the former says in American CultlVa-

her by the side of the Durhams, and
she made more butter and got fat on
one-half the feed the Durhams got.
We then disposed of all the Durhams.
Then we tried the Jerseys - giving
them a fair trial-but they would not
come to the place with Devons in max
ing butter or milk to our satisfaction.
So we gave them up. Then we caught
the Holstein fever and that was worse
than ever. She gave plenty of milk,
but it would not test with the DevOns.
She would eat as much feed and hay
as any three Deyons we had in the
barn. We now have no other cattle
but the Rubies and will stick to them,
as they have lifted us out Of some very
tight places.

cottonseed Meal For Cows.

Professor John Michels of Clemson
college, South Carolina, claims that
when the health of cows is unfavora-
bly, influenced by cottonseed meal it is
in all probability due to one or more
of the following causes: (1) Feeding
the meal in conjunction with unsuita-
bic roughage, e. feeding ii in stale
or musty condition and (3) feeding it in
excessive quantity. The composition
Of cottonseed meal and wheat bran
shows the former to be more than
twice as rich in nutrients as the latter.

The Standard Of the Herd.

In starting a herd one thing should
not be forgotten. A superior boar
may be used on inferior sows with
good results, but the use of an inferior
boar on sows Of high quality will have
a disastrous outcome. The one method
raises the standard of the herd, the :
other inevitably lowers 1t.
