THE AGE OF LIMIT.
Good Dairy Cow Brings a Profit Up to
Twelve Years of Age.

Good dairy cows should not be "Os-
lerized" until they are at least IL
years old, and even after they have
reached that age some continue to
produce a large quantity of milk. The
production of milk depends largely on
the care that is taken of the animal
and her natural strength. Expert
ments have proven that the produc-
ton of milk and butter fat constantly
increases until a COW is six years of
age, when she should be at her prime
as a mixer. Heifers produce a some
what better quality of milk than older
cows, for the reason that as a COW be.
comes older she takes or weight, and
the amount of fat in the milk is cor
r~espondingly decreased. A consider
able portion of food is used by young
animals for the formation of body
tissue, and heifers therefore require
more nutriment for the production Of
milk than the older COWS, says the
Journal of Agriculture. After COWS
have reached the age of seven years
the amount of food required again in
creases. Unless the animals digestive
organs have become impaired by i'm
proper feeding, she should continue
to produce milk until IL years old.
although naturally the supply will be
considerably less than in her ounge
days.

Garden Notes.

Very little hand-hoeing is necessary
in a well-managed farmers garden.
The whole garden should not be
planted in one day, because the tenn
perature requirements of the various
crops are quite different.
Successive planting of the same va
riety of corn, or peas, or radishes, may
be made if that method of frightening
the season is adopted.
If this can be applied in the fall and
plowed under, the land can ordinarily
be fitted for the early planting by
simply discing, narrowing and plank.
ing.
If a wheel hoe is run close to the
row as soon as the plants appear
above the ground, and this treatment
Is repeated at frequent intervals, the
labor of handwriting will be greatly
reduced.
Some crops, like radishes, lettuce
and peas grow best in the, cool
weather of spring, and are uninjured
by frost; while others, like melons,
tomatoes and beans, require a much
higher temperature and are easily
killed by frost.

FEED IMPORTANT.
A Question Which Must Receive the
Thoughtful Care of the Dalryman.

Now, a word about feed. This is a
subject to which you will have to give
special and careful attention. You
must not only look to the needs of
your cattle, but you must endeavor to
get their rations as nearly as possible
from the products Of your own farm.
Economy is one of your watchwords.
But you must make it a study and 1t
will take you several years, says a
writer in Holstein-F riesian Register.
Look first to the needs of your
COWS, and next to the cost of the feed.
Your heifer calves should be fed
sweet skim milk for about six months,
and you can mix with 1t a little corn
meal and oil meal, or these a be
fed separately. After six months, if
on good pasture, they will require no
feed; but as fall comes on they
should not be allowed to run down
and become poor before winter feed
ing is begun. This feed should con-
sist of bran, shorts, oil meal, ETC.,
with fodder, hay and straw for rough
a6S. l WOulu lGOu no CUTu. n lew
weeks before your heifer is due with
her first calf you should begin feed
ing her a mixture of food rich in pro-
tein. Do not overfeed her, but grad
ually increase the feed until by the
time she drops her calf she will be
getting about all she wants to eat.
You will find that she has made a
very large udder and will start off
with a very large flow of milk.
For a few days after calving, feed
lightly, gradually increasing, and you
will find her responding well to your
attention. Keep her in milk for ten to
IL months. There is no danger from
milk fever with the first calf, but from
then on, and especially with the third
and fourth calves, you cannot feed so
heavily before calving, neither will
she require it,; for by this time the
habit of milk-giving will have been
we'll formed.

FEEDING FOR MILK.
Why One Man Went Into the Dairy
Business.

The first principle that caused me
to engage in dairying was the fact
that the same crops that cause a COW
to give a large flow of milk supplies
our soil with the most expensive III
gradients in a fertilizer, writes a col
respondent Of Farmers Guide. The
second bent in my dairy business was
that often raising a legume crop we
could, by feeding it to dairy cattle,
extract all the milk and butter and
yet return 80 per cent. Of its fertillz.
ing ingredients to the soil, and that
in its most available form Ga ton Of
butter carrying away only about 50
cents worth of plant food). The third
reason for turning to dairying was
that when properly used with other
feeds, skinned milk. would produce
young dairy stock of the highest DOS.
sible dairy value, even better than
whole milk.
The three prime factors on the
dairyman's bill of fare are alfalfa.
corn silage and blue grass, and you
need little other feed If you have
plenty of these. If l had any other 40
vice, ! would say, have plenty of al
falfa, as 1t is the best soiling crop
ever grown.

This simple homemade mixture will
force the Kidneys to normal, healthy

Reat Violin strlnna.

The best strings for violins are Of
Italian make and are from the intes-
tines of spring lambs, killed in Sep
TENDER. The process Of drying and
bleaching Of the woods and strings by
the hot Italian sun, rather than by
the artificial method used in other
countries, accounts in a great meas.
ure for the superior quality Of both
materials. This intense heat was also
thu reason for the slow distillation
Of the oils used by the Italian MAX
ers, which always remained at a high
temperature, and the varnish, slowly
soaking into the woods of the violins
beneath the heat of those Italian sum-
mers, produced, in part, the mellow
ness of tone that gives to a Cremona
instrument its value, after a lapse of
200 or more years.-March Circle.

Churnina Docs.

A curious point in regard to the new
dogs act occupied the attention of the
Carnorvan county bench on Saturday,
says the London Daily Mail. The SUI
p~erintendent reported that eight per-
sons had applied for exemptions in re-
spect of dogs which were used for
churning. Issard Davids inquired
whether it had not been decided that
to use dogs for such a purpose was
cruelty, but several Of his colleagues
replied in the negative. The bench
decided that the owners of the churn-
ing dogs must take out licenses.

One Way of Building a Cow Stall.

a good sized stake. If floor is made Of
plank, nail a block to floor then spike
the 2x4 to blocks.
The COW when eating will stand
with her hind feet just behind the 2x4,
leaving the droppings behind it.
When she lies down she will be
compelled to lie in front of the 2x4
with her head under the feed rack.
1t is not necessary to have a gutter
in a stall Of this kind. There should
be short partitions, however, to keep
the cows from turning around.
My stalls, writes an Indiana CORE
spondent of Prairie Farmer, are four
feet over all, but they can be less.
This way of ~stalling is better than
stanches-gives the animal more lib
erty and keeps them cleaner.

Cement Floor for Dairy Barns.

If there is anything on earth that
smells to heaven, it is the average
stable floor. The COW has to sleep
there, breathe there and be MIXED
there. That floor should be kept tidy,
clean and dry. 1t can never be kept
tidy with a plank floor. I am thor
oughly in favor of a cement floor in
the COW stable, writes a farmer in
Farm and Home. Some men have
said to me that a stone floor is too
cold, but put plenty of bedding on
it; that gets over that dificulty. Then
some one said it is slippery. Well,
before the cement is dry. | take a
rake and rake 1t all up and make it
as rough as a hedge fence, and then
the lows will not slip.

Methods of Heating Cream.

shown In the first sketch. Milk drawn
from the COW is about 100 degrees,
and the heating takes little work.
Then set the milk in a cool place. If
the water in the kettle boils the milk
must be stirred constantly to prevent
melting the butter fat.
Where a large quantity of milk is
to be heated, a simple way is to set
a can upon bricks in the tub and
carry steam down under it through a
pipe, as shown in the second sketch.
Cream may also be warmed up in this
device for churning. To preserve the
milk and cream it should be kept at
as low temperature as possible with.
out freezing, of course.

HEATING MILK AND CREAM.
Two Methods Which viii Prove Easy

easily cleaned. If it is possible to hold
the heat at 1870 degrees for half an
hour a little of the bad germs is con-
trolled. Do not set pans on the stove
so that the cream will burn on the
pan and part of it be overheated.
