A study by W A Stocking shows that pre milking feeding and brushing increase bacteria in milk, while damp wiping before milking reduces contamination. Stripping lowers bacteria next milking, leaving milk in the udder raises it. Clean barns, light, air, and sanitary manure care are urged to meet demand for better milk at reasonable cost. The milker’s habits also influence germ content.
The article extols the machine manure spreader for large fields, arguing it shreds big chunks, blankets the soil evenly, and distributes bacteria from stable manure for better plant growth. It claims efficiency, saves money, and boosts crop yields and prosperity.
Instructions from National Stockman and Farmer on chick feeding describe a progression from bread and milk to a cornmeal and middlings mash. The method mixes two parts cornmeal with one part middlings, adds just-boiling water, stirs to partial cook, then adds more dry mix until crumbly for a palatable chick feed.
The passage lists cool season crops safe to sow outdoors near New York City toward the end of March in ordinary seasons. It names beets carrots leeks onions peas potatoes radishes spinach and turnips as the earliest varieties for planting.
The article describes pioneer deeds planting farm groves on western prairies choosing varieties like willow cottonwood and black walnut. It notes drought wiped Lombardy poplars in 1894 and argues for modest grove sizes to yield firewood and long term value, with planting patterns to ensure straight成长 trees.
The piece humorously notes a ground hog’s fallible predictions and a poet who eats three times daily, casting doubt on whether posterity will remember either. It reads as a light, aphoristic meditation on memory and fame.
