Watering Cows.

Il dairy farmer who recently put in a
system whereby each COW had her
own trough always full Of water said
that he was surprised at the marked
increase in the milk yield that fol-
lowed. There is nothing wonderful
in this when we come to look at the
way the average COW is watered. She
is supposed to have water always in
the trough if she is in the yard, but
many time the trough gets empty,
and the COW suffers for water. And
when it is seen how necessary it is
for the COW to have enough water, not
only for herself but for her milk, we
must admit that it is anything but
strange that her milk yield should in.
crease when she can get water when.
ever she wants it. And don't think
that because COW is turned in the
field where there is an abundance Of
water she will not want any when she
comes up to the barn, for such is not
the case. We have seen time and
again cows walk right past the stream
in the pasture, and then go up to the
yard and 50 to the trough to get q
supply Of water. Just why they do it
we do not know, but they do it, and it
is Our place to see that they have an
abundance Of water in the yard or they
will let us know in the milk yield.
