" What's do matter. podt'cr ?" sympa- thetically inquired Seldom Fedd. who had been working a residence some dis- tance away. “ Look at dis bump of benevolence l jist got," growled the injured knight of the high road. indicating the belhrt mentioned knoll, which presented a strik ing likeness to a goon: egg with auburn hair on it. "I Went up to «lat llOuSl' no hit de back door, same as common. In a skimpy lonLin little woman opened it. I asked if do gent of do house wa> it), an she said he wasn't, on She didn't expect ltim back very snon. Den, t'ink in dat I'd struck a reg'htr pad. I stuck out my chin an told her to set out do pic. on cake on b’iled ham an a copper lofi't-c, an be mighty swift about it, too. or I'd tear dc wltolc side of do house out.” “ What did she do denâ€"holler ?" “' Do I look like she holleer ?

In was the woman who spoke first. “ It is as Well." she said, “that we understand each other.” The man shrugged his shoulders with an awkward attempt at indifference. It WIS plain that a crisis was at hand. " Go on," he said. The woman at his side remained thmghtful for some time, ltcr mind at work collecting all the evidence in the past that was against him.

The latter, tuxp'u'mlly. is Ilzlnmgin: to the milk yitld. for it may ho- nutieml that consulw'ays shrink in milk alter a storm. Wiw tenuomy calls lnr measures that Will obviate this, namely, a dry. warm shelter. ' Be saving also of your food. For instance. in giving milch stock corn fod- der, \vlen they trample it under their feet and waste as much as they eat, it is the daityman who is wasteful, not the animals. The most" economical way of feeding corn fodder is to spread it be- fore the cattle when in stanchions, and only give them what they will eat up clean. _ To be saving of the feed in the pastures, don't put more stock into the field than it will support. On a farm not long ago they were talking about the cow pasture. horse pasture, sheep pasture and ca‘f lot. The owner was on the right track,tts it implied that he kept his stock separated. Milch cows never do so well when compelled to pas- ture in common with other cattle. Then, again, do not waste the milk. Even a drop of milk. which may repre. sent the growth of one grass root, can- not afford to be wasted. In the first place secure all the milk from the cow’s udder by patient stripping. The richest comes last, and you cannot afford to lose even a drop. It is not a stingy course to see that the milk pails, pans, cans, etc., are well cleaned; and that your hired hands are so kind to the cows that the animals do not frequently kick over the milk pails and spill the fluid. Perhaps the mOst efficient way to save milk is to preserve its quality so well that; none is wasted by scouring or tainting. Be saving of the butter you make. In figuring on a good yield of butter from the cream, do not make the mistake of mixing some of the casein of milk in with the hotter fat. This is done by skimming ltppered milk, under the supposition that it is economy, when it really is the grosscst extravagance, for you can never make first-class butter that way. 0* What Makes the Profitable Cow? We are often asked, how much milk must; a cow give, or, how much should a ,cow test, in order to be profitable? says she broke the silence, now becoming, painful. “ Not long after we were married,” she said, “ it became apparent to me that you, in common with the majority rl' men, assumed that you had united y~-urm it to an inferior being. You lov- ui me. but it was the love of the strong !' r the weak. 1 was the creature whose 3.4: harbiucss rested upon your favor, wh was dependent alike upon your patrin‘ny and the whims and fancies that might sway you.

The man visibly shuddcred. “ Yes," she. continued.

The recent tests of cows at the New England Fair, Portland, Me, affords a conspicuous illustration of this fact, as also of the other that, that one- day tests may be greatly misleading. At that fair one cow, Addie Ackley, an A. J. C. C. Jersey, gave 40.3 pounds of milk; another cow, Eunice, a “ Maine State " Jersey. gave 28.7 pounds of'milk. Which is the better cow ? The probabil- ities are that the former made much the best show in the ring, and would “score” several points tnore titan her competitor, because of her carrying a much larger udder. This would be especially the case with the average observer, or any but a. truly experienced expert, and more especially with anyone who should at- tempt to form a judgment by the “scale of points ” recommended by the Jersey Cattle Club, forjudging Jerseys, where 13 points are given to a “ fore udder, full in form, but not fleshy; ll points to a “ hind udder, full in form, and well up behind ;" 10 points to “ teats rather large, wide apart and squarely placed ;”and 5 points to “milk veins prominent." Here are 39 points, out of' a possible 100, given to the milk vessel and its appur- tenances, and it is not unreasonable to suppose that the cow giving 40 lbs. of milk in 24 hours would score much high- er titan the cow giving 30 lbs. or less, and hence be pronounced the better cow. \‘i'ltcn. however, the milk of those cows was tested. it appeared that the greater quantity had only 4 per cent. fat in it, while the lesser quantity carried 6.1 per cent. Too many men would hastily con~ clude that the higher testing cow was decidedly the better of the two, and in l fact she did yield a trifle more fat, but i scarcely more than enough to compen- sate for what she lost in the value of her skim milk. In truth. so far as the one-day experiment could show, these two cows were so nearly equal in the money value of their product, that there was no room left for choice. A decision baced upon either quality or quantity of the milk would have been decidedly misleading. Only when both are con- sidcrcd can a reliable conclusion be reached. The first import of cattle to America was made in 1403 by Columbus, who l brought over a bull and several cows. PHOTOGRAPHS. “ Ol wad some power the giflie gic us To see ontsels as ithers see us."
