Feed the cows and heifers very light
ly before calving; it reduces the tend
ency toward milk fever.
Let t%wenty-four hours pass after par
t%urition before feeding grain. and then
feed only a very limited quantity. Give
the COW all the tepid water she will
drink, and keep her away from
draughts.
A GARY heifer should drop her first
calf when two years old.
The heifers should always be MIXED
II months; IL is better. the idea is to
get them into the habit of milking Tor
long periods.
Milk and feed regularly at as near IL
hour intervals as possible.
A good ration for dairy cows consists
of bran, shorts and chopped oats, one
third OF each by weight.
Feeding by weight is always advis-
able, never by measure. The reason
for this is that in mixing feeds by meas

ing at the height of her productive
powers, she is getting enough feed. As
a rule the constant heavy eater is the
best producer.
Good feeding by no mean implies
the continual feeding of any particular
ration. Cows like variety, therefore
vary the ration as much as practic.

The persistent mixer always looks
thin. Do not fatten her by feeding
large quantities of corn or other fatten-
ing feeds. The feed troughs should be
kept clean and sweet; the feed should
not be allowed to collect on them, as
nothing else will put a COW off feed
quicker.
The COWS should be MIXED as quickly
and as dry as possible. If milk is left
in the udder of the COW it tends TO dry
up the flow.
A pair of scales and a Babcock tester
are the two best instruments with which
to weed the undesirable cows from the
herd:

The young people of the First Uni

for a social and dance to be given next

Bossy could not chew her cud. She
looked at US in puzzled and suffering
wonderment. We looked at her in dis
may. do you suppose" some one ven
tured, that Nels Larsen would know
what to do?" NeIs came and saw and
conquered. He bore in his hand a salt
herring fresh from the brine. BOssy's
mouth was forced open Nels thrust
the salt herring down her throat and
behold a miracle BOssy relieved, hap
py and ungTateful, looked with mild
reproach at the anxious assemblage
which continued 10 intrude on her pri-
vacy.
Rip-rip-ripping with little losses and
jerks of her head Bossy had gone up
and down the meadow browsing among
the lush grasses Without stopping to
more than roll it between her mOlars
she had gulped each juicy mouthful-
Nobody seems to have told Bossy that
one should chew their food thirty two
times before swallowing, and Nature,
when she created cows, was either alb
sent-minded or had run out of teeth,
for. they have none in the front of the
upper jaw Perhaps it was by way of
compensation that she gave them four
stomachs. AT any rate, whether from
ignorance or reliance on her ability to
take care Of 1t Bossy gulped her food.
It landed in the first stomach, called the
paunch or rumen Here it stayed quite
unchanged until feeling tired Bossy de-
cided to seek a shady corner to rest
and ruminte- By this 1 do not mean to
say that Bossy is of a reflective turn Of
mind; am merely saying in a learned
way that she was going to Chew her
cud." A small portion of the food
which had been so hastily disposed of
passed from the first into the second
stomach, which is called the net or re-
tiCulum. This is lined with cells re-
semblinc .h0neycOmb. These cells form
the food into little balls which, by an
effort Of the muscles, are thrown back
into the mouth. 1t is at this point, II
all goes WELL that Bossy chews her cud
After thorough mastication the food
Is once more swallowed and slipping
over the opening leading into the
paunch II passes into the third stom-
ach, called the psaIterium or psalm
book, because in construction it resem-
bles the leaves Of book. Other names
for this compartment are the manypIies
or the amOSuS. The last stomach be-
cause 1t leads from the omasus, is
called the abOm6 sum or more common
~ the red"
As l have TOLD you, something went
wrong with Bossy's digestive apparat-
US. and finding she could not ruminate
she wandered hOmeward seeking that
assistance which Larsen so promptly
provided, but which while IT worked
like a charm in this case I am not at all
prepared to offer as a specific.
Bossy is such a handsome, affection
ate creature. so useful to us in life, that
one really dislikes to think in her pres
ence how many things could be made
from her If she were dead. It seems the
depth of sordidness to remember that
she must eventually be sold TO the
butcher who will prepare her flesh for
the table that her hide will go to the
harnessmaker, the carriage builder, or
the shoemaker; that her hair Will be

mixed in the mortar for somebody's
house; that glue will be made from her
hOOfs; that portions of her intestineS
may contribute to some great expert
ment in chemistry; that our horn-han-
died knives may be a part of Bossy, or
that the charcoal from her bones may
at some future time be used by the
artist of our coterie.
We call her "BOssy." Everybody
calls his cow Bossy now and then and
without ever thinking that this caress-
ing name is probably a corruption of
the Latin word Bos, meaning OK.
You would laugh, 1 suppose, if I were
to tell you that all COWS receive a very
careful training in manners from their
bovine associates. When Bossy first
came into our barn yard she was put
through a course of treatment which
very closely Tesembled haZing. She had
always to walk last, she did not dare
go near q, food rack until her seniors
had begun their meal, if she showed
the least appearance of forwardness
she was butted and pushed until she
learned her true position. AS new calves
came into the yard Bossy was ad-
vanced by right of seniority and did
little training on her own account
Now, as senior COW of the herd she is
leader and maintains a strict authority
over the juniors She heads the pro-
cession from the pasture and decides
whether a banquet is for her alone or
to be shared by her interiors. Like all
COWS, she is sensitive and susceptible.
That lifting influenced a COW to let
down her milk more freely has been
generally regarded as a superstition
of the Scotch and Irish. Recent expe-
riments at agricultural stations in Eng
land have shown a positive foundation
for this belief
Bossy's relatives are many and dis
tinguished-the tiny black cows of
Kerry in Ireland, the great black cat
tie of Wales the taWny, fierce and
shaggy cattle OF the Highlands, who
wear their horns so reckleSsIy that one
knows they must be kin to the COW
with the crumpled horn who was
MIXED by the maiden all forlorn There
are Durhams and Galloways, AYrshires
Devons and Herefords-the Holsteins
Of the HOllandeTs; there are the wild
British cattle of Chillingham; the buff
faloes of the Russian emperor, last of
the European wild cattle; the bumped
zebu Of India and the Americon bison.
They are all Bovidae and their color
range is white, iron grey, dun, chest
nut red, blue-roan and black
Bossy came straight to us from that
little isle of the. sea which her race

ity of her breed has been so closely

penalty for anyone importing an infer
