A Matter of Habit.
Just Discovered IL.

Before a New York dairymen's con-
vention Mrs. Marshall one Of the pro-
prietors of dairy farm, gave knock
at some Of the dairy advice so freely
floating around at present: "In every
movement looking to the reform or
betterment of degenerate conditions,
the existence of which has been per-
fectly obvious to thinking people,
there arises class of 'just-discovered-
1t maniacs' who fairly froth at the
mouth In their zeal to Guido each other
In correcting the abuse. For a few
years the dairy has been the target
of surplus wrath. 1t has been special
lied, scrutinized, sterilized, pasteur-
lied and paralyzed. Some Of the lat
est items since the reformers have had
their fling are: There is nothing but
dirt in the dairy, and you keep ever
lasting at it. And you tell every
body of your gymnastics to keep the
diaries sanitary, and you shout it from
the housetops, and you write 1t to the
dairy papers, and soon your labors
will be all done, for nobody will want
your milk or butter

Food For Xouno Calves.

Somehow 1t seems that lack OF
pro@ II nourishment In the early period
of life of calf decreases it's de-
veSbpment of dairy capacity just so
much, and from this 1t is likely to
never fully recover. In cheesemakinG
and milk shipping districts there is
constant demand for some substi-
tute for skim milk In calf rearing

he has never found anything quite
as good in this particular as thin
Cruel made of coarse wheat -four or
rye or oat meal first baked or roasted
to slight brown in an oven and then
boiled and sailed as If for human food.
We will add this caution--that IL oat-
meal is used 1t should be sifted, as
the oat hulls will prove rather irri-
tating to the stomach of a young calf
1t would seem, too. that this mixture
might prove a capital thing to add TO
skim milk to a certain extent. Barley
meal sifted and handled In the same
way would prove an excellent food for
young calves.
In our own practice we use barley
meal to considerable extent in con
nection with alfalfa hay. OF course
we have plenty of skim milk, but II
Is well to know also what to use with
1t. We hear very favorable reports
from those who have used Red Dog

WHEN TO FEED COWS.
The Regular Routine Of Feeding and
Milking.

Milking.
Feeding cows before. after or nj
time Of milking has but very little in
fuence upon the amount of milk given
or the cows comfort. provided that,
whichever method is adopted. it IS
continued regularly. Cows. Ike men.
are creatures OF habit They know
almost 10 minute when IL is time
for the grain ration or other feed and
when the mixer Is due 10 take the
milk, and nothing should occur 10
cause a break I'm the regular routine OF
feeding, milking etc.
At Milking Time.
Our own practice has been 10 feed
after milking. 1t has also seemed best
10 have the cows all attention at milk
ing time If eating a grain feed while
being MIXED. a COW is eager for the
feed and possibly brings the right hind
leg forward suddenly against the
mixer. causing the pail to move about
and rattle. The unexpected noise may
cause the COW to kick or the one next
to her to do so. The mixer must be
constantly on his guard. In moving
from one COW to another he must
speak to her and attract her attention
from the feed or she may kick. Pos
sibly she is the gentIest COW in the
herd: but. being busy with her feed,
she kicks out at noise in the rear
or upon being touched with the stool
or hand She is nervous and seeks
to protect herself
First Work In the Stable.
Our first work i'm the COW stable In
the morning is milking The cows be-
gin to get up and stretch. They are
perfectly quiet, are not expecting feed.
but are ready to be MIXED, and as
each cows turn comes she puts herself
in proper position and does not move
a muscle. She likes to feel the brush
! on her flank. udder and belly, brushing
off loose straw, hair, etc. The moment
that the last COW is finished, however,
that quiet, sleepy condition Is changed
TO one Of activity.
A Matter of Habit.
They are eager for breakfast and ask
for it with wide open eyes and gentle
lowing They smell the ensilage as il
comes down from the silo. Their ac-
tons plainly indicate that they would
like to have the feeder hurry In an
hour thrv are lying down, eyes closed,
and busy with the grind Of content
ment. 1t certainly must be plain to
every one that this Is habit and that a
continuance Of such regular work Is
best for the GOWN. Stenson in Farm
ers' Review.

A well known dairyman recently
said: II would like to give dairymen
this advice: Keep the number Of cows
you can feed probably; keep record
Of your herd, so as to determine the
profitable and improbable individ-
uals. One COW will produce $50 pounds
Of butter a year. while another pro.
duces only $50 pounds on the same
feed. Keeping record will show
which are the best ones"

The time when hay is placed before

believe in allowing them to nibble on 1t
Just as soon as they can be induced to
do so. But as these little animals are
dainty creatures they prefer their hay
fresh every day, and it should be re-
newed whether they have eaten much
Of II or not. Bright heads and leaves
Of clover are more tempting than timo-
thy, which is not desirable as food for
any young animal.

SILO AND SILAGE.

Corn silage would be fed the entire

Selling Is not practiced except when
absolutely necessary. The manager

seeding corn stubble with rye. cutting
the rye for hay and planting the same

loads of rye and fifteen tons of silage

lar exercise by cow giving milk must
tend to diminish the quantity and
quality Of the milk produced or at
least diminish the total amount OF
these constituents of the product
In the dairy especially 1t Is essential
to have the best stock that can be
produced and that are adapted to the
purpose for which they are kept. The
high grade butter cow will not only
give more and better butter than the
COW of no breed but she will do it at
less cost
When churning proceeds too rapidly
as a result of too high temperature
only part of the fat is solidified and
the balance or part of it is incorpOrat-

reason why such butter is always soft

servant. Bill, as the veteran was called,
had a high estimation of himself, and a
low idea of his masters

One day lady called. The artist was
absent, and she was received in the stu

an unfinished picture resting ON an easel.

New Orleans Cities of the Dead.

New Orleans has several miniature
cities within its boundaries, and they are
the cities of the dead" said Louis W.
LIE Blanc of the Crescent City.
Il mean," he explained, that every
cemetery in New Orleans is miniature
city. They are built above the ground
and laid out in streets, just as in the
larger city. Every house is of marble
and some of the tombs are miniature
cathedrals, temples and classic struc-
lures. In them are buried many men
who won fame under the dominion of
Spain and France. In them. too, are to
be found inscriptions that tell of sweet
Creole romances, such as that of Jeanne
Laclede. the popular singer of nearly a
century ago, who died of a broken heart.
Certain days are set apart according
to the old French Catholic custom for
visiting these miniature cities, and on
these days they are crowded all day long.
As they were built so long ago they are
now in the center of the city, and at
night look weird indeed. Long ago it
was found necessary to build the Gene
teries above the ground. because of the
fact that the city itself is below the level
of the Mississippi river. "-Washington
