Ayrshire Helfer.

In Scotland, in Canada and In the
states she has been bred not for fam

excellencies, but all along the line she
has been pushed as breed of uni

This is / believe greatly to her ad-

Of all purchasers of Ayrshire cows,
for the uniformity Of her dairy excel

made rapid progress in popularity. as

One hopeful feature of the breed is
that she has built herself up on all
lines of dairy utility In dairy con.

and the Ayrshire COW stands today
unique among the dairy breeds, with
no aristocracy of family distinction
but maintains her popularity from her
individual and breed qualities.
While there are minor differences
in her appearance, under different
breeders, and in different countries,
the Ayrshire is an Ayrshire wherever
found, and shows the same strong

CHAPTER v.

Horatio Passavant occupied a resi-
dence on Park avenue, that dullest of
New Yorks many dull uptown streets.
The place and it's furnishings, like
their owner, we're heavy, eminently
respectable, pompous, and quite pre-
tentious.
The household consisted of himself,
his daughter, and his spinster sister
the latter tolerated chiefly because
she made an admirable sheep-dog for
the second, being conveniently deaf,
quite colorless as to opinions, and
capable of complete self-effacement
upon occasion.
Clara Passavant, the daughter, was
commonly accounted handsome
woman, of pale, blonde, stately type
of beauty; she was thoroughly mer-
cenary, brilliant as an icicle and near
ly as cold, heartless, vain, and ambi-
tious. Her all-consuming aim in life
was to contract splendid marriage;
in her eyes money was the indis-
ness; and, although she probably
never shaped the thought in so many
words, she would undoubtedly sell her
self to the highest bidder.
Father and daughter were sitting
over their dessert on the evening of
the day which brought to Wilfrid the
tidings of his stupendous change in
fortune. The scene was far as the
antipodes from the humble interior
over in Macdougal street. where an
other and a more momentous inter
view was at that very moment also
taking place.
Now tell me about this Mr.. Stennis
of yours, papa" said Clara after the
servants had retired is he at all

the lawyer; "a trihe raw and I'M

HIGH CLASS DAIRY PRODUCTS
Cleanliness and Proper Care OF Cow
Are Among Many Other Things
Needed for Success.

Within the last decade there has
been marked improvement in the
dairy conditions in all parts of the
country. The inspection of the diaries
the COWS and the surroundings
has helped to call the attention of the
owners to many things that needed
to be corrected in order to produce a
class of dairy products that would
have about them but few, If any. OBJ
jectionable features.
In the first place it is well under
stood that the cow should be properly
cared for and fed such foods as will
bring good results. The milk should
not be used for food until FIVE days
after the COW has freshened. The
cows should not be excited any time
during the day or night, as such
things as fear reduces the quantity
of the milk yield and Injuries the quail
ity of the same. The ration should
not contain materials which impart
bad odors in the stable, or injure
the flavor of the milk
While the inspection has encour-
aged the arranging of the barns SO
as to be convenient, they also sug-
gest a system of ventilation that
should be used which will insure an
abundance of pure air for the COW to
breathe at all times. The ventilation
should also prevent any odors that
can faint the milk. Bad doors in the
stable are readily taken up by the
milk and will follow 1t ever after.
Much care In regard to cleanliness
should always be exercised by those
who have charge of the stables and
handle and milk the cows. Some men
can be neat and careful in all they do,
while others are Indifferent and
thoughtless. It Is the latter class that
the inspectors have to instruct in or
der that their milk will be sanitary
and at for food. All dairymen should
welcome the inspectors, and solicit
from them suggestions where improve
ments in management can be made.
The better the quality of the product.
the greater the demand, and the
greater the profits that will come to
the producers.
