Production and Life.
How Milk Is Secreted --Thunder Does
Not Sour Milk, But Bacteria Does
the Business--_ pa, or Ab.
sence of Milk, Occurs More Fre-
quently With Cows Than In the
Females of Other Live Stock.
(Contributed by Ontario Department ot
Agriculture, Toronto.)
CONDITION known as "asa-
lactia," or absence of milk
in the mammae at the time
of parturition, probably oc-
curs more frequently in cows than
in females of other classes of stock.
It may occur in a female In ang con-
dition as regards general health, nen•
eral care and surroundings. The
causes, or conditions to which it is
due, are not well understood. It
occurs even though pregnancy has
been apparently normal and has
reached full term. It is probably
more frequently been In females
which have not bred for a long time,
or In those which have produced
their first young, though themselves
aged. While it may occur in an ant.
mal under any conditions, there are
conditions that appear to predispose
an animal to the trouble. In uueh
cases there appears to be a went of
development in the lacteal apserstne.
which may have been eauaed by pre-
vious or present chronic disease of
the udder, a chronic leebeaiag in
bulk, called "atrophy" of the udder,
exhaustion following disease, severe
labor, insufficient food, either during
or immediately after pregnancy, nat-
ural debility, emaciation, etc..
The mammae is usually small and
soft, and attempts to milk produce
only a few drops of a yellowish fluid,
in some Gases followed by a few drops
of a whitish, watery Auld. Treatment
is frequently unsuccessful. It con-,
gists in feeding liberally on easily
digested milk-predueing food, mas-
saging the udder frequently and
stripping the teats three or four
times daily, Great attention should
be paid to the digestive organs in
order to keep them as normal as pos- ,
slble, and the patient should be kept
so that she will take considerable ,
exercise. The writer's experience has
been that the administration of drugs
is non-effecti•Te.
In many cases the gland becomes
perfectly inactive, and remains so
until after the next parturition,
when, in most cases, it becomes nor-
raal,--J. H. R., O. A. College, Guelph.
How Milk is Secreted.
No ono knows exactly how the
cow secretes milk. Various theories
have been put forth explaining the
process, but none of these are en-
tirely satisfaetery. About all we
know is that milk is a true see;etton
of the mammary glands located is
what is known as the udder, more
commonly called the "bag" ot the
tow. It is made from blood.
In order that the eow may haw
plenty of blood, out of which she may
manufacture milk. She must be in a
healthy condition, be supplied with.
Plenty of pure air, and water, and
have an abundance of the right kind
of feed.
Sone cows are unable to make
milk abundantly even though the
owner does all he can be expected
to do for his cows. In these cases,
it is the fault of the cows -they
have not the power within themselves
of making milk from their feed. They
seem to change their feed into blood
which is used as a basis for manu-
facturing beef, instead of milk. In
addition, there are cows which ap-
parently do little or nothing with
their feed -they neither give milk in
paying quantity, nor do they become.
fat. These are classed as "boarder"
cows, and are very unprofitable for
a farmer to keep.
The only way'to know for certain
whether or not a cow is able to se-
crete milk in paying quantity, is to
weigh the milk from each cow for
at least three days in each month.
Also test the milk for fat at least
twice during each lactation period.
In this way, the owner may select the
good from the poor cows, and thus
build up a profitable herd for dairy
purposes. --Prof. H. H, Dean, Ontario
Agricultural College, Guelph.
Why Milk Sours.
It is a common impression that
thunder sours milk, but this is not so.
The reason that milk sours is that
minute plants, known as bacteria,
act on the sugar inmilk, changing
it into lactic or milk acid. One scien-
tist, however, says this explanation
is not satisfactory. He regards the
souring of milk as a result of feed-
ing on milk sugar by the lactio acid
germs, leaving behind them what is
known as sour milk.
No matter what the true explana-
tion may be in detail, we believe that
souring of milk is caused in some
way by "germs" or bacteria whieh
are microscopic plants that fall into
milk from the air, and get in from
many other places.
Like all plants, they must have air,
suitable temperature, and moisture,
in order to grow, The common plan
of preventing the milk going sour is
to cool it to 50 deg. F. as coon as
' possible after milking and keep it
cold until it is used. The reason for
this is, the cold makes an unfavor-.
I able condition for these plants to
grow, hence the milk remainssweet,
though sometimes it takes , on bad
flavors, or develops disease producing
germs. In order to prevent this, we
"pasteurize" milk in order to kill: the
. germs present, by, means of heat. If
ittis cooled and kept cold after heat-
ing,; the milk 'Will keep sweet for
some time and is free from disease
germs. This is known as the cafes
kind of milk to. use. "Safety First"
is a good rule when buying milk.

Still a Place for the Good Horse.
Horses have not been meeting a
keen demand in Canada since the
war broke out and hare increased
about 650,000 since 1914. However,
a real good heavy draft horse is hard
to find, and if Old Country markets
are any criterion of the trend of af-
fairs an awakening in the Canadian
Draft Horse market should soon fol-
low, Draft geldings are selling in
England for from $300 to $580 and
even up to $1,000 each. A returned
oficer told me recently of seeing a
number .of Canadian geldings (artil-
lery and transport horses) sold in
Old London for £100. ($500) each.
About one-fifth of Great Britain's or-
dinary supply of work horses went to
the war and a number of useful brood
mares were also taken. France, Bel-
i u ni, Russia and Germany, four of,
t he great horse -producing countries,
,nave lost a heavy percentage of their
=acrse stock during the war. Already
