COLLIE AIDS IN MILKING

Cuts Out Milch Cows From Herd and Holds Off Calves While Milking Goes On. Gaffney, S. C.-—J. F. Jamison, who lives near Gaffney, has a collie dog which is a most remarkable animal. His master sends him to the pasture with instructions to bring up only the cows which are giving milk, and Nip will confine himself strictly to those instructions. Then Mr. Jamison will tell him to bring all the cows, and he will come driving them all to the barn. In addition to thiß, when milking is in progress Nip will seize the calf around the neck with his paws and hold it off while the cow is being milked. The above information was obtained not directly from Mr. Jamison, but from Sheriff Thomas, who is a truthful man, and anyone who doubts the statement will be liable to arrest as soon as he may put foot In Cherokee county.
