III cover is left of the can a piece Of
eloth or mosquito netting should be
used TO keep cut Insects.
If milk Is stored it should be held in
tanks of fresh, cold water, renewed
daily, IN a clean, dry. cold room. Tn
less it is desired TO remove cream IL
should be stirred with a tin stirrer Of
ten enough to prevent forming thick
cream layer.
Keep the night milk under shelter so
rain cannot get into the cans. In warm
weather hold it in a tank Of fresh, cold
water.
Never mix fresh, warm milk with
Tat which has been cooled.
DO not allow the milk TO freeze.
Under no circumstances should any
thing be added to milk TO prevent its
souring Cleanliness and cold are the
only preventiyes needed.
All milk should be in good condition
when delivered This may make it
necessary to deliver twice day during
the hottest weather.
When cans are hauled far they should
be fun and carried i'm spring wagon.

Dairy Wis dom

Regularity in feeding and milking
counts great deal toward success
To get best results be systematic ina
your work.
Use a milk cooler, but never use Il
in impure air.
A COW tail holder is humane and
saves 4 lot Of profanity
Good milk depends on something
more than the mixer and the COW.
You harvest corn and wheat once a
year You harvest milk twice a day.
The points that make COW good
mixer make her a poor beef animal.
You can't grind corn and get flour.
Neither can you feed straw and get
butter.
Your barn yard is not purely a place
for storing manure-not IL you want
the best milk.
A safe rule says Kimbalrs Dairy
Farmer. is never TO sell any milk YOU
would be unwilling to use on your
own table.
Cleanliness is a requisite for the pro
duction Of good grade of milk You
can't keep milk sweet II you allow
filth TO get into IT, Filth means bad
milk. bad cream and bad butter. Be
ware Of filth. Keep the cows clean.
Skim milk is the best food for grow.
Ing pigs Every particle of skim milS
should be utilized to turn the wastes
into pork.
If you cannot afford to buy herd
of pure bred cattle you can buy good
bull and grade up your herd. Pedigree
doesn't make production. and produc-
ton Is what most of us are after. 1t
wouldn't be altogether profitable for
all of MS to be breeders Of pure bred
stock. but we could all Increase the
productlvencss Of our herds to great
advantage. a good dairy bull viii &C
complish that end more rapidly than
many suppose.
The care of the COW just after calv-
ing determines to a large degree her fu-
ture profit as q mixer If she is not
at once brought up TO a high state OF
milk production the chances are she
cannot be during that period Of lacta-
tlon. If a COW Is permitted TO fall IN
her milk production, says the Farmers
Advocate, II is next 20 impossible 10
get hcr back to her former yield.

New York with its annual h~dget OF
more than $500 100000 or rather more
than half the appropriation made
every year by the federal government
for all its branches would seem TO
be on its financial uppers. The city
has literally been spending its money
before II got 1t. aud consequently in
spite of the half billion which Ii dis
burses annually finds itself in the
hrmiliating position of being unable
to settle a few small accounts amount
iRe TO the mere trifie of 5000 900 or
thereabouts. To make the situation
all the more painful there is more
than s7,000.005 in the city treasury
which money-swallowing Father
knickerbockeg cannot apply to these
bills. The city indeed stands today
as sta.tiing municipal example OF
the axiom that it is well 20 Get ones
money before spending it, The small
accounts which cannot be met are due
to contractors for work done on dock
and water main construction. To
meet these expenses an issue of cor
porate stock was authorized. the at
ritude Of the city being that there
would be plenty Of time to raise tie
money in this manner after the work
had begun. Perhaps there wouil II
there had been any purchasers for
this issue Of the eity's securities. Ur
fortunately. there were none. The
money in the city treasury cannot BE-
used for expenditure specially provided

sequently Father Knickerbocker Is
aiher ruefuily aware OF the fact that
he eannot pay his small bills and that
be has been fooiishly indulging in the
pefnicious pastime Of spending money
