JERSEY ‘WORTH: PAVING.

Yield. of Six Pee Cont Dutter Fat and a

Big Calf. Here is a famous old Jersey-cow, im- ported originally froin the island which is the native home of Jerseys. She hae hever been forced for a recorti, but has been one of

the best cows «straighs through her career ever owned in pri- yate life. When she was 18 years old,

her milk yielde d 6 per cent butter fat to the test.

A writer in The Rural New Yorker, from which paper the illustration is re- produced, says of the old herd mother:

This photograph was taken when her enf was about 8 weeks old, and the cow was m king as well as usual, haying fallen away.somewhat in fle sh after @iv-

OLD.

large, vigorous young fellow. At this time the mother was giving on an aver- age about 25 pounds of milk daily, test- ing 6 percent butter fat. Although very nearly 18 years old at that time, she is a valuable dairy cow even yet. The next time a man tells you that he is afraid to feed his cows heavily because he thinks that they will last only a short time under this treatment just call his atten- tion to old Cypres, who has stood heavy feeding for nearly 19 years, and today her udder and teats are in as perfect condition as when she was a heifer. As Jong as you are able to milk it out don’t be afraid to put the feed into a dairy ®0w.

Whey Calves and Other Calves.

For a number of years we raised 10 to 25 calves every year. We sold our milk to the cheese factory and had our whey back. This problem of ruising good calves on whey was a serious one. We always started our calves on new milk till they were 8 or 4 weeks old, then gradually diminished the mi!k and added a little whey, and at the end of a week the whey would be substituted for the milk and no bad results from the change, as is often the case when the change is made abruptly. But to make up for the loss of the milk we boiled a kettleful of old process oilmeal, adding a little of this to each feed.

They would thrive nicely on this till hot weather came on, when the whey would get too sour for calves.

This dilemma confronted us several times. At last we decided the whey must go, and we adopted anew system, which proved a success. We made hay tea by taking au old washboiler and crowding it full of sweet clover hay, then pouring boiling water over it and covering up to steep. When the new milk was taken away from thera, at the age of 8 or 4 weeks, a little of this tea aud also a little of the cooked oilmeal was given each calf. By thinning with water the desired amount of drink was obtained. This was increased as they got older, and also a little bran added.

At the start the quantity of oilmeal t« be used is at the rate of two table- spoonfuls to each calf. At the age of 3 months the hay tea may be Ginitted, us the calves will then be old enough to eat plenty of grass, but they shouid be on good pasture.

The cooked oilme be given them all suin it as a drink with water. It should ne measured, not guessed at, anc each one fed in a pail sepsrately. We wish t' emphasize the word ‘‘cocked, ’’ for if fe«d in its raw state it is liable to scour the calves, while if cooked it will not, hence very important. ‘his hay afte? being steeped is not altogether wasted, for burses and cattle will eat it more greedily than in its ary state, though it is true much of its strength is exbaust- ed. —Exchange.

Question and Answer,

If I skim with separator a pound of cream from each 6 pounds of milk that tested 4 per cent butter fat, what per cent of fat should the cream show in Babcock test? Why should it not show six tismes 4 per cent, or 24 per cent?

Answer.—It shouid, barring the inev- itable loss, and this is frequently larger than issupposed. A separator needs con- stant watching, just like any other high speeded machine. The loss in the skim- milk ought not to exceed one-tenth of 1 per cent, but is quite frequently more than twice that. In the case cited, if the

s‘ixmmilk contained two-tenths of 1 per cent fat, the cream would not test quite 28 per cent. —Hoard’s Dairyman.

able of the memory tablets of the wor a. Of the other vertebrate fossils that have been found in the eastern portions of Aierica, among the most abwedeant and interesting are the skeletons of mastodons,

Of these one of the largest and most com- plete is that which was unearthed in the bed of a drained lake near Newburg, N. Y., im 1845. This spectmen was larger than the existing elephants, and had caaie

11 feet in length. Itwas mounted and da- ecribed by Dr. John C. Warren of Loston, and has been famous for half a century As the ‘Warren suastodon,”’

But to the student of racis! davelanment ws reeotded by the fossils all these spora ic finds have but incidental interest ag eompared with the rich western fossil beds to which we have already referred. From records here unearthed the racial evolutiog of many mammals has in the past few years been made out in greater or less de- tail. Professor Cope has traced the an- cestry of the camels { Yike the rhi- noceroses, hippopotemuses and sundry other forms now spoken of as ‘‘old world,”’ seem to have had their origin here) with snuch completeness,

A Jemuroid form of mammal, belleved to be of the type from which man has de- ascended, has also been found in these beds. It is thought that the descendants of this creature and of the other ‘‘old world’’ forms above referred to found their way to Asia probably, as suggested by Profess- or Marsh, across a bridge at Bering strait, te continue their evolution on the other hemisphere, becoming extinct in the land of their nativity. The ape man found fossil in the tertiary strata of the island of Java two years ago by the Dutch surgeon, Dr. Eugene Dubois, and named Pithecanthro- pus erectus, may have been a direct de- secendant of the American tribe of primi- tive lemurs, though this is only a conjec- ture.—Henry Smith Williams, M. D., in Harper's hiaguzise.

WHAT WOMEN WEAR.

Amoug the popnler belt buckles are those of oxidized silver with jewels.

Veils to be fashionable must be plain, the simple length of soft Brussels net being oue of the most approved.

A corn colored hat with black lace trimming is pretty, also the same color- ed hat with a very full wreath of blue corn flowers.

Skirts are very full at the back and are gathered over cords and drawn close- iv, so that the back shows a pointed de- sign of one cord above another.

Artificial flowers are extravagantly bexutiful. They are exceedingly natural and very rich locking, and if one buys good ones they last a long time.

Novelty bats are shown in braids of every bnaginable color. Red is exceed- ingly popular and when trimmed with # profusion of soft black lace or chiffon

one of the most stylish of the mil- liner’s creations.

The surplice front is gaining in favor, and when carefully adjusted is becom- ing to almost all figures. For stout ladies it seems to reduce the bulk, while for slender ones it can be left slightly loose and is very pretty and graceful.

The decline of the shoulder cape is said to be assured. How true this may be one can scarcely state authoritatively, but from all appearances this form of garment is too useful and has made too many friends to be given up very soon.

Soft belts of silk or velvet are used, and to these some of the rich buckles are fastened. One of the novelties is a belt of yellow velvet with three very elegant cut jet buckles, oue in front and one on either side. At the back there isa large rosette bow of leather.
