburg. An acquaintance re-

Paitison." Meyers Replied, Wallace is a

DIVIDED MiLkINGS.
Extracts from . Bulletin Of the Indias
Experiment station.

Extracts from . Bulletin Of the Indiana
Experiment station.
It Is very commonly known that the
last milk obtained during the milking is
the richest. An experiment was UNDER
taken to get light upon the subject as to
whether this fact can be advantageously
utilized in practice. Six cows were
MIXED daily at six o'clock in the morn
ing and evening. During each milking
the milk was divided by guess into two
lots as evenly as possible. The FIRST
half" and ''last half" Of the milk from
the cows were put in separate vessels.
Portions were analysed which showed an
average of 2. Al per cent. of fat in the drst
half and 4.2S in the last. In other words,
the percentage OF fat in the milk last
drawn was nearly SO (43.6) per cent.
greater than in the frst half. The but
ter value of the second half of the milk
ing therefore appears to be 43.6 per cent.
greater than the value Of the first half
Of the same milking.
By microscopical examinations we
learn that the character Of the fat
globules, as we'll as the proportion of
fat, affects the value of the milk for
butter-making. In order to obtain .
more complete idea of the results Of d.
viding, samples of the mornings milk Of
Jersey and Holstein cow, both full
blooded, were divided, and the fat
globules Of each part examined micro
scopically. The globules Of the second
half Of the milking were in general
larger and more homogeneous than
these OF the last half. Among the con-
illusions are the following:
/. Since the amount of fat can differ
rs much as 1855 per cent. between the
first and last drawn parts of the milk
during single day, there seems to be
very great economy in taking the drst
part Of the milk for family use.
2. When feeding to calves it in quite
sufficient to give them milk from the
first part drawn, and to supply the
further fat necessary for keeping up
the nutritive ratio by using the cheaper
fat in the meal of the oil containing
seeds of grains.
8. II we can obtain milk with more
homogeneous size OF fat globules, the
latter will all rise In the same time; the
ripening Of the cream before churning
will be more even, and the time re-
quired for this ripening more easily
controlled.
This experiment indicates rather than
proves results; but it is certainly safe to
advise the farmer always to divide the
milk at milking, especially since the
only additional trouble required IL the
use Of two sets of milk pals. And the
results seem to render the dairyman
independent of some Of the greatest dit.
fculties with which he has to contend,
especially in the making Of butter

Cattle of improved breeds are OF
greater value for dairy purposes, or for
feeding than the common kinds. They
consume food more economically by re-
turning more pounds OF milk. butter or
beef, for the pounds Of food, and greater
proportionately as that food is balanced
and suited to produce the object sought.
