  Bookreporter.com - MILCH COW by Kate Margam
It is with profound shamefacedness that I admit to picking up Kate Margam's MILCH COW for the most embarrassingly superficial of reasons.
MILCH COW was rife with commentary; Margam had an agenda.
But while Margam's prose is generally quite deft, MILCH COW's fusion of the personal and the political doesn't quite strike that perfect balance.

 Practical Home Veterinarian - How To Make Your Own Stock Tonic
A cow at pasture depends entirely upon nature to supply and regulate her feed, and it is during this season of the year that she produces the greatest amount of milk.
During the winter months, while a cow is shut in the stable so much of the time, it is impossible for her to get the exercise which it is her nature to have and which she gets during the summer months, while going to and from and roaming in the pasture hunting her feed.
If a cow during the winter months can be made a profit producer, it can only be done by furnishing her with something to stimulate her digestive organs and keep them in a healthy condition, so that she may thoroughly digest and assimilate the feed that she eats.

The same discourse naturally prohibits hostility in any form against such holy objects such as the brahmins and the cows: na brahmanam parivadet, na gavam danda udyacchet--Nothing adverse is to be said against the brahmin, the staff must not be raised against the cow.

 Die kritische Seite zur Milch - Gesundheit - Milch, Akne und Neurodermitis
Cow's milk is usually the first food given to an infant, and cow's milk hypersensitivity is often the first symptom of an atopic condition.
Adverse reactions to cow's milk proteins are usually categorized as immunoglobulin (Ig)E-mediated or non-IgE-mediated cow's milk allergy and nonallergic hypersensitivity (intolerance); the symptoms do not allow differentiation of these entities.
Based on clinical data from the past few decades, it is clear that foods such as cow's milk and hen's eggs can directly provoke flares of atopic dermatitis particularly in sensitized infants, whereas inhaled allergens and pollen-related foods are of greater importance in older children, adolescents and adults.

The contagious pathogens are spread by cow handlers/milkers, from contact with a milking machine used on an infected cow, or in dirty, wet, bedding in a poorly-ventilated stall.
Since cows on factory farms are also forced to stand in their own manure, they come into contact with infected bacteria.
Cows with subclinical infection return to normal milk production, but continue to spread the bacteria in their milk.

¶7 While the testimony is not altogether satisfactory, and does not support all the allegations of the petition, it did warrant the jury in finding that the plaintiff bought the cow on trial, with the privileges of returning her if she failed to prove a good milch cow.
Proof was lacking that there was an express agreement that, upon the return of the cow, the defendant would repay the purchase money; but, in such a contingency, there would arise an implied promise to repay the same.
An express agreement for a rescission, or for the return of the property, on the part of the buyer carried with it a rescission on the part of the other contracting party; otherwise a result would follow, as here, where the seller would have both the property sold and the consideration.
