To anyone interested in 
improving his herd of dairy 
cattle by the addition of some 
rich Jersey blood, I will, on 
request, send free a hand¬ 
some large picture of Julia’s 
Majesty, A.J.C.C., 89717, to¬ 
gether with his full pedigree 
and description. 
We have a few of his sons, 
from four months to a year 
old, that we will sell at very 
low prices. These animals 
are good enough to go in 
any herd, as they are from 
Register of Merit dams pro¬ 
ducing from 400-lbs. of but¬ 
ter per year upward and of 
splendid breeding and type 
—many of them imported 
from the Island of Jersey.

Overdose of Tuberculin. 
W OULD a cow tested for tuberculosis 
that had an over quantity of tuber¬ 
culin injected show an increased 
temperature even if sound? Our dairy of 
.‘50 cows was tested about a week ago by 
local veterinarian, only one showing an 
increased temperature (106 deg.). I 
have a slight suspicion the proper quan¬ 
tity was not used in her case; she ap¬ 
peared a bit stiff the day after test, es¬ 
pecially in near fore leg. She is the most 
thought of cow in dairy, and we should 
be sorry to lose her. She stood test all 
right February. 10115. How soon could 
she be tested again? c. if. 
An excessive dose of tuberculin would 
not produce the rise in a cow’s tempera¬ 
ture characteristic of tuberculosis; dou¬ 
ble the usual amount is used when occa¬ 
sion demands it as when, after repeated 
tests, the animal’s system becomes more 
resistant to its action. The length of 
time which an injection of tuberculin will 
prevent reaction to a subsequent one is 
a variable one. but it is customary to 
make re-tests after six weeks. There are 
several conditions which may prevent re¬ 
action in a tuberculous animal and only 
repeated negative tests at considerable 
intervals can be considered positive evi¬ 
dence of freedom from the disease. 
M. B. D. 
Milking Fresh Cow. 
I would like .T. Grant Morse to explain 
why he drew so little milk from his 
cow’s udder at first. r. e. p. 
I did not milk my cow out clean at 
first because I was afraid of milk fever. 
The doctors think that this disease is 
caused by the sudden cluing.,* M' shock 
to the cow’s system. The milk is se¬ 
creted from the blood by the gland known 
as the udder. Our best cows secrete an 
enormous quantity when they first fresh¬ 
en and before they freshened they were 
secreting none at all. So it is a gen¬ 
eral practice among the “men who know 
how” to draw but little milk at • first, 
and so hold in check the secretion until 
the system can adjust itself to the change. 
Will Dr. Alexander give this thing to us 
so that we can all understand it? 
J. GRANT MORSE. 
Age of Cattle. 
IIow can the age of a cow be told when 
she has no horns? w. K. 
By her teeth. Any expert can give you 
instructions, or you can get them from 
a veterinary text book. a. s. a. 
Salivation. 
I have a horse that when she eats her 
corn scatters about a half gallon of 
water. Do you know any remedy for it? 
New York. f. g. 
A diseased molar tooth, or sharp teeth, 
or a sore tongue or the presence of 
stones (calculi) in the salivary ducts, 
are causes of such profuse flow of saliva. 
Have a qualified veterinarian make an 
examination. a. s. a. 
Grass for Work Horses. 
Which is better for horses that are 
kept at work all the time except Sunday, 
to feed a mixture of corn and oats with 
Timothy and clover hay. and keep it at 
night and Sunday, or feed grain and turn 
out at night on blue grass pasture? Of 
course if they are turned out a* night 
they will have what hay they want.

Hard worked horses do best when fed 
hay. oats and bran, without green grass, 
if the owner can afford such feeding. 
Grass tends to loosen and soften a work 
horse, but most small farmers allow their 
horses to pasture when possible, and 
claim to have seen no ill effects. If grass 
is to be used give it every day, not at 
irregular periods. a. s. a. 
Dropsical Swellings. 
Some of my sheep have a swelling un¬ 
der the jaw. The swelling seems soft at 
first and then becomes hard. I have lost 
I several from this in other years. In other 
sheep it gradually disappeared. What is 
the remedy? I do not find the disease 
mentioned in any of the books on sheep.

The swellings do not constitute a dis¬ 
ease. but merely indicate anemia (blood¬ 
lessness) from the ravages of intestinal 
parasites, or some other debilitating dis¬ 
ease. On general principles medicines to 
destroy worms should be administered. A 
tablespoonful of gasoline in new milk is 
appropriate and may be repeated two or 
three times at intervals of two days. This 
kills stomach worms, or drives them out 
of the sheep. If tape worms are present 
freshly powdered kamala in a two-dram 
dose is best. It is administered after 
starving the sheep for 18 hours or more. 
Generous feeding is indicated in all such 
cases, and the sheep should have new 
grass, rather than old, tainted pastures.

The successful dairyman has judgment, 
business ability and courage. Cutting down 
expenses is not enough. He must know how 
to invest. 
Appl business methods to your farm, keep 
a record of the net profit from each cow and 
you’ll soon convince yourself of the economy 
of putting your money into efficient milkers. 
You’ll find one good Holstein will do the 
work of two, perhaps three, ordinary cows. 
You save greatly on feed, and divide the ex¬
