GOOD AND BAD MIXERS,
SiOnnI Tests of the MIX from
All Their Cows

AZ a milking trial held in connection
with one of the recent summer shows
in England the COW which was awarded
the first prize produced over six gal
Ions of milk in the day, and her milk
was so rich in quality that il produced
over four pounds of butter. At the
ame show there We're on exhibition
other cows of the same breed and
practically the same size and weight
which produced only two to three gal
Ions of milk and barely one pound Of
butter. II would be mistake NJ sup
pose that ,he feeding of one of the
last-named would cost as much as the
six-gallon COW, because. as rule. the
better mixer a COW is the more food
Will she consume. II is only natural
that cow yielding six gallons of
milk should require II much more lib
eral food ration than one producing
less than half that quantity. The diff
ference in the cost of feeding the COWS
in question would not, however. be
anything like SO marked as their rcla-
tive milk yields wonld suggest. In
practice it is found that cows pro-
ducing only w gallons to two gallons
that is. six to eightGuarts-per day
cost rs much to keep as those yielding
double that quantity. 1t is only when
calculations of this kind are gone into
that the difference between good and
Dad mixers can he properly estimated.
AT least occasional tests should he
made of the milk which all the COWS in
the herd are producing, and similar
test should be made of the food which
they are consuming, and if it is found.
AS 1t is to be feared will he only too
frequently the case. that the animals
are not giving n sufficient return for
the cost of the food which they are
disposing of, they should be got rid of
at the first opportunity and their
places filled by others capable of Civ
ing better return for the food

Neufchatel Cheese Making.

Neufchatel is soft, white, and, as
generally eaten, entirely uncured
cheese, resembling in name only the
celebrated Neufchatel cheese of Swift
erland. Very briefly and exactly we
may define ita unskimmed milk, coag-
ulated with rennet, allowed to stand
until sour, the surplus whey removed
by drainage and pressure, after which
the resulting curd is saltsd to taste and
nodded into the familiar little cylin-
ders of the stores. This is an out
line of the process, but the questions
of ripeness of milk, amount of rcnnet.
length of time il stands before drain
ing and the pressure to be applied are
not easily explained on paper, and they
constitute the art of Neufchatel maxi
ing.

A Brown county, Kansas, girl
loved young man some and his tiriv-
ing horse more. She was engaged to
him, but when he sold the horse she
stoutly declared that he would have
to get the animal back or hunt an
other wife. The young man offered
the purchaser of the horse a bonus
of $50 to trade back, but the latter
refused. and the young man, in ex-
treme distress, told the story OF his
love and his plight. The purchaser
melted and gave up the horse and the
announcement of marriage is soon
to be published in Brown county.

WATER AFFECTS MILK.
Cows Drink from . StaHnant
Pool Commits a Crime.

We hear some things that we find
hard to believe in the way Of the treat
ment of dairy cows. One Of these
things is that there are here and there
pastures in which the only watering
place is stagnant pond full of in
sects and Shiny grasses. 1t is a won
der that cows can drink such stuff and
still remain healthy, but it is certain
that they take chances on acquiring
some one of the water-borne diseases
common to stock. No human being
should be asked to drink milk made
out of such water, even after il has
been strained through the COW. Ii is
claimed that other owners are known
to water their COWS out of rain water
barrels. Well, that is only slight
improvement over the stagnant pond
method. The water in the rain water
barrel soon takes on a smell that is
disagreeable to man and beast. Why
can't our cows have at least pure
water to drink? Water, pure and
sparkling. enters very largely into the
life of every being. Let us he sure
that the milk we drink is made from
water and food absolutely pure

II is said that Niagara Falls looks
like a veritable midway. There are
fakirs and side shows of every kind
and description, from the bearded
lady to the three-horned COW, that
have attracted the small boy and his
elders, too, for that matter, for many
years in the circus side shows. The
Buffalo exposition is, of course, the
cause of all this additional effort at
amusement, as it is calculated that
fully nine-tenths of the people that
visit the exposition during the sum.
