SUMMER DAIBYNG.

10 make the summer dairy success
hi may look very simple to one on
the outside OF the business. writes Ct.
II. Newell. Unfortunately the outside
view is shared by many on the inside,
and they are conducting summer
dalrylng solely on the manual labor
idea. Now, it is fact that summer
dairying requires Just as much practi.
cal knowledge, skill and care as win
ter dairying, and the man who ignores
these points never has made COWS paw,
and never will.
The dairyman who draws n monthly
check from his factory, portion of
which IS profit, is not enabled to do
so simply because he owns COWS, but
because he knows how to handle them.
For instance, turning cows out to pas
ture may be the worst thing you can
do Tor them. You must be sure that
there Is plenty of grass for them to
eat, or they Will be worse off than if
tied to straw stack. The foundation
OF successful dairying is to keep the
COWS constantly furnished with all
they can digest of milk-forminp food.
Under this rule good cows are miut
of money, and poor ones will show
surprising results. Either bring the
amount of pasturage up to the mum.
Der OF your COWS, or else reduce the
number of your COWS TO the amount
of your pnsturege. Anticipate the
need of feed several months ahead.
and plant plenty Of fodder corn now.
Better plant too much than too little.
as the surplus will come in play next
winter as s1lage or cured fodder. |
never saw dairyman yet who put In
more fodder corn than he could make
use OF. He generally has too little.
Another important point is to take
care of the milk after you get it. A
daIryman must possess an earnest de,
sire to preserve the milk quality, or |
would not give much for his success
In that direction. A hat-hearted pol.
icy, or Indifference, will almost surely
result in spoiled milk. Nearly every
dairymau now understands the routine
work that it is necessary to follow in
preserving milk quality on the farm.
Tho trouble is that only small pro-
portion of them ms yet put it thor.
uughly into practice. Thoroughucss
How much that means in dairy man
ngomeut. If there are twenty-five
thorough dnirympu in township,
that is equivalent TO twenty-five sue
ccssiul ones. No man can expect TO
always have good milk unless he poes
through routine practice of uerating
md cooling it every night during the
summer. Even If no has plenty of
cold running water, he must not de-
pend entirely on it TO the neglect of
acratiou. By submerging hot milk in
cold water j have known it to develop
the most dangerous faint Thus n
blessing is easily turned into o. curse.
