A COW WITH A RECORD.
Noted Member of the Guernsey Fam
ily Which Has Numerous Progeny.
Glen wood Girl VI. belongs to one
of the noted Guernsey families. Her
mother, Glenwood Girl, was imported
in her dam in 1883 and has given, birth,
to seven daughters and four bulls. All
of Glenwood Girl's daughters are alive
except Glenwood Girl II., which had
to be killed on account of an injury.
In every dairy herd there is usually
some cow that is a great deal better
Guernsey Cow, Glenwood Girl VI.
than all the rest, one that is capable
of producing large yields of milk and
fat, and at the same time gives birth
to many strong and large producing
animals. The science of breeding lies
in the judicious use that is made of
the best, blood in the herd. In order
to obtain the best results, records
must be kept of not only the amount,
of product yielded, but a breeding rec
ord, which should show the strong
characteristics of the animal, as well
as the weak.
Glenwood Girl VI. is considered one
of the best individuals of this family
and her heifers are making good rec
ords and her bulls are producing some
very fine stock. These facts all show
that Glenwood Girl was a very pre
potent animal and that she has trans
mitted to her daughters and bulls the
same good trait.
Glenwood Girl VI. has a yearly rec
ord of 12,184 pounds of milk: average
test, 4.69 per cent., and 572 pounds of
fat, equivalent to 687 pounds of but
ter.

Can Be Delivered in Good Order by
Proper Care.
The chief difficulty in the way of
success in all creameries where the
cream is collecteu instead of the milk
is the difficulty of getting the cream
lelivery in a sweet, clean flavored
condition. Patrons who deliver milk
know that it must be delivered sweet
daily, or at least six times a week in
warm weather, in order to have it in
a condition fit to make fine butter.
On the other hand, cream will remain
sweet for a longer time than milk, and
most persons consider that, it does
no harm if the cream sours—in fact,
it pays better to have it sour, because
they receive a higher test for such
cream from those creameries using
the oil test. This is the chief reason
why the oil test should be discarded
in favor of the Babcock, which latter
lest places a premium on sweet cream.
in order to get sweet, cream for
creameries the two main requisites
are to keep everything clean and to
keep the cream as cold as possible un
til it is delivered at the creamery.
The first requisite should be easy, but.
many persons fail here for the same
reason that an old,bachelor failed in
getting good results in his cooking by
folio ing recipes in cookbooks. When
gone one asked him if he had ever
tried any of the recipes for cooking,
he said he had tried a good many of
them, but never had good results.
When asked why, he said they all be
gan in the same way, “take a clean
dish," and he couldn’t do that very
handily. »onsequentlv he gave up re
ferring to cookbooks. The second
requisite is gotten by having on hand
a supply of ice or cold water. Ordin
arily each and every patron ought to
have a supply of ice for cooling
cream. The subject may be summar
ized in the following, as presented by
Prof. Dean in the Canadian Dairy
man:
First—Clean the pails, cans and
separator daily or twice daily.
Second—Cool cream to 50 degrees
by the use of ice or cold wafer.
Third—Have rich cream testing not
less than 25 to 35 per cent. fat.
Fourth—Fresh cream should not
be added to older cream until after it
is cooled to 50 degrees.
Fifth—Deliver daily or at least four
times a week In warm weather. The
cream can or tanks should be protect
ed from sun, rain and dust while on
the wagons.
Sixth—Proper weighing, measuring
and sampling are essential for satis
faction among the patrons.
Seventh—Cream should be pasteur
ized and cooled at the creamery, espe
ciallv in the ran and winter, to re
move objectionable flavors and to
, add keeping quality to the butter.
Eighth—Cooperation on the part of
the drivers, patrons and creamerymen
is necessary in order to improve the
quality of the cream and butter.
Freak Ear of Corn.
A freak ear of corn is reported from
Shelbyville, Ind. It is composed of
I about 200 small ears, each the size of
a lead pencil.
The dairy cow is a great factor in
every civilized country.
ALKALINE OR SALINE SOILS.
Not So by Nature But Lack of Rain
Causes the Condition.
Alkaline and saline soils are not so
by nature, but are so only because
the climates in which they exist are
largely dry and the rain water is not
abundant enough to wash out the
alkali and the salt. In the semi-arid
«est the evaporation is very great
and a large part of the water in the
soil never reaches the rivers, but is
carried off into the air by the process
of evaporation. The salts and alkalies
of the soil have been set loose from
the rocks and ledges in their slow
decomposition. Were the soil water
enough abundant these salts and al
kalies would have been carried down
into the sea. As it was, they were
, carried up by the slow movement up
ward of the soil water.
Even in humid climates there are
found here and there places that are
so alkaline that the otdinary farm
crops cannot be raised, says Farmers’
Review. The reason for this is of the
same nature as in the other case,
though the process of its application
is a little different. The writer saw
a small pond in Lake county, Illinois,
round the rim of which was a strip of
barren soil. This barrenness had
been caused by the evaporation of the
water from that pond. The secret
was that the pond had no outlet deep
enough to draw off its waters. When
the summer days became dry and the
sun hot the outlet was rendered use
less by the waters of the pond having
been evaporated to such an extent
that the surface was lower than the
outlet. The sides of the pond then
acted like a lamp wick, drawing the
water from the pond and evaporating
it into the air. In this process all the
salts in the pond and the little alkali
there was passed through this earthen
lampwick, and in the evaporation of
the water the chemical contents of the
water were left behind. While the
amounts in the water were not great
enough to cause barrenness, when
these chemicals became concentrated
in a little area of soil, they became
predominant and caused the barren
ness complained of. The solution of
the problem was perhaps not reached
by the farmer that owned the pond,
i but it was to lower the outlet till it
would carry off the waters. Or the
pond could have been dammed and
the alkali soaked out and the outlet
then lowered. The latter way would
have removed the alkali in a much
shorter time than would have been
the case of the outlet had simply been
lowered and the rains left to gradu
i ally wash out the alkali. But either
way would have been successful and
the method that took the longest time
to accomplish the end would have
cost the least money.
Water Cows Often.
The best practice is to let cows get
t0 the water as often as they like.
This is not always practicable in win
ter. but they should be watered at
least twice a day. If the water is
warm, that is. heated so that the chill
is taken off, they will be glad to drink
twice daily, even during the coldest
of weather. There is now no ques
tion as to the value of warm water
for dairy cows. The animals drink
more, the production of milk is not
checked by the animal being com
pelled to drink ice water, and the re
turn at the pail is much greater than
when heating of water is neglected.
For Calves.
Oatmeal, boiled and made into a
gruel and added to the sweet skimmed
milk, is one of the best foods for
calves. Add a litttle flaxseed jelly,
and your calves will grow like ^eeds.

Related to Common Quack Grass But
May Have Economic Value.
Tho grass shown in our illustration
is known as Agropyron caninuni (L.

is not known that ary attempts have
been made to cultivate this grass, but
the general characters indicate that
it may possess considerable economic
value as forage grass, says the Coun
try Gentleman. It is said to be easily
propagated by seeds. Its relation to

I caution as to its cultivation.
THE ORCHARD.
If a cover crop was not sown in the
orchard last month, attend to the
matter at once. Don't let the ground
be bare all winter.
Satisfied with the varieties in the
orchard? If not, now is a good time
to decide which trees had better be
grafted next spring.
Watch the peach and other trees
carefully for weak crotches. A few
well-applied bolts, where needed, may
save loss when wind storms come. Do :
it now.
