The Dairy cow.-When a farmer
starts to build up his herd of dairy
cows he must know something about
the selecting of COWS or he will make
progress but slowly. One of the things
that every skillful selector of dairy
cowscows has learned is not to select
a COW because she is sleek. glossy and
handsome. That kind of a combina-
ton goes better with the beef COW
than the dairy COW. The true dairy
COW will be wedge-shaped and will
very likely show her ribs no matter
how well she has been fed. She has
been putting her food into her udder
rather than into fat to make her ribs
disappear. It Is well known fact
that a good dairy cow has the milk
producing habit so firmly fixed that it
Is difficult to feed her in way to
make her lay on fat while she Is Civ

COWS an hour if there are no extra
weighings, sampling and recording of
weights to be done. We pay at this
station Is cents an hour for milking.
This may be considered a rather high
price under present conditions in the
northwestern States. The after-milk-
ing of 20 cows would take a man
about two hours a day and would
therefore cost 80 cents. We have seen
that We obtain on the average an i'm
mediate increase of about one pound
OF milk and one-tenth of a pound of
butter fat per cow by the process of
after-milking, or from 20 cows, two
pounds of butter fat. If butter fat is
worth 20 cents a pound (a1 average
fgure), the value of the increased
yield would be SO ,cents-that is, there

THE GOOD MIXER
MAKES THE GOOD COW
What the Hege1und Is and What II Is Claimed


In recent bulletin Of the New
York Cornell station, dealing with
this subject, Professors Wing and
Foord say:
Milking the dairy cow is such a
simple operation and one that occu-
pies In the aggregate so much of the
1alryman's time. that it is easy to be-
come careless about it and to look
Upon the operation as one not requir-
-ng skill nor demanding scientific in
Vestigation. The feeding of the herd
las received careful attention, both by
investigators and farmers, until it is
now probably correct to say that the
dairy cow in the hands of the pro-
gressive dairyman is more scientifical-
ly fed and nourished than most chill
dren. The ventilation and sanitation

Avoid the Grade BulI.-No man
that wants to raise a good dairy calf
should use a grade bull on his herd
The temptation is great to use bull
of this description because such bulls
are numerous and their service fees
are low The man that does not have
a bull of his own may frequently have
to so long distance to get past the
grade bull and into the territory of
the bull Of pure breeding. Under no
circumstances should anything bu.. q
pure-bred bull be used If dairy cows
are what the farmer is trying to uro.
duce- The use of the grade bun ON
grade cattle will give no advance IN
quality and his use on pure-bred cows
means the pulling down of the quality

would be gain of 20 cents day per
20 COWS, or about $50 a year, as, the
direct and immediate gain from prac-
ticing the manipulation method.
1t is pointed out by Prof Woll that,
besides the immediate gain in milk
and butter fat secured, the method has
the decided advantage of stimulating
milk secretion and thus prolonging the
lactation period
The results obtained by the New
York Cornell station bear out in gen.
eral those of the Wisconsin station.
The gains from after-miiking varied
from or to 1.94 pounds of milk per
head per day containing from OO79 to
OIL pound of butter fat. The results
were slightly in favor of the Hegelund
method as compared with stripping,
but the difference was so small that

method can hardly be made" -.
All the milk secreted by a COW
should be drawn at each milking. If
necessary, manipulation of the udder
and stripping should be resorted to in
order to accomplish this end. The
after-milking should be done by the
regular mixer and need take. but little
extra time. It is probable that such
clean milking is an incentive to secre.
