She rose from the table at which she had been silting, six feet of gaunt, capable bone and muscle, and stalked to the window.

Increase and develop new cclla. cially tions when you Contentment of Cow Is Important Milk Factor , It Is a well known fact that If a cow Is to produce to her maximum cnpnclty she must at all times be kept quiet and contented. Anything that disturbs this condition of the cow will have a tendency to lessen production and to form the habit of "holding up" cf milk. All Influences which conduce to the quietude and comfort of the cow will Increase milk production while the opposite Influence will have the tendency to lessen production and also has the tendency for the cow to "hold up" nil'k. Any excitement or rough handling of the cow will have a tendency to cause a cow to "hold up" milk. After a cow has once formed this habit It Is ver- - difficult to break her of It Sometimes this vice Is the result of the excltemeu when the calf Is weaned. There Is no cure for this vice. All that you can do is to plae the cow In the most favorable clrcumstnnces while the milking Is being done. A very good way to do Is to feed tt cow some grain or mil! feed while the milking Is being done. If .the cow has not been fresh very long It will lielp If the" calf Is placed where the cow can see It When this habit has become chronic the best thing to do is to sell the cow to the butcher. Cow Is Largest Manure Producing Farm Animal The cow la the largest manure-producin- g animal on the farm and while Its excreta Is least rich In fertilizing elements, the large volume places It as the most Important manure produced In mixed and dairy farming. Horse manure Is distinctly richer In nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash than cow manure but its open character makes It more liable to fermentation and unless carefully conserved It loses Its valuable constituents quite rapidly. For this reason the best plan Is to mix these two manures. n nmmmm l To Identify Genuine Aspirin increasing use of Bayer Aspirin every year is proof it haa no ill effects.
