Among the many improvements in the country,
.that of rearing bfkis cattle deservei the attention
not only of the agriculturist, but of the cOuntry
in general. The first thing to be studied is a fine
breed, which are. always nice feeders ; the sccond
is the easiest method of rearing or 'suckling.—
From experience it is now perfectly understood by
some breeders, that calves -suckled upon churned
milk, thrive equally well, by giving about one
third more,. by which all the butter is saved for
the market, and there 'has never been an instance
of the calves brought up in this way, either
taking the diseases of livetcvoolt or morti6ca,
