HerefOrds as Mixers.

A writer in the Live Stock Journal
(English) defends the Hereford cow
against the charge that she is poor
mixer. This common estimate of the
Hereford, he contends, is to large ex-
tent fallacy arising from inexperience
and want of knowledge of the breeds
capabilities. He holds that an average
Hereford COW will give almost if not
quite as much milk as an ordinary
shorthorn COW, provided she is kept up
to her milking after calving and gets
the additional food that milking short
horn requires The truth of this con-
tention, he further asserts, can be con-
frmed by the evidence of experienced
breeders. One farmer Of his acquaint-
ance has his sheds filled with hun
bred cows of the Hereford breed, all of
which give satisfaction to the milkmen
to whom the a. nails are hired. There
is no reason TO doubt that the Hereford
is as pliable in the hands of owners as
any other variety is. The breed can
be cultivated for milk production or
for the production of beef, or for both
in moderate degree, just as the other
specialist and general purpose varieties
have had their respective properties
developed.
But the fact remains that the milk
ing prope nsities OF the Hereford breed
probably because the requirements
of the counties in which it chiefly
abounds have not rendered the course
expedient-have not been cultivated
and encouraged TO the extent its beef
producing qualities have been. AS a
grazing breed the Hereford is unsur-
passed and for it's wide district I'M
equalled, but 1t can scarcely be claimed
that, as it exists at the present time,
the breed is one that the farmer who
sacrifices everything to milk produc-
ton would care to adopt. At the same
time, we have not the slightest doubt
that the Hereford milks as literally as
her supporters require. In her ordin-
airy condition she is far from being the
big, massive, beefy animal we see her
in the showyard. She can usually rear
her calf, and something more, which
is as much as can be expected of a
noted beef breed, and more than some
Of them are capable of accomplishing.

THE FILIPINO BABY.
As n Rule He Is n Lusty Youngster,
Although He Does Not Re-
ceive Much Coddling.

Babies are babies all the world round.
The little dark fellow in Egypt cries
for the moon just as does the white
baby In Boston. But the mammas may
differ.
This story is about the little Filipino
baby and how it is carried about by
It's mother; for, after all, that Is the
main point Of difference. Of course,
the Filipino babies do not wear nearly
as many clothes as babies do in this
country, and do not have pins stick
Into them and make them cry. They
lie around on the bamboo floors, with
maybe one garment on, and sleep; and
when they grow old enough their NAM
mas take them out to market. 1t Is
very seldom that they wear anything
on their heads, though most of the
older ones have nice little silk bonnets.
They got them when they went to the
big stone church and were christened.
But they seldom wear them, and many
daughter Is christened in the cap
that her grandmamma was christened
In. Sometimes the mother shades her
infant daughters head from the sun
with an umbrella, but the boy babies
receive no such attention.
But the way the Filipino mother car
ries her baby Is the queerest, and prob
ably the easiest for the mother, that Is
practiced in any country. The child
rides astride on the mothers hip-one
chocolate foot in front and the other
behind. The mother places her hand
against the back of the little one, and
the "nino" Onfant) holds on by grasp
Ing its mothers arm. And that is all
there is to it. In Japan the women
carry the babies in blanket on their
backs, much as an Indian squaw car
ries a pappoose. In Egypt the little
ones are carried on the shoulders of
their parents, while In this country the
small child is carried In the arms.
The Filipino babies are not always
carried on the hips, however. In some
Of the richer homes there are peram-
bulators, or baby carriages. There is
nothing artistic about them. They look
for all the world like clothes baskets
mounted on four very small wheels.
Someti the perambulator does for
cradle as well, and Is so arranged that
the basket sets In frame and can be
swung. Another kind Is simply box
on two wheels. Often the baby is put
into this box and an older sister pulls
it back and forth along the street in
front of the house. The photograph
which goes with this sketch was taken
at Las Penas, south of Manila. This
carriage" was the only one in all the
village, and whoever made 1t had q
view to comfort, as you may surmise
from noticing the little wooden awning
over 1t. Filipino babies learn to talk

AGRICULTURAL.
How Bee Sting May BE Avoided.

A good many people are deferred
from Bookkeeping by the fear of stings.
And yet one does not need to have
many stings if pains are taken to avoid
them. A bee will sting only in de-
fence of its home or its life. There
are times, especially when the honey
flow suddenly stops, when bees are
very jealous of any approach to their
home. AT such times you cannot come
as near their hives as at other times.
They do not often volunteer an attack
if you do not come within rod or two
of their hives. But if you go too near
the hive and bee gets after you, it
may follow you number of rods be-
fore it leaves you.
When bee comes toward you, what
ever you do don't strike at it. That
may make it sting when otherwise it
may have no other thoughts than just
to scold little. Just hold your head
down and walk away. A bee will sell
dom follow you inside the door of any
building.
If bee gets into q dwelling, the
common thing is to be in terror for
fear it will sting some one. 1t has no
notion of the kind. You could not get
it to sting in any other way than to
catch it and pinch it. In that case it
will sting in defence of its life. No
more can you get bee to sting you if
you find one out in the fields at work
on the flowers. You may strike it or
do what you please unless you catch it
and squeeze it in your hand so as to
threaten its life. You may catch it in
your hand and hold it there loosely for
an hour, and it may try to bite little,
but it will never think of singing.
But when you come to actually work
ing with bees, it will be comfort to
you to be protected in such way that
you need not fear their stings, es-
pecially about the face. AT first you
may want to wear gloves, but will pro-
bahly give that up after time, preferr-

A veil of some black material can be
on the hat ready to be drawn down at
any time when the bees appear to be
getting belligerent. 1t can be sewed to
the edge of the rim of the bee hat, or it
can be made like bag, open at each
end, with hem at each end through
which is drawn rubber cord. One
rubber cord holds it tight on the crown
of the hat, and the other holds it about
the neck or chest.
1t may be some comfort to know that
bee stings cease after time to trouble
as much as they do at first. The sys-
tenn seems to become habituated to the
Observation-Disclosures Ploughman.
