Our reporter mailed his account Of the
meeting too late for last week, but there is
considerable in his report not included in
that given last week.
He says the meeting was not very com.
plete success, aud that there appeared to be
goody number of axes present which need
ed grinding,-and some of which got it.
Prof. Arnold gave some very good and
sensible advice in regard to large milk pans
aud the use of ice in butter making. He
had no doubt that cooling milk by the use
OF ice damaged the butter by fixing the ami
NAL odor in tho milk.
+. W. Stewart, Of the Lire Stock Jour.
nal, gave probably the best address that
was delivered, being thoroughly practical in
its scope, not being confined to few pet
things or theories. He gave the result Of
an experiment with COW which was very
inferior for milk. BY special feeding while
dry, giving her highly milk.produclng food,
he increased the size of her udder, and had
to milk her several days before she dropped
her calf; this nearly doubled the quantity
of her milk the next season, and from his ex.
perimeuts he was satisfied that ordinary
cows could be very much improved by care.
full and judicious feeding when dry. A dol
lars worth of grain judiciOusly fed to COW
when dry was of more value aud profit than
two dollars worth fed after she had come ill.,
He did not consider corn as good as other
grain for COWS, especially when dry, but con-
sidered mixed feed of the various kinds of
grain better than any one kind of grain.
Two quarts OF oats, or its equivalent, was
sufficient grain per day for COW when dry.
He fed three bushels of raw corn meal
day to ten steers, and to ten more bushel
and a half of cooked corn meal, giving them
all what hay they wanted, out Of the same
NOV. When butchered those that had had
the cooked feed were decidedly the best.
Prof. Wickson aud Mr.. Wetherel added
much to the usefulness and interest OF the
meeting.

The North Star rousos from the slumber
OF ages, and comes to the front with its store
OF wisdom to inform the public that the
bonds deposited as security in the national
banks are represented by the stock Of said
banks, and consequently the stock being tax.
ed, the bonds are taxed In the darkness of
ignorance in which we grope, we would like
to know if this stock represents both the
deposit and the circulation, as both are draw.
ing interest from the people, one from the
whole people and the other from borrowers
Of money.
We suppose the Star can see the sound
ness of its appeal for sympathy with tho
poor bondholder who has been obliged to
pay 10 per cent premium in buying his
bonds. But suppose he bought those bonds
at par when gold was worth 2.25, what
thenf 1t is natural to expect that when
there is security available to the capitalist
which Is exempt from taxation, aud which
bears interest in gold, there will be premi.
um paid for it whom it is exchanged
for deprecated rag currency which bears no
interest to the holder and which is not con-
vertible to gold at this or any other definite
time. On the strength of mistake of two
and three.teuths per cent in fifteen, combined
With the "slack-jaw" of a ffth.rAte county
court lawyer, the Star proceeds to crate
upon banks, No. Granite plows, aud hay.
seed, and writes somebody down as au ass.

mental training. like physical training, Is
best obtained in the practice of some useful
exercise. They will be taught every day
that labor with tho hands is honorable aud
not to be summed, but rather rejoiced
in; and then the old "curse, y" in the
sweat of thy brow shalt thou cat bread" will!
reveal ITSELF like every decree OF the Al
mighty, however stern, as blessing in dis
guise.
Let the sons and daughters Of our YER
mont farmers take advantage of the oppor-
tunities afforded them for obtaining collie
giate education specially adapted to the oc.
cupation Of the farmer, aud perhaps it may
not be many years before we shall see du-
plicated in Vermont the scene which Joseph
Harris thus pictures:
have Just returned from n visit to the
Michigan Agricultural College at Lansing.
1t is doing great work, not only in cducat-
ing students, but in making experiments
The professor Of agriculture has accomplish
ed wonders. The whole farm Is admirably
managed, and does great credit to the stu
dents, who perform nearly all the labor.
During the morning they attend to their VA
rious studies. A finer set of young men
never saw together. They arc nearly all
farmers sons. In the afternoon they put
on II working SUIT, and for three hours are
employed on the farm or in the garden or
tool-house. Some were hoeing corn; others
pulling out stumps with machine; others
were helping tho sheep-shearers, tying up
the wool, weighing the fleeces of the differ
cnt breeds and grades, and entering the
weight in book, with appropriate remarks
in regard to length of staple, iineness, &c.

Ell had Just started, and the foreman told us
that. before working hours, there had been
quite an animated discussion MS to whether
the clover WAS ripe enough to cut; the fresh
men, rs n rule, taking the ground that it was
too green, and the seniors that while there
might not be ms much bulk, the hay would
he sweeter and more nutritious than il al
lowed to stand longer Another question
discussed was whether IL was or was not
best to use tedding machine in making
clover hay. A horse was attached to II ted.
der, and though the clover was hardly wilted
ut all. and was very heavy, worked to per-
lection, and an opportunity was thus afford
ed of testing the matter. Now you need not
tell me that u young man will not learn u
great deal mt such an institution. Leaving
science entirely out of the question, what he
sees of good cultivation, good implements
and machines, improved breeds of cattle and
sheep will go far towards making him u
good farmer.

ut n very early day in the history Of our
country. Some extra cows, claimed ne ma.
tives. were made up by crosses of foreign
breeds.
Mr. Hubbard thought great improvement
could be made by crossing up our native
cows with foreign blood.
In reply to u question, Mr.. Fassett said nc
was too lazy to do much ut soiling, but he
thought he should do so to greater extent m
the future than he had in the past. Corn
fodder is good feed If planted in drills so
us to ear, and wilted before being fed. lie
also stated that some cows in some seasons
gave good milk and in another season very
poor.
The chairman stated that he would advise
the farmers Of Vermont TO make haste slow
y in making investments in fancy cattle ut
fancy prices. But he would urge upon dali
rymen to make better article of butter, us
he thought the market for fancy butter was
not limited.
Mr.. Fassctt thought the market for butter
put mp in fancy packages was limited, but
not the market for A No. butter put up in
ordinary packages. While few of the best
diaries were sold ut 35 cents tho greatest
number sold at 30 cents, and this difference
was generally attributed to partiality when
really the dealers can do better with the
higher priced butter.
