THE WING:El-AU ADVANCE, THURSDAY, RINE 25, T908,
DAIRY HEIFERS,
'they Should He Carefully Prod to
ceeo ronee milkbeirl arty,
A correspondent writes asi'Ing when,
In our ju(lgineut, heifers intended for
the dairy should be first brad. The
general opinion on the subject, and we
believe it Is Correct, says Wisconsin
Farmer, is that helpers intended for
the dairy should be bred so as to
came in with their first Calves at about
two years old, The rniiking function,
carried to the extent which good dairy
practice requires, is a highly artificial
one, and early breeding Is one of the
steps necessary to the intensification
op the milking habit. If the heifer be
not bred early, she is likely to acquire
the habit of using the liberal though
not fattening food she aheuhl llawo for
the purpose of making flesh. This, if a
habit, 1s quite fatal to the usefulness
of the heifer Intended for dairying.
Feeding, management, breeding, etc.,
should be directed to its prevention
without, however, starving or stunting
the animal. It Is alleged., with some
show of truth, that early breeding de-
tracts frorit the size of the cow when
matured and also that it is likely to
have an adverse influence upon consti•
tution. As has been. intimated, there is
probably some truth in both of these
objections to early breeding, but the
world we live in is one to which we
must pay the price for anything we get
that is worth having.
Early Breeding.
It Is probable that the intensifica-
tion of any quality in the breeding of
domestic animals Is not attained with-
out a sacrifice of something else.
Sometimes the sadfilice is one that can
well be made, and sometimes it is one
that we would prefer not to make, but
fit any event we must pay the cost of
the quality we desire, to exalt, Thai
early breeding does reduce size and
settle is altogether probable, but these
are qualities that are not particularly
essential In the dairy cow, and the
early breeding is attended, with conse-
quences much more important to the
dairyman than any consideration of
mere size. It is possible, too, that con-
stitution may suffer to some extent
from early breeding, but this, too, is
one of the things that must be iu part
endured and in part compensated by
the better care and greater attention
to the protection of the cow from con-
sequences of some little weakness in
this respect.
It will not do to encourage the milk-
ing faculty by every possible means,
early breeding included, and then al-
low the cow to find her only shelter
against the winter blasts on the south
side of a wire fence or in the vicinity
of a straw stack, but if care, shelter
and attention to the comfort of the
cow aro given, that should be given,
the fact that she is not quite so hardy
as a scrub rustler would be can well be
endured and indeed roust be endured
if a profitable dairy cow Is sought for.
Heifers should therefore be bred, we
think, so as to come in fresh at about
two years old. The maternal function,
of w3Jch milking Is but a branch, is
thus encouraged early and made a
characteristic of the animal throughout
her life.
Dairy .Talk of Today
If dairymen would expose all milk
utensils to the sun and air there would
be less trouble from 'poor milk, Strong
sunlight kills bacteria rapidly, and
when a can has not been thoroughly
cleaned or a crack Is left with a little
casein that will quickly spoil exposure
to the sunlight will to a great extent
remedy the .carelessness of the dairy-
man.
Milking For Pastime.
Every cow in the herd should return
a profit to her owner, but do they? If
they do not$hey should be discarded
and better ones substituted. Milking
isn't so much pleasure to many farm-
ers. that they would milk for pastime,
yet many are really doing so. Weed
out the unprbfitable cows if it takes
the whole herd.
Breeding Jersey Heifers.
Cecil A. Todd of Toledo, 0., writes
the Practical Partner on this subject
as follows: One mistake a good many
fanners make is in breeding Jersey
heifers too young. A. much better way
is to let them get their growth, at least
•three years. Keep them in a separate
lot if necessary after they are eighteen
nlerttlis old. If permitted to bring
calves. -„before they have their growth
they make shall eows and yield less
milk. The calves also are smaller, as a
rule. It is not always best to be in too
great a hurry to get ahead in the
world. A space of six or nine months
is not so fond to wait, and it is infinite-
ly better for the cow. Other things be-
ing equal, a cow will sell for more at
any kind of sale, public, or private, if
she Is of good average size.
A Convincing Argument.
Lots of dairy farmers are halting by
the wayside, wondering If they had
better build a silo, says Hoard's Dairy-
man. One thing Is certain—they will
never know any more about it where
they ore. The Ohio experiment station
put the question to'the following test:
They fed .ono kit Of cows a heavy el -
Inge ration and another lot a heavy
grain ration. The result was in favor
of the ensilage fol Cow. As L. W.
Lighty says in the National Stocktnan,
"Can we make more dollars handling
the corn grain by way of the crib or
the silo, stalks to be ensiloed at the
earliest stage we usually cut it tip in
the shock?” Ile the eites the results
of the Ohio espertment, which Was
that the ensilage fed cows made theft
butter for 13 cents apound, while tire
cowti fed dry fodder ]ray and. a Beeby
grain ration chargees 22 cents n pound.

Clinton.
About Clinton, in the last couple of
years, a number of the citizens have
gone to the trouble and expense• of
making beautiful boulevards in front
of their residence.
After a lingering illness of creeping
paralysis there passed away on Wed-
nesday, June 17, one of Clinton's old
and respected citizens in the person of
Mrs. William Murphy, Princess st.
No tenders were received for the
plant of the Clinton Thresher Co.,
and an order was issued on Monday
for a piece meal sale of the effect'.

affair is still uncertain.
Robt. Waz•rener, who has been con-
ducting a -livery here for several
years, has decided to open out at Hen -
sail, and will move his effects there:
Mr. Thos. Cook has bought the build-
ing lately occupied by Mr. Warrener,
paying $050 therefor and will put in a
new and up-to-date livery outfit.
No statute labor has yet been put
on the roads in this vicinity. The
reason. given is that the late spring
kept the farmers, back with their farm
work, and they want to catchup be-
fore they begin ear the road work. It
would be a blessing to the travelling
public if the roads were left as they
are all summer.
Hotelkeepers must recognize that
when Local Option comes into effect
the law will be enforced, as public
sentiment is -against the laty-breaker.
For the second time H. Shaver, hotel -
keeper, , of Kippen, in the Loea1 Op-
tion township of Stanley, appeared
before Police Magistrate Andrews of
Clinton on Monday last, and acknow-
ledged having kept liquor for sale, on

Shaver was warned that he ,would be
dealt with according to the limit of

IMPORTANT CHANGE IN RATES AND
SERVICE TO THE CANADIAN
NORTHWEST.
The Passenger Department of the
Grand Trunk Railway System have
just made an important announce-
ment L11at will be of great interest in
connection with the movement of pas-
sengers from eastern to western Cana-
da. While first class fares are the
same' at the present time via the
Grand Trunk Railway's Line to Chi-
cago, and its connections beyond to
points in the Canadian Northwest,
the second class fares for many years
via Chicago have been higher than by
the route north of Lake Superior.
Commencing June 14th, the agents of
the Grand Trunk in Ontario and Quo-
bec and connecting lines will be able
to issue second class tickets from
Eastern to Western Canada at the
lowest current fares by any route.
Naturally a large proportion of the
passenger traffic referred•to is made
up of settlers and others who prefer to
use second class tickets, the saving
between the price of the first and
second class tickets being considerable
and the accommodation for passen-
gers with second class tickets having
steadily improved.
As the Grand Trunk Railway have
a double track to Chicago from Mont-
real, Toronto, Hamilton, Brantford,
Woodstock, Ingersoll, London .and
other principal stations in Quebec. and
Ontario, it is expected that many pas-
sengers will prefer to travel by, way
of Chicago. In addition to this
advantage, the Grand Trunk will con-
nect at Chicago and offer the choice
of seven lines between Chicago, St.
Paul and Minneapolis; north of St.
Paul and Minneapolis, a choice of
three lines wilt be available. Many
Canadians have friends and relatives
residing at Chicago, St. Paui, Min-
neapolis and other large American
cities pissed through by the new
routes and doubtless the opportunity
of a brief visit at the stations in such
cities will be much appreciated by the
patrons of the new route, and by their
Canadian friends and relatives resid-
ingaiross the border.
ll arrangements have been com-
pleted so that the baggage of passen-
gers will be carried through the 'Unit-
ed States in bond without requiring
any special attention on the part of
passengers at any point in the United
Sates who hold throegli tickets to
points in the Canadian•Noi•thwest.
While through cors will nit at pre-
sent be operated, it is believed that
many passengers making so great a
journey will mach prefer the conifort-
able transfer at points like Chicago
and St. Paul into freshly ventilated
clean ears.
, While through tickets will continue
to be aced when requested via North.
Bay, the Grand Trunk people believe
that the new route With the advant-
ages outlined above will beeoine so
popular that it will eorninand a vert+
Marge share of the growing traffic
from Eastern, to 'Western Canada,
Already the Grand Trunk and its
connection enjoy a liberal share of the
business from the Canadian Northwest
to Eastern Canada by way of St. I'aul
and Chicago and now that, the tar -
riffs have been adjusted to permit of
passengers travelling in both direc-
tions at the lowest fares a large de-
velopment of the traffic via Chicago is
certain to follow.

ty that must be sola at a reduced price,.
The herculean task before us in con-
nection with our cream gathering
creameries is the education of the pa-
trons to properly care for their cream,
When the cream leaves the farm, it
should be both clears In flavor and
sweet. Vila means care and cleanit-
nese throughout and the providing of
facilities for cooling the cream. The
• utensils used should be of the best
quality and properly cleaned, so that
there will be no danger of contamina-
tion from this source.
Milk In n Clean Anne.
Special care sbonld be taken to milk
In n clean place and in as cleanly a
manner as possible, for particles of
dirt whi61t fall Into the milk at milk-
ing time are laden with organisms
which produce the worst Savors with
which we have to contend and, while
ilarinfui at any time, are doubly so
under the cream gathering creamery
system, whew/ the cream is held for
some time before it Is sent to the fac-
tory.
The milk. should be creamed as soon
as possible after milking, and for this
purpose we strongly favor the use of a
(land separator over any method of
setting the milk, as it provides the
most efficient and thorough method of
creaming the milk and enables us to
make a cream of any desired richness.
We recommend making a cream test-'
Ing about 30 per cent. The quantity
, to be cooled Is greatly reduced, and the
cream, if' properly cooled, will be one
of superior quality. Care should be
taken to set the separator In a clean
place and to stand it on a floor that
can be kept clean, and not on an earth
or ground floor, which is sure to get
into bad condition sooner or later
through milk being spilled upon and,
soaking Into It and thus causing bad
odors. We would again admonish
those who have hand separators to
keep them thoroughly clean. We have
stet more separators than one in such
a condition that they themselves would
contaminate milk put through them.
The separator bowl and Its parts,
should not only look clean, but should
have a Clean smell as well. If giving
off any bad odors, examine all tubes
and crevices about the bowl, for this
is evidence in itself that there Is dirt
being harbored somewhere,
Delivery of Cream.
Frequently cream 1s seriously injured
In delivering it to the creamery. We
have even seen collectors using ordi-
nary milk cans in summer for this
purpose. Creast received from the
patron in the best condition would
not under such circumstances 'reach
the creatitery in a condition fit for
.making good butter. The tit�]cs or
cans should be well insulat(Td; and
where the latter in particular are used
they should be protected from the sun
by means of a good canvas cover on
the wagon.
Cue of the most disagreeable flavors
imparted to cream is that due to the
sun's rays striking directly upon and
heating the walls of a can, and this
flavor is invariably passed on to the
butter. Where the cream is delivered
by individual patrons the can should
be covered with a blanket.—Superin-
tendent Mitchell at Meeting of East-
ern Dairymen's Association.

Dairy Wisdom In Brief . 1
,♦ In Kansas a progressive dairyman
tested his herd of sixteen cons. Ile
found eight were making good profits
and the other, eight were eating them
up.
The best Way to improve the test Is
to better the cow.
Every heifer raised from an unproflt-
abie cow will make one more unprofit-
able cow.
The dual purpose cow may do for the
average farmer, but the dairy farmer
wants a profitable cow.
Shivering on the warm side of a
straw pile and suffocating In a dark,
poorly ventilated stable are two ex-
tremes. Avoid 'both this winter.—Klin-
bell's Dalry Farmer.
Teach the children to be careful to
rioso the doors and gates, says the
Farre Journal. A. prize heifer calf was
lost by the barn door being left open
end the calf gaining aceess to the chop-
ped grain, The fact not being known
until too late to attempt saving it.
Calves grow into money about as
fast as any kind of stock. You have
got to keep them moving, though.
When a calf stops growing, it is pretty
apf to go back first thing you know.
liackwttrd things are what swamp .the
best of tis.
The quarters for the cows should bo
put In order, so that When the frosty
nights and cold rains conre the herd
may have proper shelter. Cows Are
more sensitive and susceptible to cold
than Most other animals On account
of the (feeble drain upon them. Be
