DAIRY BRIEFS.

The heifcr that is harshly treated
with her first calf seldom fully recov-
ers. She has a delicate nervous or
ganism that must be carefully handled
The comfortable COW Is the one that
gives the milk and makes the butter.
See If you can't devise some means
Of protecting the COWS from flies. Fly
repcllents will help.
The COW with good dairy points and

1t is the performance that tells.
If COWS are being driven long way,
il Is best to stop every little while and

The best cows are handled from calf

Farmers i'm selecting cows usually
want those who give milk that is good

Pure water is as important for the
cows now as 1t was in the winter time.
Warm skinned milk with some
cooked oatmeal and some haxseed jelly
is an economical and profitable feed
for growing dairy calves.
While the milk is warmer than the
surrounding air il should be left I'M

advantage be covered.

Covered Milk Pals.

The advantages of using covered
pals with small openings are appar-
ent from the fact that we have shown
that one of the most prolific causes OF
contamination is from the COW anf
stable at the time of milking. says L.
l.. Dawley. superintendent of New
York farm Institutes. When these
small topped pals were first intro
duced into my own stables the men
claimed that they could not milk into
them. but when one of them was re-
minded that one of his diversions was
milking into the mouth of a cat sitting
up on her hind legs his objection was
readily overcome. All utensils used i'm
milking or in handling the milk should
be thoroughly sterllized. 1t is not
enough that the pals and cans be
washed they should be thoroughly
scalded with steam or boiling water.
In all dairy operations sal soda should
be used instead Of soaps

Kindness to the Cow.

Kindness is an efficient aid in in
creasing the milk yield and costs moth
ing. The more the mixer can make
his cows admire him and feel comfOrta-
BILE around him the more milk they
will yield TO him. Investigations show
that large proportion Of the milk is
secreted in the COW during the opera
ton of milking. especially the rich
milk, which comes last. Any abuse or
excitement reduces the secretion and
not only lowers the quantity of milk
given. but often lowers the percentage
of butter fat Kindness and petting
make the COW contented and put her
nervous system IN such condition that
the fullest yield Of milk will be given.
This Is not the only cause. but probably
the chief cause of the wide variation Of
butter fat. which Is shown by tests TO be
due to the hurrylng of COWS, allowing
the dogs to bite them and speaking to
them roughly. all of which will reduce
the milk yield and the percentage of
butter fat 4 change Of mixers Will
often lower the amount Of butter fat
until the COW becomes fond of the new

Food Fer Younu Calves.

Somehow IL seems that a lack OF
proper nourishment in the early period
of the life of calf decreases its de-
velopment of dairy capacity just so
much. and from this 1t Is likely TO
never fully recover. In cheesemaking
and milk shipping districts there is
a constant demand for some substi-

DAIRY BREEDS.

of the dairy department of the Pan.
American fair. Is firm believer in the
special purpose cow From his expert.
ence Mr.. Van Alstyne considers the
Holstein, the Ayrshire and the Jersey
or Guernsey the leading types of dairy
breeds. The Holstein, he finds, Will
produce q quart of milk at less cost
Than any other breed and Is well adapt
ed TO those who wish TO produce milk
at low cost regardless OF richness and
Will supply plenty of food without oblig-
ing the COW to hustle for living Ac-
cording TO Mr.. Van Alstyne. the AyT-
shire is well adapted 10 hill pastures
ynd on such locations ought not To he
supplanted by the IIolstein. The milk is
richer in solids and fat ana the COW
better adapted TO finding her own liv-
Ing in rough pastures. The milk Is
well balanced in composition ana de
sirable for cheesemaking. and the COW
is of good constitution and occupies a
place between the Holstein and the
Channel island breeds.
The Jerseys and Guernseys are very
much alike and are cassed about
equally in Mr.. Van Alstyne's estima-
ton. They are. above all. good butter
COWS. The Holsteins at the Pan-Amer
lean exposition made more pounds of
butter than the channel breeds, but ii
cost II cents a pound where the Jer-
seys and Guernseys made IL for o
cents. and they are accordingly the
best breeds for the man who wishes
to make butter Not only is the milk
richer. but 1t creams more readily and
can be handled TO better advantage
after the cream is obtained. 1t can
be churned with less trouble from tenn
perature and other conditions. The
color is also better, especially in win
ter, the Guernsey breed being the only
breed that produces high colored but
ter during the winter season.
For the dairyman stocking his farm
Mr.. Van Alstyne advises that the start
be made with pure bred stock if pos
sible. Although the first cost is high
er. such stock is more likely To breed
true and produce better quality. The
surplus young stock, too, can be sold
for much higher price than grade

Pure Water For the Cow.

The healthy animal should be pro
vided with constant supply of pure
water The statement that the COW
prefers dirty water Is false. The COW
prefers dirty water If it Is of more
suitable temperature than the clean
water offered, but clean water With
the chill taken off will be preferred to
the same water full of filth. 1t is
hardly reasonable to expect that the
cow IS going TO produce pure and
