CRAWFO HD SVILLK RECORD.

Cows.--The management of cows, so as to keep them healthy, and ensure a constant supply of pure milk, is not generally understood in cities, and if understood is not practiced. Strolling through Orange, near Grand street, says the Editor of the New York Evening Star, our olfactory nerves were refreshed with the delightful odor of cows, something like new mown hay, which perfumed the air, and that too in a part of the city not remarkable for its cleanliness. On pushing open the door of a wooden stable or pen, we found thirty fine cows, each in a stall, and kept in the most wholesome manner. They were attended by grooms, like horses, curried and kept clean daily, fed with warm swill three times in twenty-four hours, besides meal and hay. The swill is emptied in a vat and pumped into their troughs, and the free use of water, coursing constantly through the stable, keeps the place sweet and clean. The consequence of this treatment is, that their hides are smooth and glossy, the animals lively, and their udders distended with milk,

which is served to city customers. We think this mode preferable to turning cows loose on the common, to pick up the stunted shrubbery, and nip the rank grass, or walk the streets, gathering the offals of the city. The breath of these cows is considered good for consumptive persons; and, although the stable has not an inviting exterior, yet the condition of the tenants is really admirable, and we should prefer milk from animals kept so carefully.
