STOCK AND DAIRY NOTES.

For hog pastures woven wire is the
best fencing material.
For the first few days newly purchased
hogs should be fed lightly.
No man should attempt to raise hogs
without adequate fencing of yards and
pastures.
The portable hog house is coming into
very general favor, especially in disease
infested districts.
Sweet cream butter is coming much
INTO use in this country. This kind Of
butter is not made, as might be supposed
from the name, from cream from sweet
milk, but is generally made of ripened
cream. 1t is called sweet because it is
not sailed.
A COW must be very poor mixer
not to respond to good feed and good
care. Good feeding can greatly increase
the milk-producing powers of the cows
we have, but only to the limit of their
natural capacity Many of our COWS are
being fed so unscientifically that they
have never been brought up to their full
apacity.-Farmers' Review.

EFFECT OF SOIL ON MILK.
English Scientist Advances a New
Theory Which May Be Worth
Thinking About.

The surprising assertion is made by
an English scientist that the class OF soil
on which the hay or pasture grass is
grown controls to a large extent the
quality of the milk. Americans will be
slow in accepting the statements in be-
half of such doctrine. 1t will do no
harm, however. to note the points that
the said scientist thinks he brings ont
He claims, !n the first place, that milk
from grass grown on a limestone soil
will be richer than en- clay soil, even
though all treatment OF the COWS is the
same. But we have frequently noted
that the English still have the idea that
the richness of the milk continually va
ries according to the richness of the feed.
This idea is being constantly brought out
IN one way and another there, the local
judges even letting off the milkmen that
sell milk below the required percentage
of solids, the milk producers having
made the plea that the feed was poor in
quality.
Again, the man referred to declares
that milk made on limestone soil will
keep so per cent longer than that made
on clay soils, other things being equal.
fie asserts that in the making of cheese
che milk has to be scalded at not less
than los degrees if it is made on CLAW.
while If it is made on limestone soil the
scalding can be done ct 40 degrees. He

FATHERS MIXED TIE COW.
Which Surprised Him and His
Neighbors as Well.

Simeon Johnson, a farmer of Tyson,
VT, made a discovery recently which
so surprised him that he has spread the
marvellous tale from one end of the
county TO the other.
For several months Sim has known
that some one or something has been
stealing milk from his pet Jersey COW.
His good wife told him that the Jersey
had simply dried up and that he was
afflicted with a spell of Imagination. ="
Sim, however declared that he knew
that he knew. and sat up nights to dis
cover the thief But he saw no invaders,
and the more sleep he lost the madden
he got
me Jersey was one of herd of 90
and as her milk was richer than that Of
the others the supply was saved for fam
lily use. She was quartered in a stall
at the end of the COW stable and until
three months ago gave four quarts
morning and night. Then she suddenly
cut down her morning quota to little
or nothing. Sim would have agreed
with his wife if Bess hadn't furnished
the usual amount at night and seemed
ravenously hungry.
1t made no difference whether Sim
watched or not; the milk was always
gone in the morning. although it was
several times established that at mid
night the supply was normal. 1t was
this fact more than anything else that
bothered Sim and gave him creepy and
uncanny sensations when he kept his
vigils by the dim. uncertain light of an
EnrnCnfna 10 nj
ure out why Bess should not give milk
in the morning when there was plenty at
midnight. or why she should be well
supplied at night and not at the early
milking.
L don't believe there Is anything
milkin' that cow" said Mrs. Johnson
one day recently, ''but if there is it
crawls, and you won't catch it unless
you clean out the bedding so YOU can
see the stall floor"
Sim allowed there might be some-
thing in this. and so he swept out the
stall and made Bess lie on the blanks
instead of on 2 fine bed of clean straw.
About nine o'clock he got his lantern
and once more took up his post of vigil.
He had beeun to doze when he heard
Bess shift her position and he held up
the light. He was Just in time to see a
long. glistening. sinuous form slim from
under the side Of the reclining COW and
glide down a rat-hole in the corner Of
the stall. At the same time he heard a
familiar sound that caused his hair to
stand on end.
'Rattlesnakes." he gurgled, and
grabbed a pitch fork.
Bess jumped to her feet and mooed
contentedly as the farmer advanced
cautiously and began a careful investi-
cation. There was but one rat-hole.
This led to pi'e of rocks under the
barn. and Sim retired to the house. In
the morning. with the help of the hired
man. the rocks were removed. and five
rattlers. each three times its natural
size, were killed. According 10 the

When Milk Cans Get Rusty

Don't keep throwing away money
patching rusty milk-cans, when at best
hey will last but little longer; such a
practice is decidedly disastrous to the
quality of the milk. Throw them away
Ind get some good, new cans, well timed
Always empty them as soon as they re-
turn from the creamery; wipe dry after
washing and give them a daily sun bath
Given this treatment, a good can ought
TO last seven or eight years.-Midland
