ABUSE OF Cows.--At the Barre meet
ing of the, State Massachusetts, board Of
agriculture. an old and experienced dairy
man said: s'sd laysti hfsli's@ r Il
have taken good deal Of pains to test
the value of my milk that l have worked
into cheese. / have graduated glasses for
the purpose and | have found cow,
whose uniform percentage Of cream was
eighteen per cent. reduced to six in twelve
hours, not from any change of food, but
from a little excitement. You, gentle
men, who make butter, be careful to adopt
my advice, and always treat your COW
kindly and gently; and never get her ex-
cited, because every ounce of excitement
will take from her milk one per cent. Of
cream. have known COW abused by a
brutal mixer, and the per cent. of her
cream went down one-half. 1t is aston
ishing what an effect excitement has on the
percentage of cream in the milk that q
cow produces. Whoever abuses his COW
knocks out Of his milk large percentage
of that cream.

DUDLEY w. ADAMS, Master of the
National Grange, thinks that it would be
impossible for the Oranges to become q
political party, as the questions Of free
trade and protection would divide them at
once, Nothing could be more unwise than
the formation Of political party, seeking
to unite one class in opposition to each
other.
The Changers, or Patrons Of Husbandry,
have adopted as rule of their order never
to go to law, and to have all disputes set
tied by arbitration. The case comes on
without delay, and, each man telling his
story, jury Of picked neighbors and
mutual friends decide what is right.
