Drying Off Cow 
- j light a heifer due to freshen the 
Second tuae a month. Shall I milk her 
as long as she gives milk, or shall I dry 
her up? Which will be the better for a 
family cow when only one is kept? She 
gives nearly four quarts per day now. 
Virginia. s. h.c. 
It would be best to rest the cow for six 
weeks before calviug by drying oft’ the 
milk flow. This i i managed by gradually 
lengthening the periods between milking, 
then cutting out one of them, and finally 
stopping the milking process when milk 
secretion practically has ceased. If this 
proves difficult, or the slightest inflamma¬ 
tion starts, bathe with hot water two or 
three times daily and then rub in warmed 
camphorated oil.
