Nervousness in Cows.

To most people the COW is the most
placid and least excitable. animal in
the world. When well fed and not dis
turbed about her calf she will lie and
chew the cud of contentment for
hours, and while thus-nndisturbed win
secrete all the milk possible from tho
food she has eaten. Yet the domestic
COW, if she be a good mixer, has
capacity for becoming nervous and ex-
citable such as the or or spayed COW
cannot rival. At all times the first
class mich cow must be a. hearty
feeder. So long as she is given all she
wants she may be quiet enough. But
il placed in q pasture where the food
is insufficient or too poor in quality
the quiet cow will soon develop rowing
instincts and will break through
fences in order to get ut what she
likes. The COW that will not do this in
case 81 necessity IS Of lit tie use for

EDUCATE THE CALF.
How to Feed the Young Animal So
That 1t Will Develop Into =
Good Dairy Cow.

In his address at the Indiana State
Dairy association, says Farm News,
Mr.. Goodrich stated that educating an
ANNA! to become q good dairy cow
must begin with the young calf. Mus
cle-forming food should be fed, such as
bran, oil meal, skim milk, etc. Educate
the calf to eat muscle-forming food
as much as possible. Begin to feed the
calf with skim milk and spoonful or
two of oil meal, then give few whole
oats to follow. Nice clover hay should
be available. Feed skim milk six
months or so. He wants an animal to
come in milk at two years. Give the
heifer good box stall and plenty of
straw to calve in. After calving give
her warm water-not cold. Take calf
away gradually, say in two or three
days. After calving feed for awhile
only a little grain, and then depend
mostly on bran. After two weeks you
can begin to feed to full capacity.
Feed variety. It is desirable to have
balanced ration as nearly as can be.
Quotations were given from the Wis
consin bulletin of 100 feeding rations,
showing how some so-called success
full feeders combined dairy cattle foods.
Mr.. Goodrich has found production of
two pounds of coarse food to one of con-
centrated as most satisfactory. succu-
lent foods are important. OF VOLTS 100
feeders, 65 fed ensilage and two roots
If We cannot have green grass, we
should feed either ensilage or roots. It
has paid Mr.. Goodrich to feed little
bran or corn meal in summer. His cows
produced so pounds more of butter per
animal the summer when fed grain
than they did the summer before when
no grain was fed. His grain cost five
dollars, and $13 was derived from tho
butter, showing good balance in favor
of the grain. Do not feed every COW
alike. Mr.. Goodrich's standard feed is
80 pounds silage, five pounds clover
hay, five pounds corn stover, eight
| pounds wheat bran and two pounds
cotton seed meal. Tighten up on the
feed of some cows and increase on 9TH
ers. If she gives more milk by moro
feeding, increase.

BUILDING UP A HERD.
How 1t Was Done, and Most Success.
fully, Too, by a Dairyman
I'm Ireland.

An instructive illustration of the
manner in which the milk and butter
yielding capacities of dairy COWS may
be developed by careful selection is
afforded by some details recently given
publicity to in connection with prom
inent herd on the other side of the
channel. About dozen years ago the
milk of all the cows comprised in this
herd-over 60 in number-was careful
~ analysed. Nine of the COWS were
found to be yielding milk showing over
per cent. of butter fat, % were
yielding over AZ per cent, IA were
yielding over 4 per cent. and % were
yielding under per cent. From this
date onward calves were only kept
off the COWS which yielded milk show
ing over 41a per cent. of butter fat,
and the tribes Of the others were grad
ually weeded out. By the aid of a
regularly kept milk record the prod
uct of every cow is known, and none
is kept for any length of time which
does not yield over 600 gallons per an
mum. By combining what is learned
from the analysis and the milking rec
ord and only keeping calves from cows
whose produce is up to the standard,
alike in quantity and quality, the
milking properties Of the COWS have
been so improved that at present over
60 per cent. of its members are yield
ing milk showing over per cent. and
IS per cent. are yielding milk showing
over ~ per cent. Of butter fat. This
result has only been attained by the
exercise ct great care and scrupulous
attention In the selection of bulls, and
no sire is used without every inquiry
being made as to the milking records
of his female ancestry.-Dublin Qre-

THE OLD DASH CHURN.
How 1t Can Be Made to Do Excellent
Service for Ordinary Farm
Purposes.

There is proper way to employ
almost every implement mentionable,
and dash churn is not to be excepted.
As ordinarily used, however, much dis
satisfaction arises in that the butter
is not good or will not keep well, and
as a result the churn is soon thrown
aside for swing, barrel or box one
Now, albeit the dash churn is not
as good as those just mentioned, where
one has an old-fashioned wooden dash
churn that is in good condition it is
hardly advisable in the majority of
cases to incur extra expense by casting
it aside for one of later date. It can
be made to do excellent service simply
by boring three-fourths-inch hole at
the bottom, as shown in the accom-
panying cut, by which to draw off the
buttermilk and washing water.
This is the way to proceed: When
the butter reaches the granular stage

Sugar Beets for Cow,

Where there is no bee factory
farmers who have dairy herds and no
silo will find the beets actually worth
more than the factories offer in feed
ing out to cows and young stock. Two
acres OF sugar beets with a good crop
should be about right to use up for a
herd Of ten or twelve cows. Perhaps
the chemist may not find nutritive
value of five dollars ton, as compared
with alfalfa hay, but no small part OF
the actual value of the beet is its eff
feet upon the digestion of other foods.
The coarse forage seems to be more
thoroughly digested and more grain
can be fed without danger of over.

nets. They first placed the mystic RI
GUS thing on the gang plank, where it
was left severely alone until one of
the fishermen, a young man of about
IL years of age, got it into his mind
that he would investigate it more
closely. He carried it into the boat,
placed it on the poop, and held a burn
ing match up to the touch hole. A
deafening explosion followed, and a
huge column of smoke rose from the
boat But, strange to say, no one was
killed, or even hurt, except the fool
hardy young man himself, whose nose
was found to be badly bruised. One
side of his boat was knocked out, and
considerable quantities of fish were
spilled into the sea during the commo-
ton. The fishermen and fsherwomen
most concerned became so incensed
that they threatened to do bodily harm
to the young man, but the police in
terfered and saved him from being
