Overlooking the Cow.

Every dairyman in this land recog-
nizes the desirability of proper utensils
TO use in this work. A proper dairy
room. proper feed. but above all Is the
proper dairy COW overlooked quite
often. So many writer's are telling how
necessary it is to have the best churn,
separator, feed, &C.. but entirely forget
the fact that there is n cow in the field.
You may have a marble-finished dairy
house. Danish and other foreign makes
of dairy tools, improved by Yankee in
genuity, and il you have not the cows
your dairy is nit" Next to the COW
comes the man, or the Improvement on
the dairyman-the dairywoman.-Jer-

Dairy Notes.

The cow needs very little exercise IN
summer.
Richness In milk cannot be main
tanned without a variety of food.
The time to temper cream is before
it goes into the churn mot after.
Churning Is a work of separation ana
needs to be done at an even and uni.
form temperature.
Neatness of package Is Of great adj
vantage In selling butter, especially to
special customers.
1t pays to observe strict cleanliness
not only in the manufacture OF the out
ter but in the handling and keeping OF
the package.
An ~over-fed cow will not digest all OF
her food and IN this way her milk and
the butter made from it will be in
jured.
At all times milk-producing food,
rather than a fattening ration, should
be fed to the dairy cows always pro-
viding as good a variety as possible.
1t requires care to make good butter.
In summer the milk should be set az
o as possible after 1t Is drawn, and
at as near a normal temperature a
possible.
Where the cows are kept only fer
their milk and no special attention Is
paid to the calves, a heifer that q
been kept in a good, thrifty condition
can be bred 50 as to drop her calf a.
two years.
The milking organs must be devel-
oped the first time the heifer Is in milk
IL she it to prove a good mixer after
ward. For this reason the first caif
should be dropped at a time when milk
producing food Is plentiful.
Cows that are kept especially for
winter mixers should be made to come
fresh In the fall, and then with good
feed and care they can be depended
upon TO give a good flow OF milk
throughout the winter.
Within certain limits high feeding,
and especially high heterogeneous feed
ing does increase both the yield and
the richness OF the milk. But when
high feeding Is pushed beyond a com
paratively limited range, the tendency
is to increase the weight of the ami
NAL.
Butter Is going to be purchased from
the individual who can produce the
best butter ut the lowest price; and tho
purchaser cares not whether 1t was
made by a black, white, yellow or
brown The best butter IL
what is wanted. The American dollar
has not an ounce of prejudice in it,
Booker Il. Washington.
No luck, nor cooperative effort can
have any effect upon the milk which
the coy gives, o upon the cost OF
feeding, nor thoroughness In the dairy,
nor upon the quantity Of the product.
All depends upon the COW and the
man. Even a good COW with a thick
headed wne does not amount to
much.
Many dairies are kept which do mol
produce $50 pounds Of butter to the
COW. The farmer who keeps q half
dozen cows which make during the
year an average of 800 pounds has a
pretty good thing, yer Ii he does call
it a side issue. Count it up at 20 cents
a pound, and do not forget the skim
milk and buttermilk as by-products.
Nervousness and ~viciousness are en-
gendered in the ill-treated COW, and
are transmitted to her offspring. Tho
more docile the COW, the more are her
energies likely to be devoted TO the
dairyman's interests. We cannot b
too watchful over irresponsible help,
who hesitates not to beat, hurry uor
brighten cows. IN

separator MIX for calves.

Certainly the dairy farmer who
makes money on a 15-cent butter
market must employ every modern con-
yenience at his command and see to 1t
that nothing goes to waste. The hand
and small power separators have been
a blessing in these times. The butter
fat is quickly separated and the freshly
skinned milk, with the addition Of q
small part of oil meal makes a COM
plete and delicious ration for the young
calf. is not this better than the old
way of feeding cold milk to the calves,
and what sort of calves did we have?
The pot belly sort and no larger as
yearlings than a well-fed calf at six
months ought to be. We believe that
any careful farmer, with ten good
cows, will easily pay for a hand ma
chine during a single year, In the
quicker handling Of his product and in
making good yearling calves.-Prairis
