BREEDING AND FEEDING DAIRY CATTLE,
Sir,—This is a matter of great import- ance to the milk producer, and should receive his most careful attention. You all understand the importance of breeding for a purpose in a horse. If you want a trotter vou will be very particular to «get the service of a horse with a pedigree and arecord. When you get the foal you give it the feed, attention and training neces- sary for its development as a trotter. There is just as sash room for develop- ment in the cow. I have nothing to say against the horse: J love a good one. Most men do. For this reason the horse has been receiving the attention of the shrewd- est, keenest and most intelligent men for nearly 1900 years, Educated and wealthy men have became interested in this noble animal, and have given their talents in developing him till he is able to perform the wondrous feats we read of daily. Trot- ting a mile in 2.10 and less is becoming quite common. Men who have lots of money get a great deal of pleasure in training and raising horses and it has been carried to such a degree of per- fection that the average farmer has no possible chance of making a financial suc- cess in raising this class of horses. Steam, electricity and bicycles are taking ihe place of work and driving horses to such an extent that there is no profit in rais)ng them at present prices. The cow is kind and gentle and has done more, perhaps, for the great human family than any other animal, yet few men take up dairy- ing on account of the regard they have for the cow.
Any of the following milking or dairy breeds are good: Holsteins, Ayrshire, Alderney, Guernsey, and Jersey. , The Durhams, a beef breed, possessing many excellent qualities, have been so persis- tently milked by their owners that many of them have developed into real good milkers, The following points by which to judge a dairy animal are reliable :
Broad high forehead; large prominent eyes; long clear cut face; small lively ears — yellow inside; Jong fine tapering neck; straight back with joints open; broad loin; wide pelvis; slightly arched tail; shanks and horns all of fine struction; ndder large, long, broad and deep; elastic in quality and not fleshy; teats wide apart; hip- thin; milk veins prominent, winding and tortuous; body thin, spare, muscular, disposition gentle.
The following is a summary of the main indications of a large milker:
1, Large udder, iong, broad, deep, not fleshy, but elastic, fine, symmetrical.
2. Fine mellow movable skin with soft silky hair.
3. Long, deep, round barrel, with broad ribs wide apart.
4. Broad loin with rump long and broad and wide bebind.
5. Long clear cut face with large, prominent eyes and fine, tapering neck.
After having bred for capacity in the preduction of milk, feed is the next con- sideration in the development of cows,
products, get plenty—-not too much—and of the right kind. Cheap, succulent fooi is what is needed. You can get this best by raising corn, beans, sunflowers, peas, outs, buckwheat, rye and roots. All these and many more useful plants can be grown in tha eastern and middle provinces of this Dominion with a great deal of satisfaction, if not to perfection. This is an advantage which, I fear, too many of us Canadians do not fully appreciate. Many farmers throughout the country still seem to con- sider the advisability of building a silo a debatable quest on, while others look upon a silo as a sort of luxury. If these same men would provide asilo, grow the right kind of plants and save them properly, the silo, like a great many other things which appear a luxury in prospect, will become &@ necessity In possession.
Mr. E. D. Tilson, of Tilsonburg, Ont., who contributed a valuable paper on corn ensilage and the silo, at the Dairymen’s Convention, held in London, Ont,, last winter, was one of the first in that part of the country, if not the Domion, to build a silo; and after twelve or thirteen years’ ex- perience showed his faith in the silo by putting four in the new barn which he built last, year each having a capacity of 250 tons or ],000 tons in all. I know a good many other practical farmers who, after having fed ensilage, would not think of going back to the old way of feeding.
Mr. R. R. Elliott, the herdsman at the Experimental Farm, Ottawa, who is con- tinually carrying on experiments in feed- ing, under the directions of Prof. James W. Robertson, recommends the following rations for mileh cows, and young cattle, with an estimate of the cost :
RATIONS FOR COWS IN FULL MILK. at $2.50 per ton, 5c.
5 ibs. of hay at 8.00 per ton, 2
5 lbs. of straw at 4.00 per ton, le. 10 lbs. of roots at 4.00 per ton, 2c. 2 Ibs. mixed meal at 20.00 per ton, 2e. 3 Ibs. of bran at 17.00 per ton, 230. 75 l4}e. RATIONS FOR DRY COWS, 59 lbs. of ensilage at $2.00 per ton, 5c.
5 lbs, of hay at 8.00 per ton, 2c.
~ 5 lbs.ofetraw at 8.00 per ton, le.
50 Ibs. of ensilage
RATIONS FOR YOUNG CATTLE, 40 ibs. of ensilage at $2.00 per ton, 4c. 24 lbs. of hay at 8.00 per ton, Ic. 24 lbs. of straw at 4.00 per ton; 1 3c. 5 lbs. of roots at 4.00 per ton, le. 50 The. It will be noticed that full prices have been allowed for everything in the above rations, yet the cost is a greai deal less than the ration givea by the average farmer. All catt’e should be fed and watered regularly, or at the same hour each day, Quite a number of advanced dairymen advocate feeding but twice per day, while the majority feed three times and give very good reasons for doing so.

GUS’ SATISFACTION,
We'll skip it, reader; for it would look neseemly to begin a story with an oath like that Gus Gurley swore. standing over his wife's dressing table that morn- ing. And Gus wasn't a swearing man either.
How came he, then, to commit such a breach of etiquette and ethics? Well, may be you wouldn't have done it; but don’t be too sure till yon’ve heard enough to be able to ‘put yourself in his place.”
Imagine a young husband of six months’ standing,ardent, fond and trust- ing, casually entering his wife's dress- ing-room in her absence, and stumbling on @ mischievious-looking, rose-colored note, freshly opened, a cupid in every vrease, and 2 lurking lock of ancther's hair--red—peeping stealthily from its folds!
The very paper blushed guiltily as Gus caught it up. Eagerly and wildly his eyes ran over the contents. For a moment he stood amazed and metion- less, and then broke out—. But we've promised to skip that. Perhaps any other man word have given utterance to as much. reading such a missive as this, addressed =o his wife:
* Arr xrry, Aug. —th, 18—.,
“Dearest Kite:—How could you go and marry that great huiky feliow behind my back, and w**hout a word of notice 7
“Though |’ ve returned too late to ferbid the bans, I’m stillin time to give that lord and master of yours a hint—which I mexn to do— that an older iove than his won't quietly suffer another to monopo its rights.
“Expect me by Monday, and keep a kiss for
“Your ever affectionate San Smrra.”
Smith! Smith! Sam Smith! Fangh! Whata name! Had it been Brown, Jones or Robinson, there might have been some bearing it. But Smith! And red-headed, too! ‘‘Frailty, thy name is woman!” Yetit might be that Smith Was some presuming puppy, whes? vile epistle was the sheer result of his own impudence. But no; tne wile that could receive such a communication and conceal it from her husband could not be else than false.
Smith’s heart's blood was the very least atonement the case admitted of. Had Gus been more collected, he might probably have bided his time and taken
his peace-destroyer unawares and then »
“tripped him,” trusting to an intelli- gent jury and proof of a mental alibi to bring him out all right. But he was not sufficiently rational for that, and so adopted the foolish plan of summoning Smith to mortal combat.
Gus had a friend, Captaia Borax, a retired quartermaster, thoroughly versed in points of hcnor. The captain was jast the man for the emergency; but, as i!l Inck would have ‘t, he was out of town for the day.
That no time might be lost, Gus de manded satisfaction by mail, directing
his challenge to the address indicated in | the caption of Smith’s note, and fixing |
atime and place at which his friend, Captain Borax, wouid be prepared to confer with any friend of Smith’s. At the same time a brief message to Mrs. Gurley explained that important busi- ness necessitated her husband's absence for the next few cays. Meanwnile, Gus took up quarters at an obscure country inn, leaving everything to the management of the captain, whom he had succeeded in finding at last. and who, proud to be sought for such a ser- vice, promptly repaired to the appointed rendezvous, where he was punctually met by a friend of Smith’s. The pre- liminaries were speedily settled, and a meeting was arranged for the following morning.
As the time drew near, Gus grew ner- vous. The fact is, Smith’s alacrity had taken him alittle aback. He had felt quite confident that that miscreant would shrink from encountering the man whose honor he had outraged. But instead, without turning the word, Smith's second had chosen pistols, and named ten paces as the distance! It was plain the wretch was as bloodthirsty as unscrupulcns. Besides, Gus was no shot, which Smith, judging from his choice of weapons, no doubt was. How much better, Gus began to think, to have fled forever from the ecene of his unhappiness, vr to have invoked the be- aign aid of the laws of South Dakota. But it was too late now to retract,
From a troubied slumber, such as con- demned criminals are apt to fall into in the last hours of their Jast night, Gus was startled by a sensation as of a bul- let piercing his thorax. It was only Captain Borax poking him in the ribs, by way of r<«minde> that his ‘“‘hour had alinost come!”
In a brief space—how very brief it seemed—they were on the fatal field At nearly the same instant a cluse car- riage drove up, containing the enemy's party.
Smith’s second sprang ont, closing the door behind him. He took Captain Borax aside, and the two held a hasty consultation; which over, the ground measured, pistolsloaded, positions allot ted, and everything in readiness, it only remained to place the men and give the word.
The combatants were tostand back tu back, and, at a signal, to wheel and fire. Gus had already taken his place, and was struggling, manfully but doubtfully, against an inclination, will-n‘¢b irresistible, to leap over an id jacent hedge, and run as fast aid far as his legs could carry him, when an exclamation from the captain caused him to turn his head.
“In Heaven’s name, who's that?” said Captain Borax, accesting the fellow- second, in the act of conducting a young and beautiful lady to the very spot des- tined for Smith.
‘* My principal, gentlemen, Miss Sam- antha Smith—‘Sam Smith,’ as she’s called for short.’ the other answered.
Gus saw it all.
