The Cows Best Age.

What generally is he age ut
which a COW kept iE the dairy ae a
mixer ought to be given to the
beef interest?
There are different views taken of
this. Ordinarily this age is put at
eight years. ....-..
It has been stated in print that a
cow properly cared for will yearly
grow better until she is twelve Years
old; some regard the most profit
able cows as older than even twelve
years.
Undoubtedly The usual rule is for
about eight years. There are unusual
cows in this respect.
There appears to be be an opinion to
the milking organs, until a COW be-
comes feeble by age, gain strength
by use. Does the eyesight grow
by use better and better all the
time?
The theory may sound we'll, but
the eyesight does not strengthen
