M. Guenon, of Paris, ciaims 10 have made an
important discovery in animal physiology, by which
any farmer may distinguish by plainly visible
terna signs, ia any herd Of COWS, each individual
in il, according TO the quantity Of milk which she
is capable Of yielding, from twenty-six quarts day
down TO next TO nothing. and all intermediate guam
titles" He also contends thai correct judgment
may be formed by these signs 10 the qualify Of the
milk which each COW IN herd will give, and as
to the time which will elupse after the animal be.
comes pregnant before she will cease to give milk.
The Treatise Of Mr. Guenon, in which these
things stated, has been translated recently into
our language and published by Judge Meigs of New
York. II appears from this work that the system
of NJ Guenon has been subject to the most rigorous
scrutiny under the observation Of committees APP
pointed by two different Agricultural Societies in
France Each Committee made full and detail
cd report Of the manner Of conducting the nyesti-
CATION, in the course Of which the tests were APP
piled to nearly two hundred animals The Com.
mttee of the Society Of Bordeaux say that latter
more than twenty years Of observation and research,
Mr. Guenon has succeeded at length in discovering
certain natural and positive signs, which constitute
the basis of his method method henceiorth proof
against all error"
We have alluded to this alleged discovery for two
purposes The first Of these is to acquant our rea-
ders with the fact that such discovery is said TO
have been made; and the other is to inform them
that very respectable practical farmer of Mass,
John Brooks, Esq, has communicated letter to
the farmers Club Of New York, informing that
body, that he has the fullest confidence in the state
ments Of the French writer. Mr. says in his let
ter that he has made personal examination gilmore
than one hundred cows adopting for his guide the
marks discovered by M. Guenon, and that he had
been mistaken only in FIVE cases. The plan he
adopted was TO visit the cowyards of some of the
princeton, Mass, and examine the marks Of the
animals, from which he enabled to estimate the
quantity of milk which each COW could yield
His decisions were invariably made before inquir-
ing Of the owners as TO the character of the animals
examined, and, as might be expected, excited no
little interest among his neighbors. The letter of
Mr. B. was transmitted 10 The Club through John
s. Skinner, Esq., formerly of this city : Bahimore
