perfectly developed. and secrstes only
for few months. Intelligent feeding.
selection and breeding have resulted
in an enormous development Of udder
and an almost continuous milking peri
cd in the best cows.
Tho Secretion OF Milk.
There are two general theories ad
vanced in regard to the secretion Of
milk. The metamorphic (meaning
change Of form claims that the milk
Is due to a breaking down Of the cell
structure Of the udder. We can hard
ly accept this. for it would be almost
impossible for a COW to build up and
break down the cells to the extent of
as high as from % to 100 pounds of
milk per day.
The transudation or filtering theory
claims that the milk filters or Oozes
through the tissues from the blood as
it courses through the udder. Neither
can this explanation be wholly true.
for constituents found in milk are al
most lacking in blood-fat. for ex-
ample.
A combination of these two theories
appears reasonable. AS the blood
courses through the udder from it are
taken substances to build up thou
sands and thousands Of tiny cells stor.
ed with materials which afterward
form the greater portion Of the solid
constituents of the milk. All day long
these cells keep developing. and the
udder grows larger and larger. The
blood is charged with an extra supply
of water.
The COW has now the materials in
readiness to make the finished product,
milk. We have provided her with food
and water. With these she has carried
on the manufacturing process to GER
tain point, but she needs some outward
assistance to finish the work thorough
ly. She gets this assistance from the
calf when it presses the teat in its
mouth or from us when we likewise
squeeze it in our hands.
We place our hands on the teats
thinking we do SO in order merely to
draw the milk, but We do much more
than that. We are cOworkers with the
cow in helping her to make the milk,
and the better we understand our part
Of the business the larger will be the
returns.
Action of the Nerves.
The materials for the milk are stored
in the cells Of the udder and in the
blood. Its final secretion is brought
about by the action of the nerves;
hence the great Importance of the
nervous constitution. If a cow were
giving ten quarts Of milk at a milking
and she were killed just before being
MIXED there would not be found in her
udder or any other part of her body
more than quart of milk. Too much
stress cannot be laid upon this fact
that the making of the milk is largely
completed Just at the time Of milking.
intelligence and kindness on the part
of the mixer at this time determine
to a great extent not only the guam
tity but also the quality Of the milk.
When we press the teats we excite
the fine network nerves in the udder.

A Useful Invention.


A Yorkshire farmer was paid by
check for some cattle he had sold. 1t
was the first time that it had ever hap
pened
"What's thisY' he said.
why, money for the beasts" said
the cattle dealer.
The farmer stared and had to be as
sured that If he took it to the bank
they would give him gold for it,
"Well," said he, "Aw'll try, but If
it's a wrong 'un thou'll hear about It, :"
The check was cashed, Of course.
and the farmer went home happy. but
he could not sleep. He had seen a
wonderful thing, and it had excited
him. As soon as day broke he made

MORE THAN HER OWN WEIGHT IN BUTTER
IN A YEAR
These nerves act on the cells. breaking
them down. At the same time the
water filters through the tissues, car
ryihg with it the mineral matter from
the blood. The materials from the
broken down cells and the water unite
to form milk. which finds it's way
through the minute channels to the
milk cistern at the top of the teat,
whence the milk Is dra wn by the down
ward pressure of the hand on the teat
through the teat canal and escapes.
1t takes the fat globules longer to get
to the outlet, hence the reason for the
richness of the last milk drawn.
Milk is product which is subject to
remarkable changes while in the body
of the animal secreting it. Intense
pain. fright. anger. all leave their
traces in the milk In the human
mother the first two of these have
been 90 infuse the milk with poison
and to cause commissions. and some
times the death of the nursing baby.
1t Is reasonable to suppose that what
Is true of the human family applies
more pr less to such highly develop
ed. sensitive animal as the dairy COW.
Some cows leak their milk. This is
due to the muscle at the teat opening
being too lax. 1t may be remedied
by a rather risky operation. Other
cows are very hard to milk, the muscle
being TOO tight. Remedies are given
for this defect also.
The How of milk is usually greater
In the morning and the percentage Of
fat Slightly lower than at the evening
milking

COST OF
INSANE
DRUNKS
Alderman Kick S
About Expense
TO the City.

The cost numerCeAoe commit,
ments of insane persons - this
city to the State Hospital for the
insane at Trenton, which has been a
much discussed subject at aldermanic
committee meetings COR the past few
months, resolved itself into hot
wordy battle between Alderman F.
A. Seaman and City Physician M. s.
Meinzer at police headquarters this
morning. The alderman contended
there were altogether too many or
dinary drunkards being sent away at
cost of $75 each to the city, who
might be attended here and the city
thus relieved Of the expense. The
physician maintained that there were
no adequate means to handle luna
tics here, whether they be violently
insane persons who remained In such
condition indefinitely, or man suf-
fering from delimium tremens, who
might only be ailing for a brief per-
iod.
Mr.. Seaman's attack upon the city
physician occurred In the doorway
OF police headquarters, few minutes
after the doctor had examined Frank
Schunt, fifty-f1ve years old, of Maur-
er, and decided him insane and a
subject for the state hospital. The
man Is believed to be ailing from ex-
cessive drink and 1t Is Just such pa
tients that the aldermen object to
having sent away. They want them
attended to In some isolation hospital
or the like. for they are not admitted
to general hospitals. Doctors de-
clare there Is no other way than to
send them to Trenton. DR.. Meinzer
said today u was impossible to keep
them in all isolation hospital for male
nurses could not be hired for almost
any amount of money to watch them
Both he and the police declare insane
persons cannot be kept long at po-
lice headquarters. They declare
Schunt will be sent away today or
early tomorrow, otherwise he will
probably die there, for he has three
broken ribs as the result of fall
down stairs during his rawlings and
he has refused to eat or drink since
he was put in the padded cell, about
9 O'Clock Saturday right.
DR.. Ramsay, who has generally
been the city physicians assistant il
committing insane persons to the
state hospital was bitter In his de.
nunciations Of Mr.. Seaman this af
ternoon for critisizing the action Of
doctors. He maintained there was
nothing else to do but send lunatics
away. He said more than one per
son had died as the result of neglect
In being kept too long at police head
quarters here.
The cost for each person sent tC
the state hospital averages SIS
Each physician gets $25 of thai
amount, $40 is the usual cost
charged by the city marshal and C
A. Sexton for automobile hire and Sc
or $40 for an assistant and incident
ais.

Is alleged, and it was found that
Prentiss wanted to make no money

been stated previous to his nomina-

or other aid from the Progressive
National Committee, that he had not
lived long in the district and was
therefore weak" candidate i'll the
eyes of state headquarters.
Governors Questioned.
Various members Of the board of
governors of the Raritan Roosevelt
Club were interrogated as to their
part in the arrangement whereby one
Of their fellow board members and
active club workers had been forced
to withdraw by the state committee
on the ground that the club consid-
cred him weak candidate.
The Raritan Roosevelt Club up to
the present time one of the most
iourishing T. r. clubs in the state is
constituted on thoroughly progress

nine governors who In turn select
president of the board and the board
has power in an advisory capacity
only By a provision of the bylaws
