a New DIsEAsE.-A new disease been
discovered among the COWS at Oroville.
About half Of them in and around that town
have gone blind or nearly so. Their eyes
become sore and inflamed, and in a short
time they cannot see. No n seems to
know what the matter is.

MINING CAPACITY.-fmong the various
breeds of cows the difference in the milking
capacity is very remarkable, and, to those
engaged in the business, is very important.
The relative quantity of milk yielded by the
several breeds, appears to be nearly in the
following proportions: For native COWS
2.ee0 lbs, a year; Jerseys, $500; Ayrshires,
4.3OO, and Holstein, 1900. Taking the
weight at 900 to $50 lbs, this would give ma
tive cows about five times their weight in
milk for Ayrshire sir and a-half times their
weight for Jerseys foul and a-half times,
and for Holstein five times.
