LONGEVITY AN INHERITANCE.

law of inheritance. Practice every
reasonable means for preservation of
your days; and vet, as, an eminent
English physician has putt, IF you

ROTATION OF CROPS.

As desirable as rotation in Office
may be, it cannot be more so than a
judicious rotation of crops raised on
the farm. No matter how fertile
the soil, it is conceded that constant
cropping with one, two, or threekinds
of grain, will wear out the land. All
good farmers concede that proper
rotation of crops, including the grass
es, should be followed. Chemists in
form US that the nutriment of food
producing plants is taken from the
solution through the roots, and partly
from the air through the leaves, and
therefore that suitable food must be
provided, or a manifest deterioration
will result. The good farmer, while
he aims to produce the largest crops
at the least expense, will also be
careful to keep up the fertility Of the
soil by a judicious rotation Of crops,
supplemented by the application Of
manures to the land.-Rural World.

THE AYRSHIRE,

The Ayrshire COWS are justly cele-
brated throughout the country and
Great Britain for their excellent dai-
ry purposes. Though the most re-
cent in their origin, they are pretty
distinct from other Scotch and En-.
glish races. In color the pure Ayr
shires are generally red, and while,
spotted and mottled, not roam, like
many Short-horns, but often present.:
ing a bright contrast Of colors. The
head is small, fine and clean. The
face is long aud narrow at the mug
Gle. with a sprightly, yet ., generally
mild expression. The eye is small,
smart and lively. The horns are
short and slightly twisted upward.
set wide apart at the roots. The
neck is thin. The body is enlarging
from the fore to the hind, quarters.
The back is straight and narrow, but
broad across the loin. The ribs are
rather fiat. The hind quarters are
thin. The teats of the COW are of
medium size, and set wide apart.
The milk veins are always very prom
inent and generally we'll developed.
On the whole the Ayrshires are
good looking, but want some Of the
symmetry and aptitude to fatten
which characterize the Short-horn,
and which is supposed to have built
up this valuable breed on the basis of
the original stock Of the county of
Ayr, county extending along the
eastern shore of the Firth Of Clyde,
in the southwestern part Of Scotland,
and divided into three districts,
known as Carrick, Cunningham and
Kyle; the first famous as the lord
ship of Robert Bruce, the last for the
production of this, one of the most
remarkable dairy breeds of COWS in
the world; These cattle are natural
ly hardy and active, and capable of
enduring severe winters and of east
ly regaining condition with the re-
turn Of spring and good feed. They
have been known to produce over
ten gallons Of milk in day.
It is the opinion of good breeders
that a high-bred, >Short-horn bull
and large-sized Ayrshire COW will
produce q calf which will come to
maturity earlier and attain greater
weight and sell for more money than
pure-bred Ayrshire. This cross,
with feeding from the start, may be
sold fat at two or three years old,
improvement being especially seen
in the early maturity and the size.
In this cross with the Short-horn
the form becomes ordinarily more
symmetrical, while there is, perhaps,
little risk of lessening the milking
quality of the offspring, if sufficient
regard is paid to the selection of the
animals to breed from.
The Ayrshire unites to a greater
degree than other breeds, the suppos~
ed incompat ible qualities Of yielding
a great deal Of milk and beef.-Er-
change.

FEEDING VALUE OF VARIOUS
FOODS.

The Tribune, in reply oan inquiry,
gives some ideas about the proper
tionate value of corn, bran and roots,
which we copy that our readers may
make their own comments. The
estimate of corn and bran diff.
fers from our experience-making the
latter higher than We have found it:
Gas the quality of roots varies con-
siderably on account of the quality
Of the soil on which they may grow,
and as the value of given weight
or measure of corn varies somewhat
for the same reason, it is impossible
to speak with perfect exactness in re.
gard to comparative values. Wecan
give approximations only. The val
ues Of given weight of corn and
bran, when used as cattle food, are so
nearly equal that, for all practical
purposes, they may be considered
alike; and yet the bran costs one and
a half as much as the corn. We will
compare roots with the cheaper food.
If we take an average value of the
different kinds Of roots, mangel wur-
zels, rutabagas, turnips, carrots, pars-
nips, sugar and field beets, they will
have an average theoretical value by
weight equal to one-seventh of the
value of corn. On account of their
rapid and perfect digestion when fed
to cattle, and also on account of the
better use made of their nutritive prop
critics from beingintimately incorpora-
ted with large amount of water,
their practical value is one-third
greater than their theoretical value
as compared with dry foods. The
relative value: as roots and corn may
therefore be set down as 5 to H.
When go pounds of corn are worth
40 cents, roots will be worth 8 cents
for 60 pounds. When compared with
bran at 81 per hundred, they will be
worth one-half more, or IL cents per
bushel Of so pounds. 1t would not
be advisable to feed roots too e1clu-
sively. 1t is better to feed part roots
and part grain. Nor is it advisable
to feed one kind Of roots only. 1t is
better to have a variety, both on &C.
count of the health and condition OF
the stock, and for the better results
in milk which will be produced by a
variety over a single kind"
