The Importance Of this is shown b.

or: The nth, 18th and 10Th days Of
November, 1900, were rainy days.
From the day before to the day aft
er the rains the amount Of milk de-
liyered at the creameries fell off ten
per cent, In the same time the milk
from our own herd decreased 81 per

then took the COWS a month 20 get
back to where they were before the

sugar beets in addition TO their jas

four cows having pasture alone fell

fell of only 20 per cent. Here is

WATERING MILK COWS.
Kept Construction of n water
System Is Advisable.

We sometimes water our cows in the
stables, and find it a great gain over
turning them out to drink at the
spring. We never allow our milch
COWS to drink out of brook, as it is
unreasonable to expect a cow to do her
best II compelled to gorge herself
with ice cold water. In the fall and
early winter, when we have only few
of our cows calved we always like to
take the chill off the water they drink
and give 1t TO them in the stable; we
notice a very marked improvement
over turning them out. OF course,
where there is a large herd it would
not pay to water them in the stable
without one had the water right in the
barn We water twice a day, and it is
surprising how much they will drink,
especially if some feed -four is stirred
in IT, 4 COW has no filter in her, and if
the water is impure all the impurities
will go to the milk. Some of our "big"
farmers may cry 'egotist" when they
see this, but I am in fair position to
know, as for the last two months ]
have weighed every pound of feed our
COWS consumed. Also in the stable the
milk Of each cow was weighed sepa-
rately and a record kept. From this
we could plainly sc that the day the
cows we're turned out to drink. il let
for any length Of time, there was al
ways a shrinkage in the milking. If
the change was noticeable in our
mild December weather, what must
II be when the mercury is lowering
about the cipher!
Where there is a winter dairy of
eight or ten cows it would pay to have
a good water system, so as to water
orr cows in the stable in cold weather.
Also induce them to drink as much as
possible, for when we consider that
milk contains over so per cent. Of wa
ter. it is evident that our cows should
have lots of good, pure water.-D. r.
Nicholson, in Maritime Farmer.

One would naturally think that the pack
age dye business was a small industry, but
there is more than one million dollars worth
of package dyes sold in the United States
every year.
One Of the largest package dye factories
in the world is that of the Putnam Faaeless
Dyes Co., Unionyille, Ne. In this factory
alone, three million packages Of Putnam
Fadeless Dyes are made every year. To
put up this amount Of dyes requires the
handling Of seven million Of envelopes, think

The quantity of cheese exported
from the United States in 1901
showed a decrease as compared with
like exports in 1870, of over 30 per
cent; the quantity exported from
Canada, on the other hand showed
the remarkable increase, as compared
with 1870, of over 1900 per cent.
Moreover, the conditions of the ex-
port trade in this product in the

The poor farmer sticks to the poor
COW and imagines that he is making
money out of her. Fortunately for
that kind of COW, the said kind of
farmer has a strong imagination-one
that does not have to have facts to build
upon. If the farmer got to demanding
proofs of the value of his poor COW,
it would be the end Of the COW. 1t is a
pity that more farmers are not of a
judicial turn of mird. If about half of
the cows of the country were turned
into COW beef it would be better for
the farmers.-Farmers' Review.

HOW TO FEED cows.
Substance of Valuable Bulletin Is-
sued by the California state
Experiment station.

The COW requires not only materials
for her maintenance. but must also
have protein and carbohydrates to
make milk from. The milk contains
water, fat, protein (casein or curd),
sugar and ash, and these are all made
from the constituents Of the food. II
insufficient protein, fat and carbohy-
drates are contained in the food given
her. the COW supplies the deficiency for
a time by drawing on her own body,
and gradually shrinks in quantity and
quality of milk. or both. The stingy
feeder cheats himself as well as the
COW. She suffers from hunger. al

but she also becomes poor and does
not yield the milk and butter she
should. Fer milk glands are wonder
