Protection from Inclement Weather.
At this season .of the ,year, when.
farmers are extremely busy prepar-
ing for winter, the dairy: : cows are
apt to be neglected, Frequently they

The highly organized dairy. clew, i;;
very seesiitive to sudden and extreme
changes in the weather,'. and nothing
could be more detrimental to ecott-'
omical milk •production. - The :fl'ow
of milk is oftenso materially'• lessen-
ed that it cannot be brought :back,
to the standard during the winter.
Exposure to storms and 'lyingon the.
cold, damp ground at night not ,only
lead to a decreased flow of milk
1ril,t they are veryapt to cause udder
troubles, , rheumatism and ,other dis-
eases,and

It is, therefore, advise)* th, see that
the cows: get a sufficient supply o ,
suitablle food during this critical pe-
riod, and. that. they ;are protected
from .storms during ithe day and coni
. fortably stabbed at night. That . enn

of the Minnesota'.. Experiment Stat-

the fail care of cows•!he says
One night or even a few herers of,,
cold rain .causes an;.rnormous
age of milk. Food, ,comfort and eon•.
tenttrient are the. primc factors in 5u
ccessful dairying and It is
not . to ' much to • say •
that comfort is the primest factor:
To feed well but disregard • the ,bod-
ily comfort of the cow, is.: to court
and unsure disappointment. A„•, cow
will fail to elaborate a full meds 4t:
milk if She is . wet or shtverIng.'froni
cold, no matter how • gencrpusly she
is fed,
Autumn is a more critical period
for a cow fresh in milk than winter,'
Cold rains and raw winds • are fruit-
ful causes of - decreasing, milk. The
first makes inactive the muscular sy-
stem, while the later so disterbs the
•nervous, system that it fails to pea -
form • its work. Cows should there-
fore not be exposed to fall rains, left”
out during cold nights; or 'confined
in muddy 'or wet yards at any time..
The proof of this theory was clear-
ly 'lernonstratcd by the Minnesota
Station herd -two years . ago. Some
changes were being made in the cow
barn which 'made it inconvenient to
stable the cows for a few days, and
just then a cold, rainy spell set in,
to which the cows were exposed.
There wasnot only 'a very marked'
shrinkage in milk and butter fat at
once, but they failed to recover dur-
ing the winter, though the feed was
liberal and the care the best that
could be given, '1'he.cows gave 10.11
lbs. of milk and .8 lb butter tat a
day during the winter. It was know.n
when the shrinkage took place , and
why, but the attempt to, ,recover it
failed, Tire next year such an exper-
ience was guarded against; and the
same herd gave a daily averalge', of
28.4 lis. milk and 1.2 lbs.: fat. .
It may be asked What the cows •dirt
With their food, since they fed liber-
ally during the winter. They made
baeeit or fat with it, for each gained
an average o€ -nearly half apound a
day, a gain that .dtd neither thce cows
nor the owner any good. During the
two winters' the herd Was composed
of the same cows, fed the same tate
ions and ,received in every way the
same careful attention, and yet be-
cause of the�rishap the, herd failed
by Just, fifty per cent. of doing its
normal or possible work. Please
think of this, and do not lose money

by needlessly exposing cows in the
' autumn. .
Cows That :Do Not Pay.
Mi J, C. Qhapais Assistant Dairy
Y
Commissioner, who is partipui'arly
well ; 'acq'uainted • with agricultural
condition's ,in Quebec, . said in .an ad-
dress': "I+'rpm my experience, I, am
led tobelieve that the reason 'why
the Babcock test is not more gener-
ally;•adopted.as'•a basis for :.payment
tor milk is lack of knowledge 'on the.
Part ; of the farmers, • They do not
know anything about the true value
of cows. When they aretold that a
cow yielding thirty lbs. of milk' is
.snore valuable than one yrel'diag. forty
pounds they do' not understand'it. .'I
came across• an instance: of this kind
when I was working with the insp-
ectors in: the Lake c31, John -district.
One man said,: "I have the best cow..
in the; parish, she` gives sixty pounds
of milk" I went out to his place,
having with me the figures as. to the
butter : fat • in his milk. 1 got from.
him -the facts' as to cost of feeding
his .,cow, and figured. .cut •.the cost of
the intik.. I found that. •it cost, all-
owing . the ordinary price for the feed
used, about 06 cents per hundred lbs,
At. the priest's house Igot the figu-
res 'about a coW'.owned :by him whose
milk cost- 44 cents ;per hundred' lbs.
I showed the man that -the
percent-
age of butter fat in the milk of hig
co* was 2.85, while in 'that, of the.
priest's cow it was 5.50. I was , alio
to .show him that; instead' of having
the best: cow> inins the parish, he had
the ' worse. The ` rest,lt . was that;
whereas this man 'generally sold a
calf at $15 atbirth,the nextyear,
though the calf was a heifer, `nobody
would: 'my it. This shows that the
farmers will i.nderstand .this matter
if we 'go to them and explain it. .
