Animals" tells about shepherd dog,
owned by Dan Pierce, who lived near
Neosha, No, which answered to. the
I,aIle Of Shop. That Shep could count
was demonstrated by his owner one
day, when he told a visitor to capture
one Of the sheep when Shep was not
watching. This was done and the an
iulal was hidden in the woods. When
the sheep came home Shep took his
stand inside the gate, as usual. but no
sooner had the last sheep passed into
the Enclosure than he gave unmistakable
signs that something was wrong. He
sprang into the lane, looked in every
direction. ran back into the corral and
looked the flock over more carefully.
then out into the lane again and down
toward the woods he ran as fast as
his anxious feet could carry him. Find

Choosing a Dairy Cow.

Il IS I'm possible to form Il reliable
conception in this matter from the
orthodox descriptions published in text
books. The only way is by q constant.
critical and intelligent survey OF liv
ing animals Of good independent type
and conformation. No man can really
know a good COW until he has MIXED
her, and every young farmer should
learn to milk. II IS not an irksome
task. and It provides store OF useful
knowledge that could never be acquir-
ed from a book.
In selecting dairy COW the pros
pective buyer should always milk her.

the udder Il should be soft and Yield
ing under the hand. feeling something
like silk purse. Some COWS even af
ter being MIXED appear to have large
udders. They look well in rhotogra phs
but the practical man can form a very
good impression OF the cows capacity
II after she was MIXED. she looked as
II she had been. This ability to I'm FIX
OUT IS I'm portant. and a feshy udder
IS often deceptive. IT is an education
to see a cow MIXED. II the strand OF
milk is thin. the animal Is not to be a
good patlr1ller. but on the other hand.
il It IS thick. she might be expected to
do well. The good mi1ker has a thick
teat, blunt at the point. After seeing
that the COW MIXED out well. the next
thing Is 10 find out II she has a good
touch. Place the hand softly on her
and the feeling should be such as II
there was soft springy pad under
meath. In good mixer. the backbone
and the two big hips would be found
hard to cover. but generally to the
touch would be found so soft in flesh
that 1t would almost seem as II the
finger and thumb would meet thru It,
Avoid the COW with d tough. hard skin.
The udder. however, is the great de-
Gliding point. SO when looking at a
COW, YOU should always have her driv-
en- away from you to see how she is
finished at the rear end. Her walk is
most important. II properly construct
ed. she would walk brisk1y. and II
rightly constituted as dairy COW
should be, she would look around in
telligently and appear bright.
