NEEDED ON DAIRY FARM.
A Good Plan for Dairy with Ieshouse
and Water Tank.

Every farmhouse needs three things,
dairy room, cool. clean, sanitary.
convenient, a store of Ice and an abun-
dant supply of water. Fortunately all
OF these can easily be secured In one
building, and that may be very
slightly and even pleasing building In
appearance. We will. of course, build
1t of concrete, the sides may be of
plain plaster effect, II rough all the
better. and afterwards covered with
vines and creepers. A foreword about
the finishing of concrete walls. They
may be plastered after the forms are
taken away. This is not the cheap
way, nor does 1t always look best.
They may be etched with acid to take
away the newness and rawness; this
gives very pretty effect. Or they
may be hammered with rough faced
hammer, similar to what cooks use for
making tender beef steak; this also
gives nice roughness. The plain
plaster wall looks better, usually, than
the wall made of blocks initiating
stone: the latter is too monotonous.
1t is not practicable to color the
whole mass of concrete to initiate
brick, since 1t would take too much
coloring matter. The best color Ia the
dry iron ore red. II might be put on
as wash after the wall was complete.
l have given this building much
thought to make It come within the
cost that can be afforded by any we'll
to-do farmer. continues Joseph Z.
Wing in Breeders Gazette. We will

arget or caked udder is quite a
colmon trouble which occurs usually
jus before or Just after calving. The
udor becomes hard and the glands
arsenlarged and feverish. There are
usnlly no bad consequences from the
troble unless 1t is neglected. 1t is
caued by a large supply of milk re-
maAing in the udder and is some
tins aggravated by neglecting to
milk out or by the COW standing In n
draf of cold air In cases of this
kind II is not well to milk the COW
out lean as the irritation caused by
milling makes matters worse. The
best procedure is to only partially
empy the udder and then reduce the
inflammation with fermentation OF

hungry calf and the working of the
teats will sometimes help. II Is also
