NEGLECT VALUE OF RECORDS
Cow Bought at Low Price Not Always
Best lnvestment--Best TO Keep
Track Of Feed and Milk.

Is the cheaper-priced dairy COW
necessarily the better investment?
The question is well answered in the
following instance: A man wishing
a COW for dairy purposes called upon
a dairyman who kept milk records as
well as cost accounts. The buyer con-
fined his attention to two cows. One
of these would cost him SIS. the other
S175. The former was in good condi-
ton, but the dairy characteristics were
not as fully developed as they might
have been; the latter was the direct
opposite. The records of the two
cows we're shown the buyer, but he
was not as much interested in records
as he should have been. He did not
consider 1t worth while to sit down
and figure out which would be the bet
ter investment.

bruises, assesses, or boards from fox
tail; or it may be the result of a Sc
we're attack of pink eye. You can tell
ulcers Of the cornea from pink eye by
means of the discharge. Instead of
pus, you will find an acid, watery fluid.
If 1t should be ulcer Of the cornea, OF
ulcers formed by very violent cases

the same. Take stick of nitrate of
silver, sharpen as you would 2 pencil,
get an attendant to hold the head Of
the calf. keeping the eyelids back, and
touch all parts of the ulcer lightly with
the stick Of silver nitrate. Wait few
minutes and battle eyes with a solu-
ton of salt water,
Repeat this operation in about three
days. Unless you have a distinct pro
lection on the cornea of the eye, do
net use the caustic treatment. Battle
several times day with sulphate of
zinc, 10 grains to a half pint of soft
water. Protect the eyes from flies
sunlight, etc.
