INVENTOR'S TROUBLES.
Thirty-six years ago last Wed-
nesday—on February 14th, 1876—
Dr, Alexander Grisham Bell, for-
merly of Brantford, Ont,, invented
the telephone.
Like other scientific discoverers,
he had a hard time at first to get
people to understand and believe
in his invention. Dr. Bell says
that it was his work among the deaf
and dumb which led to the tele-
phone idea, and he tells a deaf
man's story to illustrate public 'is -
trust of anything new.

I let these calves become mothers
rather young, It is surprising how
very early a vigorous young heifer
will breed if the opportunity is giv-
en her. I had once a Jersey -Hol-
stein cross -bred heifer that gave
birth to her full -terra calf, when
only 14rf., months old.
It is the business of a dairy cow
to give milk and to learn to turn
all her products and energies along
this channel, and so the earlier she
can get started in the right way
the better.
It is sometimes said that early
breeding sttints or dwarfs a hei-
fer, but I havo 1rad many heifers
to drop their first calves at from
eighteen to twenty months of age,
and afterward they developed into•
cows which were large and vigor-
ous for their breed.
I like best to start with a Sep-
tember or October calf, and then,
if they spend their first winter flu-
ster favorable conditions, with
plenty of skim milk and early cut
hay, bran and ground oats in ad-
dition, they will bo sleek and
plump when they go to pasture in
the spring.
About midsummer or early fall,
when they are ten months or a year
old, add a yearling bull to the
bunch and, the matter of breeding
will be tended to without care or
attention.
I never expect to raise the little
calves of these calf mothers, so I
care little about the breeding of
the bull or the dates of service.
There will be a good deal of varia-
tion in the age of dropping the first
calf. Permanent barrenness has
with me been very uncommon,
The young mother sees very little
of the calf after it is born. The
quicker it is taken from her the
better, because if she has time to
become strongly attached to it she
will worry snore when it is finally
removed. I want her to under-
stand that it is her mission to yield
her milk readily to the man who
milks her.
By thus removing the first two
or three calves, the material in-
stinct becomes largely dormant and
she comes to consider a pail rather
than a calf as the natural channel
Iforher milk.
In most cases the breaking of a
heifer to milk is n0 great task. I
usually milk the young heifer my-
self for the first few times. It is
hardly necessary to say that the
application of the milking stool in
the vicinity of the short ribs is
worse than useless.
A soft voice and gentle phrase
and self-restraint will not do ev-
erything either, and if she will not
be reasonable, there can be no
harm in putting a rope or strap
around her legs just above the
hocks in the form of a figure eight.
It causes her no discomfort until
she begins to kick and then it can-
not cause her the slightest injury:
The heifer will, of course, not eat
as much as the mature cow, be-
cause the capacity of animals to
consume feed is largely in propor-
tion to their size. A heifer may
give as much milk in proportion
to the food eaten as a mature cow
and make some growth in ackli-
tion,

The cows should be kept clean

They should be milked rapidly
and the milkers should keep their

the most filthy habits connected
with dairying is wetting the hands
