THE DAIRY.
INCOMING COWS. Never keep a cow in stanchions while calving. Aside from the brutal barbarity of such an act, and the danger to the cow herself, it is quite liable to spread abortion among other cows in the same stable. Remove the cow to a roomy box-stall, or empty compartment, a few days in advance, so that she may become accustomed to it before the critical hour arrives ; and keep it well littered. Anything that worries or excites a cow induces milk fever
