THE AlL-PURPOSE COW.
4 NOndescrlpt. Cselesa aad UttePl
Improbable Animal.

4 NOndescript. useless and Utterly
Improbable Animal.
The dairy business II far more over
done by the average" cow than from
any other one cause. The trouble is
that she eats and exists upon q mans
farm to do just half what is required of
her, and eats as much good food in the
year as her bettcrs. The amount Of
milk this average cow gives is 3,1O0
pounds yearly, and it should be as many
quarts of better milk-as the record for
1000 creameries shows, is not over 3H
per cent. fat, when it should be 4h per
cent. If one looks at this average cow
critically the signs are too often re-
versed from what they should be. i. e.,
her head is too large to correspond with
her udder. and her shoulders wider than
her hips, and her tendency to put tallow
upon her caul and not in her milk, and
has ample storage capacity for every
thing except milk. She is q parasite
that eateth by MONDAY, and wasteth
mans substance by night. and in the
way of '.feecing the innocents." she
beats all the trusts and rings combined.
AS a COW. she is one that uses health and
vigor to destroy food and render as lit
tie return therefor as possible. She il
a product of all the good blood and
bad breeding extant. The blood in her
veins is an amalgamation OF all the
breeds under the sun, and REINFORCED by
the "calico-colored" cattle of the hills,
possessing few traits or her respectable
relations, and embodying all the unde-
sirable qualities of her scrub" kin.
She is the result of chance breeding and
the science Of moon signs combined.
She has place in our later farm indus
try-where farmers and dairymen are
thrown into competition with the
world, and the best only wins--along-
side of the broncho pony and the Texas
steer. She is getting her revenge back
upon the men and their posterity for
the way she was bred and cared for, by
boarding with them and charging up a
large part Of the bill to the credit of
"her company" This average cow has
had a sort of feast and famine sort of q
life; has been baked in the summer sun
and soaked by the autumn rains. frozen
and thawed alternately in winter, and
fed what was handiest and when most
convenient, and milked after every
thing else was done. The truth is, this
average cow will have to 60, and 60
soon, or the sheriff will sell her, and de-
liver her owner over to the demnition
bow-wows. The man with an average
dairy is in the slough Of despond, and
in all similitude should be using q
wooden plow. - John Gould, In San
Francisco Chronicle.
