LIVE STOCK AND DAIRY.

Where the COW or horse is inclined
to eat too rapidly for perfect mastica-
ton OF grain scatter the feed out well
in the trough and mix several cObs,
sticks or any clean articles with it,
which will cause the animal to lose
much time and take smaller bites in
showing the obstacle around to secure
mOuthful.
The successful stOckman must know
what each of his animals is doing each
day. With the dairy herd it is com
paratively easy to keep track of each
days record, simply by weighing the
milk each time the cows are MIXED.
1t requires but fraction of minutes
time each milking and enables one to
know at once if for any reason one or
more cows are falling off in their milk
and to remedy the cause before Il seri-
Gus loss has been sustained. Testing
for butter fat need not be done often
er than once or twice month. but
milk should be weighed at each milk
ing.
Stable ventilation consists in taking
out the foul air and replacing it with
pure air and retaining a comfortable
temperature. Cracks in the weather
boarding will not bring about this con-
dition.

OPPOSE COLD STORAGE BILL.

Washington, Feb. 4.-With view OF
ascertaining the opinions of those most
closely concerned, the House Commit
tee on Interstate and Foreign Com
merce today began series of public
hearings on the Mcclellan cold storage
bill, which proposes to limit the time
of storage of perishable commodities
from two to six months. The cold
storage interes SITS and the produce mer-
chants of the country are protesting
vigorously against the measure. 1t is
claimed that its enactment will dis
courage production, destroy the col
lateral value of perishable products
and be detrimental to the consumer
in the end, because cold storage ware
houses are necessary, to not regulate
prices and are used to store goods il
times of overproduction to inset thu
necessity of the time of a short supply
Norway, Sweden and other foreigl
countries have also protested through
the State Department against the pre-
visions of the bill, alleging that
would seriously embarrass their trad
