wreckage.MTNo.1 and No.I sold ia Shtrbrooko bf DruegisU Imiinre Wafer.The dirty brook should he a theme for thought by more than one dairyman.The man that has no running brook on his farm is more likely to have good water for ids cows than the man that thinks he is blessed by a stream of running water.Where the stream is rapid moving and fairly deep it may serve for a drinking place the year round, but in most of our western states the conformation of the laud is not such that a stream is either swift or deep or clear.In states that are filled with mountains and bills and forests the streams to a large extent remain pure the year round.The soil on their banks is held In place by a multitude of vegetable growths.Frequently they run over a bed of stones and are little exposed to Impurities from the immediate banks.Such brooks may, in mountainous localities, serve ns a suitable drinking place for the cattle most of the year or until the summer drought renders them stagnant.But In this great level country of the west conditions are different.The ordinary brook should never be depended on as the water supply for the cattle.There are few times In the year when It Is safe for them to drink from it If the dairyman wants to keep both animals and animal products pure.In the midsummer especially It is a positive detriment to the dairy business.The man with the slimy, muddy brooks too often neglects to have a pure water supply, which his brother farmer, who has no brook.Is compelled to supply.We have seen such streams In summer become muddy wallows where the cows both stood and drank.There Is no doubt that animals, like humans, contract many diseases solely through bad drinking water.On many farms the conformation of the land Is such that shallow streams may be made sanitary by deepening the central channel and sinking a few shallow wells in their beds at various places If the pasture is so large that the cattle would have to travel a great distance on a hot day to get water.—Farmers’ Review.Persistent Milking Wins.Last season, when the price for calves went skyward, many farmers who had patronized the creamery and raised the calves on skimmilk thought they could see more money and less bother In letting the calves suck the cows.The indications are that this year calves will not be worth as much money, and as the cattle stock of the country increases to the normal calves will further decrease in value.Those farmers who stopped milking and turned in the calves will then see the mistake they made.They will find that their cows are not nearly as good milkers as they were before, and it will take them several years to build up an efficient dairy herd again.If there Is any one thing about dairy log that has been thoroughly and coin pletely demonstrated.It Is that milk Ing makes milkers.The best cow In the world can be ruined as a milker in a comparatively short time by simply letting the eifft suck her or by carelessness in milking.The poorest cow can be Improved by continued and persistent milking.The man who has 10 or 12 or more cows and milks them year In and year out, keeps right at It and practices Improved methods of feeding will get ahead right along.It don’t pay to milk the cows one year and let the calves suck the next.— Crsamcry Gazette.EXHIBITION WEE Oup Stores will be Open Every Evening.We will be pleased
