after every separation. Partial clean

HARD MILKING cows.
Method Of Using Teat Plugs or Bis
toury to Relax Teats.

Method Of Using Teat Plugs or Bis
toury to Relax Teats.
A hard milking COW may be helped
by the use Of a teat plug or bistoury.
Teat plugs tend to relax the sphincter
muscle, which In such seems to
close the opening Of the teat so tightly
that 1t Is with difficulty that the milk
Is forced out. These plugs are made
of lead or hard rubber and are placed
In the teat duct and a tape tied around
the teat through the eye hole In the
plug. The plugs are worn from one
milking to another. This is continued
until the muscles are somewhat re-
Taxed and the opening remains larger.
II this does not give relief 1t would
be best to get a veterinarian to ex-
anime the teats and prescribe treat
ment. Liberal feeding is recommended.
The bistoury is an instrument which
IS easily slipped into the teat and the
little cutting knife thrust ont and
quickly removed. 1t is all over before
the animal realizes anything has hap
pened. The bistoury should not be
used when the cow iB dry. but when
she Is giving milk.-Hoard's Dairyman.

Open Air stables Endorsed.

Open Air Stables Endorsed.
Open air stables for dairy lows have
been indorsed by the Maryland ex-
pertinent station after three seasons
test. Compared with closed stables
the open stables were found to result
In the more economical production of
milk. lower cost Of construction and
better preservation Of manure The
cows were found to be just as clean
and the milk had fewer bacteria than
that produced in closed stables. Dur
ing the winter months the thermome-
ter in the open stables fell as low as
IA degrees below zero. but there was
no decided decrease in the production
Of milk attributable to low tempera-
lures. The only point in favor of clos
ed stables Is the greater comfort to the
men while. they are milking and caring
for the cows.-Farm and Fireside.

should at first be- given Whole warm
milk. but u week after it must learn
to drink some skinned milk. This
change should be gradual. SO that ut
the end of -four weeks only skinned
milk is given. The amount of skinned
milk should not exceed ten pounds per
day ut first. and this should he increas.
ed to fifteen pounds ut the end Of the
FIRST month. After that from twenty
to twenty-five pounds may be provided
daily.
The milk fed to calves should be
heated to 100 degrees and should be
sweet and clean. The fresher it is the
better. When the calves become two
weeks old a small quantity Of shorts.
c0rnmeal. linseed meal. oatmeal. iiax-
seed meal or Kaftir c"rn meal should be
added to the milk The meal should
be mixed with six parts of water and
boiled to a jelly before mixing with the
milk. At the end Of three Weeks
pound Of meal should be given to each
calf only. increasing the amount as
the animal grows older. When two
months old ground oats, wheat mid
dlings and the like may be introduced

should be eliminated entirely. Milk
may be entirely omitted after the first
five months. Roughage in the form Of
we'll cured clover hay or early cut
other hays will be eaten by the calves
while they are still very young If they
are placed in a rack In the pen where
the young animals have free access to
them. When the grass comes the
calves should be turned out to pasture
and such grains given daily as will
tend to develop the muscular system
instead Of fattening the animals.

Epilepsy In Pics.

Intestinal worms are a common
cause Of epilepsy in young pigs. The
spasms may also be due to an injury
Of spinal cord. Too close inbreedine
seems to favor the condition. II caus-
ed by intestinal worms relief can b.
obtained by clearing the intestinal
tract. Divide the pigs into sman
groups, withhold feed for twelve
hours and then give %turpentine In milk
at the rate Of a teaspoonful per eighty
pounds live weight Repeat for thres'
consecutive days. An attempt shoule
be made to prevent intestinal wosuso;
by providing dry, well drained loos,
free from mud holes and filth.

Cooking Feed For Hogs Pays.

Cooking feed for hogs is Il profitable
proposition. This is particularly true
when small grains. roots. vegetables.
etc. are to be mixed and fed to pigs
Much time has been wasted. much
valuable space in agricultural papers
devoted to the pros and cons Of giving
feed raw or cooking It. Without any
doubt It has been firmly established
that cooking feed II q profitable prop
osition. For animals that have adj
vanced somewhat in age, cooking Il
exceedingly satisfactory and profitable.
This IL also true Of young stock and
stock which must ne fattened quickly.

and this should be removed after the

be put II the corner, and no more

readily. Throwing roughage before a
COW gets her into the habit Of eating

The Guernsey COW gives milk al
most as rich in butter fat Is the
Jersey, but it gives q greater guam
tity. The Guernsey COW is q larger
animal than the Jersey. so it be-
comes more valuable for beef and
its calves for veal when sold to the
butcher. It Is also q harder ami
NAL than the Jersey. in this respect
being more nearly like the Ayr
shire. For grading up a herd Of
common COWS the Guernsey bull is
a great success. The offspring are
stamped with Guernsey quality.

Representative Frank L. Greene of st
Adams on the workings of Congress- Mr.
Greene explained clearly the plan on
which business in the national legislative
body IS done, contrasting it with the way
IN which state legislative work is conduct
ed. He emphasized the scope of the bust
ness which Congress Is called upon t.
handle by mentioning the number and va
nety of subjects with which it deals. and
pointed out the necessity for depending
wholly upon committees instead of con
sldering each bill on the floor. BY way Of
correcting the popular impression that the
national house of representatives Is an
unsystematic body, he outlined in detail
the method by which business is transact
ed, calling attention to the we'll ordered
program that is laid out for each day and
the variety of business that each repre-.
sentative Is called upon TO handle in the
way OF correspondence, committee work
study, etc Representative Greene's talk
was full of graphic illustrations, and tho
information which it conveyed was educa
