Grazing Farming.

The fruit man, as far as the frui
business is concerned, is necessarily
idle half of the year; the grain man
nearly as much of it, while the graz
Ter is busy from December around e
December again. The fruit man de.
ponds Oh a falling market, and must
sell when his fruit is ripe; the grain
man relies on a fluctuating one, and
has to compete with the worlds
market; while the grazier sells any
time between June one year and
June the next. He sells too on a
market where the price is rising, fol-
the durable reason that the demand
is increasing and the supply falling
off. The methods of the grain men
impoverish the land i'm spite OF the
best care and cultivation; that fruIl
man is fortunate who can hold his
lands up TO their original fertility
hut the cattle mems lands get rich in
proportion to the length of time
they have been used. No matter
how much the fruit man cares for
his orchards, no matter how much
the grain man improves and hedges
and bitches and builds, the price and
value of the grazing farms without
extra expenditure. keep pace with
ei'her or both.

A Lady's Opinion about Stoekbreed.
ing.

Lady Pigot, of Branches Park,
Newmarket, is one of the most noted
breeders of Shorthorn cattle in Eng
land. In the preface to a catalogue
Of her herd, recently published, she
makes some very common-sense re-
marks, and we quote an extract or
two to show what a lady can say rs
well as do i'm stock~breeding. She
says Il know that some breeders
have laughed at me making such n
point Of the milking properties of a
COW, but I am certain that we shall
Cvcntually have 10 consider this as
the next tep in which We must i'm
prove our cattle. That propensity
to milk well is traceable through a
whole family, no one can doubt who
has ever been at the trouble of no.
ticing, even in one limited herd,
what differences there are as to one
tribe being good for the pail, the
other just the reverse /; and when
we see farmers prefer the great,
coarse, half bred bull for their dairy
stock, rather than to give a triile
more for smaller, but purer bred
beast, can we wonder at the sources
of slow going mongrels that frequent
our fairs and markets. But to go a
step further-do farmers, as gener-
al rule, ask what sort of mixers the
dam, grand dam, ETC., were of the
bull they are about to buy? Seldom,
