Yes all cows give milk (referring to "cows" as the mature female bovines that have given birth to at least one calf, not the colloquial term for "cow"), and yes they can only give milk if they have recently given birth. To confuse the reader even more, the answer to the first question would be "no" if one were to use the word "cow" in a colloquial sense, which would still make the answer "yes" to the second question since those cows that are capable of giving birth are the only ones that can give milk. The male cows (there are really no such things, but I'll keep going anyway) cannot give milk nor give birth, so they are obviously out of the picture as to being the ones giving milk or giving birth.

No because all cows, regardless of type, are capable of giving milk, so long as they have already given birth to a calf (very recently) and are lactating.

Does the brand farmhouse milk torture their cows?
NO. If they would torture their cows, they wouldn't get any milk from their cows. This is because cows that are under ANY kind of stress, pain or illness either give very little milk or DO NOT give milk at all. In order to have cows that will give milk, they have to be comfortable, relaxed and well-fed.
