VALUE OF DAIRY EXPERIENCE.


The value of dairy experience de-
Ponds on the man that has the ex-
perience. The man that thinks and
sees and figures and calculates makes
something out of his experience. while
the man that never sees and never
changes gain nothing In particular
by his experience. He is like the race
horse running round and round in
the ring. He may In time gain lit
tie extra muscle and be able to go a
little faster. but he gains nothing else.
TO the progressive man experience
Is worth much. He is a scholar and
is In the school OF experience. Every
day brings new lesson and every
day he Is more able to do we'll with
his work than he was the day before.
He figures and calculates. He weighs
the milk of all his COWS and learns In
q few months which cows are CIV
ing little and which much. He tests
the milk of his COWS and with the two
kinds OF information he is able to
pick out his poorest cows and discard
them. On the other hand, he is able
10 PICK out MS rev very best cows
and breed them to males that will give
him excellent mixers. This kind of
experience he turns into money, while
the other kind OF a man would not
even lay hold of the facts in the case.
The value of experience depends
on the man, says Farmers Review.
Many men run in circle and are al
ways contemplating the same facts.
A few men try hard to get out OF their
circles and do this by a close scrutiny
and analysis OF the facts they see, by
which they are able to mark out for
themselves new circles on broader
plan. We all run in circles in spite OF
ourselves, but we can enlarge our cir
cles IL we try, and there is nowhere
greater necessity for trying than
in dairying.

BASKETS FOR THE TABLE.

Baskets for Special Occasions.


Baskets OF one sort and another, OF
simple or more or less ornamental

orative effect.

the shape of a chicken, and here is
one designed to adorn patriotic table

to order in special forms, as for ban

such baskets are made specially II Is

WHAT is TIT
A Query as to the Difference Between
Two Dairy Cows.

Two cows stand side by side in the
is fed yet one will extract from that
iood as much again butterfat as the
the other. The butter product of the
food is 100 per cent. greater with one
COW that the other This fact is seen
in too great frequency in all herds Of
cows. What is that inner quality
whereby one COW can produce so much
more than the other from the same
food? 1t is hard to find the right
name for it. but it may be called
dairy quality" Now, certain breeds
of cattle are distinguished for this
quality. They have the power to &C
complish this work in greater pro-
portion and perfection by reason OF
having been bred TO that purpose from
long lines Of ancestors of like quality.
One would think that there would not
be dairy farmer in the land who
would not be lSeenly alive to the neces-
sity and economy of using such cattle
for dairy purposes. AS soon would
we think he would cut hay with
reaper ana call III the DeSt way.
But the so-called general purpose
notion has destroyed in not few men
the power to look into this question
in an economical way, says Hoard's
Dairyman. They seem to be unable
to take the same advantage in their
choice.of COW machinery that they do
in choosing their mechanical machin-
cry. They cannot be fooled into TAX
ing a pillow for a cultivator, yet thou
sands of farmers will spend their lives
in trying to make cows of beef-breed-
ing do dairy work. II they were close
students of cause and effect they
would not be beguiled this way.
Why should not the farmer be
close student of cause and effect,

KEEPING UP THE MILK FLOW.
II Can Be Done by Judicious and Gen
erous Feeding.

II is a matter of importance that
the flow of milk be kept up to the
highest possible point. 1t is too Of
ten the case that the matter is not
attended to on account of the press
Of the work during haying and har
vest. The feed gets short in the
pasture, the flies bother the COWS, and
as amount of milk is reduced little
each day it passes unnoticed until it
is too late to remedy the matter.
If supplemental feed has been pro-
vided in the shape of oats and peas.
1t is well TO begin feeding them as
soon as a shrinkage is discovered,
says the Orange Judd Farmer. In
the absence of such feed green clover,
cut and put in the manger for the
COWS to eat when they come in at
night, makes a good substitute. If
fodder corn was sown or planted
thickly for the same purpose, one
appear.
When I have had fodder corn 20
feed during the latter part of the
summer, especially sweet corn, have
found that it was a saving of time to
use 1t, for the COWS relished the feed
so we'll that they would come up for
it at milking time. Those who now
have a supply OF silage to feed can
meet the requirements of the cows
very easily, and they are then mas
ters of the situation. The silage can
be fed with the least extra trouble
Of any of the supplemental feeds.

pecially smart, is always in good

purses of pigskin with rounding
down flap, trimmed with a narrow sill
yer rim. This has no visible fasten-

side. The square purse, while very
roomy and easy to carry, is not in as
good taste as the long, narrow one.

Blouse Novelty.

One of the most charming novelties
I'm the way of blouses has been
launched by a well known designer of
unusual styles. This delightful little
waist is made OF soft silk in the most
delicate of shell pink tones. The en-
tire bodice and dropping sleeves are
formed of twoinch folds, one over
tapping the other. These run from
the high girdle over the shoulders and
tuck in at the back. The sleeves are
formed of a continuation of plaits or
folds extending to the wrist, where
they narrow down to proportionate
dimensions. The neck is finished with
a high lace and batiste collar and
chemisette. Two rather more elab-
crate blouses of this character have
their folds an inch wide. and each one
edged with the narrowest lace to be
found Besides giving the desired
broad shouldered effect the lace
softens the regular lines OF the folds

COVERED MILK PALS.
Facts Which Go to Prove That They
Are Best.

The Storrs, Conn, agricultural ex-
pertinent station has carefully tested
the various devices in covered milk
pals in producing sanitary milk and
in reducing the incident bacteria in
the process of milking. In bulletin AS
in which these experiments are shown
is the following summary of results
and recommendations:
/. The use of the covered milk pail
is of great advantage in any stable
in excluding dirt and bacteria from
the milk. The relative advantage
gained by the use of the cover de-
ponds upon the sanitary condition of
the stable.
2. The special form of cover does
not seem to be important provided it
is a device practical for use and the
area through which dirt can gain ac-
cess to the milk is reduced as much
as possible.
3. Whether or not a strainer On the
covered pail is desirable depends upon
the style of the straining device.
4. The use Of the strainer in a pail
where the dirt which falls into the
opening is likely to be driven through
by the succeeding streams of milk is
not desirable. Its use tends TO in
crease the germ content of the milk
and injure its keeping quality.
5. In pals where the dirt which
falls in does not remain where the sue.
ceeding streams strike against 1t q
strainer cloth aids in keeping down
the number of bacteria which gain &C.
cess to the milk.

This practice of opening the coat
skirts up the sides and trimming the
edges OF the opening seems to have
caught the fancy of the French design
ers. and often this device is employed
for the purpose of securing fullness
without bulky awkwardness in the
coat skirts.
One of the cloth suits is a case in
point, the long, close-fitting cutaway
coat being handsomely braided and
big braid buttons being introduced on
the front, the sleeves and where the
coat skirts are slit up at the sides.
A new model OF this kind shows a
pretty idea. The cutaway coat skirts
do not begin their slant until half way
between waistline and knee. and from
that point they run down to three
quarter length at sides, sloping up
again, though much less sharply to-
ward the back
This leaves long point at each
side of the coat and the coat skirts
are opened up from points to hips.
