DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

It is we'll to remember that culls will
come with the best of breeding.
If a COW has a sore teat, milk very
carefully and apply extract of witch
hazel.
If a cows teats are muddy or covered
with other filth, they should be washed
with water and then wiped dry before
beginning to milk.
With temperature under control and
churning direct at the right time, the
butter will come solid SO as to be easily
handled and free from buttermilk.
When the butter is marbled it is
either caused by leaving too much but
termilk in the butter at the last work
ing or the salt has not been distributed
evenly.
Bitter butter may be caused by the
COWS drinking of pond water, eating
weeds that give bitter taste to the
milk, and sometimes by allowing the
cows to be too long in milk or it may be
caused by want of cleanliness with the
milk vessels.-Rural World.

It is bad business policy to allow
any part of the machinery or apparatus
in the creamery to break down in the

can usually be prevented by the cream

WATERING THE COWS.

An Important Task That 10 Too Often
Neglected by Dairymen.
I do not mean to advocate the practice
of bringing the milk can into contact
with the pump spout, but I do wish tc
present for serious consideration a
point too often ignored in caring fol
the cows. Ordinury milk has about 81
per cent. water in its makeup, and in
spite of all that may be said as to the
value of proper feeding it is self evil
dent fact that without a proper supply
of water it is impossible for the cow to
give the usual amount Of milk. Never
theless it is not sufficiently understood
that the cow should have water of tho
right kind, and at the right times.
We have often seen cows come up
from the pasture where there was u
running stream that they had to pass
ON their way up and the first thing they
did after getting into the yard was to
mahestraight for the pump trough. The
reason of this was because the water in
the trough was more palatable to the
COWS than the branch water. Whethe,
We "oAV " "a A4Ots ~ W. "a = oSAS~~Ss0A ~
in the dairy business, we must consult
so small thing as the taste OF the COWS,
and if they prefer pump water to
branch water must give it to them.
1t is absolutely essential to the highest
production of milk that the cow have
all the water she wants, and this she
will not have if the water does not suit
her taste.
1t is also important that the COW have
access to water frequently. A camel
may drink once in a week and thrive
but a cow is not camel by any means.
She is using water all the time in
making milk, and her reservoir is not
to hold enough water fol
any length of time.
If a COW is turned out of winters
morning to drink water from which the
ice has been broken first she will not
drink all she wants unless she has been
parched by thirst, and then she will
stand drawn up with the cold chills run.

BLOOD MARRIAGES.

they produce mental dullness, brutal.
ty. insanity, impotence, etc. Liebreich
states that consangninity is frequently
the cause of pigmentary retinitis among
the descendants. Raynaud ranks con.
sanguinity among the conditions
which may produce albinism. Luys
seemed to have proved also, says the
writer, the injurious influence of con-
Eanguineous marriages. On the other
hand, says the writer, others have bold
~ declared themselves in favor Of
these marriages, and state that they arc
not at all injurious, that generally they
give good results. It is not astonishing
then, he says, that in the face of such
extreme opinions other authors, such as
Levy, Bouchardat, Voisin, Darwin,
Lacassagne, Ballet and others, should
view the question from both sides, and
affirm that these marriages are produc-
tive of both good and evil results, &C.
cording to whether the contracting par
ties are exempt from or affected by con-
stitutional diseases. With such q di-
versity of opinions, continues the writ
er, it is difficult for physicians to decide
when they are consulted by patients in
regard to the subject. NJ. Perrin re-
Gently made study of the question
under consideration and gives his con-
customs as follows: First of all, among
the numerous affections attributed
marriages of consanguinity, idiocy, in
sanity and epilepsy are due generally
to heredity, but in a few cases COLI
sanguinity of the parents may certain.
ly be the cause. AS to commissions in
the young, the cases are so numerous
that it is impossible to attribute this
affection to the influence of con-
sanguinity. It may have share in the
production of deaf-mutes, but it is not
an invariable factor. With regard to
affections of the sight, the influence
exercised by consanguinity has been as
certained, and in albinism has been dis
tjnctly proved. Concerning sterility,
NJ. Perrin thinks this cannot be ut =.
tributed to consanguinity alone. He
has further shown that certain con-
genital deformities have been so fire.
quently observed in children whose
parents we're perfectly healthy that,
in these cases, we are forced to admit
the theory of consanguinity alone.
On the whole, says the writer, we may
conclude that if under certain circum-
stances consanguinity and heredity are
two Geological factors which combine
in the same family to bring about the
same morbid results, it is none the less
true that in some cases consanguineous
marriages among healthy persons may
exercise an unfavorable influence on
the children. NJ. Perrin, says the writ
er. advises physicians not to dissuade
their patients from marriage, if there is
no diathesis, no hereditary disease, and
if they are in good health and have
strong constitutions; on the other
hand, it is not we'll to encourage them,
he says, because even in the best con-
ditions the children of such marriages
have presented irremediable defects.
But if the physician discovers the least
trace of physical or mental affections
he should exert all his influence to pre-
vent such marriages, for they could
only be productive of deplorable re-
