^ DAIRY WISDOM.
» After tbe cream baa been pro j^ duced and kept in the l)e«t of ^ If condition it is Ktiil possible jf through carelessnefls or igno- 4 ranee to spoil the butter. T Jt is almost imiKxisible to make » a satlnfactory churning in n cold ^ room.

five years the nvcrnjte yield of butter fat was 4~T> pounds, an average In¬ crease of '.iUO pounds per cow.
Pall calriuK cows should annually yield from 10 to 15 per cent more milk tban those calving In tbe spring. This beliiK true, an even greater increase in butter fat would result for tbe average test of tbe milk Is somewhat higher in the winter than In tbe summer months. (Jood authorities claim tbnt the In¬ creased yield of butter fat secured from fall calving as compared with spring calving cows Is at least 20 per cent. The extreme heat of summer often causes the fat content in a cow's milk to drop. 1 have known Guernsey cows giving milk testing around 5 per cent drop to almost 3 per cent during a lime of extremely hot weather, —K.

Value of Corn Silage.
When corn is put into the silo it
Iocs not increase in feeding value.
I liiirlni; the process of fermentation a
I portion of the nutrients are lost. It Is
estliiiiited that from M to 10 i>er cent ot ' the lecdiiig value y>f the corn is de- I stroyeil hy the process of ferinenlatioii ; in llie silo. Coin ne\er has a liiirlier I feedinj; value than when it i.s cut .'iihI I put into tlie silo. It may be said, iiow I e\er. that tbere Is no method of preserv I \utx the corn plant that will save any 1 more of its nutrients than ensilin,c. I and no intitter what system is follow
ei| of preserving It some of the sub I stance of the corn Is lost.—Floard's

Sour Milk For Calves.
'i'he I'lilteil States department of lairyjim has found out that sour milk Is exactly as good to feed a calf as the sweet article. The I'lilf will grow as fast .•md make ;is many pounds of meat and Is as lie:ilthy In every way. provid eil-li<teii-the uillk vessels and the feeding pails arc kept absolutely clean, sweet .Mnd fr(>e of old food. The lactic add of the milk does no harm: It's the outride germs Ihat Iind lodgment in the teams and corners of the feeding uten- »lls that cause the untl'rift and disease ^¦\ '"soiir milk" calve".
The Milk Separator, Mu<'li of the abuse that bas been ¦oadiKl upon the hand separator should in' transferred to the nst>r nf the sepa¬ rator. The machine' in Itself is a won¬ derful invention and bas a place in the o<'onomy of -dairying, but It Is a ma¬ chine ^at I'flnnot l>e abused without workitifi an injury upon tbe user.
