ed twice year. All COWS which re-
act, showing that they are infected
with the disease, should be removed
from the herd and the stable and
premises thoroughly disinfected. No
cattle should be added to the herd
without subjecting them to the tuber-
culin test before they are brought to
the farm. They should then be kept
separate from the other animals for at
least sixty days and retested. With
out the use Of tuberculin the owner Is
liable to be confronted with serious
and continuous losses. With its use
the disease can be eradicated from the
herd and the danger Of its spread to
man from this source removed.
Groom tho Dairy Cow.
Special attention should be given to
the condition Of the udder, and any
milk which appears Shiny, ropy, wa
terry or otherwise abnormal should not
be used as food. AS a rule, milk
should not be used within fifteen days
before calving or during the first five
days after calv1ng. It Is we'll not to
use milk from COWS which have been
given powerful drugs, for it is known
that medicines of this kind often pass
through the tissues of the mammary
gland and into the milk
The external condition of the cow i
a most important factor in the prOduc
ton of clean milk. One Of the great
est sources of milk contamination is
the dirt on the animals body. It is
therefore essential that extra care be
taken to keep the COW free from accu-
mutations of mud and manure. Groom
ing is usually dispensed withf> as it
costs money. yet there is far more rea-
son for the daily grooming of an ami
NAL that produces human food than Of
a horse which hauls a manure spreader
or garbage wagon. Custom, how
ever, demands that the horse be kept
clean, and this custom must be extend
ed to include COWS on farms where
milk is produced. Cows on pasture
usually keep cleaner than when in the
barn; but, though they appear clean,
they may be very dusty and should be
brushed before each Milking When
kept in stables they require thorough
cleaning at least once day. 1t is we'll
to clip the long hairs from the udder,
TANKS and tail in order that dirt may
not cling to them. 1t is also desirable
that the bedding be clean, dry and
used In sufficient quantities to pro-
mote the comfort of the animal, espe-
cially where the floor is of concrete.
Milk Before Feeding.
The COW should not be groomed, bed
ded or fed Immediately before milking,
as these operations fill the stable air
with dust and bacteria. Frequent at
tent1On to the distribution of bedding
Is just as important as to supply
large amount Of it. Often a tour
through the stables the last thing at
night and few minutes attention to
the distribution of the bedding at that
time will save half an hours work of
cleaning the cows in the morning. If

CARING FOR COWS TO
GET BEST RESULTS

Prepared by United States department Of
agricultural
To have healthy COWS Is one of the
first essentials in the production Of
clean milk. If the cows are diseased
their milk is liable to contain disease
producing bacteria or be otherwise alb
normal. Such milk is neither clean
nor safe as an article Of food even
though there is no visible dirt in it.
The cows should be tested at least
once a year for tuberculosis by capa-

BRET liarte was the first writer TO

made his literary reputation in,erna-
tional Bret Hartc's stories were of n
new and original type. refreshing in
their realism and genuine humor He
only spent seventeen years in the Far
West. but to the end OF his DAYS it
furnished him with stuff out Of which
was woven the bright fabric of his
work.
This master of short-storv writing
was by nature scntimcntalist--a hu-
name philosopher. making very clear
that even the outcasts Of society have
good In them. He went TO California
at a happy time for catching all the
lights and shadows of a panorama,
which is unique In our history His
writings breathe almost universally
the air Of Gods great QUITO doors.
Bret Harte had an ambition to do for
the Storms what Washington Irving
had done for the Catskills. hence he
has given the world the great Western
story. which will forever be to the
glory and credit of the author.

his guest confdentially by the button
hole
DO you know, Brouillard, Hosford

influence you. Wen let Hosford go.
We needed him at first to sort of knock
things into shape; it takes a man of

Late in the evening Brouillard
passed out through the cafe of the
Metropole on his way to his quarters
| There were a few late diners at the

cent in evening regalia, was waddling
about among them like a glorified
head waiter
Holding the engineer for a moment
at the street door, "Tll been wanting

man with a quick-fung glance for the

There wouldn't be word said-not
