Feminine Dairy Wisdom.

Never leave the cows out in the cold
rains in May. They might better go
without food than to be thus exposed.
Many a COW contracts a cold being left
out in early rains and it either results in
inflammation Of the lungs and cough
or inflammation and assesses of the
stomach, and these thoughtless dairy
men(?) wonder why this or that cow
does so poorly.
If they are accidentally left out in a
rain and seem cold put them in the stable
as soon as possible and rub them well. II
they shiver put blankets on them until
they are dry. If there is inflammation
or hardness in the udder, battle it thor
oughly for at least half an hour and rub
gently until thoroughly dry.
II this does not effect a cure put warm
hax.seed poultce on the udder, which
can be held in place by means Of an eight
tailed bandage.
This should be changed twice a day
until the hardness and soreness are gone
OF course, the COW should be MIXED out
two or three times each day.
Small doses OF aconite every hour will
be beneficial.
Do not forget to plant an extra amount
