desired •breed type will be a decided
asset to the stock farmer.
'Four major' points should be kept
in miud in judging dairy cattle. 1First,
the mammary' system, which is the
udder, the mills veins andthe mills
wells; these together .nate from 310 to
3I5 points out of a total of 1100. When
in full milk a Pgoad udder will be
large, extending well forward and far
up :behind and ,firmly attached to ,the
body. Its quarters should be •even with
eery little Separation between chem,
and the Pbo'btoni nearly level. When
milked otrt the udder should be ,much
reduced in size, pliable, and the skin
loose and soft. 'Always look out far
defects, such as lumps in the udder,
which are an indication of mastitis.
The size and shape of the teats is very
important from the standpoirut of di-
sease and of convenience in milking.
Mammary veins and milk wells should
be well distributed and ,pronounced in
the mature cow.
The second point is dairy tempera-
ment. This is a quality that indicates
ability to convert food into milk,
Cows of the dairy breeds should lack
a beefy appearance, the 'bones .being
fairly prominent and not heavily 'flesh-
ed Size of udder is also considered.
Extreme thinness !because of lack of
feed, or 'fleshing 'before calving, should
not be confused with dairy. tempera, -
went.
The third point to consider is body
capacity and size. Alt other things be-
ing equal the larger ,caw is preferred,
and all breeds have a standard weight.
As it !takes Feed to .produce milk, the
cow must have capacity for feed, this
will mean a well -sprung rear rib, a
fairly long and deep body, good heart
and lung capacity 'and deep (broad
chest.
The fourth point to consider is
health, vigour, soundness, superior
dairy temperament, 'large capacity for
feed, good heart, lungs and circulatory
system, and a well-developed mam-
mary system.
If purebreds are under 'considera-
tion a knowledge of breed type is
needed. Although the points for a
good cow hold true in all breeds,
breed type must be kept in mind when
judging a purebred or a grade of a
particular breed. Good type and high
blue hat and accessories. On their re -
tarn they will live in 'Dungannon.
Succumbs To Injuries—
John Stewart Mair, Goderich town-
ship farmer, was taken to Clinton
hospital on Monday in a critical con-
dition, having suffered serious in-
juries in an accident that evening. A
team of horses had been 'hitched to a
ltay loader for the purpose of moving
it into the !barn. When the horses !be-
came unmanageable Mr. Mair was
thrown to the ground and one of the
heavy wheels was still resting on him
before he was released. He had only
partially recovered from an accident
in the fall when he stumbled against a
circular saw and was unable to stand
the shock of the latter accident, He
passed away Wednesday. — Clinton

THE FARMER AS A

type. It is often true that a good pro-
ducing cow may not be very pleasing
from a type standpoint, yet it is also
a fact that •production and true dairy
type are a combination that should be
sought after and maintained .in farm
herds. This will not only increase the
owner's interest in the herd, ,but will
be a distinct advantage when indivi-
duals are offered .for sale. Being able
to select •animals that will be economi-
cal producers and also conform to the production ,must be com'bine'd.
