The Cow, Her Care and Manage. ment, and her Products.
REY. MR. PAPER.
Take this tine County of Queen's, and estimate the number of cows at 5,000 (these figures may not be entirely accurate as it is with the greatest difficulty we obtain reliable figures in connection with this in- dustry.) We will suppose that the 5,000 cows are worth $30 each, giving us a total lvalue of $150,000. Let each cow yield | 1500 quarts during the milking season, the average yield of which should not be less ‘than 2000 quarts (some eminent authorities ‘contend that a cow does not pay unless she |yields 2,500). The Grst figures aggregate | 7,500,000 quarts, the second 2,500,000 ad- ditional. The latter product should re- ‘present, in cheese at 10 cents per pound, ithe sum of $65,000. If ayain the like y eld ‘is obtained from the herds of the Province. | ‘Lhe aggregate is simply astonishing. Many of you will remember the celebrated Jersoy |cow ‘‘Eurotas,” whose one milk record is 'given at 7526 pounds of milk in 341 days, producing 778 pounds of granulated and golden colored butter. Dairymen must icarefully examine all matters that are hkely toe cause any loss in his operations, and stop leaks at once. How often, instead of ascertaining, as wise men do, how the bal- ance stands on the ledger, are young men, and men of maturer years, too, found abandoning the business of farming because something has gone wrong, and the climate or what not, gets the blame, while the real secret of failure is to be found in their negligence or stupidity, and they go west to become hewers of word and drawers of water in a new, if not a foreign country. I am aware that it is not fair to place the entire fault at the door of the young man. Perhaps the home is not what it should be. t would be sarcasm to say of it :
CONTINUATION OF MACDONALD'S
‘*A thing of beauty is a joy forever, its loveliness increases ; it will never Pass into nothingness.”
You may find about it the antiquated sey-
the and the flail of a by-gone generation.
The Dasher Churn or the old fashioned
grindstone may have helped to banish the
young man from the farm, Let the guard-
lan of that psuedo home (after replacing
the old implements by the modern unes)
make it what it should be, a place where! character is formed, and where education | goes on. and where its inmates are impress-
ed for time and eternity. Before leaving the subject, let me quote from the facetious yet truthful words of Robert J. Burdette, in his address to young men. ‘Be some- body on your own account, young man, and don’t try to get along on the reputation of your ancestors. No body knows, and no body cares, and there is not a man liy-
Ing who can tell the name of Brigham
Young’s mother-in-law. Hard work was never known to kill men, it was the fun
men had in the intervals that killed them.
The theory that the world owed every man
a living was false. The world owes a man
nothing. There isa living for every man
in the world, however, providing the man
is willing to work for it. If he did not
work some body else would earn it and

THE LAZY MAN “‘GETS LEFT.”’
Men who went out West to grow up with the country must do their own growing. There was no browsing allowed in the vigorous West. An energetic man might go to the far West, and in two or three years possess himself of a bigger house, a bigger yard, a bigger barn and a bigger mortgage than he could obtain by ten years’ work in the East. * * The world wants good shovelers, teamsters and labor- ers; but it does not want poor lawyers,poor preachers or poor editors! To resume: I am not going to trouble you in describing the ‘‘general purpose cow’ for I do not think she has been discovered. I wish to repeat, let the beast be selected, their prog cept to the front, and we shall find that aBove all the other branches of hus- bandry. Dairying pays the handsomest profits. The main thing is to secure a cow possessing goud digestive organs. The pro- fits of dairying being so dependent on the supply of the miik it is of the utmost im- portance to study these points of a good milker, that they may become so familiar to us 28 to be able to tell one almost at first sight.
This leads us by a natural sequence to speak of the management and care of the cow. Let it be distinctly remembered that no matter how deep the milking strain of the cow is, if she is not properly kept and fed she will not return any profit. The character of our stables is at the root of most of our losses. The cow must be quartered in a warm stable, with a tem- perature not lower than that of her own body, provided with sufficient ventilatign, and kept scrupulousiy clean. How can we expect our herd of milkers to do well, when they stand for some six or seven months in cold, open stables, with the temperature at times down to 50 or 60 degrees below that of their bodies. Such treatment of them, is not only positively cruel, but entails upon the keepers loss of feed an¢ many other evil effects. Indeed, it naturally leads to chilling the whole surface of the body, closing the millions of pores in the same, preventing the escape of the insensi- ble perspiration, leading to the retention of the wastes of the system, producing in- digestion, and ending in weakness, decay, and death. Hence we find farmers going about the neighborhood, after the winter months are past, seeking remedies for the ‘thorn ail,” the ‘‘tail ail’ and other ‘‘ails” when the whole ail can be traced to their own blifndness in not providing good and sufficient food and warm and comfortable housing for their stock. Not only in the winter months, but during fall and spring, in fact at all seasons in which cattle stand in

God's blessing ever seems present in the trees. For their shade and shelter to man and beast; for the music the wind makes among their leaves and the birds among their branches; for their fruit and flowers, which delight the palate and the eye, and the fragrance that goes up and outward from them forever we should be always grateful for the trees, Well may the Arab worship in the date palma God given source of sustenance; dear to the Spaniard is the olive; and to the Hindoo his banyan. Above allother things in the landscape we should deal gently with the trees, and encourage the brotherhood whose aim is to increase their number, and protect their growth. If heis a benefactor who causes two blades of grass to grow where one grew before, how much greater his beneficence who places a tree in some waste place for shadow and shade.
Our next consideration must be the food of one cow, Now, we cannot improve on the June pasture (it is the standard of food) but we can lengthen its season, and we are able, througb recent experiments and dis- covéles, to provide a good substitute for it the yearround. Our permanent pastures should be carefully improved, although in this country that necessity is not so great asin the West. The plan of sowing, in liberal quantities, different grasses finds much favor. Professor Brown gives the following as a recipe for an acre, including grasses and clover :
Timothy 6 lbs Lucern 5 lbs Orchard grass 3 ** White Clover 3 ‘* Red Top cy? Jae fa Meadow Fescue 1 * Red Bags Kentuky Blue 1 “ Trefoil .
Yellow Oate a
Bent Grass ,.o
A smaller proportion than this would have a most beneficial effect, but these pro- portions and their iberal supply is found better. As to partial soiling, which is all we need strive for, as long as our land re- mains 8o cheap, the following plan, having been tried by myself, will be found to work well anywhere. An early sowing, say in May, of oats and peas, 24 and 14 bushels to the acre, respectively, will provide a rich and succulent feed for milch cows, as early as July, when the heat is oppressive and the flies are a plague, Hungarian grass, which is said to be fit for foed in six or seven weeks after growing, is also recommended. Later in the season we can fall back on the successive crops of sweet corn, which with leaves of roots and cabbage, will bring us along to winter. The real difficulty now arises. How shall we supply aration for the herd, as near as possible, in nourishing properties, to the June grass} Weil the first thing we must do is to utterly undo our present system of drying hay. If you leave your grass until it ripens (which Providence employs as a means for perpetuating the pliant) it is of course no longer graas, and cut it im either case, to be burnt by sunbeams, your loss in weight is nearly eighty-five per cent., while the most nourishing properties are dissipated in thin air. The aroma will fll the atmosphere, but it will be at the expense of the convents of your milk pails. The grass should: be cured and that without sunshine. ‘Make hay while the sun is obscured,” mubkt be ene motto, This cured grass with rations from the root cellar, and concentrated food, xiven in sufficient quantities and at regular intervals, will return good profits directly, and wili place one on the direct road to high cultivation. I have some hesitation, gentle- men, in the present state of experimenting to place a decided opinion upon record with regard to the food value, for milch cows, of ensilaye. 1 must say, however, that as far as preserving al/ the elements of a pert full of juices is concerned, the soil has made this disposition of it without mistake.
