Trilby aad Pretty ar resting now; I plan to give them six weeks each before freshening. They do better when given such a rest. We now have two substi tutes that are furnishing tha milk in their "place. Fanny and Buttercup ar fresh.- This morning Fanny gave, twenty - and three- " fourths pounds of excellent milk. This even- " ing aha will glva perhap a pound lees. Thla morning Buttercup gave eighteen pounds and ths evening eh will give a like mesa.
