DAIRYING i;: EUROPE
First Essential Is Elimination of
"Star Boarders."
"V Country Has Natural Advantages
for Production of Dairy Products
Enjoyed by United States Ef
ficient Cows Required.
It is the history of the world that
it Is not the largest nations that have
done the really great things. In the
dairy world it has remained for the
little countries of Denmark, llolland
and Scotland to achieve the most eco
nomical production of high-grade
dairy products. The production of
clean milk Is what every American
dairyman must come to before we
can hope to attain for our dairy prod
ucts the high standard of excellence
so conspicuous In the dairy products
of the above countries.
In general. Europeoan dairymen
have learned most thoroughly that to
make money In dairying the first es
sential is to eliminate every "star
boarder" that pulls down the profits,
and to have a good herd, a herd in
which every individual cow Is an eco
nomical producer of a high order.
The American dairyman should
wake up to the full realization of his
natural advantages in the cheap feed
and good markets, and go at dairying
in earnest, realizing that it requires
brains, study and common sense to
succeed. He should fit up convenient,
substantial and permanent buildings,
and not shift from one phase of agri
culture to another, but stay at dairy
ing for a lifetime. In no country does
everything give place to dairying as it
does In Denmark and Holland.
There Is no dairy country, though
the land may be worth $1,000 an acre,

that has the natural advantages
for the production of dairy products
enjoyed by the United States. None of
tne intensive dairy countries of Eu
rope can produce and creserve in
good condition for winter feeding of
dairy cows the amount of digestible
nutrients per acre that can be se
cured In our own country with corn
silage and alfalfa hay.
One of the first thlnes that attracts
the attention of the traveler in Hol
land Is the large number of fine black
and white cattle. Everywhere, as far
as the eye can reach.- the landscarje
was1 dotted with fine cowb. A more
beautiful dairy scene could scarcely be
Imagined. History tell's us that for
2,000 years Holland has been famed for
Its cattle. HolBtein-Preisians are the
cows of that section, and during the
past 40 years they have spread so ran-
idly to America that at present this
breed Is found in almost every state
In the Union.
Successful dairying denends lanrelv
upon efficient cows, keeping them
comfortably at all times by properly
supplying their wants, and treating
them kindly. In this particular the
Dutch cannot be excelled. Holland is
often called the cows' paradise, and
It well deserves the name.
The history of the rise of d&Irvlnir
in Denmark Is one of the most Inter
esting and instructive chapters in agri
culture. To show the marvelous re
cent development In Danish dairying
It Is only necessary to state that the
receipts from cows at the Dresent time
are more than 17 times what they
GOOD NOTES OF DAIRY FARM
Excellent Plan to Have Two Sets of
Milk Utensils, Always Keeping
Cans Sweet and Clean.
Powdered borax used occasionally
In place of soap will keep the milk
cans sweet 'and clean..
It is a good plan to have two sets
Df milk utensils. Rinse with clear
hot water In which there is a handful
of salt Use no soap, and let the uten
ills used for the night's milk have the
sun and air during the day, and those
used for the morning's milk leave the
air at night
Every dairy barn should be built on
high ground so that the water will
run away from It instead of toward It
and the yard should be thoroughly
Iralned with tiling.
Every calf intended for the dairy
should have Its horns eliminated by
the use of caustic when a week old.
Not one cow In 60 that Is confined to
the dairy barn gets as much water as
the needs.
We cannot expect the separator to
rork smoothly and easily unless all
were 30 years ago. From the million
dairy cows of Denmark is exported
200,000,000 pounds of butter a year,
worth $44,000,000.
The Danes do not have as good a
climate or soil as is enjoyed In many
parts of our own country. They have
small patches of different crops and
cannot take advantage of four-horse
teams, large implements and machin
ery as we can. They cut much grain
by hand and many of their methods
are laborious.
The Important question, then, is:
How can the Danes affcrd to import

and feed our corn, as he does, and
sell his butter In competition with us.
He does this by being a close student
of all the principles of dairying. He
understands that dairying requires
brains, thought and skill; that he
must have efficient cows, economically
fed and well cared for. There muBt
be great opportunities ahead of the
American dairyman if Denmark can
profitably feed our grain and main
tain through dairy exports, her place
as one of the most thrifty nations of
the world.
PREPARING FOR THE WINTER
Thoroughly Clean and Disinfect Poul
try Houses Before Cold Weather
Flock Should Be Culled.
The poultry houses should be thor
oughly cleaned and disinfected and all
old boards or rubbish that may be
lying around should be removed, writes
a Kentucky man In Farm and Home.
Examine the houses and, if necessary,
repair the roof. Then apply a liberal
coat of whitewash Inside and outside
and to the nest boxes and perches.
When the chickens are brought in
from the range to be housed they
should be rigidly culled, discarding ev
ery specimen that is not normally de
veloped or that is overgrown, under
sized, or defective in any way.
The comb Is one of the best indexes
of a fowl's health, and If the pullets
have bright red combs well developed,
with proper care they are liable to be
on the Job as egg producers during
the winter. Changing the birds from
free range to winter quarters very
often affects the health of some, and
for this reason It becomes necessary
to make a Becond culling in about two
weeks.

The uneven running of separators is
the cause of imperfect separation.
Keep Constant Watch.
Kwp a sharp lookout for vermin.
No stock can do their best where
these pests appear. Spraying In the
winter is not always convenient,
though a dash of kerosene about the
stalls will help materially in keeping
the pests down. If applied with a
fine sprayer It soon evaporates, yet not

Is best to keep Jerseys or Guernseys.

Not Worth Paying For.
Ed and. Joe were walking along a
country road one hot day In July and
became very thirsty, but could not
find any water. Coming at last to a
farmer's bouse, and noticing a woman
standing In the door, they went up to
her and requested a drink of water.
She said: "We haven t had any
rain for three weeks and the well is
dry."
"Then please give us a drink of
milk."
The woman replied that the milk
was all taken to market but added
that she had some buttermilk stored
away and would give the thirsty trav
elers a drink of it.
After quenching their thirst with
buttermilk they offered to pay the
kind woman for it but she refused
the money, saying: "I was going to
give it to the pigs, anyway." Pitts
