Such a cow is a _s-oi|rce_,o_f. perennial Pri-de io her owner.; he weighs the milk from each. cow he has, because be finds it pays. But is it not curious that many dairy- men never bother to weigh, and so re- ruaiu quite hazy as _to each individ- ual’a performance? it is curious, too, when you come to think of it, that so many are content to bother with a herd not one of which has any remote chance whatever ofgiving in a year even one-half of what-_this fine cow gave in eight months. _

The immense possibilities for an in-

Wai- conditions make it imperative

as _ possible, stop this enormous leak and .in or- der to assist in this connection Dr. Wickware suggests that every breeder- pay strict attention to the general conditions of his flock in or- 4 der that any ailing birds may be ini- inediateiy isolated. When anything

visable to place the affected individu- al in separate quarters. lf within. a short time recovery does not take place, il in unwise to destroy the fowl without first ascertaining the cause oi' the disorder. The prevgb ence of diseases is more often the cause of the potiltrykeeper's failure than is ilie lack of practical know- ledge. The extreme importance 01 keeping the quarters clean; isolation of all ailing fowls and immediate tc- iion in regard to finding out ‘did cause cannot be too strongly impreal~

ed upon the poultry1tiian._ _

When trouble occurs, forward to

the Biological Laboratory, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, Ont.,_.l. live but sick fowl or in the absence of such, n dead bird. in the interval, dis- infect the quarters, runs drinking _ fountains and feed dishes to check the spread of any infectious disease.
