LEADING IN THE COWS.—Elizabeth, a three-year-old goose, leading in the cows for milking on a dairy farm near Sydney. This has been a daily ritual for two years. The owner of the goose said: “Elizabeth took to this cattle round-up quite naturally. We had nothing to do with it. Every day at milking time she waddles up to the paddock and squawks and cackles until the cows fall into line. Then she either leads or herds them down to the dairy. She does it again when the milking is over.”
