THE WAY TO KEEP ROTS CiN THE.

(By j. A, W. Raglan.)
I have been on the farm all my life.
Sinoe I was fifteen I have done fer

A bey; coming into manhood, ;should

say a eolt or a teem that he Le al-
lowed to call his. own. Help him to
'take an interest in in them; wet him
to It them up. Let him go to the
lair if he wiehes, but be sure he haa
got something that will win a prize.
Thia will give hint an incentive to
go ahead and try again.

A RECORD COW.
Accovdin.g •to the "Chicago Dairy

grell'e and butter fat production for
gone veer has again been broken. R.
la Rosales), of 'Waukesha, the ovens
set' a/ the record -breaker, which is a
(guernsey geade, and the test wen
=lade by the College of Agrieulture
Wisconsin. Her production for the
year past was 12,395 pounds of milk,
contaming 1,755 pounds.of solkla and
695.8 pounds of butter fet. The handl-
.cap allowed because shes-wae only 3
years of age makes the actual fat pro -
Auction , equal to 777.9 for the year,
Another e.year-old Guernsey of the
ee,me herd made the best -recoid in
the univer,sity for Mo,rth, with 1.,558..4
pounds of milk, containing 75.05
pounds of butter fat. Allowbg for the
liandleap on aceount of age, this- re-
tSult was equal to 89.739 pounds of
tauter fat for one month.
CAUSE OF BritilER MILK.
Bitter • milk la invariably due to
geeminwhieli develop when the milk bas
been kept at a very low temperature.
Very seldom, if ever, any bitter milk is
developed in the summer time unless iet
le held in exceptionally cold. water for
several days. The way to get rid of the
bitter taste in milk is to thoroughly
scald all the milkieg utensils, pails, cols,
etc., and 'thee keep the milk. az a tem-
yerature -of not less than 55 degreee
r, ALFALFA AS A SUPPLEMENTAL
CROP,
Whilst the general pasture lands are
in tfairiy good shape this summer, there
is a possibility of much hot, dry, wee-
ther, which will mean short and dry

manner of feeding this legume is to cut

mangers end allow the ankh cows to
eat whilst being milked. A stimulation
Will be given. to the milk flow, ana the
appetite of the animal will be inereased
and:serve to make -the pasture more ac-
Ceptable, ensuring' greater digesbibility.
.As alfalfa .often produces two good
crops and a third growth worth pastur-
eng, it will pay the dairyman to inclade
in his crop rogation. There is no
;waste whatever, the cows eating -every
lleaf and stem with relish end profit.

Spring Vet* while valueble in some
plaees as a coner crop, did not prove so
in our experiments. It. requires More
moisture than hairy vetch. to produce
tlie same growth. It is uot hardy
euough to etend our average winter, nor
does it start- into growth as early in
spring, so, cousidering all features, it
is not a profitable plaut for our pur;
pose.
Canada Field Pens were grown for
three years.ln the orelitrd. Ile a cover

e crop that woeld germinate quickly,
produce a large amount of green ma-
terial before fall and then of eaurse kill
out before spring. The peas seemed, to
leave the. sebsoil in much better condi-
tion than any other crop that we have
tested, and while the tops winter killed,
yet then servea a valnable ptirpoSe as
a. nitrogen gathering and humus adding
eroti, The tops of the peas were so
well deeayed eprieg thet it was 'not
necessary to plow them under, but only
to work them in with a disc.
Fall Rye is probably the beat plant.to
