Look after the water supply.
The dairy cows first and greatest
need is good, pure water in quanti-
ties to supply her every need.
Where there is no permanent orrun
ming water, and dependence is
placed on springs, pools and ponds,
these should be looked alter in sea-
son and before the water supply
runs low TO produce milk on a
scant supply of water is one thing
the cow cannot do. 1t is foolish to
expect it from her. Water comes
high where the cows must be driven
to water any distance. Driving
mich cows to water as far as two
miles or more is case of dire me-
cessity. Between heat and flies,
enforced exercise and suffering
from thirst, profit becomes minus
quantity. The effort to provide
water at homr will be found to pay
heavily.
