In choosing the family cow one 1a nob limited now -a -days in the matter of breed. 'Well-bred stock, hots become so general, that ordin- al rdin- alily one can bay at option an in- ditidual, of almost any of ties ra pioved breeds,; not a'pedig animal, perhaps, unless a rether high price is paid,.. but a "high- gradc.," which means that the ani- mal is not•of registered pedigree, bee is nearly enough pure-bred to bo so for all prieetical purposes.' It remains, then, to choose whether one will buy a Holstein, a Jersey. an Ayrshire, or one of any other .of the breeds commonly in use, The choice must be made in ac- cordance with what is most want- eci, whether milk or cream, If cream, the choice,' most emphati- dally, should be a Jersey or a • ;Guernsey. But for feeding infants, jfats]lk .a little less than that given lbyithesein 50 butter' mals is generally better. An ideal 1 cow for this purpose is a cross be - 1 `ween the Jersey and Ayrshire, and this, perhaps, is as good a family cow as can be had for all the uses leerily- ' generally required. . But it y r enc I y g ' occasiontilly that a cow bred in just this way is to be found, and a cross of the Jersey or Guernsey —which are strictly butter breeds -- heel] any of the approved milk breeds makes an animal of very' similar characteristics. The strict- ly milk breeds are not recommend - est for family cows. . The first thing to remember in choosing a cow is that the cow most feminine in appearance is the best"" milker. Roughly ; speaking, she should be shaped something like a wedge—large and well-developed — behind, and small and Sine in front. the should be wide between the • hips and low in the flank, with her hind quarters set a little apart, so ad to give room for her udder. Her belly should . be of good size, but ! should round outward, rather than downward, and her rump should be, straight—that is, the root of her tail should be nearly on a due with liar back -bone, The shoulders should be thin and rather narrow at the top; chest deep rather than bi c ad ; neck thin, head small, but longish—clean-cut and fine in the muzzle. The horns should be small and of fine texture; and the eyes rather large, but mild and gentle, and not showing much of the white. Her skin should be soft and pliable ani the finer and silkier hoe ,eoet the better. The udder should be large and well-developed, but should stay properly in its place and not :sag • down too low. The four teats should stand well apart from each other, forming a ``square" udder; and they should be smooth and soft, free from warts or exeresences- They should also be long enough to be taken hold of by the whole hand in milking, as when they are - so short as to have to be held be- tween the thumb and two fingers, the work of milking is greatly !in- creased.

Fleshiness in the udder cannot be detected when it is full, and the only test is to have the cow minced - This test also shows how much milk a site gives and whether she is gen- tle. If the cow has any habit — such as breaking out of her pasture or, worst of all, self-milking—it can rarely las discovered on such first examination as the purchaser can give, even if he is very careful; but it is sure to show itself later. So in this matter he must trust the eel, ler and take his chance. But. the Lance, after all, is not a very long • enc. for the overwhelming major- ity of cows are free from these ha- bits, and if she is gentle to mills lith handle there is usually little to fear.
