In the report OF a New York farmers
meeting notice the following. 'Proi'
Robinson ofOntario Is reported as say
Ing that no COW should be fed more
than eight pounds OF cotton seed meal a
day. The COW will not respond to more
than that. II the digestive organs or

vlduality of the animal must be stud

conditions must be considered when
answering the question Just as the price

for the dairy COW"
Now. while the conclusions drawn are
quite correct. yet farmers must use care

the Farmers Review two weeks ago.
the feed should be small at first and
gradually increased.

The Grass and Hay Ration-A good
quality OF grass. or OF the grasses, Is
considered to be one Of the best and
most perfect rations for milch cows
during the summer season; hence, who
ever keeps a dairy, will consult his
own interests In securing the best pas
lures possible by proper Improvement
for this purpose. Reasoning from the
same standpoint the farmer should en-

hay for winter feeding Especially ia

THE SoURING OF MILK.
Thunderstorms Seem to Have But Little
TO Do with 1t.

Thunderstorms Seem to Have But Little
TO Do with 1t.
From data deduced in various expert.
ments conducted by Prof. Ell. w. Conn,
who has been trying to establish some
identity between thunderstorms and
the well-known phenomenon Of milk
souring, the conclusions drawn point
to the fact that the atmospheric condi-
tions prevailing at such times are not
such as to cause structural transforma-
ton in the tactical fluid. Neither is the
electricity which pervades the atmos-
phere at such times capable Of souring
milk, or even materially fastening the
process. Some have suggested that
ozone is one of the prime causes of the
change from sweet to sour milk in q
very short time, but Prof. Conn has
proven that ozone is no more RESPONSE
BILE for the change than are the electric
conO tions which prevail at such times.
To bacteria, the microscopic atoms Of
vegetable growth which are now sup.
posed to cause almost everything, the
professor attributed the souring of the
milk. Milk is a favorite breeding
ground of the bacteria. They grow
best and multiply most rapidly during
the warm, sultry period which immedi-
ately preccdes electrical storms. These
microscopic forms of plant life not only
grow and increase in numbers with
alarming rapidity, but each exudes mi
mute drops of acid, which is SO sour
that none of the commercial acids can
be compared with it. This acid sours

How a Country Cousin Made Miserable q
Newly Made Man About Town.
When an adaptive young man from
the far corner of some New England
or western state lives for a time in
New York, and absorbs enough of its
atmosphere to gain the prestige of
regular boulevardier, it's pretty hard
now and again to have old times thrust
upon him in the person Of a primitive
cousin or brother-in-law, whom he is
bound in conscience to entertain. A
case of this kind occurred last week,
in which the artless relative saw moth
ing but screamingly funny lapse of
memory, while the man about town
found a modification therein which
was pretty hard to live through.
A complete deliverance of the bump
kin into the hands of the outfitter made
him presentable, and then there was
the little bachelor dinner at a Fifth
avenue hotel given by the swell to al
the smart men, who wanted ''to meet
your cousin, don't you know"
All went merry until the wine list
came forth. To be sure, the pumpkin
talked too loud and refused to under
stand any monitory wink, but then he
said nothing too badly out of place.
what wine will you have?" said the
cousin, addressing him.
"Haw! haw! l don't know, Cousin
Dick, anything about the wine. You'll
have to settle that yourself"
''Shall we begin on a bottle of Sau-
terne?"
"Lordy, how can tell! Anything
you likel" shouted the red-cheeked,
bullet-headed youth, who couldn't
make head or tail of the winks and
looks of deadly warning emanating
from the swell's eye.
People at adjoining tables pricked up
their ears in amused curiosity, while
the guests at the table looked trifie
disconnected at the pumpkins noise.
What" said the swell, firmly plant
ing his index finger on the word
"Medoc," and glaring at the youth
mesmerically, so that he might under
stand and repeat it, do you generally
take?"
"Usually!' shouted the youth. "Hawl
Haw! Haw! Isn't that great? Usual

stretched out at full length and roared
satisfactorily for about five minutes,
while a sense of frozenness stole over
his cousin and the swells looked on in
amused pity.
That frozen cousin is dead hence

VICTORY FOR DAIRYMEN.
States Have the Right to Regulate tn,
Sale OF Oleomargarine.

States Have the Right to Regulate the
Sale of Oleomargarine.
The law of Massachusetts forbids
the sale of oleomargarine colored to
initiate butter. Benjamin Plumey, a
Boston dealer and agent for the Chi
cago fraudulent butter makers, under
took to sell oleomargarine colored, con-
trary to law, relying on the unconsti-
tutionality of the law for protection.
He was arrested and the case came be-
fore the courts, where he was tried and
found guilty. He appealed to the state
supreme court and then to the United
States supreme court. Justice Harlan
rendered the decision, declaring that
every state had right to protect its
people from frauds of all kinds, and
should control the sale of food products
in so far as to protect them from adul-
terations and fraud. The original
package decision does not in any way
prevent one state from forbidding the
sale of fraudulent products from an
ther state.
The decision is distinct vi tory for
the dairymen of the United Safes and
covers about the whole ground of their
contention. 1t sets at rest the ques-
ton of the powers of the states to reg
ulate the sale of oleomargarine.-Fa
