my subject and there is always com
ing before my mind when come to
TINS Phase or the dairy business the
!, utter poverty Of language to express
fully what know, and yet can find
no words to express adequately, and
with all how little l know. II you
expect to succeed. In the dairy bust
ness you must as far as possible get
acquainted with your cows. Each
anu every one of them has an tndi-
yiuuality as positively peculiar to
each individual as your, own indt-
yluuality Is peculiar: TO you. Tney
cannot talk to you in your language,
put II you study them as you must,
you viii learn things that no one
!! KNOWS who thinks .tOh she Is only
a cow CulIisate every perceptiye
Iacully you possess, talk 60 them
genlly aiwaysiI you can, II you can
not, now, learn lo.at any cost, mas
ter your temper, know more tnan
your COW, ana the time will soon
come wnen they will love you anu be
at nome in your, company, and you
are OH the roau to success, in 1dct,
you are already there. @ "
kalse5 your caves from your cho1-
cest cows TO keep up your dairy,
ana all along the line from their
earliest infancy, study them, care
fer them, ana treat them as i have
Indicated in the. case Of the COW, and
as they come to maturity, keep, milk
breed from, only the pest. A. COW
fresh the second time that isn't
more than paying her board, Is. fit
only for the +shambles and neither
that COW nor her progeny is worth
keeping on your dairy farm. ESQ
come now to a subject on which
a lifetime of experience and obser-
walton enables me to speak with au-
thority. II you are keeping breed
of horned cattle, dehorn every one
of them, old and young, just as soon
as the flies are out OF the way, and:
horns. A vicious old brute with
any number she or he can get in
reach Of any day worse than it win
hurt to dehorn the creature il 1t is
well done and give care, and the
keeping of your stock will be inf
nitely easier for all time and just
as much better for the stock 5
But / must hasten for it is time.
You have probably concluded that Il
am in love with cattle. am. |.
love even the pigs, and the cattle,
pigs sheep all the stock, know it
when I am near them. They are our
friends and 1t will be we'll with us
II we realize that fact and are ready
to repay it in kind. I'll not live to
see the time, but Il hope. always
have hoped, that the time would
come, as I feel sure it will, when
our dairy cattle will no longer bear
the designation Of Jersey. Guernsey,
Holstein, or any other foreign name.
but will be g Americans" finest and
best. The same diligent care that
made the Hereford" a prince among
cattle, will develop an American
without a peer. Take hold of N it
men and hasten the day. al !.
