We often hear of the model diaries
Of Europe, cooperative dairies into
which a speck of dirt is never allowed
to lodge, OF Danish butter that is IN
truth a dream and brings fabulous
price, of eggs guaranteed fresh and
country-like, and other reports OF the
way they do things on the fine old
farms of Europe until one begins TO
think that one can not be more than
half living in this country. But how
much of this sort of thing will bear
investigation and close analysis?
The Dairy Division of the United
Safes Department of Agriculture is a
progressive and useful institution and
has done several things to destroy
prevailing fallacies and incidentally
establish the fact that American meth
DDS as whole, in at least some phases
of agriculture, are as far if not farther
advanced than those OF any other coun-
try.
Not the least interesting of such in
formation gathered was that collected
by the late Henry E Alvord. for many
years the chief of the Dairy Division,
in a tour of the countries of Europe

stereotyped answer:-"My father did
So"
The American farmer, Major Alvord
thought, has undoubtedly a much more
intelligent knowledge of the principles
of feeding, but there is probably more
carelessness and waste in feeding ami
mails of all kinds in America than any
where else in the world.
The most astonishing feature of Eu-
rope in the care of milk on the farm is
the entire absence of refrigeration in
France, and the general ignoring of
the value of cold in dairying. In the
matter Of dairy appliances and equip
ment, the United States is surpassed
by no other country, although Den
mark and parts of Great Britain stand
about as we'll.
In most big cities Of Europe there
are few well-conducted milk delivery
establishments, such as are usually
found in our smallest cities, while in
some localities dairy animals are
driven through the streets and MIXED
at customers doors. Mich cows are
managed in the same way even in the
best streets of Paris and of Rome.
Paris probably has the poorest milk
service Of any of the large cities. Dur
ing the Exposition at Paris in July,
1900, special show of perishable dairy
products was held as an annex to that
exposition.
Paris Milk Exhibit Very Poor.
While the French producers had
every opportunity of exhibiting their
goods in the best possible shape, the
only samples Of natural milk and
cream, absolutely free from chemical
preservatives and uncooked, which
were sweet and palatable after noon
OF the exhibition day. were from the
dairies in New York and New Jersey,
then eighteen days from the COW! The
American products had been preserved
solely by cleanliness and cold. Major
Alvord made the statement on his re
turn from Europe that no milk-supply
company in Europe could duplicate this
performance.

Brittany, in the north of France, has
within its borders pretty, active little
black-and-white cattle with marked
dairy characteristics, producing often
an astounding quantity of milk for
their size, but they are believed to be
useful in the United States only as
playthings.
America an Cow Stables Up to Average
In the stabling and general care Of
dairy cows no foreign country shows,
in general practice, any methods or
conditions better than our own. While
the average conditions throughout the
country are undoubtedly far from
what they should be, the United States

for the purpose of looking into the
dairy industry of the continent.
Major Alvord stated first. upon his
return home. that while the United
States has never evolved a strictly
dairy COW OF its own, it has now moth
ing to gain through the importation
of new blood from Great Britain, the
Channel Islands, the Netherlands, Den
mark or France There are many pic
turesque and useful breeds Of milch
cattle in these countries but they do
not compare, he stated, with the adapt
ed American breeds. For instance,
The Greeley tribune., 1905-11-09

conditions do exist abroad-where the
COW is taken in as q member OF the
family-as they do in no place in the
United States, but they are the excep-
ton. Stables which in summer are
converted into conservatories and
rooms for weaving and cheese curing
are the unusual and show places. The
construction of COW stables generally in
the dairy countries of the Old World
is of substantial nature, with little
regard paid to light and ventilation,

anywhere.
Major Alvord found comparatively
few places in Holland and Switzerland
where there is such close relationship
between the dairy cows and families
as the occupancy OF connecting apart
