MAINTAINING A FULL FLOW OF MILK
During the months of July and August
in our latitude, the full flow of milk is fre
quently checked. In most instances grass
fails. Sometimes, however, farmers have
kept too many animals on a given surface;
and many cows have kept the grass from
growing, and the usual flow of milk has di
minished. Dairymen slide into this prac
tice of over-stocking their pastures at a
season of the year when grass grows freely.
A cow consumes a certain amount of feed
to sustain and to repair the waste of her
body. If she can have more than enough
for this purpose the surplus will be conver
ted into milk Therefore, if feed is short,
the flow of milk must inevitably diminish.
Breeding is another cause .of diminution in
the quantity of milk. Some cows, even
when supplied with all the good grass tin y
will consume, will fall oil" in milk within a
few weeks after being got with calf ; and
there is sometimes so much shrinkage in
the amount of milk, that a cow might be
dried off in a short time. Another common
cause of failure in the flow of milk is, a
want of an abundant supply of pure water.
These are the chief difficulties that peo
ple meet with, who keep few or many
cows. To obviate the difficulty of short
pasturage, a farmer will find it much more
profitable to keep fewer cows and so have
more and better grass, as two cows when
kept on as much grass as they will eat,
will yield more milk than three or four cows
kept on the same feed, for they would find
barely enough to support animal life. By
over-stocking a pasture, most of the grass
is used up to keep the animals alive, with
out improving their condition, while a small
er number would thrive well, and at the
same time, give a good supply of milk.—
Therefore, in order to obtain the greatest
amount of butter or cheese from a given
amount of pasture, the correct way to do it
is to keep few cows and feed well. When
grass fails, they should have at least one
feeding daily of good hay, or green corn
stalks, or a few quarts of meal or bran,
made thin with water. It is quite import
ant that the flow of milk be maintained ;
because, if a cow be allowed to shrink in
the quantity of milk, it is usually quite
difficult, even by extra feeding, to bring it
up again. Sometimes it can be done with
out difficulty. But in most cases it is im
practicable.
\\ lienever it is knotvu that a cow shrinks
in her milk after getting with calf, take
means to prevent it each year until about
three months after the time of turning cows
to grass. The aim should be to have such
cows come in just in time to recover from
the debilitating effects of parturition by the
time grass is large enough for grazing.—
Then her iniik will be had at a season of
the year when cows are usually most prof
itable. But if they are allowed to breed
early in the season, they are frequently ve
ry unprofitable cows ; and improper man
agement renders them still more so.
Cows well fed and properly milked, can
not be expected to yield a large supply,
unless they have an abundance of good
water several times a day. Once or twice
is not sufficient. In hot weather they need
it three times daily. They relish a pailful
of good water as we do a cooling draught
from the "old oaken bucket." And they
must have it or they will not and can not
yield an abundant supply of milk. Large
cows that have access to pure water often
drink from twenty to thirty gallons daily
during the hot weather,and this water as
sists greatly in keeping up the flow of milk.
\\ itiiold a part of it and the supply dimin
ishes. As soon ;ts cows have tilled them
selves with grass they often desire to drink.
They seldom take much water into an emp
ty stomach. Consequently if they are re
quired to drink at a pool of standing, dirty
water, perhaps defiled by dung, they will
drink no more than is absolutely necessary
to sustain lit'.-. Such water is not refresh-
ing to eows, or any other animals ; and no
one need expect that milch cows will keep
up the quantity of milk, so long as they
are required to use such an unwholesome
drink.
RECREATION AND VISITING AMONG FAR
MERS.
This may seem to some a very unsuita
ble topic for this busy time of the year.—
On the contrary, it is specially seasonable.
Mi st farmers make life too much drudgery
for themselves and for their children. By
working hard from morning until night,
and from week to week, with no recreation,
they become dull, and ao not accomplish as
much as they would with a littletimely relaxa
tion, "all work and no play makes Jack a
dull boy." Nor do they enjoy life nearly
so well. They doubtless say to their studs
" I must work hard now, and lay up mon
ey against a time of need, or against old
age : then 1 will rest and enjoy myself"—
They forget that they are arc meanwhile
wearing out their faculties of enjoyment,
and are acquiring habits which will unfit
them for anything but an old age of contin
ued toil. Let farmers bear in mind, too,
the effect of such a life on their children.—
As to the way in which farmers shall
get recreation, we arc not disposed to be
particular. Some will choose to get it in
one way, and some in another. One very
good method is to make up an occasional
pic-nic. Fix on a pleasant afternoon, and
take the whole family to some neighboring
grove, where the children can romp, where
the older folks can rest, and all have a
good supper. If several families can unite,
it will be all the better. Another way, is
to make short visits to the neighbors. To
do this, it will not be needful to consume a
whole day ; this would be an unnecessary
loss to you and a bore to your neighbor
But seize on the broken, half-days, or even
the hour or two after tea, and ride over to
neighbor A's, or neighbor l)'s. lie will be
glad to show you his stock and his crops,
and liis orchard. You will learn something
front him, and he from you. At any rate,
you will get recreation, and will return to
your home and your daily labor with new
zest.
CARE WITH STRAW AND FODDER.
A great deal of discussion has occurred
of late years as to the comparative value
of straw, cornstalks, hay, Ac. The divers
ity of views, which is obvious, is no doubt
owing largely to the imperfect manner in
which these different substances are cured
and preserved. One farmer, for example,
finds the use of straw of great value, keep
ing his cattle and other domestic animals
in excellent condition, with a very little
grain or meal. Another denounces it as
nearly worthless, as his bony cattle abund
antly indicate. On further examination,
we find that the first has taken much pains
to secure his straw in the best order—the
other has neglected it, allowed it to become
wet, musty and unpalatable. The same
result has taken place with clover hay—
one man has it lresh, green and excellent ;
with another it is black, tasteless, or re
pulsive, having been washed by rains or
become mouldy bv partial drying. The
same difference exists with corn-fodder
resulting in one instance from timely
cutting, and securing in stiff, erect shocks
—while in the other the stalks are cut out
of season, badly put up, tipped over by
winds or by their weight, and drenched,
blackened and rotted by long rains. Who
can expect his cattle to eat and thrive on
this incipient manure?
The season is now approaching when
farmers should give especial attention to
this subject. Those who are about to cut
their wheat, should remember that if bar
vested before the heads droop and become
fully ripe, or while in the dough state, (the
tips of the chaff being yet green,) the grain
is better and even heavier —the straw, if
well dried, is brighter and more valuable
for feeding. Therefore, cut early, secure
in good, well protected shocks, until fully
dry, and place the straw when thrashed,
either under a roof, or else in as well built
stacks as are deemed requisite for hay.
Hay should be well aud evently dried
—not in lumps or buuclies, or in badly
dried cocks, where it becomes yellow and
sour. A good hay tedder, run by two
horses, however valuable it may prove in
expediting work, and saving labor in
dodging stones, will doubtless be found
still more valuable in consequence of the
perfection of the hay it will enable the
farmer to manufacture.
SALT FOR CATTLE-
In the communication on this subject
from 11. P. B. on page 364 of the current
volume of the CCUXTKY GENTLEMAN, he points
out very clearly the necessity of furnishing
salt to c ittle by showing that it forms a
part of their composition and secretions.—
lie has, however, in common with most
writers on this subject, omitted to state the
fact that all or nearly all vegetable food
contains a portion of common salt. Timo
thy hay lias, for example, according to some
analyses, over five cent, of the ash in salt
and allowing the ash to be ten per cent, of
the dry hay, which is frequently the case,
then every two hundred pounds of hay will
contain one of salt, and the animal that
consumes twenty-five pounds daily neces
sarily swallows at the same time two oun
ces of salt. At the same rate, a ton of hay
will contain ten pounds of salt, which is
about half as much as writers usually rec
ommend to be applied to the hay by suc
cessive sprinkling in the mow--and possi
bly quite as much as animals should have.
Other kinds of hay contain different quan
tities —red clover, for instance, being usu
ally found to yield about two-thirds as
much as timothy—Kentucky blue grass
considerably less, and it may be advisable
to apply more salt artificially to the lat
ter.
It has been very common with chemical
farmers to urge the artificial application in
food or in manure of whatever analyses in
dicated as needed by the animal or the
growing plant. This has led to a great
deal of error. For the food given the ani
mal in one case may contain ten times its
much of a certain ingredient as may he as
similated, or the soil already possess ten
times the amount of some other ingredient
needed by the growing plant.
An acquaintance who was a strict home
opathist, declined taking any food that con
tained the slightest quantity of soda or of
salt—for the reason that these or other
earthy or saline substauces would entirely
counteract or spoil the effect of the minute
doses of medicine. The error of this course
was at once pointed out, by showing that
every hundred pounds of wheat flour con
tained among its component parts ten oun
ces of potash, four ounces of soda, one
ounce of lime, live ounces of magnesia,
nineteen ounces of phosphoric acid, Ac.,
and every hundred pounds of Indian meal
contained eight ounces of potash and soda,
four ounces of magnesia, Ac.
It may be true in ordinary experience
that an addition of some of these ingredi
ents would be better than the natural quan
tity. Experiment alone can settle such
points as this ; and if cattle are found to
thrive better by adding salt to common
bay, this result is sufficient and settles the
question. All we desire is, that in theori
zing merely in proof of the importance of
any practice, all the facts developed by sci
entific investigation should be brought to
bear, and not a part only. J.
BREAKING COLTS
In the spring of the year, while the
ground is soft and the temper sobered by
low feed and a relaxing atmosphere, is the
best time to commence handling colts.
In the first place, the handling of colts
should not be entrusted to reckless and
foolish boys, who will g<> about it without
sense or reason. The education of a colt
| is like the education of a child, requiring
just as much judgment, and more watchful
ness, than when the colt or child come to a
better understanding of themselves and
those they have to deal with.
The first operation is what is usually
termed halter-breaking ; but all colts should
be handled with the halter from the time
they are able to run with the dam, and
should need no " halter-breaking." When
tliis is done, the first operation is to accus
tom the colt to the bridle bit. This should
be done with perfect gentleness and pro
gressive application of the rein, so that the
, colt will understand what is wanted, in
stead of being astonished by applications
which he cannot comprehend. To put a
green colt into a bitting tackle, truss up
his neck until his chin nearly touches his
breast, and thus leave him for half a day
to sulk in the barn-yard, is an infernal out
rage that ought to be a penitentiary offence.
•The pain thus thoughtlessly or purposely
inflicted is excruciating and inexcusable.
Along with the lessons of bridle wisdom,
should come the first lesson in bareback
riding, or riding upou a blanket and sur
cingle ; from which proceed to gentle exer
cise under the saddle.
The next step is to put the colt in har
ness, by the side of a steady and reliable
horse. The harness should be put on for a
while, several times, so he will become ac
customed to it, before being called upon to
draw in it.
Breaking a colt, is a misnomer ; a colt
should never be broken, but tamed and ed
ucated. A colt that is broken has lost the
best qualities of horse-hood. A colt that
is thoroughly educated has arrived at the
.perfection of his race.- -Ohio Farmer.
A NEW VINE DISEASE.— Last season
there appeared upon the vines around New
\ ork a desease which has this season show
ed itself still more generally. It seems to
attack the Concord in preference to other
varieties, and if not checked, threatens to
be a serious matter to vinegrowers. It
first shows itself by swellings on the fresh
ly formed wood, and later appears as well
defined blotches with a surface depressed
somewhat below the general surface of the
stem. The growth of the branch, thus af
fected, is arrested and the fruit drops --
1 his has been attributed to wounds made
by the common June bug, but this can
hardly be the case, as cultivators, who
have carefully watched their vines, assure
us that they are unable to discover that
insects have any agency in the matter.
