AYRSHIRE COWS.

to use the language Of Mr.. Alton, in hi,
treatise on dairy cows: The head is small
rather long and narrow at the muzzle; the
eve small, hut lively the horns small, clear
cracked, and their roots at Il considerable
distance from each other neck long and
slender, tapering toward the head, with nc
loose skin helow shoulders thin, fore quar-
tiers light. hind quarters large, bacl; straish:
ana broad. carcass deep and wide over the
hips. with sound, feshy buttocks; tail long
aud small, udder capacious, broad and
square. stretching forward, and neither
iitshy, low hung nor Loose: the milk veins
large and prominent. teats short, all point
ing outward, and at a considerable distance
from each ether: skin loose, with halrsot
Iouatt, in speaking Of the Ayrshire COW,
saws; the quantity OF milk yielded by the
AYRSHIRE COW is, considering her size, very
great. Five gallons daily tor two or three
months after calving may be considered as
not more than an average quantity: three
gallons daily will he given for the rex.
three months, and one gallon and halt
during the succeeding four months. This
wonid amount to eight hundred and fifty
gallons for the entire season.
The above acc0Gnt, 40 doubt is that of
an extra animal. bat the same anthor thinks
six hundred gallons an estimate not to high
as an average for this breed OF cows. In
regard to their butter-m making qualities he
tells Is that three and a half gallons of this
milk win yield about pound and a half
of butter. This gives us yield of two
hundred and fiIty-scven pounds OF butter
per amman.
As to their fattening qualities they are
spoken of highly. Their aesh is said to be
Of very superior quality; certainly their
appearance goes to show that they would
take on flesh readily.
As the attention of many parts of the
West is now turning owarddairying, would
it not be well to procure male animals of
the pure AYRSHIRE stock to cross on our na-
tive stock My opinion is that the pro-

value b til for dairying aud fatteniug pur-

A La y SroEY-A few years ago, :
couple of Dutchmen. Won Vampt and Vo,
Bones. lived ON friendly terms on the hgl
hills of Limestone. At last they fell on
oyera deg. Won Fampt killed Won Bones
canine companion. Bones. choosing tt
assume the killing to have been intention.
al, sued Won Vampt for damages. They
were called in due time into conrt. when
the drfrndan. in the case was asked by the
Judge whether he killed the dog.
"Pc sure kilt him." said Vampt, "but
let Bones prove it,
This being qoitc satisfactory. the plain
tiff in the action was called on to answer a
few questions. and among others he was
asked by the Judge at what amount he es-
timatel the damages. He did not well
understand the question, and SO, to be a
little palmer, the judge inquired what he
thought the dog to he worth.
"pe sure replied Bones, "the dog Was
worth nothing. bat since he was so mean
as to kill him, he shall pay de full value of
him."
How maay suits have occupied the at
tention of courts how many contests have
engaged the tine of the public. and have
been wagei with viralence and ,nvectve,
having na more worthy difference than
that OF Won Vampt and Won Bones.

The Wife.

The following are few verses from VIII ttier
poem, "The Wiie," in the January Atlantic.
We drove before the farm house door,
The farmer called 10 Mary;
Bare-armcd, with Juno's step she came,
White-aproned, from her diary.
Her air, her smile, her motion told
OF womanly competene 8;
A music as of household song,
Was in her voice of sweetness;
An inborn grace that nothing lacked
OF culture or app lance,
The warmth of genial courtesy,
The calm of selEreliance.
Before her quecny womanhood
tow dared our landlord ntter
The pNltrv err and Of his need
To buy her fresh churned butter.
She led The way with household pride,
Her goudly store disclosing,
Full ten lerly the golden balls
With snow white hands Iii posing.

strength of constitution renders
him almost impervious to the at

His mind resoiute, firm, is equal !;
all his functions are in the highest

business; builds up a competence
on the foundation he has laid in
early manhood, and passes through
a period of life attended by many
qualifications. Having, gone a
year or two past sixty, be arrives

LocKJAw, OR TETANUs, has long
been one of the most formidable
symptoms ensuing upon certain
kinds of wounds, and it has some
times bafHed all the resources of
surgical and medical art. At last,
however, a remedy has been dis
covered that completely conquers
it.-Chloroform is the benefcent
agent, The method ofapplication
is by placing a cloth saturated
with the fluid along the entire
spinal column, and preventing
evaporation by covering the cloth
with oiled silk. This is done
whenever the patient feels the te-
tanie paroxysm approaching: It
averts all spasms and causes the
patient to sink into q sweet re-
freshing slumber, which may lead
to rapid convalescence. The in
halation of chleroform has hitherto
been tried, but with success orly
when complete anesthesia was pro-
duced.
