AQUiÂ¥eerd ag is + N22 i vo +d In my opinion . something along the above lines should be worked out in Canada, with ‘the creamery or cheese factory as the nucieus of the movement. The tester would make the factory his headquarters and if the farmers were trusted to do the weighing of the milk and taking of the samples, it would be possible for one man to do the work for alil the farms sending milk to the average factory. He would require to visit each farm before the test started; take note of ali conditions, record the numâ€" ber, age, etc.. of each cow, feed uged, etc.; show how the weighing and â€" sampling should be done; leave enough > twoâ€"ounce bottles with initials of farmer and numâ€" bers stamped thereon to take sepâ€" 1899â€"1900 5,162 191 £,.34 1900â€"1901 5,284 202 344 1901â€"1902 6,1014 238 3.50 This shows an improvomenat in the average yielkl of 47 lbs. butter per cow by iesting and selecting in three years. The work of these associations is evidently the keyâ€" note of â€" cheaper milk production, and the â€" coâ€"operative â€" plan offers the only means of securing systemâ€" atic testing. The Maelikert Tidende sends blanks to the associations, and when these are filled publishes them and sends copics to all the members. Indeed everyone interested in dairying helpâ€" od the plan along, and this explains why there are now 250 such assoâ€" clations. As an example of the practical results obtained three years‘ work of the Faarus Association may be anoted. Accopding to theyMaelkert Tiâ€" derde, the average results per cow in the herds tested were as folâ€" lows : In 1900 wo find four distinct asâ€" sociations comjsrising in all about 240 tost associations, and the results compila«l from the reports of the various <dastricts furnish a groat deal of valuablo information. _ For instance, the old notion that a larger flow of milk must nccessarily give a lower percentage of fat was disâ€" proved. _ Most important of all a coâ€"operation was effected between the test associations and the breedâ€" ors‘ associations, (bull associations), and a chicf inspector was appointâ€" ed in one district, who . helped to select the cows entitled to be bred to certain bulls and to supervise the keeping of the herd books. ; Large Yield of Rich Milk; The membership should be limited temporarily to 12 or 13, who agreed ta let the milk of each cow be testâ€" ed every fourteen days; the _ exâ€" penses should be distributed in proâ€" portion to the fat tosts made, and collectedi twice a year; three diâ€" rectors should be chosen, one _ of whom should Ftesign every _ third year after the first two years, and who should elect a President and Secretaryâ€"Treasurer ; â€" the Associaâ€" tion should continue for five years, and no member should withdraw beâ€" fore that time, unless on account of removas from the district." The diâ€" rectors of the association engaged a "tester," who took samples and tested the milk of each cow, and for w hose use reliable _ apparatus was bought. ‘This tester alâ€" E0 kept exact records of the milk yield of each cow and the {ocel consumed in proportion to the yiold ofi butter, and also prepared tables showing the comparative vialue of the various individual cows and herds as economical producers, so that those cows having spocial values for breeding purposes might be selected. Growth of the Associations. At the close of the first year‘s work the Government appropriated $2,500 to be divided between assoâ€" clations which made proper reports, and the plan spread very rapidly. By 1897 it had been clearly demonâ€" strated that the "testers" were also usceful in securing better milk for the creameries, and the dairy paper Maclkert Tidende soon had frequent discussions as to the work of these associations, notably as rogards seâ€" curing uniform reports from the various associations. Joint meetings wore held and sevoral weak features of the scheme pointed out. In 1898 $4,250 was appropriated for the supâ€" port of tho various associations, and in 1899 the Vejen association again took the lead in including a report as to tha raising of caives and hogs. In the same year, at a general meetâ€" ing of all the local agricultural asâ€". sociations, the blank forms for the test associations were fully discussâ€". od and uniform methods agreed upon. 1 The original association, that of Yein, had 13 members, aggregating 300 cows, and the first year‘s exâ€" penses were $175; but the Governâ€" ment recognized at once the imâ€" portance of this movement, and gave them a grant of $62.50. Some of the byâ€"laws of. the original asâ€" sociation declared that: *"The obâ€" ject of the association was to build up a& _ race of cows which wouid cive a Objects of Testing Associations. Four chief objects are kept in view in "Drganizing _ these testing assoâ€" ciations: 1. That the feed â€" given the cows must, as much as possible, be weighed or measured. 2. That each cow‘s doaily nulk yield is weighâ€" ed once per week, or at least suifiâ€" clently often so that accidental inâ€" liuences may not have any serious effect. 3. That the percentage of fat in each cow‘s milk yield is testâ€" ed sufliciently often to eliminate acâ€" cidental influences. 4. That an exâ€" att account is kept in such a manâ€" ner is to show the relation between the butter yield and the food conâ€" sumed, y The farmers of _ Denmark have evoived a very successful coâ€"operaâ€" live system of testing dairy cows, which has proved of great value in raising the standard of their herds. A ehort sketch of the plan which they have followed may prove of inâ€" terest to Canadian dairymen, who might _ well imitate their Danish compelitors in this particalar at least. § C0â€"OPERATIVE TESTING $ IN DANISH DAIRIES.

"You talk about luck! Look at Jim Buckshaw. The other day when the cold snap came on, a big icicle formed on one of his eaves, It must have been ten feoet long, and Jim got afraid it would drop down and brain somebody. He used to stand by the gate warning people to look out for it, because he didn‘t want anybody to get smashâ€" ed, and have to pay damages."" "Yesm, I ‘spose it fell at last ?" * "Yes, it fell the day the sun came out good arn®m strong. It fell straight Gdown, just missing Jim‘s wife, and entered the ground, and at once «lisappeared.

That icicle struck oil, sir, and Jim has a well there now ‘that runs 100 barrels a day. Queer about some people‘s luck, isn‘t‘ it ?"â€"Cleveland Plain Dealer. "Again there are times when I take a ‘quick refresher, as I call a bath made of pine needies. It is most invigorating to the whole «systam. From a chemist my maid obtains the needles and twigs of the pine, which she cuts into small poeces and boils {for hall an hour.
