CURED because the butcher win not pay for really good

cured because the butcher viii not pay Tor really S0Oa
beef.
Per contra. The calves are sold at " 70 apiece
Visitor.-At what agef
Prot. W.-Six days.
V;s;tor.-Six days! Now understand why one
never sees an eaabe piece Of real here only the shiny
stuf which is called cafesk and which we strangers
ALWAYS avoid when possible. Six days oldl
Prof W.-It is not fit TO eat confess. But suppose
kent the calf six weeks there goes the milk OF i've
weeks which latter careful computation you see, is
worth 10 me thalers Ia dollar and bali week,
bringing the cost to me up 2 thaers and no butcher
yvopd nav more than one or thalers more for It,
But what say YOU to the people Of Oderbruch, on the
river Oder There the calf dropped to-day goes to the
butcher tomorrow
Yi,;,or.-Now az 10 the value Of the milk
Prof W-Taking the averages, Of course, we
reckon that our COWS give annually quantity equal to
6to quarts n day for 365 days. We milk them up to
within a month of dropping their calves-say eleven
months We milk them three times day, which is
here the universal custom where they kept in the
stalls.
Visitor.-Tbis strikes me as q very small yield in
deed Your Prussian quart differs but very little from
ours. Our gallon, wine measure, is 3.96S Prussian
quarts but our milk measure is for was little more.
cannot speak with confidence but it to that
good COW in America feeding in pasture, expected
to give at each miking-two a dayas much ne you
get from three, or 70 to IA quarts.
Prot. W-We sometimes turn our cows out for
week or two into stubble.feds and always find an n-
crease in quantity.
Visitor-Price of the milk
Pref. W.T. varies from grosehen to one and
half, sometimes even two groschen-On the average
Is TO Is pfennige per quart equal to cents.
Vistor-That makes of our money Is 70 20 cents per
day for 365 days-equa to from s66 TO $40 per annum
income from COW.
Now, as 10 fattened cattle.
Prof VA COW fatted as before described is ex-
pected to weigh some 10 or II cwt. AcOmmon ANIMAL
when sold by the weight after being slaughtered and
the head hide shns and entrais removed, brings Ia
to Is thalers per cwt abetter animal l6, and very
good one ls. Living, the usual price is % to 81 th
per cwt.
Visitor-The new Prussian cwt. equals lOl6 lbs
avoirdupois of our weight your tbser IS cents very
nearly, 50 that your prices come out thus
Ordinary beef, slaughtered. 10 Ollie

Among these cuttings from the n. Y. SEM-WLETLr
TRIBUNE, you will find page devoted to the reports
Of Markets and will be able to compare prices there
and here. They do not seem TO me TO vary greatly,
though you viii remark that in America quality makes
a much greater difference than here. With us, where
meats are cooked plain, and whore it point to get
the peculiar flavor of each animal and each part Of the
animal II is matter Of importance to have good meat
bat here, where meats are so cooked and so ssuced
that one hardly tell from another, it is not Of
so much importance A.w.T.

AcTIos or Hard WATER UPON LTAD.-It is, and
has long been currently received that where there 10
free access d amorpberic air pure sOA waters that
is, waters absolutely comparatively free from saline
Ingredients, readily corrode lead and become impreg-
mated sometimes TO poisonous degree, with some Of
the salts thereof that the rapdty and extent Of this
solvent or corrosive action pr0poronae 10 the pu-
r;y Of tie water or it's freedom from neutral sslts
that impure hard waters thai is, waters containing
considerable amount Of neutral sats do not o'ect or
become impregated with leadi that such waters are
prevented from acting cad by or il virtue Of their
salne constituents, which exert sort Of protective or
pieservative power in regard the lead also, that If
given water does not within shon period caufe
white coating freshly Furnished lead plates or rods
il may be regarded destitute Of any corrosive action
and Inny therefore be safely allowed 20 be kept in
leaden ciserns. snd transmitted through leaden pipes
All these generally received ideas, however are
mocl ed in the head by writer in Tie New Philo-
sopbicl Journal whose obseryaticns experiments, and
inquiries, have led him TO the following conclusions;
First that certain pure soft wateIs do not upon
lead; ard second that certain impure hard waters
in some cases containing abundance of the very salts
which are generally regarded Is most protective or pre-
servative, do sct upon lead.
