DAIRY IIINTS. it takes more care this time of year to have things come out right. Condi- tions are not quite so favorable as ear- lier it the season. For instance, there aro muddy places through which Ilse cow must go. As far as possible those should bo filled up and got rid of. But it is not always possible to do that just when lite to. So we must Iat•o a good supply nice, clean cloths at hand to clean the ccws' bugs at milking time. Thenton, we should not be satisfied with straining the milk through the wire sieve of the milk pail. That is not line enough to catch the flne particles of matter that wilt in one way and an- other find their way into the pntl. Use a clean cloth, with a fine mesh, and keep that cloth just as clean as you CLIPPING TO KEEP COW'S CLEAN. 1 wish to consider that one trial t f all dairymen, the clinging of the ma- nure to the thighs and hocks of the cows, writes Mr. W. J. Elliott. I i►ave heard it said that this is easily over- come, if the dairyman makes it his ('hero to brush down the thighs of the cows every day. It is a fact, that it is not a big chore, it we look to the bed- ding and the brushing each day. At present, I ant practicing in my dairy a system of keeping clean the cow's thighs. It consists of the clipping very short of the hair on the thighs, stocks and tail of the cows. With an ordinary pair of horse clip- pers, cut, very short, the hair from below the hock to a line drawn from the stifle lo the tail head. 'fl►e horse clip- pers may also be used for clipping the udder, but the clipping of the tail !s difficult unless we have someone to hold it. Now when the cow gets up, any lit- ter that may cling to her thighs, will dry very quickly, because it is so close le the (tide. \\'hen dry it is very easily a least thigh is sc c off,and tho h brushed d as ever. If the thighs are not clipped, and the long winter cont of hair becomes wet with the manure, wo all know what a long lime it lakes it to dry', even. if brushed off ns clean as possible. This system has worked so success- fully, and it takes such a short time to clip the animals, that 1 clip not only my cows, but 111y steers. It is really wonderful how rl.•:u1 they keep with very 1i1110 care, tt Inn they are clipped in this manner. Bcsitles this, with my steers, we clip n ridge hvo widths rf the horse clipper right along the back- bone, from the tail head to the back of the head. This is just the place, especially on the steers, where tete hair, in a measure, is standing on end and furnish('., a splendid position for dust and dirt to drop directly into the hide. When the heir is cut short, the slightest brushing will preCent the collection of dust and dirt in this manner. and thus the steers have not that restless, itchy feeling along lite shoulders and back. This system Of clipping the cows and •Sn'er; is practiced regularly, twice each winter. Ttvn of my men clip 10 cows 10 at atiernnon before milking lime, and i certainly figure that these few Inure were saved 10 limes over during the wilder, -by the ease with which lite cows were kept clean.
