Dairy Notes.

A good mich COW is one of the best
properties on the farm.
Always see that the mich COW has
good milk-forming ration.
Don't feed the cows heavily for ten
days or two weeks after calving.
The alfalfa fever is taking hold of
dairymen in all parts of the state.
A COW on full pasture will not pay
for any extra feed that may be furnish
ed her. :.~
Between hay and grass is a precar-
ious period for the COWS. They will
bear attention. .@-.
A good COW with poor keeper may
eat her head off more than once dur
ing lifetime. .....%
The cow can't do everything. You
have got to make the butter and find a
market for it. -. 51 -r~%
A poor COW can so effectually hide
herself among lot Of good ones that

In New York recently butter was
selling at from sixteen to sixty cents q
pound The first was made last June,
and perhaps was not the best and the
last was only twenty hours old.
The present demand is for fresh but.

price. It is difficult to keep butter
very long and have it retain its best
