Drying on Cows and Ca'vlng Time
IL Is not unusual to find a COW
which shows no inclination to dry of

Or second calf. Such an animal shows
AN excellent dairy trait-persistence in
the milking habit-but it is doubtful
II continuous milking is profitable.
Better results are believed to be OBJ
taihed from cows which are inclined
TO take an annual rest, il not too long.
A month is long enough; three weeks

should be the longest time encouraged
or allowed for a COW to be dry before
carving. An accurate record of serv-
ICE by the bull is essential to prepara-
IONS for drying off COWS at the right
tlme. A table should be kept of the

"hen time comes for drying off

milk to cease forming. II not, omit
one milking a day, then milk but once
IN TWO days, and thus extend the dry

Chaplain.s Prayer Causes Commotion.

Quite commotion has been aroused
in the Nebraska legislature by a
prayer uttered by the chaplain in the
house Of representatives. It was in the
wise: 20 Lord. we thank thee that the
members of the legislature can come
and go between their homes and their
legislative halls with such ease and
such little expense to themselves"
This cut at the solons who travel on
railroad passes has reused great in

uncomfortable frame of mind.

An Australian paper says that the
farmers of Australia generally are
ready to accept a system of govern
ment grading of butter such as is now
being used in New Zealand and Victo-
ria, In Australia. We believe this will
be the ultimate conclusion arrived at
by most OF the farmers and dairymen
that export butter, whether in the
united States or in other countries.
Governments must protect the trade
that has been built up or is to be built
up IN dairy products. Every nation
mat has become a great and successful
exporter OF such products has had a
sort OF government supervision over
the goods sent out Some of our lead
Ing dairy experts and writer's have
urged the establishing in the great
butter buying centers in this country
or places where the butter shall be
scored and tested. When we come to
That point We may hope not only to
secure more foreign trade for dairy
products, but may hope for an enlarge
ment at home.
1t is evident that in no nation has
butter making been reduced to a sci
ence. Everywhere we find the meth
DDS in use very primitive, the best
processes being only in the hands of
men that are few in number. For ex-
ample, we quote the remarks of a
Russian paper on the methods of but
ter-making in that country: If. we
wish to come out winners in this
peaceable competition we must do
away with our old-fashioned dairy
ways, accompanied as they are with
intolerable dirt everywhere and in
everything, with miserable appliances
with perfect ignorance of the simplest
manufacturing axioms, and with ran
dom and hand-to-mouth habits" A
British consular agent in Siberia saws
that the dairy papers in that country
contain similar articles. And we must
acknowledge that We read parallel ar
ticles in almost every dairy paner
that comes to us, whether from Ans.
tralla, Ireland, France, Canada or the
united States. 1t shows that had
methods are not confined to anv ono
country or any one race of men.

first three days they ate it readily, and
after that It was with difficulty that
they could be induced to eat any.
On the fifth day one OF the horses
had slight salvation, occasional colicy
pains, and diarrhoea. On the seventh
day there was some incoordination of
movement and stupor. For two days
the animal would stand part of the
time with the head pressed against the
wall, and then quick recovery followed.
The second horse showed some irrita-
ton Of the mucous membranes of the
mouth. but never developed any nerv-
GUS symptoms. The horse was killed
but a post-mortem examination failed
to show any LESSONS The two horses
ate together about four bushels OF
spoiled corn, most of it being consumed
during the first week. After the first
week the corn had to be mixed with
other feed in every conceivable man
ner in order to induce the horses to eat
any OF 1t.
In none Of the tests was cerebro-
spinal meningitis induced by the moldy
grain. The deduction drawn by the
station from the investigations fol-
low:
The results of the experiment show
that NEGOTIATIONS with cultures of the
bacteria and molds were Ineffective
Eating Of the mashes containing pure
cultures showed that only in the case
OF growth Of a species of fusarium
did any Intestinal disturbance follow,
and that in one case the feeding of the
rotted grain produced considerable in
testinal disturbance and some nervous
symptoms, but that the disturbance
was light in the other.
1t appears, therefore, that while
many of the cases of sickness in stock
attributed to eating moldy corn are
due to other causes, the continued use
OF such food may result in intestinal
and nervous disorders of a serious ma
ture.-C f. Langworthy.
