stone and Brick silos.

Stone, brick or grout silos are usual
~ more expensive than wooden ones,
but in return they viii last longer when
carefully built says Professor Taylor
Of the New Hampshire station. The
walls should be at least sixteen inches
thick and should be jacketed with
wood on the outside to prevent injury
from frost and to form dead air spaces,
which win insure preservation of the
siIage clear to the wall. These silos
must be made smooth on the inside by
means of a heavy coat of a first cL.ss
cement Since the acid juices are apt
to gradually soften the cement, it may
be found necessary to protect the coat
ing by whitewash of pure cement
every other year before the silo is
filled. If this precaution is taken the
silo will last for generations. Some Of
the first silos built in this country have
been filed every year without deterio-
rating pereeptibly.

WATER FOR THE COWS.
The Amount lis Determined by Their
Size and Yield


How much water does a milk COW
need daily? The size nd yield of the
COW are tile main things that deter
mine this. The larger COW and the lar.
ger yieIder need more water than the
smaller cow and the smaller yielder.
says ]. L. Van Doren in New York
Farmer.
Ordinarily the small COW drinks from
six to eight gallons of water in twen-
ty-four hours. and the large cow drinks
from seven TO niue gallons There is
no fixed measure. as no two cows, even
of the same breed or of the same
weight or on the same rations of the
same feed and yielding practically the
same quantity of milk of the same
quality VIII drink exactly the same
quantity Of water.
have one small COW that seems to
be satisfied with five gallons of water
a day, while another one of her weight
takes seven gallons. A neighbor has
a large Holstein-F -F'riesian COW that
drinks over ten gallons a day and an
other quite as large that takes only
eight and L half gallons.
Ny experience is that the younger
cows require more water and that
there is Il decrease each year in the
water taken as the COW grows older
IN some cases even this does not hold
good A COW ont of sorts will drink
more or less as she is chilly or fever
ish
Indigestion, pasturage. changes in ra-
tion, irreguIarity in feeding and milk
ing and the amount of exercise are fac
tors that influence the drinking of the
milk COW. The character of the food
has much influence Dry foods call
for more water, Succulent food car
ries It's own water largely. The cow
on pasture needs less and drinks less
water than the COW on dry feed. In
providing a supply of water for a herd
| it is well to furnish the water and let
| the cows measure their drinks for
themselves. Then they will get the
proper amount at the proper time.
Running water and Individual drinking
vessels in the stalls will solve the prob
lem of water and drinking perfectly.

THE AUTHORITY OF LAW.

Two years ago a frontier fair was
held in Alberta, Canada. There We're
exhibits of live stock, farm products,
fruits. horse racing, shooting matches.
athletic sports Of all kinds and plenty
Of liquor to be had on the fair grounds.
The attendance was very cosmopolitan
in makeup. There were lumber jacks,
hunters and trappers, ranchmen and
cowboys, all the ragtag and bobtail of
humanity which hang on to the outer
fringe of settlement in new country.
In this country not all the constables,
marshals and sherifTs of a county
could have preserved the peace and
maintained order There the only eyi-
dence of police authority were two
mounted Canadian police, who rode
here and there among the crowd of
1000 people and whose presence in
sured the most perfect order. This in
cident illustrates the working of Eng
lish law, which is always enforced
whether or no, while in this country
just so much law is enforced as the
people want ana no more.

Hints Fer Milk Farmers

Do not use wooden pals. Discard all
rusty pals. cans or stirring utensils
Whey should be emptied as soon as it
arrives at the farm Milk cans and
pals should be washed with q brush
and lukewarm water, in which little
sal soda has been dissolved, then scald-
ed and placed on their sides in the
sun. Scour with salt occasionally. Do
not use cloth to either wash or wipe
utensils. American Cultivator.

Salt for butter should be of the very
best quality. When added to the but

The good dairy cow doesn't belong
to any breed exclusively, but is found
in all breeds, says W. A. Peterson in
Farm, Stock and Home The first
requisite of a dairy cow is large feed
ing powers. The more raw material
she can make use of, other things be-
ing equal, the better the COW. An ami
mails feeding capacity can be closely
ascertained by its conformation, it de-
pending largely upon the size of the

important point in determining the
size of the barrel is depth of body
through the middle; then come length
of body from shoulder to hook points
