Why are they chosen? Be- cause it is believed that they exercise an influence on milk production in the progeny. This belief is founded upon observa- tion, and, what is better, it le fouuded on fact. The advanced registries among dairy cattle have made it clear that some dairy sires do beget a larger number of high milk producers than other dairy sires. This shows that it is possible to af- fect milk production through the sire. The fact will not• be disputed that milk production influences breeding, Abundant milk production favors free and abundant breeding. If therefore the sire thus influences abundant milk production be influences free breeding. But yet again it may be claimed and with reason that a sire, Iike a dam, in- fluences the whole organization of the progeny. We have no faith in the somewhat popular heresy that the sire is chiefly concerned in the transmis- sion of certain organs and properties and that the darn is chiefly concerned in the transmission of certain other or- gans and properties. We firmly believe in the truth that both sire and dam influence every fea- ture of the organization and that the degree of influence exercised will be proportionate to the degree of the pre- potency possessed by both. If this view is correct, and we think it is more easily defended than any other view bearing upon this aspect of transmission, then it follows that transmission through the sire does af- fect the physical organization of the kemale, 'including those organs imme- diately concerned in abundant produc- tion. A Great Guernsey. This grand cow, Sultana of Paxtano, is one of great capacity. It is no won- der that her owner, Mr. S. M. Shoe- maker of Stevenson, Md., takes great pride in her, says American Culti- vator. She was first admitted to the advanced register as No. 2S, with a year's record of 8863.52 pounds of milk and 365.04 pounds of butter fat. In justice to this record it should be said that she was dry one month during this year's time. Mr. Shoemaker be- lieved she was capable of doing bet- ter work, and accordingly site was im- mediately started on another year, with the following result: Pounds of milk from Dec. 17, 1902, to Dec. 10, 1903, 14,138.29, or about 7,000 quarts; See fur Stock Before buying Elsewhere Our Christmas Stock is Big- ger,.

SULTANA OF PAICTANO. average per cent of butter fat, 4.25; pounds of butter fat, 590.34, equal to almost 700 pounds of butter. This is the best yearly milk record of any Guernsey cow to date and is the fourth best butter fat record among advanced register cows. It sbould be mentioned that this record was com- menced when Sultana was eleven years and two months old. During these two years her mills has been test- ed by the Maryland agricultural ex- periment station and supervised by that station in accord with the require- ments of the register. It is interesting to note that the average per cent of butter fat for the two years comes the same, 4.25. Sultana's feed and care were similar to those given the rest of Mr. Shoemak- er's herd. The grain in use was a mixture of twelve parts bran, eight parts gluten feed, two parts flaxseed meal and two parts cottonseed. Sul- tana was fed six, eight, ten, twelve or fourteen pounds daily of this mixture. according to the amount of mill: she was giving. The greater part of the time site received twelve or fourteen pounds daily. In summer the rough feed was five to seven pounds clover hay, ten to fifteen pounds silage and about twenty-five pounds green feed (soiling crops). In winter seven pounds hay, thirty to thirty-five pounds silage and fiVe pounds beets were given. Outbids the State. The state of Iowa was outbid by a dairyman at a recent referee's sale in Scott County, and John Cownle of the State board of control was cleverly outwitted by a plain farmer who was not backed tip by the wealth of the state. The Iegislature made an appropria- tion for the purchase of the Howell farm, in Scott county, as the farm lies between two tracts of land owned and farmed by the state in connection with the Soldiers' Orphans' home. Mr. Cownle was present at the sale and bid as high as $127 for the land, but stopped at that figure, and the land was finally knocked down to Thomas Coglan, a Scott County dairy- man, at $131 per acre, Considering Moisture, tr.

PRICE tact AT ALt, GROCERS FEED AND Mft.K, new the C4tttrscter .nz4 quantity of On flatlets Attack tee View. The dairy industry has perhaps reached a higher stage of scientific de- velopment than any other branch of agriculture. Either purposely or un- knowingly most dairymen with whom this branelt of agriculture is a busi- ness proposition closely follow the practices Jaid down as a result of the great amount of scientific 1nvestiga. Mu which has been devoted to the many phases of • milk production, writes the agricultural editor of the Chicago Tribune. In spite of this there are elementary principles which, many good and successful dairymen 40 not understand or upon which there are radical differences of opinion, based upon practical experience,. All dairymen know that the dairy cow must be liberally fed in order that she be stimulated to her best produc- tion of milk and recognize that she is rarely given more of palatable and nu- tritious feed than she will pay for at the milk pail. The effect of quantity of feed in increasing or decreasing thq volume of milk flow is understood, but the effects of variation of feed upon the constituent elements of the milk flow are less understood. Many dairy- men firmly believe that butter fat or the solids in milk can be changed by changes in character of feed and in the nutritive elements which it con- tains, frequently claiming personal ex- perience as a foundation for the belief. Possibly the most common belief is that succulent feed causes a thinner- that hinnerthat is, more watery --milk, the volume being increased, but the richness, per- centage of butter fat or of solid ele- ments being correspondingly mailer. Many and careful experiments, both in this country and abroad, demonstrate beyond a doubt that the butter fat content is not decreased by succulent feed. Taking grass as an example, it is clearly established that the percent- age of butter fat is equally Iarge in milk from a cow fed on the most suc- culent of June grass as in milk from the same cow fed on hay. In fact, va- rious experiments seem to indicate a small fraction more butter fat from the grass feed, but the difference Is more properly chargeable to the favorable effect upon the nervous system of sun- light, pleasant weather and outdoor life enjoyed by the cow on pasture. The point is that succulent food does not form watery milk. Experitnents in feeding distillery slops, a most watery feed, further con- firm the conclusion that butter content is not affected. The conclusion is in- evitable that succulent feeds have no unfavorable effect upon milk composi- tion, though it is possible that much diluted food, like distillery slops, brew- ers' grains or pomace fed in large quan- tities for long periods, might prove in- jurious through physical derangements. It is probable that so many dairymen who hold erroneous opinions as to the possibility of affecting the quality of their milk by the character of their feed are led into the error because a marked improvement of the ration leads to a greatly increased flow and consequent larger total fat content. The correctness of the data established by careful records is supported by nat- ural laws. In nature the function of milk is the nurture of the young. If it were subject to constant variation in constituent elements, with changes in food quality, the existence of the young would be constantly threatened. To improve the quality of the milk, the constant aim of the successful dal ryman, he must look to breed and not to feed. Constant selection of strains of blood, made with a view to butter fat records, is the only way to improve - went. The question of feed relates solely to the volume of milk flow. Cows Must Be Sheltered. The delicate system of a highly bred dairy cow and the heavy drain caused by the Iarge flow of milk make it im- perative that she be sheltered from storms in tho cold weather. The sta- ble must be comfortably warm, with an abundance of sunlight. THE CHEESEMAKER Theoretically a eheesemaker is sup- posed to be sufficiently busy with work inside the factory to leave but little time to interest himself with outside affairs, but practically his interests outside are as great as if not greater than that branch of his work relating directly to the making up of milk, said P. G. Short in an address before the Wisconsin cheesemakers' convention. In actual work we have a condition where the patron is at one end of a seesaw, the customer at the other and the eheesemaker in the middle, trying to keep both enols even. An average eheesemaker can take good milk and make a good cheese, but it needs no prophet nor the son of a prophet to foresee that dirty, tainted Milk will make a poor cheese in spite of the cafforts of the most successful among you. The cheesemnker's ability to change the quality of his milk is limited. He can neither pasteurize nor sterilize. The little lie can do with a stetter to- ward improving conditions does not have a marked influence oh the quality of milk if it is poor in the beginning. So his skill is largely dependent on the personal habits of from twenty to six- ty men Who supply him with his raw fnater]al, and it naturally folioWs that he must take tin interest in things out- side ttte factory whether he desires it er not. Baiting Cheese. Good dairy salt, not too gee, should be added at the tate of two to three pounds of salt to the curd' obtained from 1,000 pounds of milk. Great care should be exercised in securing the very best salt; otlherWise the highest grade of cheese cannot be secured. The Malt Wito Works Bard.

R. to Goderich, the Goderich Star says -The foundations for the bridge over Dunlop's Hill are now complete, and the foundations for the north end bridges that will span the north branch of the Maitland are being put in. The two big steam shovels are doing great work, and when the track is placed so that cars can he used both ways for blasting, there will be lively tinges from Goderich to Auburn. East of this town, work is in progress through Colborne, Hullett and other municipalities, and the open weather the past few weeks, will help to put things in form for carrying the work on during winter. The small motor engines are now on the track east of Dunlop's, and as there are plenty of dumping cars un hand, ballasting can now be pus' e.1 at this encs of the line. Work on the town side of the Mait- land may not be tt•irted just yet, but when it is everything will be ready for a quick finish. •4 Racking Pain In The Joints. Also every form of rheumatism, neuralgia and sciatica are best cured by Nerviline, the quickest relief for muscular pain yet discovered. It's because Ner',iline strikes in and pene- trates right to the core of the pain that it gives such unbounded satisfac- tion. "I caught cold in niy shoulders while driving and suffered great pain, writes G. E. Dempsey of Berlin. I used Nerviline freely and was soon quite well. I have found Nerviline an excellent remedy for rheumatism and neuralgia as well as for cold on the chest. I recommend Nerviline highly and wouldn't be without it." Price 25 cents.
