A GOOD COW.
Story of One Animal of Jersey Strain
Who Paid Her Owner a
Good Profit.
A dairyman who does not own many
cows, and those good ones, recently
gave the following figures concerning
one of his cows, a pure-bred Jersey, to
the Ohio Farmer.
Her first calf was dropped in 1897—
« heifer—now a valued member of the
herd. Her next calf came in 1898, with
a successor each year up to, the pres
ent, making nine calves in all. Three
were females and six males. The heif
ers have been retained in the herd and
the bulls sold at an average of $50
each. Valuing the heifers at the same,
the nine calves represent an earning
of $300, With her second calf she
made a test of 280 pounds of milk in
seven, days, churning 14 pounds, four
ounces of butter. Her average milk
yield has been 7,500 pounds, sold to a
creamery at an average of $1.20 per
100 pounds, an aggregate for eight
years of $720. Adding the value of the
calves to the amount received for milk,
her gross earnings amount to $1,080.
These figures are very eloquent for the
good special purpose cow, hut were not'
given to me, nor do I record them, as
anything extraordinary. An annual
yield of 7,500 pounds of five per cent, j
milk, while indicating a cow of great j
merit does not raise her above thou- i
sands of other good cows. She has
broken no records hut she has kept
the faith. She has always had good
care, good feed and plenty of it. She
has been given a chance. She is a
cow of robust constitution, a great
feeder, a strong milker and a reliable
breeder.
Her feed had been the ordinary feed
of the herd. Pasture and soiling crops
in summer, corn silage, mixed hay,
corn meal, wheat bran and oil meal in
winter. She has never been fed ex
cessively. but has never gone hungry
nor in any way known abuse.
THE LIVE STOCK.
Poor fences make Rood jumpers.
Clean cows result from proper stab
ling.
Feed, from the hand of the master,
fattens.
The new stable should have several
windows.
The cow holds her own in all kinds
of times.
Anything irregular affects the per
centage of butter fats.
If the horse has sore shoulders, it
is a pretty sure sign that his collar
does not tit him.
A new milker will at first get less
milk from a cow than one to whom
the animal is accustomed.
Culls and ewes that do not own or
rear their lambs properly, may be
turned off in the same way.
Old sheep should now be separated
from the rest ot the flock and given
extra care. They can be improved in
flesh and sent to market, where some
return can be realized from them.—

Every man that has a large number
of hogs should endeavor to give them
a good pasture. Too many breeders
are contented wttn a nop pasture that
la covered with native presses only.
Clovers and blue press make a pood
pasture for swine.
Science in Hog Raising.
The fact that we have been able to
make money out of hops even with the
most unscientific methods of breeding
and care is proof that under proper
conditions the hop will make his own-1
er rich. Scientific management means
the care of swine to keep away di
sease, obtain early maturity and keep 1
up the natural fecundity of the ani
mals.
dipping sheep for scab.
Prot. Thomas Shaw Gives Some Sug
gestions for the Treatment
of Sheep.
The dipping of sheep is practiced to
free them from ticks and also from
the presence of the scab mite. The
proprietary dips are used for the pur
pose as a rule, although the bureau
of animal industry still favors the use |
of the lime and sulphur dip, although j
much evidence has been brought for
ward to show that it injures the wool.
If applied just after shearing the I
sheep, this result would not follow.
Prominent among the proprietary dips
are chloronaprholeum. zenoleum and
certain preparations with tobacco as
the principal element in their potency. ;
The following is the fomula for
making the lime and sulphur dip:
Take eight to eleven pounds of un- j
slaked lime and add enough water to j
slake the lime, sift into this three 1
times as many pounds of flower of sul- I
phur as there were pounds of lirne at
the outset. Boil the mixture from two
to three hours, adding water when
necessary. Pour the mixture into a
tub, vat or barrel that it may be
drawn off through a spigot without,
sediment. When using this dip, it is
greatly important to keep the sedi
ment out of the mixture.
The common form of the infection
known as sheep scab causes greater
loss to the sheep industry in the Unit- 1
eil States than any of the external
parasites which prey upon them. It is
produced by minute insects, many of
which are too small to be seen with
out the aid of a microscope. Usually,
however, if a tuft of wool is pulled
out near the edge of the infected part,
little moving objects may be noticed
by the naked eye near the base of the
wool fibers, or among the scales ad- i
hering to them. They irritate the ]
skin uy biting, this causing an inflam
mation which produces an itching and
gives the sheep no rest. The inflam
mation is accompanied by scab forma
tion, under which the mites live.
The rubbing of the sheep carries the
scab to new centers, and thus the
work of torment is frequently carried
on simultaneously on different parts
of the body. The wool soon becomes
taggy and finally drops off in various
places.
The remedy, as intimated, is dip
ping. The sheep should be dipped
twice with an interval of eight to ten
days between the dippings. The sec
ond dipping is given to destroy any
mites that may have hatched out sub
sequent to the first dipping. As soon
as dipped the sheep should be removed
from their old surroundings and pas
ture grounds for a period of at least
20 days. The eggs hatch in two or
three days after they have been laid.
When the flocks are small, says the
Orange Judd Farmer, the dipping may
be done in a water-tight box made for
the purpose, into which the sheep are
lifted. They may also be dipped in
galvanized vats made for the purpose.
When large lots are to be dipped, how
ever, tanks made for the purpose are
necessary, through which the sheep
are made to swim, and from which
they are made to emerge at the farther
end. The construction of these cannot
be given to this paper. Sheep bought
at the stockyards may usually be dip
ped there, but it ought to be remem
bered that for scab one dipping is not
enough. The preparation of the pro
prietary dips is outlined in the direc
tions that accompany them.

Clean Yards for Swine.
Many of the hog yards found about
the country reek with filth. If swine
are to be kept healthy they should
be given clean yards. The hog is not
by nature a dirty animal, even if he
does wallow in mud. It is doubtful if
hog cholera would get a start if the
hog quarters were never allowed to
become filthy. Many and many a
farmer has had his hogs become sick
merely from the condition of the hog
yard. When the rains fall such yards
are a mass of mud, and when the
weather becomes dry they are filled
with fine dust, which gets into the
lungs of the animals and causes
symptoms similar to pneumonia and
to hog cholera. It Is possible on most
farms to have several hog yards, and
to keep the animals in one yard for
hut a short time. Such an arrange
ment is a most satisfactory one.
Feeding Barley.
Barley is fed everywhere to cows
in Denmark, and where used In this
country gives satisfaction. Here, how
| ever, wheat bran is much cheaper and
I much more easily obtained. From
'three to five pounds of ground barley
j is sufficient for a cow, and even this
| should be fed In connection with bran
; or some other feed.
The Pain
Family
You know them; they are
numerous, and make their
presence felt everywhere. The
names of the family are Head
ache, Toothache, Earache,
Backache, Stomach ache, Neu
ralgia, etc. They are sentinels
that warn you of any derange
ment of your system. When
the brain nerves become ex
hausted or irritated, Headache
makes you miserable; if the
stomach nerves are weak, in
digestion results, and you
double up with pain, and if the
more prominent nerves are af
fected, Neuralgia simply makes
life unendurable. The way to
stop pain is to soothe and
strengthen the nerves. Dr.
Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills do this.
The whole Pain family yield to
their influence. Harmless if
taken as directed.
"I find Pr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills an
excellent remedy tor overcoming head
ache, neuralgia and distressing pains
of nil sorts. I have used them for the
past seven years in this capacity with
the best of results.”
