Trimmed sheen

Some complain much about the in
EQUITY of trimming sheep on the ground
that 1t is an attempt to deceive. says
Professor Thomas Shaw in The North
western Farmer There is only one
way of looking at it. The aim of the
average man who trims sheep is not
so much to deceive as to improve the
appearance of his wares To that end

her appearance that a maiden deco
rates her hair. 1t improves the appear

But, even though the aim should be to
cover up defects, there is one class of
men from whom the defects cannot be
hidden-that is to say, men who under
stand the chief essentials of good NUT
ton form. When these can get their
hands on a sheep. the attempt to hide
its weakness win not avail. In this
we have another Illustration of the
fact that knowledge is power. The
men who are to excel in live stock in
the future must understand it, else they
cannot hold their own in the fierce
competition of today. In this we have
a powerful argument for teaching agri-
culture in our colleges and in giving
every attention to the short course in

Professor x. Beerwald says thai
when the body is fatigued or the brain
has been oyertaxed by excessive men
tai work it is very wrong to take a
cold bath. Such a bath excites, he
says. and if we add this to the already
excited state of the body the result
seems rejuvenating for the moment,
but very soon the tension becomes toe
great, and the body cannot be forced
to do more work.
According to the professor, a warm
bath is the only kind to be applied
when one wishes to recover from
fatigue, and the longer a tired body
remains in bath of, say, 10 degrees
the quieter become the strained nerves
and the easier follows the sought for
rest.
In the morning. after a good nights
rest cold bath is very invigorating,
but at no time during the day, II the
nerves are strained, should It be re-
peated.

w. ]. Kennedy of the University of
Illinois writes that. in figuring out a
balanced ration for winter feeding the
dairy herd at the university farm, he
thought bran at $15 per ton was too
high, and he has done a little figuring
on the protein of that and other foods.
The protein in bran at that price costs
6 cents pound. Taking the known
percentage Of it in other foods at the
same value, it would make oats worth
1917 cents a bushel, clover hay $3.50 a
ton, corn slower 81 per ton. corn fod-
der So per ton. corn ensilage $108 per
ton. gluten meal $30.96 per ton and
oilmeal $500 per ton. AS he could
buy gluten meal for less than $40 per
ton, delivered at the railroad station
there, he decided on using that instead
of bran, and as it hasstwice as much
protein as the bran he substituted
three pounds of gluten for six pounds
of bran, and thus his protein cost him
less than cents pound. Since max
ing the change the cows have increased
their milk production from one to three
pounds each per day, and he Is salts
fed that the gluten meal is the cheap
est source of protein be can find at
present prices.

the Bergh machine cannot be overesti-
mated. Milk is the great conveyer of
two diseases-tuberculos and typhoid.
The latter 0an be eliminated as a risk
by rigid precautions. The bacilli of
typhoid are never present in milk as
it comes from the COW. The microbes
are introduced either by the adultera-
ton of the milk with water or by
washing the cans in which the milk
is shipped with water which is inn
pure.
tuberculosis, which is the scientific
name for consumption, is even great
err danger in milk than the germs of
typhoid. The bacilli of typhoid fever
almost have to be placed In milk, but
the germs of tuberculosis may be pres
ent in fresh drawn milk. Cows never
have typhoid fever, but they do have
tuberculosis. In fact, it is probable
that there is no domestic animal which
is more frequently attacked by tuber-
culosis than the cow.
The worst of it is, too, that COW
with tuberculosis may be present in a
herd for months before it's condition
is detected. Even then 1t may need
an examination by a skilled veterina-
rian to accurately diagnose the disease.
Yet all that time the COW will have
been yielding milk fairly filed with
the germs of tuberculosis.
Local regulations in some districts
order what is called the tuberculin
test for the presence of tuberculosis.
This is done by injecting some tuber-
eulin under the skin of the suspected
animal. If it has tuberculosis, big
Jumps will appear in what in man
would be called the armpits Under
the same purely local regulations such
animals can be ordered to be killed,
but these regulations are by no means
general.
1t is against dangers Of this kind and
infection of this nature that the new
machine will find its chief use Milk
is an animal product and as such is
subject to contamination by the germs
of all the diseases to which the animal
which yields it is subject Cows can
and do-suffer from cancer, eonsump-
ton, tumors, abcesses and many other
troubles. 1t is not nice to think of the
germs of these things getting into milk
used for drinking or food, but they do
get there in shoals.

The marked revival of interest In
cattle breeding has set afioat a number
of inquiries as to whether cattle graded
up by successive crosses of pedigreed
bulls can be made eligible to herd
book registration. says The Breeders
Gazette. These questions are answer
ed In the negative. No herdbook ac-
cepts for record animals that are grad
ed up from unregistered cows. All ami.
mails registered must trace to recorded
stock through both parents. Some
studbooks accept horses that have
four or five top crosses of registered
sires, but herdbooks are closed to ali
animals that do not descend on both
sides from ancestors already on record
Five crosses of pure blood practically
eliminate all alien blood and establish
the type, but breeders maintain that
the "taint" yet remains, however small
the percentage of scrub" blood may
be, and hence refuse herdbook record
to animals thus bred.

!, NEW MACHINE SAID TO Ex-
TRACT GERMS BY CEN
TRIFUGAL FORCE.
Observation-Disclosures

&OHC@ONO&C~O%~O ~C~O$O~O~O%
A new machine for the publication
Of milk invented by j. l.. Bergh does
not depend upon either heat or filtra-
ton for its work. 1t is not separa-
tor. It utilities the marvellous power
latent in centrifugal force. Reduced to
its simplest terms, according to the
New York Journal, this is the way the
machine works. The milk is allowed TO
fall into vessel that is revolving at a
tremendous rate of speed. So great is
the speed and so powerful the pressure
that the stream of milk rises up the
sides of the vessel in whirling waves
and issues from the turmoil almost at
the same spot at which it entered the
vessel.
By the power of centrifugal force all
the impurities, all the microbes and all
the germs are precipitated to the bot
tom and held there by the same re-
markable force that keeps water In a
pail when it is swung in circles over a
mans head.
The most extraordinary thing, how
ever, is that the. globules of fat and
cream are not separated from the milk
by the force to which the liquid is ex-
posed.
| When the milk issues from the Bergh
machine, 1t is just as good for the pur-
poses of the butter maker or the cheese
manufacturer as it was before 1t went
in. 1t is even better-so dairymen say
for there are apt to be germs in milk
that will prevent its being used for
cheesemaking. The machine removes
these. Another gain is that milk that
has been cleared of microbes by CEN
trifugal force will keep just twice as
long as that which has not been treat
/ ed.
AS far as taste goes there is little
difference between the milk after 1t
has been treated and before. 1t seems
to be a little more sugary, but it loses
nothing in actual taste. 1t is peculiar,
however, that milk that possessed a
decided odor before it went into the
machine will come out free from smell.
