4 -r-LancaSier Farming. Saturday, January 23. 1980 FROM WHERE WE STAND - The Romance Of Cow Milking Scarcely any farm youngster used to reach maturity without haying milk ed a goodly number of cows. Some didn’t mind the chore, perhaps even enjoyed it in comparison with other barnyard duties that would have occu pied them had not the cows come first. Others, however, probably sprouted the seed of wanderlust that took them away from the farm while pumping ■streams of white fluid into the milk pail.

In any case, cow milking is pretty much a lost art today, and even bona fide farm kids, with such experience no doubt are in the minority. Perhaps they are just as well off, too, though few would realize it. Most of them probably have an understandable curi psity about cow milking; prompted by Stories they hear about it from their elders. Sensing the need perhaps to fill this void in modern experience, and have a little fun, too, the American Dairy Association has come up with a special guide-sheet to cow milking, which leads off with: "The cow does not give the milk. You have to take it from her.” The guide-sheet continues. “Use both hands. The method which makes you an expert is to squeeze one hand, then the other. Either start on the two front spigots or work the diagonal method. The cow has four spigots lo cated toward the rear and low. “Cut 'your fingernails; nothing un nerves a cow so much as a set of long, sharp nails. She shows her displeasure by (1) stepping into, the milk pail; (2) stepping on your left foot (3) clonking you soundly in the neck with her tail; (4) hoisting you, stool, pail and parts of the barn into the air with her back feet “If she stares at you, stare right back. Besides giving good nourishing milk, the next best thing that a cow dpes is stare—at her manger, the hired Davidson THIS WEEK —ln Washington #- With Clinton Davidson Food Scare Facts man and particularly city folks out on a picnic. Work slowly, A cow oper ates like a toothpaste tube. Give the milk time to get out. First squeeze the index finger, then the third finger, finishing with the little finger. Reverse the process and you are in trouble. “Aim for the pail. Important and tightly fought contests have been lost because too much milk was directed outside the pail. It is milk in the pail that counts. Try shooting for distance sometime. The world’s record is a round 30 feet.” Well, we aren’t sure about the prac ticality of some of this advice for seri ous cow milkers, but it does take us back more years than we like to ad mit. And perhaps it’s true that the next best thing to milking cows is reading about it, though the latter seems to have the edge over the form er at the moment. —Chicago Daily Drovers Journal A DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE A college student who sees the steady regimentation of individual-ac tivitiy in the United States writes: “Man is a political animal accord ing to the Greeks. Anyone who could live alone must be a barbarian or an animal. But the Greeks also believed in moderation. Therefore it is possible for man to be too much of a political animal. There is too much ‘together ness’ atmosphere in our society. As a result, anyone who doesn’t enjoy be ing surrounded every second by his fellow man is considered unadjusted. Togetherness is all around us. It is oppressive and suffocating, insidious and inescapable. It is the ally of con formity and the endless ranks of the little grey men with the expressionless faces who march across our land. Long live the man who dares to step out of line! For upon his shoulders shall rest the future 'of the world.” God Changes Lives ■ , \ Lesson for January 24, 1960 TO USE PIG AND LAMB BROODi the next few months will see the bn thousands of baby pigs and lambs t out the country; proper care the first days is very important if they are to good; one important practice is to ' vent chillingr Electric brooders in corner of the pen is a very common r od of providing needed warmth and ness to get them off to a good start.
