ers. Not only must the mixers
hands be clean, but the nails should
be manicured, that they may not
scratch or tickle. From the most up
to-date dairies the curry-comb has
been banished as the instrument Of
the cows matutinal massage. Its
place has been taken by the vacuum
cleaner.
These statements are not humor-
Gus exaggerations. They are derived
from most serious monographs issued
from scientific experiment stations
and from the rules laid down for en-
ployes by enterprising dairymen. A
current news item records that a
New Jersey dairyman has now pro-
vided a professional manicure to see
that the mixers nails are in order
before they begin to milk.
"In logical developments of these
advanced ideas we shall doubtless
hear next that it Is no longer in order
to recite on entering the COW barn
the old nursery rhyme:
"'Come, pretty cow, let down your
milk, and l will give you a gown of
SILK
These are realistic as we'll as SCI
entific days in the dairy, and the COW
should accordingly be promised some
thing she could both use and enjoy.
Perhaps this might be substituted.
Come, pretty COW, I need the
cash; for milk III give you a warm
bran mash
Then, while milking, the mixer
might recite soothing selections from
the poets in praise of the cow. The
Vedic Hymns contain a large num-
Der of such poems. They are COM
mended to the attention Of the mod
ern bucolic muse as sources of inspir-
alton. Then when the operation is
concluded the mixer might recite
Ann Taylor's lines:
"'Thank you, pretty cow. that
made pleasant milk to soak my
bread etc.
However, anyone who has ever
tried 1t must remain skeptical Of the
possibility Of teaching a calf to drink
without using language that would
not be admitted to a family news
paper. That's a task like driving
mules"

years. The reasons for non-use are
that 1t does not pay to breed from
such horses, their stock being ineligi-
BILE to record and as a rule inferior to
horses of approved breeding.
The uniform experience of breed

perience warranted the conclusion
that the COW thus approached was far
more likely to kick the mixer
through the side of the barn.
"Of late years the cow-barn code
OF manners and morals has developed

Why Discard the
Grade Stallion

THE horse breeders of Europe have
! had good reasons for discarding
grade stations from their breeding
operations and they should be gener-
ally understood.
The chief reason is that until a
special type of horse has long been
bred pure in one direction, neither
stations nor mares representing that
type possess the power of stamping
their character upon their offspring.
That power is termed ''prepotency,"
and 1t is the power lacking in a ma
jority of low-grade stations and in
sufficiently present in many high
grade horses.
Grade horses possess pure blood,
but not enough of it to endow them
with marked breed or individual pre-
potency, while many home-bred stall
lions, graded up from native or
mixed-bred stock and possessed Of
five or yer more t%op-crosses of pure
blood, but not eligible to registry in
stud books recognized by the Govern
ment, are not s certain of transmit
ting the characteristics of the breed
OF their pure-bred sires as are even
comparatively short-bred, imported.
registered stations.
The reason for this is that the i'm
ported horses, and those bred in
America from imported sires and
dams, spring from stock produced in
countries where all Of the horses
have, for many generations, been
practically purebred. though possibly
non-registered.
Breed prepotency is well illustrated
by the fact that a bull of any one of
the old-established hornless. breeds,
such as the Aberdeen-Angus, Gallo
way or Red Poll, has the power to be-
get hornless offspring from some 80
per cent of his horned mates.
These hornless grade Polls, how
ever, do not possess like power, IL
retained for breeding purposes, and
SO we'll Is this understood that, wher-
ever hornless cattle are wanted, pure
bred polled bulls, rather than grade
polled bulls, are employed. So, too,
the purebred bull Of special breed Is
Tor should be) invariably used to
produce cows for dairying, for each
purebred Ayrshire, Guernsey, Hol-
stein, or Jersey bull possesses strong
ly the breed prepotency to endow his
offspring with the special capabilities

breed.
