THE DAIRY.

Cows when first turned on grass
need watching.
A mich cow should have all the feed
she can digest and assimilate.
Paste the following in your straw
hat: "A good pasture makes fcnce-plind
cows"
A standard scale for Judging butter
allows for flavor SO points, grain 25,
color ID, package 5, salt ). total 100.
Don't 60 to fooling with COW unless
she is suffering; some cows always look
rs II they were bloated when on tender
pasture.
DO not forget that even in the hot
test weather milk fed to calves must be
warmed, or it will be almost certain to
bring on the scours, to the great injury
Of the calf.
If farmer should cover bis farm
with cows. and neglect them, he would
not make as much money as he would

Equality makes price," says an ex-
change, referring to butter. Not always.
That is to say, an article OF first-class
butter may not bring the top price.
Reputation has something to do with it.
1t is for that reason that We SO FREE
quentiy urge the butter-maker to make
first-class article and put his brand
upon the package.
If fly or mosquito buzzes around
his face the mixer will stop milking
operations and make . desperate slap
at the offender; but when Mooley has
flies tickling her back and perhaps the
mixer is tearing open cracks on her
teats and sticking his uncut nails into
her flesh. she is expected to stand pa
tiently and not even switch her tail,
says a contemporary.
The skin Of COW Is as necessary for
the proper publication of the blood rs
lungs are, and it discharges in offensive
vapor greater quantity of matter every
day than the kidneys do. While a
cow may discharge twenty pounds OF
water through the kidneys she will take
into the stomach one hundred pounds.
The slightly pounds passes of through
the shin chiefly and takes along the
dead waste matter which is thrown of
from the fine cap.!laries through the

When tho milk has a COW Y odor you may
be sure the skin is not working right
and needs thorough brushing TO remove
the scurf and dried matter which covers
up the pores. And this is the reason

maker is daily impressed with the fact
that in tho manufacture Of butter
quality is sought after and expected
which comes up to the standard in
flavor, color, grain and sailing.
OF what milk is composed: It con.
tains one part protein in solution, two
parts fatty matter, finely divided to
form an emulsion, three parts sugar in
solution, and four parts mineral salts,
making in all ten parts. In the above
proportions milk is recognized every.
where as most perfect food, not only
for children, but for invalids whose
organism forbids the ingestion of strong
foods in solid form. Butter made from
food SO perfect in composition will no,
fail to tickle the palate and satisfy the
most fastidious account. The excellent
qualities which butter possesses, its uni
yersal use among all the civilized world,
and the fair price it so generally COM
mands are the best OF reasons why it is
so largely counterfcited. We are we'll
aware that all food comes primarily
from the vegetable kingdom, and vege.
table products are built up through the
agency OF the suns rays. There are
scientists who claim that the animal
economy, in respect to its capacity to
turn force to account in the accomplish
ment OF work, is a more perfect instru.
ment than the steam engine. Therefore.
the animal body may be regarded a.
holding position analogous to . ma.
chine in which transmutation of chem.
ical into other forms Of force is taking
place. Food on the one hand, and air
on the other. are the wonderful factors
concerned in this wonderful chemical
action which is going on. The cream OF
milk consists mainly Of fatty matter,
which by virtue OF its lightness, rises te
the surface. The compost ton of cream
will necessarily vary according to the
