A SUMMER MILKHOUSE,

Convenient In Localities Where a Natural

Spring 1s Wanting.

For any of our northern states in the summer time @ milkhbouse built like the one in the illustration would be very sonvenient. It is adapted to situations where there is no natural spring, but where the water must be pumped around the milk.

A man who has tried a small house of this kind says of the one he built: It is 6 feet square and 6 feet high at the eaves, Which is large enough for the Milk of two or three cows. The house is built under a large grape arbor, about 20 feet from my kitchen pump. The milk tank, which is 12 inehes deep aud 14 inches wide at the top, ex- tends along the north side. It bas a screen cover, which may be covered with cloth in very hot or dusty weather. A table with a shelf underneath occupies the southeast corner, A space just above the level of the tank, 2 feet wide and

extending ou all sides of the house, is covered with wire screen. Shelves alove the screen and below the tank give sufficient room for milk and butter dishes. The milk is set in pails. A gal- vanized iron pipe leads from a small tank at the side of the pump down 18 inches below the surface of the ground, across the 20 foot space and up again to the Jevel of tbe milk tank. An overflow pipe at the other end of the tank car- ries off the water after it has reached the proper height in the tank. Another pipe, at the bottom of the tank, is used for emptying it when desired. The door in the southwest corner is of wood, but conld be of screen if preferred. Board shutters cover the screens in rainy weather. The water in the tank may be changed at any time by pumping water into the small tank at the well.

Pasture Not Enough.

Fresh and succulent grass stimulates the prodaction of milk beyond what the patriment it contains will warrant. It is juicy and watery and lacks substance to such a degree that this large produc- tion of milk will rapidly reduce the strength, vitality and carcass of the cow, 80 that she cannot long continue this extra flow of milk unless she has some more substantial food to go with this fresh grass to keep her up in condi- tion.

The farmer makes a great mistake when he abruptly drops off bis hay and grain feed as soon as the cows go out to grass in thespring. He would probably see very little difference in the amount of milk given for awhile, whether he fed grain and hay with the grass or not, and for that reason many have come to the conclasion that when they did feed grain on early pasture it Was

throws away, ava mey receivea no orn- efit from it. But the one who does so feed will find that his cows will keep up their strength and condition much better tham those not fed, and later im the summer and fall and even the next winter will be giving a much better flow of milk, so that when he comes to foot up his accotnt at the endof the year he will find that for every dollar’s. worth of extra feed his cows had while on fresh grass he has received back at least $2.

It hus been our practice for years: to:

feed to all cows giving milk a small grain ration alls#immer. The advisa-

bility of fecding grain ou pasture after the. grass has come to have plenty of

wubstance in if may, with some show ef reaseu, be questioned, but not so in the spring. At that time it is folly not to feed.

We have experimentad. tosome extent to try te determine what grain food was best to feed on pasture. We have: tried wheat brap, but wany cows do not seem to eare for i¢ much when the grass is plenty, and some will refuse to eat it. They seem to crave something more concentrated. Corn and oats they lived much better than bran, and clear cornmeal better yet, but best of all gluten feed.

Now, what we think is the very best feed for eows on pasture is about five pounds of cornmeal and gluten feed— naif and half—daily to each cow giv- ing a fair flow of milk. Besides this they should have before them every time they are put in the stable to milk some good early cut clover hay. They will eat some every time, no matter how good the pasture is.—Exchange.

Tub Silo For Twelve Cows.

In answer toa question, The Rural New Yorker says:

Tokeep 12 cows on ensilage from Nov. 1 to April I and feed them 40 iy each per day would require about

2,000 pounds. Atubsilo 12 feet in Giameter to contain this amount would ueed to be 16 feet high. The inch boards would not be practicable to use in the construction. They would be so elastic that the weight of the ensilage would be likely to cause springing between the hoops, and this would allew the air to enter, and tne ensilage would be spoiled. If the hoops were put close eneugh to prevent the spripging of the inch bourds, the oest would be greater than the additional expemse necessary to se- cure the 2 by 6 plank. Purchase 2 by 6 plank 16 fect long, and bave the edges beveled for a silo 12 feet in diameter.

Over twenty-five years I have been in the Spectacle bud moss and during that time have fitted hundreds and hundres of persons. Sowe had put off getting glasses so long that the could not see a large 4 ineh letter A without going within 2 » 3 feet of it, and might have gone blind if they had put off getting glasses much longer. Others have been fitted or tather wisfitted, with wrong glasses by travellers, and charg- 2d a great deal more tha» they ought to have been. This y~ar our traveller, Mr. C. H. White, intends calling on par- ties at their homes inthe country, to test eyes and show sam ples of our goods.
