Biz SHIPMENT of Butter.

tics relative to the butter trade of Aus

consignment of butter in one vessel

Gently sailed in the Austral for Eng
land. The India had also on board 43S
tons, so that in one week Melbourne
has earned the credit of sending out the
largest shipment of fresh butter which
ever left any port in the world. Includ-
ing q small consignment for Cape Town,
the shipment comprised 81, 900 boxes of
butter. AS an experiment, 500 dozen
eggs were included among the produce
for this port. The value Of the butter
and some 10000 rabbits on board for
England was $676, 443. so. call atten-
tion to this for the reason that MY eff

mentioned in recent report, butter has

A Summer Resort For the Cow.


The secretion of milk being in large
measure due to the nervous condition
Of the animal, it is important that we
give her comfortable surroundings
where she can recreate and chew her
cud, says D. H. Otis. Last summer the
Kansas Agricultural college herd was
pastured one-half mile north Of the col
lege barn, and in order to furnish pro-
lection from the hot sun and the flies a
small thicket in the lower end of draw
was opened up. The COWS ignored this
act of kindness and betook them
selves to the top of the highest bluff,
and there, where the cool breezes would
strike them, recreated with seeming
satisfaction. The stiff breezes. usually
found on such high spots, had the effect
of driving away many of the flies, and
left the COWS free to manufacture pas
ture grass into milk. Any dairyman
having a high knoll Or bluff accessible
to his cow pasture would do well to fix
it as summer resort for his COWS. If
possible, select bluff where trees will
furnish plenty Of shade. If that be i'm
possible, an open shed will keep off the
hot sun. While the cow is thus enjoy
ing her summer outing she will at the
same time be hard at work returning
thanks to her owner in the form of but

What the Separator Has Done.

The separator has done more to slim
ulate dairying than all else combined
and now statistics show it to be one Of
the greatest industries in the United
States. The dairy interests stand pre-
eminent. For the year 1898 over $780,
000, 900 was distributed among milk
producers and has helped a great deal
to overcome the depression which came
on in 1898. 1t is also shown in reports
that 81, 900, 900, 900 would be nearer

Difference In Tests.

E. G. Bennett of Tripoli, Ia, in an
article on dairying says: '.Do not lose
your temper and say harsh things if the
milk does not test the same way every
time. The cow is female, and she va
ries in her quality and quantity of milk
as,your sweetheart varies in the sweet
ness of her smiles. Do your best, as an
intelligent and sympathetic man, and
look to the average results.

mcnt and Prevention.
The New Jersey experiment station
issued an excellent bulletin on milk fe-
yer. It is claimed that one form of the
disease is caused by germs. This may
count for the fact that, in some herds
and barns. milk fever seems to be con-
tagious.
Treatment should begin a week or
two before the calf is expected and
should be practiced on every COW whose
condition is such as to lead the owner to
fear the occurrence of milk fever when
she calves. The treatment is to con-
tinue for a week after calving. Begin
giving short rations; feed sparingly of
rich food. such as grains and clover;
rather give apples and bran mash. Give
Falt to provoke thirst and encourage
the COW to drink by warming the water
if it is cold. Large doses of epson salts,
a pound to the quart of water, may be
given once or even twice a week, to
provoke an unwcnted activity of the
bowels and to counterfeit the tendency
of constipation. If the udder is distend-
ed, it should be rubbed and MIXED reg
ularly. The cow should be kept in
place which is dry, clean, airy and cool
in summer and warm in winter, away
from the other animals Should the
owner fear that his method has not sue
ceeded in reducing the blood sufficient
ly, as may happen when the time is
short, veterinarian should be called to
let out several quarts of blood from
the jugular vein of the neck.
Just before calving, the vagina should
be washed out with a generous injec-
ton of 2 per cent creolin solution,
which should be repeated daily after
calving for few days. Immediately
after the calving is completed the veter-
marian should inject creolin solution
into the uterus, as in cases of abortion.
Neither carbClic acid nor corrosive
sublimate nor iodoform can be recon-
mended for disinfecting the genital
passages, but these disinfectants and
others may be used literally upon the
soiled bedding, barn floor, etc. If the
cow is down, she should be propped up
on the brisket to prevent the running
of food into the lungs from the stom-

Columbus, o., June 3.-The Republi-
can state convention yesterday nom
mated Judge George K. Nash, the ia
vorite Of Senator Hanna, for governor,
and Representative John A. Cald-
well, the favorite of George B. Cox, for
lieutenant governor. with the other five
nominations distributed among those Of
less distinct party affiliations. What
was generally called the Hanna-Cox
combination controlled large majority
Of the S13 delegates, but it did not eXer-
else it's power beyond the nominations
of Nash and Caldwell. The conference at
which Hanna, Cox and others reached a
mutually sat sfactoIy understanding did
not conclude till a. m. yesterday, an
hour before the convention embed
1t was all over then with Daugherty
and other candidates and known that
the convention would conclude it's work
without any such protracted session as
had been anticipated.
Guilbert and Huffman were nominated
for second terms without opposition.
When some of the delegates raised the
cry of "slate" George B. Cox himself
was the first to break the slate by
ilton county, which he had cast on the
first and second ballots for Judge Hull
for attorney general, to Jas. NJ. Sheets.
Judge Hull had been generally consid-
cred as a sure winner, as he had been
slated. Judge Hull had been a candi-
date for governor, and withdrew after
the first ballot, his support going to
Nash on the second ballot. There was
opposition to the plan Of any one being
a candidate for two places on the ticket,
and Judge Hull was again defeated after
a very hard fight.
The only other place in which the
slate was broken was in the nomina
ton for supreme judge. The incumbent,
Judge Bradbury, was candidate for
third term and he was opposed on that
ground as we'll as on the cry of SLATE"
