DAIRY GENTLEMAN OF GUERNSEY.
would no more think of substituting
an inferior animal for good one than
they would of committing forgery.
Here is a picture of a good Guernsey
bull. He is an imported animal and
when photographed was two years old.
He is well marked and colored, fine
specimen of the breed, says Rural New
Yorker.
The Guernseys are very popular with
those who know them. They have
never been imported as largely as the
Jerseys, and their owners have not at
tempted to boom them by spectacular
methods. The island of Guernsey is
smaller than that of Jersey, with fewer
cattle on it.. The Guernsey is larger
framed COW than the Jersey, with a
quieter disposition and averaging even
better as butter producer. The
Guernseys have remarkable power to
give high color to milk and butter fat.
In many Holstein herds where milk is
sold,a few Guernseys are kept to give
a good color to the product AS the
Guernseys are often spotted it is easier
to Identify specimens by their mark
ings, and the Guernsey Cattle club is
very careful of it's records.

Can Raise Good Ones.

I recently sold a bull calf, born in
April, 1906, that weighed 1,025 pounds,
writes a dairyman in Kimball's Dairy
Farmer. l have one left little over
nine months old that weighs S15
pounds. I mention these figures in
order that you may judge whether
am able to raise calves or not. Pos
sibly shall have to study up more
on this subject. These calves never
sucked their dams day, and when
less than thirty days old they were get,
ting all skim milk At an early age
they got acquainted with oats weigh
ing thirty-six pounds to the bushel, and
they have stayed by these ever since.
l think this combination makes pret-
ty good calf feed after all.

Gentle Reminders For Customers ef
the Dairyman.
It is up to the milk producers to ed
ucate the consumers in the care of
milk, for the very best lacteal fluid
ever sold may be deteriorated or ruin
ed by a few minutes of thoughtless-
ness in the kitchen department. Some
suggestions for milk customers come
from Canadian source as follows:
Immediately milk is received by the
consumer it should be put in cool
place, on ice if possible, and kept cool
until portion or all is used Do not
open a bottle until you intend to use
the milk and avoid disturbing the milk
after it has been opened unless abso-
lutely necessary. The more it is han
died or poured from one vessel to an
other the more quickly it will lose fla
vor and become sour. Milk is also
ever ready to absorb f1avors and odors
from surrounding substances.
The careful mistress need not be
warned to protect milk from dust and
to keep 1t out of the sun. Even the
painstaking mistress sometimes for
gets that dust is a greater injury to
milk than to any other food. Every
particle of dust which falls on the
surface of milk carries with it bac-
terra which will develop rapidly in
their new home and assist in the
work of destruction. The whole body
Of milk is no better than the poorest
portion going to make it up. Be very
careful, therefore, not to mix new
milk with old. 1t is wise to keep
milk that has been opened by itself
until used. Have several small pitch
ers instead of one or two large ones
for keeping the milk in. 1t is well
to make a practice of scalding and
cooling the vessel just before the milk
is placed in it. 1t is commendable
practice to keep certain vessels for ex-
elusive use as milk receptacles.

(c) For cows calving normally and

An Ancient Fraud.

Let us again caution our readers
against buying churns which are
claimed by agents to double or treble
the yield of butter and also against
attempting to sell the product of such
churns and methods. These churns,
with the aid of the agents chemicals,
incorporate other milk solids with but
ter fat and apparently increased the
yield of butter, but it isn't butter and
its sale is illegal. This is an ancient
fraud, concludes National Stockman,
often exposed, but apparently still 60

Good Blood.
That one who has Travelled to the
various countries of the globe and
studied the conditions there is ''glad to
get back under the stars and stripes,
where taxes are reasonable and where
freedom reigns,". is the opinfen of
loyal son of Iowa expressed Ia the
Homestead on reaching home. to which
sentiment, however, he frankly adds
this appreciation of English methods:
England unquestionably is great
place for good live stock. The reason
for this is that they have persisted in
raising good ones, and they are now
reaping their reward. l presume that
Americans will achieve the same re-
suits when they have been in the busi-
ness as long as their cousins across
the water l certainly believe that it
pays us to introduce the best blood
that we can find abroad into our
focks and herds here.
A study of English methods of sheep
breeding reveals the fact that great
pains have been taken there about
the selection of the sires. They never
stop at a few dollars If they can find
something good.
Foreign Thoroushness.
Joe Wing Of Ohio, favorably known
as a sheep grower throughout this
country and home again after spend
ing some months in Europe, writes to
the Breeders Gazette, Chicago. What
has he got out of his journeyings?
A great deal, he hopes. He has come
home less boastful than he was.
America is a grand country, but we
| can yet learn much, must learn much.
| We need not lose our loyalty to see
our faults. We have not learned it all.
We deceive ourselves sometimes by
| Understanding what other peoples
have DONE In some things they are
| behind US, no doubt. Sometimes they
| seem to have less energy, but they
make. up for that in thoroughness.
I They are not stationary either; they
! progress quite as fast as we, espe-
cially in Denmark and Scotland.
We immensely lack in energy and
enterprise when it comes to devoting
an entire neighborhood to growing one
sort of horse or COW or sheep and to
making that sort the very best. We
are too much inclined to independence
Of thought and action. We cannot
agree. l breed, for instance, Hack
neys; my neighbor will take Shires,
his neighbor Percherons, the neXt'man
trotters; the next fellow believes in
mixing bloods as much as possible,
and lot of US will choose the cheap
/ stallion that insures to ''stand and
suck" Thus we do not get ahead as
we would if we adopted the Scottish
plan of horse associations, neighbors
pledged to use a splendid sire, COM
mittees hunting him up and securing
him, and all pledged to support him
by liberal service fees. We will never
reach their level of success till we
have more unity of action and more
steadfastness of purpose.

sociation is w. NJ. Hayes of the de-
partment of agriculture.
Don't Pick Up Scrub.
Live stock gets scrubby fast enough
even when good males are used, and
it is a shortsighted policy to hasten the
process by breeding from an inferior
male. Do not wait around until you
are absolutely in need of male and
then go and pick up somebody's scrub.
Type of American Carriage Horse.
The k%pe desired for the American
carriage horse, as decided upon by a
representative committee of American
breeders and horsemen, is as follows:
Not under fifteen hands for mature
horses; smooth, compact and symmet-
rical conformation; neck Of good length,
inclined naturally to arch; sloping
shoulders; well set legs of medium
length; slopfng pasterns and good feet;
short, strong back; well sprung ribs,
well ribbed up to coupling; smooth
loins; full tanks; straight Group, with
well set tail; full, round buttocks.
Cabbage as Feed.
The Cornell station says that in the
search for good succulent feeds for
live stock the cabbage should not be
overlooked. AS high as fifty tons of
cabbage per acre have been grown at
Cornell, yielding nearly four tons of
dry matter and containing one ton of
nitrogenous matter

Horse STEALING,

In regard to the operations of horse
thieves, which in some parts of the
country have been assuming unusual
boldness, western exchange remarks:
The organized vigilance of "a communi-
ty is the best safeguard against horse
stealing or any other kind of thievery.
Where antihorse thief and protective
associations exist nine out of every
ten thieves are caught, and at this
rate they soon give up such communi-
ties. The time to organize is before
the property is stolen. That it is wise
to lock the stable door bsfore the horse
Is stolen is proverb which applies
very aptly to this case.
