1t is a sad fact that SO many farm
ers consider the difference in value be-
tween q good COW and poor cow to
be merely the difference in purchasing
price. when as a matter of fact it is
the difference between profit and loss,
writes a Pennsylvania correspondent
of Hoard's Dairyman.
In the locality of the writer cow
which sells for $50 when fresh is about
the best COW the farmer has and pro-
duces not far from 5000 pounds OF
milk annually. Another cow equally
healthy in body and good in DISPOSE
ton, which sells for $50, yields about
5000 pounds of milk annually.
Investigators of the subject are al
most unanimous in the assertion that
5000 pounds of milk are required to
pay the keep Of a cow for one year. 1t
is usually conceded also that the length
of q cows usefulness is ten years.
In this length of time the $50 COW
should just about pay for her keep,
but leave nothing to her owner as prof
it. In the same length of time our $50
cow should produce $4,000 pounds of
milk. Taking from this amount $4,000
pounds to pay her keep, there are left
10000 pounds above her expense,
which in the creameries should bring
at least cent per pound, thus giving a
profit of $500 in ten years, or the time
of the cows usefulness.
Can it not be said, then, with some
degree Of accuracy that the difference
in value between the $50 and the $50
COW is nearly $500.
1t is not to be understood from
these figures that one should pay $500
for the 5000 pound cow any more than
$50 should be paid for the 5000 pound
COW. Either, however, would be about
as sensible as the other. 1t is intended
to mean that the cow which yields
only 5000 pounds of milk annually
should never be purchased nor used for
dairy purposes and that considerably
more than $50 is not an eXtravagant
price to pay for a grade cow yielding
annually 5000 pounds of milk.
Improving the Cows.
When farmers began to select their
bulls from pure bred herds possessing
these great dairy values, letting the
beef question and all side issues take
care of themselves, they began to es-
tablish improved machinery in the
shape of dairy cows

Milk Thoroughly.

1t is important that the cows should
be thoroughly MIXED. as the last
drawn milk being richer in fat than
that which is first drawn it is obvious
that the quality is affected if the cows
are not MIXED clearly Cows with I'M
developed front quarters usually give
milk of lower quality from those
quarters, besides less quantity

Prairie Farmer. If his breath is con-
taminated with tobacco the milk can
not entirely escape contamination, and
if his hands are soiled the milk must
be dirty.

Silage and the Silo

have not known of instances where
cabbage has been put into silOS, but in
asmuch as cabbage is very prone to
rot when massed together | should eX-
pect great lot of foul, rotton ma
terial to be taken from the silO, says
Professor Stone of Cornell university
in Rural New Yorker. Of course we
are familiar with the process of kraut
making, in which case the material is
we'll preserved, but in the making Of
kraut the mass is pounded and COM
pacted until the juice of the cabbage
is started in such a way as to fill the
interstices between the particles of
cabbage and thoroughly to drive out
the air, so that the fermentation does
not proceed very far before all the air
is consumed 1t would be impossible,
think, to compact the mass of cab
bage in a silo sufficiently to produce
this result.
SiIage a HeaIthfuI Feed.
Many attempts have been made by
ignorant persons to discredit with con-
sumers the milk made from ensilage
II Is Il great W Tic pIOuuCCl,
as it tends to debar him from the use
of one of the best forms of feed for
milk production. It has been amply
demonstrated that good ensilage prop
erly fed imparts no injurious effect to
the milk Silage is one of the most
healthful foods that can be used dur
ing the winter, when otherwise the
COW would be on dry feed, and there is
no question but that the most healthy
cow will give the most healthful milk.
A SiIage Ration.
At the Wisconsin station the average
amount of grain fed to the dairy cow
is about eight pounds per day. This,
with forty pounds of silage, and six
pounds of hay, constitutes days ra-
ton for the average COW during the
winter. though this amount varies con-
siderably.
Shredded Slower In the SiIO.
The evidence of practical experience
is accommodating that we can run the
mature dry corn through the husker
and shredder and by using sufficient
ing it into the silo it will cure into very
good soft sweet feed. says l.. w.
Lightly in National Stockman. When it
is desirable to separate the ear from
the plant this method is certainly pref
cradle to putting the shredded slower
in a NOW and allowing it to mold and
firefang as it generally does.
SiIage GOOD Roughage.
Professor d. w May of the Ken
lucky experiment station in recent
bulletin ON the feeding of dairy cows
says good roughness is essential in
dairying, and the more profitable these
feeds may be the more of the higher
priced. grain replaced. Of our coarse
feeds grass. corn, silage, alfalfa and
clover hay rank high.

YALE WINS VARSITY
RACE ON The THAMES.

THE VARSITY RACE.

Again Yale took the premier event In
the big varsity race the Yale men crossed
the line winners by seven lengths The
time was Yale. 21;i1Ib: Harvard. 22:07.
Throughout the race the Ellis were
never headed and from the crack Of the
pistol the result was never in doubt. II
was case OF superiority I'm rowing
strength and rowing fundamentals. With
in quarter OF mile from the start
Yale had established herself in a COM
Portable position, a length ahead.
This had been accomplished In spite OF
the fact that Harvard was fully two more
strokes TO the minute than Yale. The
New Haven oarsm.n increased their lead
steadily until 2M miles had been trav-
elled. Then their shell suffered from the
eel grass section OF the course. Har-
ward pulled UP one length, but when the
Yale shell reached clear water again
the superiority Of the blue became more
thsn ever evident
Gradually the contest became n pro-
cesison and Yale's victory was as deci-
siye as the most ardent. OF her support
ers could wish.
The official time OF the Varsity four
oar race was:
Half mile, Yale 2:40; Harvard 2:A.
one mile, Yale 5:45; Harvard $3.50.
Mile and half Yale SAP: Harvard $3.50.
TWO miles, Harvard lz.Ls 1hle LID.
YALE GETS LEAD.
In the Varsity race Yale got the lead
almost at the start by running her stroke
up far above her normal gait and then
steadily increased the lead every half
mile with the single exception OF the Sec
ond half mile On this half mile OF the
race Harvard cut Yale's lead down by
lust one-half second. Yale's lead In the
race for each half hile was as follows:
At tho end of the first half mile, Yale
was leading by six seconds, second half
mile, by bik seconds; third half mile by
nine seconds: fourth half mile by IL; NTH
by l3
AT the sixth by IS: at the seventh by
%. and al the end Of the eighth half-mile
by 29ls seconds.
The two varsity eights rowed a fault
less race. There was not single mis-
hap IN either boat. Yale simply had the
better crew. The Ellis a week ego rowed
over the course a few minutes after Har-
ward and on that day Yale beat Har-
wards time ny Just 81 seconds. Today's
race demonstrated that there is just
about half a minutes difference In the
speed OF their two crews for four miles
