c.ro.t IN Cows.

Most OF US are familiar with the in
famed, lumpy condition of the cow
udder which gives US lumpy milk and
an ailing cow. 1t is called garget, OF
mammitis. 1t is a serious ailment.
Gargety milk is unfit for use. and
should be carefully thrown away. 1t
Is asserted by those who ought to
know that it may cause severe sore
throats in people using the milk, and
especially in infants. Moreover. 1t is
unclean and diseased
Some stockmen think that the best
manner Of handling cases Of garget Is
to give the COW good ordinary care.
and let her get we'll Of her own ac-
cord-which she will ordinarily do in
about a weeks time. She will. how
ever, be found to have fallen of in her
milk yield.
The best judges, however, recon-
mend that the grain ration be cut
down to a third the regular feed. and
that she be fed Juicy and easily
digested ration Give also, as soon as
the garget is noticed, a pound and
half of epson salts as cathartic
Battle the udder for at least twenty
minutes three times a day with hot
water, and after this is dried of the
skin and the surrounding hair, rub
thoroughly with warm olive oil con-
tanning per cent Of gum camphor
Between these treatments keep the
udder pouiticed with warm poultices
of something like bran, oatmeal, lin-
seed meal. or bread and milk. Milk
the COW at least three times day. II
is better to do this carefully by hand II
possible, rather than use the teat
siphon. If pus forms in the udder IT
must be drawn of-and this is good
time to call in a good veterinarian.
Where these remedial measures are
resorted to early in the disease, the
COW will usually recover.
Prevention is better than cure, and
prevention is mostly matter OF
cleanliness and humane treatment.
The litter about the cows in stable or
yards should be clean, and occasionally
disinfected. The hands of the mixer
and the udders Of the cows should al
ways be kept absolutely clean, and II
the disease appears, great care should
be taken to wash and disinfect both
hands and udder after the affected COW
is MIXED.
To prevent garget. see that no kicks
and blows are bestowed on the cows;
milk them regularly, and often enough
to prevent too great pressure when
great flow Of milk is yielded; don't
hurry the cows when their udders are
overfull; keep them from exposure to
cold and wet. and keep them vigorous

abnormal that she may eat them up.
But if she is kept from being too fat
by the simple method of starvation,
she will not give the litter the proper
amount Of milk.
II the SOW becomes constipated be-
fore narrowing, as some sows do, EPSON
salts may be given in the Stop for three
or four feedings-just enough so that
the taste will not repel the SOW and
keep her from eating.
At narrowing time occur the most or
the pig losses. Some of them come
from the absence Of the owner when
the pigs arrive. and some from his
presence. The sow should be carefully
watched, but she should not be dis
turbed In other words. no dogs should
be allowed anywhere near. and she
should not become aware of the pres
ence of those who watch her. A good
brood SOW stealing her nest in the
grove or fields will on the average
bring to the feed trough a better litter
than the one which is fused over by
a solicitous owner. Yet she some
times needs help. Combine the merits
Of the two methods.
