A Sale of Milking Shorthorns 
The Bradford County (Pa.) Milking 
Shorthorn Breeders’ Association staged 
their third annual sale at Troy on June 
11. The day was perfect, and the at¬ 
tendance the largest that has been at any 
of their sales. The average on 80 head 
was $510, not quite as high as last year, 
but. considering the business outlook of 
the country a much better showing of the 
growing popularity of the breed. The 
highest price ever paid for a heifer of 
this breed ($4,000) was paid by Mr. Otis 
of Ohio for the yearling heifer Minnie of 
Glenside. lx)fler & Son consigned four 
roan yearling heifers in the very best of 
bloom. They were all taken by one buyer 
at $1,000 each. Most of the animals sold 
were taken by farmers just starting in 
the breeding of purebred stock, and in 
my opinion they ai'e making no mistake. 
Although, the milking Shorthorns have not 
made any phenomenal seven or 30-day 
tests, they have shown an ability to pro¬ 
duce satisfactory yield at a profit, and 
have come back year after year. 
Mamie’s Minnie has a record of 16,201 
lbs. milk in one year and an average for 
three consecutive years of 15,160 lbs. 
Gem of Glenside has a record of 11,160 
lbs. in one year and 10,920 lbs. for four 
years. Ethel of Glenside has a four-year 
average of 10,186 lbs. milk and 400 lbs. 
fat, and from May 20, 1020, to April 1, 
1921, she has made 13.157 lbs. milk and 
507 lbs. fat. Odette has 14,001 lbs. milk 
and 545 lbs. fat in one year when 15 
years old, and an eight-year average of 
9,751 lbs. Livia Rose has a record of 
13,358 lbs. milk in one year and five 
years’ average of 10,160 lbs. Rose Brad¬ 
ford made a Cow-testing Association 
record last year of 12.368 lbs. milk and 
506 lbs. of fat. and this year, in March, 
she averaged 528 lbs. milk per day and 
made 66 lbs. fat; and these are but a 
few of the many good records made by 
the cows of this breed. A. H. PRINCE.

Garget 
I have a five-year-old cow due to have 
her fourth calf in one month. She has 
always been bard to dry up, but never 
any sign of garget until now. A month 
ago I began to try to dry her up, and 
saw signs of garget. I have given* her 
aconite, and also saltpeter, but when I 
strip heT morning and night I get very 
little, but that little is lumpy. Can you 
help me? j. E. s. 
New Hampshire. 
Aconite is a very dangerous drug, and 
should not be given by anyone except a 
trained doctor. The saltpeter may be 
given once daily in _a dose of half an 
ounce along with a similar dose of pow¬ 
dered pokeroot. Strip away the remain¬ 
ing milk at increasing intervals and twice 
daily rub in a mixture of two parts each 
of fluid extract of belladonna leaves and 
pokeroot and four parts of compound soap 
liniment. Feed light, dry rations. 
Chill 
We have a horse seven years old, 
started to work him the other day, worked 
him half a, day, then he rested half a 
day. I plowed with him about three 
hours, when a shower of rain came; the 
rain was a little cold; it lasted about 
five minutes. All at once the. horse 
stopped, pulled back, and held his head 
to one side. He was trembling all over, 
and tried to get away. We managed to 
get him to the barn; took the harness 
off, but was still trembling. We blanketed 
him and put him in the barn, although 
he could hardly move. In about 10 min¬ 
utes he was all right. What was the 
trouble? r. A. 
Maryland. 
The horse, no doubt, had a chill from 
cold rain wetting him when warm. Stiff¬ 
ness would be a natural result. Stim- 
lants and a thorough rubbing, followed 
by warm blanketing would be the proper 
treatment at the time. A sudden attack 
of “staggers,” due to idleness and over¬ 
feeding, may cause somewhat similar 
symptoms, therefore see to it that the 
horse is never allowed to stand for a 
single day without work or exercise, and 
when there is no work for him to do stop 
the grain ration.
