Kinston, April 7—Joy reigns at the Caswell Training School. The phonograph has been turned on again at the milking periods. In their stalls, B. Girl, Spot, Belle, Amy and Maybelle chewed their cuds to the tune of something sentimental while the milkers milked in cadence to the sweet strains. Lucy, Corinne, violet and C. Jewell appeared delighted, while Lora, Thelma, Whitie, Sis, May, Annie, Mattie, Minnie and Elsie wore looks of complete contempt.
The ”milk and music” tests have been in progress several weeks. Last week was an off week, when there was no music. The milk has been carefully weighed and at the end of the tests, several weeks from now, it will be shown that music soothing bovine nerves induced a greater flow of the lacteal fluid than just milking without music. This will be the case, or the theory entertained at the school will have been exploded.
