Ayrshires, and, Dairy Farrain
, England.
A late number of the North
England Farmer has an interes
article under.. the above head
which we present to our readers
a condensed form. Much valu
information may be gleaned f
this source, notwithstanding the
ference in soil, climate and nat
ality, or of the character of the s
used. for dairy purposes.
,Foi 150 years the farmers of A
shire have chiefly made their re
and' living by dairy farming,
mainbranch of. which was militia
kind of full or sweet milk che
called " Dunlop," so termed fro
district in Ayrshire. - .... . ,
The farms bete beiPgmostly !Hu
the soil of a 'poor clay, and tho'
mate wet, there was developed
small, hardy cow,
that was pot p
in her food, and from the long
tention directed to her milkin
qualities, these have long been ce
brated.
The present Ayrshire is a sen
animal, not weighing mord than
1 t
o 40 stones when of full size a
' fat, the chief weight being in t
hind quarters, "ever the mil
The other traits are light neck;a
shoulders, and fine in the taila
bone, the head handsome, with fin
ly turned, rather email horns, and
mild, sweet expression of (*mate
ance. The colors of red and wh
have varied a little, according to t
prevailing fancy, the fashionab
color at present beingblood red wi
few white markings.
At shows the size and shape
the " milk vessel,"., and the positio
of the teats, are the main points.,
Ayrshire farmers began abou
twenty-five years ago to take farm
in the counties of Dumfries, Wigto
and Kircudbri t, at higher ren
than were prev1i usly given for sue
farms. Their success -induced th
native farmers to try the dairy .sy
tem, and in these counties, and i
Lanarkshire and Renfrewshire, it i
now the prevailing system of cattl
farming] _ In Ayrshire the farmer
mostly keep the dairiee, in their
hands, and as the farms are mostly
small, they manage them with the
female members of the family. But
in Galloway and Durnfrieshire,
• where the farms are larger and ,the
tenants not so,thoroughly acquaint-
ed with the aystem, the dairies are
generally let out t men called
,
bowers," from Ayrshlre. _
The system of feeding and man-
agement is, of course, the same
whether the farmer conducts the
manufacture of the cheese himself or
through the medium of the "bower." .
A certain portion of grass land—
. about two acres to each cow on me-
dium land, worth perhaps thirty
shillings per acre—is allotted to the'
dairy, to - eep free in sumer from
all other stogy Some of the finest,
dairies are i":),la the edge of the hills,
where there is a command of arable
' land for the early summer's grass,
and natural. pasture for the remain-
der of the season. `
There are now some very fine
dairies on the lower ranges of "hills,
which were previously almost en-
tirely grazed by sheep. This occurs;
even where the wet " bogs " have
been drained and lime, up to the
elevation of 1,000 feet. On these farrris
the COWS- are a week later in being
turned out in May, a disadvantage
which is more than made up after
Lammas, as the grass continues
green and succulent till the -weather
compels the housing of . the cows.
On these farms these cows -also have
the advantage of a large upply of
meadow hay. i
On many purely arable farms the
COWS are wintered on oat straw and
a limited portion of turnips, but

there should always, if possible, be
hay for them for two months or six
weeks in the spring. ift is one of the
merits of Ayrshire's that.they will
winter fairly on straw and fewer
turnips than any other British breed
of cattle.
The cows generally calve in April,
and the chetse-rnaking begins as soon
fIS they are turned out° to Vass, un-
less the milk is sold.
When a dairy is 1 et to a, bower,"
he generally pays the farmer at
dates agreed on, mostly the larger
port,ion by the middle of Septembee,
and - t he- remainder at MartiinmaS,
whicli is usually the time when dile
agreement terminates: This is the
most satisfactory way of having the I
rent paid, as the farmer has the se- c
entity of the cheese foi the year's
rent, and the employee has no risk 1
of variation of prices. Of course
the farmer' insist rise great caution 0
the selection of an honest and skill- t
fid man, or the cheese may be of an a
inferiOr quality, and consequently., 1
hying an, inferior price.
There are exceptional dairies
which, from the superior ,pasturage t
and selection of cows, -produce as h
high as -I- cwt of cheese , but 'the a
general rate of letting to a "bower" 0e
is front 3 to :3!. cwt., which mostly 4
comprises all the cheese made from S
the time the cows go out to grass a.
till the first of November.
