An Essex correspondent OF the Lon
don Daily Mail writes: This morning
I witnessed a strange sight in which a
herd Of cows. an old bull and few
calves took part in a meadow near my
house.
A cow that had recently calved died
in the night and yesterday morning
lay out stiff on t6e>frosted grass be.
meath tree. During the day cows
roamed near the place and stopped to
smell and lick the side and face Of
the dead animal. Not till this MORN
ing did the knacker's cart arrive. to
carry the body away.
When the vehicle was drawn to the
spot the whole herd came slowly up
and stood round watching intently,
with heads down, and an indescrib.
able expression. which seemed half
questioning and half sympathetic. in
their eyes. Seven of them and the
old bull came up and licked the dead
cows face, in one instance as 1t was
being hoisted into the cart. When it
was taken away they stood watching
It to the far side of the meadow and
through the gate till they could see It
no longer Then they smelled all over
the spot where 1t had lain.

Do Animals Love Music?

! was awakened the other morning
by the clatter Of horses hoofs and
mans voice singing Killarney"
says a writer in the London Daily Ex-
press. Peeping through the venetian
blind saw that a young Midland
railway carter was the vocalist. and
that his horse, which was harnessed
to heavily-laden van, was following
him in a zig-zag fashion. across and
up the steep road which runs past my
windows. He was not using a whip
or touching the reins. and the horse
kepe his nose near his shoulder. but
when the man stopped singing, the
horse stopped pulling. I have heard,
the land girls shy they sing to the
horses and cows they look after, and
that thu" animals love 1t, and know
in India some of the hardest labor
is done by oxen. driven-not with
whip or goad-but by the singing Of
the native boys In charge Of them.
