Pays to Treat Them Well.

The writer Is persistent advocate
OF COW grooming and would as soon
think of letting the cows go without
a daily cleaning as the horses. Dur
ing the summer only brushing is done,
and this work is performed directly
after the milking; the cows are all the
better for it in every way. During the
winter the currycomb as well as the
brush is used on the cows.
We have found that the brushing re-
moves soil from the animal and ren.
ders her less liable to the attacks OF
flies. Then, we use one of the COM
merclal compounds to keep the flies
off. in addition to the brushing. The
result is that with plenty of good pas
ture. a stream of clear water, grove
of trees for shade and freedom from
flies the milk supply ia all that could
be desired. the cows are healthy and
happy and the dairy is profitable.
1t certainly pays to treat the cows
well and make them as comfortable as
possible. Another point in the breed
