to hold or to give as he chooses?

at meeting Of the Arbeiter bund. Sew

the societies by divulging certain secrets

THE MODEL COW.

The characteristics of a good useful
COW were thus particularly set forth by
secretary Batchelder of Concord, n. H.,
n a recent address: "She should have
fine, long head; be broad between the
Dyes, the eyes should be large and mild,
he muzzle thin and wide, the ears thin
Ind the inside covered with yellow skin !;
he fore-quarters light. the body wedge
haped, increasing in size to the rear, the
egs fiat with fine bones, the thighs thin,
he bones of the rump set widely apart,
he back broad and straight, the ribs and
barrel round and well sprung, the tail
ong and fine, the udder large and full,
Extending well behind, and the large
nilk-veins under the belly should be full
nd tortuous. A fine horn, a deep yell
ow skin, and general feminine ele-
rance of form are also good indications.
4 well shaped escutcheon on the back of
he thighs and udder will do no harm,
but experience proves that some very ex-
ellent cows lack this characteristic"
He further remarked, that 40 pounds
IF ensilage with eight pounds of hay. or
70 pounds of dried barley or oat fodder,
IF hay, was about the requisite feed for
000-pound COW, per day. An excellent
krain ration for the production of milk in
1000-pound cow, would be four pounds
# gluten or cottonseed meal, two pounds
f corn meal and two pounds of wheat
'r rye bran.
a cow that gives less than 5000 quarts
f milk, or makes less than $50 pounds of
utter in year, is Improbable, and yet
he average production is far below this.
he average in New Hampshire is only
so pounds. AT present prices, it costs
% cents a day to keep a COW in the
table, as cows are usually kept, so that
he COW that gives seven quarts of milk
day, that is sold for three cents a quart
of very little benefit to her owner.
Experience proves that COW will yield
greater income by dropping her calf
between september and November, or in
he fall months, especially if she is turn
d out to grass in the spring. The green
iced stimulates anew the flow of milk,
Ind prolongs the milking season.

MCDOUGALLS' SHEEP DIP.

McDougalls' non-polsonous sheep dip and
cattle dressing, scab specific and insect ex
terminator on sheep, cattle, horses, dogs,
poultry, etc, has been used with great success
in this county tor several years. 1t instantly
eXterminates all ticks, lice and maggots; is
the only true specific for scab, and finely
stimulates the growth OF the fleece, making
its use very profitable. When used at n
special strength II also waterproofs the fieeces,
thus affording the animals great protection
from cold and wet. In the United States,
Great Britain and many places abroad ii is
now generally adopted-having to a large
extent displaced the use of tobacco, arsenic,
lime and sulphur, and poisonous mixtures.
1t has important advantages over such dress
ings, and is more certain in its action. For
