I., has a curious and valuable Alderney cow She is very largs and has a hollow on her baok which will hold over a'gal Ion of water, and the cow always stands in the rain until the hollow is tilled. It is then absorbed through pores and she giv.es that much addi tional milk, but,; oddly enough, this phenomenon does not take place if or dinary water is poured into he hoi low spot. Mr. Viff states that the process is even more strange if there happens to be a rairbow during the shower, as in chat cue the cream that rises on the milktakeson all the beau tiful colors of mother-of-pearl.
