A PET DEER.

Remarkable Affection and Sagacity Of
a Doe Reared in Captivity.
Some things have been written late
ly about deer in general and pet deer
in particular.
My elder brother and l picked up
fawn in the woods while on a Deriving
expedition in strawberry time. She
grew and thrived, never being subject
TO injurious handling-she always OBJ
Jected to being touched by anyone but
myself-and was as large and perfect
iy developed as deer in its natural
state. This Is unusual in domesticated
deer, and was often the subject for
comment among old hunters who had
seen the deer, wild and tame. She
jumped fences for amusement and
rather enjoyed short run before tho
mounds, which she easily distanced for
a mile or two, and would MAKE
straight for home as a house of refuge
Inc mousse dog was her friend and pro-
tector, and the two would lie near to-
gether for hours.
l remember with what delight I dis
covered she would follow nv trail II
was the first time she had leaned the
yard fence. l had gone to look at nv
line OF traps and returned to find her
gone. She had followed my trail into
the woods. Returning, l found her
tracks in a soft place. After that she
was never confined, and / frequently
tested her trailing powers. From some
elevated point would watch her gal

looping on the trail, her head to the
ground for a few steps, then running
on hot scent, following every wind
ing of my path, made perhaps an hour
before.
When she came to where l was she
would express satisfaction in the meet
ing by standing near to be caressed,
and then selecting place near by
with great care to lie down, unless
moved on, when she would follow at
heel as faithfully as dog.
No animal of SO light a frame can
compare with the deer for strength
and poise. They are built for speed,
like the racing yachts, and there is no
question that in speeding like an ar
row through the woods they surpass
all their kind.
My first Photographic attempt was a
picture of this deer as she lay on the
shady side of the house on a warm
day in early spring with all four legs
sprawled out in a way that in any
animal but deer would be ungraceful
but a position / thought was particu-
larly fetching. / have a faded print OF
that picture yeti was never clear
cut-but the dim outline serves to fix
in mind happy companionship.
The eccentricities of pet deer are
found to be annoying to all but the
one person who stands between the
pet and the outraged neighbOr who
would deal summary vengeance for the
wreck Of kitchen garden or flower
bed. Out of fondness for the creature
he soothes his friend and repairs the
damage if possible; but the deer car
never be taught to respect property
rights
1 We have yet to hear of tame deer
that lived out its days in peace. In it:
natural wild state every mans han(
Is against it; domesticated, its
chances for survival are small. Onl!
the rich could give adequate protection
to favored pet of the deer kind.
AS remarked before, it is only wher
reared in his bosom, as the Arab!
steed in his tent, that there is a bono
of protection between man and tn,
beast only second to the human affec
tion.-Norman Price in Forest and

Effect of Ensilage on Butter
One objection held by many dairy
men to the use of ensilage Is that it
affects the flavor of the butter. If this
is actually their experience there is
something wrong in the handling OF
either the ensilage of the silo. All
who handle cows are familiar with the
effect on the butter of any sudden and
decided change in food, The change
from the winter rations of hay and
grains to the young pasture in the
spring gives decided flavor to the
butter, and a similar taste is easily
detected when green foods or roots are
fed in abundance. If the silo Is we'll
built so that the silage will ferment
just at the right period and to the
proper degree, there need be no fear
of any Objectionable faint in the but
ter provided the silo has been filed
with proper material. If wild onions,
leeks, etc., are put in the silo with the
grain, or If some portion of the grain
or corn stalks were disease-infected,
naturally enough when fed the effect
on the butter will be very apparent,
II such ensilage comes out of the silo
it is much more profitable to look it
over carefully, destroying any that is
damaged, than to run the risk OF
having churning of butter thrown
thrown back on ones hands, or worse
yet, have one shipment of tainted but
ter destroy the reputation for superior
flavor it had taken years to acquire.
The silo pays and pays we'll when
properly built and filed with first class
sweet grains.
Avoid Butter Personalities.
The temptation to use preservatives
in butter making may be great, but the
dairyman should resist 1t if he does
not want to destroy the record for
quality it has taken him years to get.
Boracic acid is the base of all butter
preservatives. and so injurious to the
human stomach is this known to be
that the civilized countries of the
world are taking action in the matter
and confiscating all butter or imita-
lions of butter containing traces OF
boracic acid. In some countries a
heavy fine is also imposed. The United
States are behind other nations in this
respect, but are fast coming to the
front so that the time is not far distant
when it will be made a criminal offenSs
to use preseryatives in butter. A
word of warning is thus timely. In re-
atty there is no necessity for preserv-
atiVes of any kind if butter is honestly
and properly made and packed. 1t is
only when an attempt is made to mar
ket a poor product, or to mix a good
one with many times it's bulk in the
spurious article for the purpose of sell
ing the latter. that the preservatiye
becomes necessary to disguise fraud.
