In order to give an honest test a uniform sample must he taken from each can. The only way the creamery man can get a uniform sample to make an accurate test is to stir this cream to a smooth consistency. It would take longer to stir this cold cream than to churn it He, therefore, dives down in the middle of the can and takes his sample for testing. If he took his sample out of the bottom of the can it wouldnt be fair to you, and at the top It wouldnt be fair to the creamery. Now had you sent this cream to the creamery a smooth velvety consistency without lumps, there would have, been no difficulty getting an accurate sample, which means dollars in your pocket. As soon as the cream is cooied, it J s poured Into the shipping can or a vessel that holds that amount and the whole stirred, not with a spoon or ladle, as this only stirs the cream around and around in the can without mixing the first cream with the last. But stir with a regular cream stirrer, the kind that creameries use, with a broad lifting surface that will actually bring the bottom cream up and mix it with the top. Regularity in Milking Dairy Herd Is Essential Regularity has a value in handling the dairy herd. We sometimes wonder if farmers as a In the class are forgetting this. we are which best with neighborhood '.acquainted it was once the custom on almost all farms to start milking at rave in the morning in summer and six The hour was seldom j in winter. varied and plans were always laid to ne on hand at the proper time for chores, says a writer in the Montreal Family Herald. Now, on these same farms, the cows are milked all the way from six to eight oclock, depending on how late the men were out the night before. If there is something on in the evening the cows that were milked at eight may be milked again at five. This is not a universal condition but it is a true statement of what happens on too many farms. These men are also frank to admit that they are not getting the milk that they did years ago before life became so hectic. We believe that farmers are entitled to a good time as well as any other class. Said good times, however, should not be allowed to interfere too seriously with regularity in attention to the dairy cows. Nor is it necessary. The men around who are still practicing e regularity seem to have their good times as well as their more careless neighbors. dollars-and-cent- s old-tim- Watch Cows Diet Prior to Her Freshening Date Cows about ready to freshen should be kept handy to the barn where they may be watched and cared for. Equal parts ground oats and bran or two parts bran to one part corn meal are good grain feeds for the last two weeks. Cows should freshen in good flesh. The grain should be cut down just before calving. Cows after calving should get plenty of water and green feed with the laxative grain ration. If no pasture or green feed is available,, use beet pulp soaked in three or four times its weight in water. The main grain mixture ' should be increased gradually, but grain should be fed sparingly until the cow is completely free of fever. Milk Production Cost .'on Wisconsin Farms A study of the cost of milk production on 48 Wisconsin farms, made by the bureau of agricultural economics, United States Department of Agriculture, and the University of Wisconsin, showed that the amount cf man labor averaged 171 hours' per cow annually, or 28 minutes a day. This labor included milking, feeding, caring for utensils,' and cleaning the barn, but not hauling manure from the barn, delivering milk, or caring for young stock; Some farmers spent as little as 20 minutes a day per cow, and others as much as 45.
