BREAKING THE HEIFER.
Many Dairymen Dread This Opera
tiOn, and in Most Cases without
Reasonable Cause

We have broken several Jerseys and
have cows that apparently never knew
how to kick. writes G. c. lies, In the
Ohio Farmer.
In the first place, the heifer should
be perfectly tame; should never have
known fear of her owner; should be
accustomed to going into the stable.
We prefer the winter time, as she is
accustomed to being. in the stable
then. However, she should be tame
enough to go into it at any time with
out fear and anxiety regarding the
safety of the calf when we are around,
while If we came around her for the
first time after the calf is several
hours old she seems to think we want
to injure the calf. and she is fright
ened; and there are other reasons for
being with her at the time.
We never touch heifer's udder be-
fore she is fresh. In nearly every case
she will resent it with kick, and
once started to kicking she may keep
at it. We often read advice to ac-
custom the heifer to having her udder
handled before being fresh. We won
der II the author of such advice prac-
tices it. Il is contrary to nature for
heifer to allow her udder to be med
died with until the time comes for her
to be milked. The first time we touch
her udder is when the calf sucks the
first time. It Is natural for her to
want to be milked then. In a few
hours we separate the calf and heifer
and when we wish to milk her we turn
her with the calf and Let the calf suck
while we milk. We milk her in this
way few times. when we separate
them for good, and we seldom have
any trouble afterward.
We are always very careful not to
hurt her In milking. There is a great
difference in the way different people
milk. Some squeeze the teats so
roughly and pull downward SO hard
that the COW kicks because she is hurt.
Avoid hurting your cow and she Will
not kick you. No heifer should be al
lowed to be fresh without having been
fed and prepared for the occasion.
This is especially so if she is on dry
feed. Linseed oil meal fed with other
grain feed and clover hay will make
her in good condition for calving.

Some one who claims to know says
that of about 600 varieties eff weeds
that are common in our fields, sheep
are known to eat 515 varieties, while
horses, cattle and hogs eat but few
each. Commenting on this statement
The American Cultivator says: eff we
do not vouch for this as being exactly
correct. we know that sheep destroy
many weeds that our other farm ami
mails do not care for or will not eat un-
less starved to it, and this IS why we
claim that from four to six sheep can
be kept in pasture with each cow,
and they will eat what the COW leaves,
and by the destruction of weeds and
the fertilizer they leave in the field, will
enable the pasture TO furnish better
feed for the COWS than they would have
if the sheep were not there, at least
after the sheep have run with them
one year.

Kid Mccoy, the famous pugilist. who
gave such a wonderful exhibition of game
ness in his six-round contest with Kid
Garter at Philadelphia Monday night left
that city hastily for New York yesterday
morning to have a specialist attend to his
arm, which was probably broken during
the bout. After leaving the hall on Mon
day night Mccoy went to a Turkish bath
in company with Jack O'Brien. The Kid
suffered intense pain from his right arm
but thought it was only bruise. AS the
member began troubling him, he asked one
of the rubbers to examine it, and the latter
at once said it was broken and advised the
fighter to go to the hospital and have one
of the surgeons examine him.
Hastily dress ng, Mccoy and O'Bpien
hurried to the hospital. where the ply
stefan. after an examination, was unable
to determine whether or not the arm was
broken, but was certain that it was badly
confused. He advised Mccoy to wait until
noon and allow the use of the X-ray Me-
Coy said he had to be in New York, and
asked that the arm be bandaged. As soon
as this was done Mccoy took train for

Catcher Clarke Once More a Senator

After yesterdays defeat. Captain Dele

lengthy conference at the club house and
the former convinced the latter that
Catcher Bill Clarke was a necessity Mr.
Lbftus was obdurate for quite a while
but Delehanty brought him around to his
way of thinking and telephone communi-
cation was at once secured with the Bal
timore boy. Delehanty explained the sit
uation to Clarke and the latter was not
slow In reaching the conclusion that Wash
lngton was good enough for him. Captain
Delehanty realized yesterday that a sea-
soned catcher was necessity and although
Clarke had acted with indifference toward
the Washington club it was a case of mot
what you have been, but what you are to-
day." The Washington enthusiasts care
very little about the controversy between
Manager LOTUS and Clarke. but want the
Senators to win and the player. who has
always been popular here. will be given a
cordial welcome. Captain Delehanty dis
played his shrewdness in getting Clarke
to rejoin the team and deserves lots of
credit for the move.

Dixieline Defeated Heno by Short
Head.

Strive as he might, with all his nervous
force strained to the utmost to beat the
lightly weighted Dixieline. Heno was de-
feated in the Pocantico handicap at Morris
Park yesterday.
1t was his first defeat of the season. AL
though beaten, he was not disgraced. and
he carried off the honors Of the contest, IL
not the money. Lack of condition and ten
pounds difference in weights proved too
much for him. and Dixieline got the deci-
sion by a head.
Clarence Mackay's great three-year- old
demonstrated that he is an exceptionally
game and high-class colt. 1t was prac-
tlcally his first race Of the year-he won
one on May 13 from a poor field which
was not beneficial to his physical condition
and to run as he did up the hill, with 1875
pounds on his back, was little short of ex-
traordinary.
The race was one of the fastest that has
been run since the distance was changed

practically equals, if it does not excel, that

the end the contest narrowed down to
case of judgment and it seemed to be the
general opinion that Capt Delehanty erred
in taking Townsend out of the box to
enable Orth to bat in his place in the eighth
inning.
Up to that time Townsend was doing as
well if not better than McGinnity, and the
latter showed signs of distress. while the
former got better as the game drew to
close. in that inning Delehanty had reach
ed first by hit to Gilbert. which the latter
cleverly felded, but too late to retire the
