The study of nearly 700 year record
Of cows In the Vermont station herd
and of over 400 lactations prompts
the following statements:
To determine annual milk and but
ter yields with relatively little effort
and with a close enough approxima
tion to accuracy to serve every pur
pose: 1. Weigh the milk of each cow for
three days monthly. At the end qf the
yenr add these results and multiply
MILK SCALES, SAMFLKK AND JAB.
by ten, making such corrections for
time of calving and drying off as cir
cumstances indicate. I
2. Test the milk of each cow twice
or thrice yearly, using two composite
Bamples taken as follows:
(a) For cows calving normally In
the mouths of September to February
Inclusive and due to calve again in a
reasonable time in the third and fifth,
or in the third and seventh, or in the
second, fifth and seventh, or iu the
second, fourth and seventh, or in the
third, fifth and seventh months after ;
calving. The outcome is likely to be
Within .30 per cent fat of the truth
nine times in ten.
(b) For cows calving normally in the
months of March to August inclusive
and due to calve again in a reasonable
time in the third, fifth and seventh
months after calving. The outcome is
likely to be within .30 per cent fat of
the truth five times in six.
(c) For cows calving normally and
tending to go dry early in the third
and sixth months after calving. TJie
outcome is likely to be within .30 per
cent fat of the truth nine times In ten.
(d) For .cows which have aborted in
the third and fifth or in the third and
sixth months after calving. The out
come is likely to be within .30 per cent
fat of the truth more than nine times
In ton.
(e) For farrow cows when their con
dition does not follow abortion any
combination of the fourth or fifth
month's test with that of either the
thirteenth or fourteenth month linked
with that of any month from the sev
enth "to the eleventh inclusive. The
outcome Is likely to be within .30 per
cent fat of the truth seven times In
eight,.
In each case add the results and di
vide by the number of tests, two or
three, as the case may be, for calculat
ed average test for the year.
Restraining the Kicker.
Some of the devices recommended
lor preventing a cow, from kicking are
likely to prove ruindus to the animal.
Commenting upon one such, a writer
In the Breeder's Gazette, Chicago,
says:
"I inclose sketch that I will guaran
tee to prove just as effective and not
nearly as dangerous. The rope or
EFFECTIVE AND SAFE DEVICE.
trap is placed just above the hock on
the . right leg, and from there it is
placed just below the hock on the left
leg, and in this manner it will be im
possible for the animal to raise her leg
on the side of the man who is milking
her.
Fancy Stock, Fancy Price.
It Is getting to be a common thing
for fancy stock to bring fancy prices.
The last sale reported is that of Third
Pledge Clothilde, a cow which recent
ly produced over 100 pounds of milk
In a day. Her record is 643.9 pounds
of milk and 30.3S pounds of butter in
seven days. She was sold by E. H.
Knapp & Son of Fabius, N. T., to D.
W. Field, Brockton, Mass.,for $6,000.
E. H. Dollar of Huvelton, N. Y sold
the famous cow Pontiac Rag Apple for
,000 about a year ago to the same
people. After Colantha IV.'s Johanna
made her famous record Mr. Gillett
sold Colantha Johanna Lad for $8,000
to the Fields Kimball Dairy Farmer.
The Hustling Devon.
Every man in the short grass coun
try who has owned a Devon cow Is
enthusiastic as to the utility of the
tjreed for the range country. The hus
tling and rustling characteristics are
predominant, aud, while the cattle are
Smaller than the Hereford or Short
horn, they produce beef -at low cost
and the milting propensity is a most
pleasing and profitable factor, remarks
a western exchange.
TRAIN THE CONSUMER. I
Gentle " Reminders For Customer of '
the Dairyman.
It is up to the milk producers to ed
ucate the consumers in the care of
milk, for the very best lacteal fluid
ever sold may be deteriorated or ruin
ed by a few minutes of thoughtless
ness in the kitchen department. Some
suggestions for milk customers come
from a Canadian source as follows:
Immediately milk is received by the
consumer It should be put In a cool
place, on ice if possible, and kept cool
until a portion, or all is used. Do not
open a bottle until you intend to use
the milk and avoid disturbing the milk
after it has been opened unless abso
lutely .necessary. The more it is han
dled or poufed from one vessel to an
other the more quickly it will lose fla
vor and become sour. Milk Is also
ever ready to absorb flavors and odors
from surrounding substances. -
The careful mistress need not be
warned to protect milk from dust and
to keep it out of the sun. Even the
painstaking mistress sometimes for
gets that dust is a greater injury to
milk than to any other food. Every
particle of dust which falls on the
surface of milk carries "with it' bac
teria which will develop rapidly in
their new home and assist in the
work of destruction. The whole body
of milk is no better than the poorest
portion going to make it up. Be very
careful, therefore, not to mix new
milk with old. It is wise to keep
milk that has been -opened by itself
until used. Have several small pitch
ers instead of one or two large ones
for keeping the milk in. It is well
to make a practice of scalding and
cooling the vessel just before the milk
Is placed in it. It is a commendable
practice to keep certain vessels for ex
clusive use as milk receptacles.
Cost of Filling Silo.
Professor King found that the av
erage cost of cutting and putting corn
Into the silo on a number of Wisconsin
farms was 58.8 cents per ton.
Professor Georgeson of Kansas found
that it cost 62.3 cents, 70.9 cents and
50.8 cents for three different silos, or an
average of G1.3 cents per ton of silage
put ma.
T. L. Allen, Kinsman, O., says: With
modern machinery and good manage
ment com c:'.n be put into the silo at
35 to 40 ceu;s per ton. indeed, with
our largo machinery and strong force
of n;ea we have put it in the silo for
less than DO cents.
C. J. Zintheo, an expert in farm me
chanics, concludes"' that, with the larger
and improved ensilage cutters having
self feeders and blowers and with best
methods in handling the corn, it is safe
to say that corn may be harvested and
put into the silo at an average of 50
cents per ton.
Home Inspection of Milk.
The report of a conference appointed
by the commissioners of the District
of Columbia on sanitary milk produc
tion has just been issued, and it rec
ommends among other things that
"consumers of milk be urged to pa--tronize
no milk dealer whose milk aft
er standing for two hours or less re
veals a visible sediment at the bottom
of the bottle, as such a sediment is
evidence of dirty habits, extremely
suggestive of danger and entirely pre
ventable by clean, decent methods
without greatly increasing the cost of
the milk. The consumer should fur
thermore subject the milk that he re
ceives, unless it come from a tuber
culin tested herd and from a source
otherwise above suspicion, to a process
of purification by bringing it to' the
boiling point, cooling it immediately
and thereafter keeping it on ice."
An Ancient Fraud.
Let us again caution our readers
against buying churns which aro
claimed by agents to double or treble
the yield of butter and also against
attempting to sell the product of such
churns and methods. These churns,
with the aid of the agent's chemicals,
incorporate other milk solids with but
ter fat and apparently increased the
yield of butter, but it isn't butter and
its sale is illegal. This is an ancient
fraud, concludes National Stockman,
often exposed, but apparently still go
ing on in some places.
Oats For Milk Cows.
According to Professor Thomas Shaw,
oats as a food for milk cows are su
perb. Were It not for their dearness
they would be used to a much greater
extent in feeding milk cows than at
present They are a good food for the
pregnant cow. Pound for pound, they
are as good as bran for milk produc-
tion, and some-persons consider them
better. Even in the form of hay, when
cut at the proper stage, they are a sat
isfactory food.
Needs a Good Engineer.
The cow is a living machine. Kind
! treatment entails less labor and gives
more milk.' Good work Improves the
living machine.
FEEDING FOR MILK.
Feed the cows their grain or mash at
milking time. This keeps them quiet
and contented.
There Is not much milk In overripe,
sun cooked timothy hay. It is only
really good to sell.
Our cows are fed silage morning and
evening after each milking. We mix
bran and ground oats with this and
give them all the silage they will eat
up clean. They also get clover hay
and some wild hay H. P. J.
The nutritive value of pea .hay Is
one-half greater than that of clover
hay, according to the Indian experi
ment station.
IMPRESSIONS ABROAD,
British Thoroughness and Love T -
Good Blood.. V:
That one who has traveled to the
various countries of the globe and
studied the conditions there ia "glad te
get back under the stars and tripes,
where taxes are reasonable and where
freedom reigns,"-is the opinion of a
loyal son of Iowa expressed ia the
Homestead on reaching home, to which
sentiment, however, he frankly adds
this appreciation of English methods:
England unquestionably, is a great
place for good live stock. The reason
for this is that they have persisted in
raising good ones, and they are now
reaping their reward. I presume that
Americans will achieve the same Te
sults when they have been in the busi
ness as 'long as their cousins across
the water. I certainly believe that it -pays
us to introduce the best blood
that we ' can find abroad into our
flocks and herds here. '
A study of English methods of sheep
breeding reveals the fact that great
pains have been taken there about ,
the selection of the sires. They never
stop at a few dollars If they can find
something good. "
Foreign Thoroughness.
Joe Wing of Ohio, favorably known
as a sheep grower throughout this
country and home again after spend
ing some months in Europe, writes to
the Breeder's Gazette, Chicago. What
has he got out of his journeyings?
A great deal, he hopes. He has come
home less boastful than he was.,
America is a grand country, but we
can yet learn much, must learn much.
We need not lose our loyalty to see
our faults. We have not learned it all.
We deceive ourselves sometimes by
underestimating what other peoples
have done. In some things they are
behind us, no doubt. Sometimes they
seem to have less energy, but they
make, up for that in thoroughness.
They are not stationary either; they
progress quite as fast as we, espe
cially in Denmark and Scotland.
We immensely lack in energy and
enterprise when it comes to devoting
an entire neighborhood tp growing one
sort of horse or cow or sheep and to
making that sort the very best We
are too much inclined to independence
of thought and action. We cannot
agree. I breed, for instance. Hack
neys; my neighbor will take ""Shires,
his neighbor Percherons, the next'man
trotters; the next fellow believes in
mixing bloods as much - as possible,
and a lot of us will choose the cheap
stallion that insures to "stand and
suck." Thus we 'do not get ahead as
we would if we adopted the Scottish
plan of horse associations, neighbors
pledged to use a splendid sire, com
mittees hunting him up and securing
him, and all pledged . to support him
by liberal service fees. We will never
reach their level of success till we
have more unity of action and more
steadfastness of purpose.
LIVE STOCK NOTES.
. The American Breeders' association
will hold its next annual meeting Jan.
28-30 in the National Rifles' armory at
Washington. The secretary "of the as
sociation is W. 31. Hayes of the de
partment of agriculture. "
Don't Pick Up a Scrub.
Live stock gets scrubby fast enough
even when good males are used, and
I ic is a snortsigmeu yunuy to imsieii m
process by breeding from an inferior
male. Do not wait around until you
are absolutely in need of a male and
then go and pick up somebody's scrub.
Type of American Carriage Horse.
The &:pe desired for the American
carriage horse, as decided upon by a
representative committee of American
breeders and horsemen-, is as follows:
Not under fifteen hands for mature
horses; smooth, compact and symmet
rical conformation; neck of good length,
inclined naturally to arch; sloping
shoulders; well set legs of medium
length; sloping pasterns and good feet;
short, strong back; well sprung ribs,
Well ribbed up to coupling; smooth
loins; full flanks; straight croup, with
well set tail; full, round buttocks.
Cabbage as Feed.
The Cornell station says that in the
search for good succulent feeds for
live stock the cabbage should not be
overlooked. As high as fifty tons of
cabbage per acre have been grown at
Cornell, yielding nearly four tons of
dry matter and containing one ton of
nitrogenous matter.
The Colt's Feet
Keep a good rasp handy and use It
Judiciously In keeping the feet of the
colts level and of proper shape. Don't
let the, toes become too long.
Eternal vigilance Is the price of lib
erty. It is also indispensable in order
to keep the colts free from worms and
lice and their feet free from thrush.
A foot pick -is a much more impor
tant implement in the colt stable than
the currycomb or brush. When the
Roles of the feet are picked clean and
washed every day there is little dan
ger that they will become affected
with thrush. Horse Breeder,
Horse Stealing.
In regard to the operations of horse
thieves, which in some parts of the.
country have been assuming unusual
boldness, a western exchange remarks:
The organized vigilance of a communi
ty is the best safeguard against horse
stealing or any other kind of thievery.
Where antihorse thief and protective
associations exist nine out of every
ten thieves are caught, and at this
rate they soon give np such communi
ties. .The time to organize Is before
the property Is stolen. That it is wise
to lock the stable door bsfore the horse
ts stolen is a proverb which applies
very aptly to this case.
The Good Quern wr. -,
X man may d think three or torn
times before he pays large pries s?
a pedigreed animal. When tne peav
gree Is true - and the animal traces
back to noted ancestors a cattle owner
cannot do better than introduce pure
blood into his herd. There are plenty
of honorable men in the business who
- DAIBX GENTLEMAN OF GCERNSEI.
'would no more think of substituting
an inferior animal for a good one than
they would of committing gery.
Here is a picture of a good (Guernsey
bull. He is an imported animal and
when photographed was two years old.
He is well marked and colored, a fine
specimen of the breed, says Rural New :
Yorker. '
The Guernseys are very popular with '
those who know them. They have
never been imported as largely as the ;
Jerseys, and heir owners have not at- j
tempted to boom them by spectacular
; methods. The island of Guernsey is
smaller than that of Jersey, with fewer :
cattle on it- The Guernsey is a larger
framed cow than the Jersey, with a j
quieter disposition and averaging even j
Detter as a uuuer prouuuer. j-iie
Guernseys -have remarkable power to
give high color to milk and butter fat.
In many Holstein herds where milk is
solda few Guernseys are kept to give
a good color to. the product. As the
Guernseys are often spotted it is easier
. to identify" specimens by their mark
ings, and the Guernsey Cattle club is
very careful of its records.
r. Dogs on Dairy Farms.
An Indiana dairyman has discovered
that it does not pay to send the dog
after the cows or even to allow one
around the lots in which the dairy herd
is quartered f(jr the night, says Farm
ers Advocate. In a personal letter he
has the following to say:
"i am convinced that a ,dog on the
dairy farm is the cause of more loss
than any other agent. I have been ex
perimenting for over a year and believe
that I know what I am talking about.
A test made recently shows about the
same as' the average of the others
made before. The dog was sent after
a cow which was grazing about eighty
rods from the house. The animal came
with the usual haste and was milked
at once. The milk was tested, and it
showed a butter fat content of 2.8 per
cent. The following morning the milk
was again tested, when it showed a
butter fat content of 4.1 per cent. Three
days later the cow was driven up by
the hired man and the milli tested at
0.3 per cent. The following morning it
tested 0.5 per cent. I have made this
experiment so many times with the
same results that I am led to conclude
that it is reliable. The difference
amounts to nearly a pound of butter
in the cow giving twenty-two pounds
of milk per day."
Cap Raise Good Ones.
I recently sold a bull calf, born in
April, 1900, that weighed 1,025 pounds,
writes a dairyman in Kimball's Dairy
Farmer. I have one left a little over
nine months old that weighs S15
pounds. I mention these figures iu
order that you may judge whether I
am able to raise calves or not Pos
sibly I shall' have to study up more
on this subject. These calves never
sucked their dams a day, and when
less than thirty days old they were get
ting all skim milk. At an early age
they got acquainted with oats weigh
ing thirty-six pounds to the bushel, and
they have stayed by these ever since.
1 think this combination makes a pret
ty good calf feed after all.
