THE HOLSTEIN CATTLE,

Are Holsteins the looming" breed of
cattle? A writer in the Mhecan evidently
believes so. We copy what he says of their
character:
In history we find evidence to show that
the Shorthorns owe much of their present
superiority to Holstein blood, and the Ayr
shires also, there is reason for believing,
were, in a similar manner, improved from
being a poor race until they have become a
good one: They are large and well built,
coming fully up to the Shorthorn in size.
Many of the cows weigh 1900 Tbs. and up
ward, and the bull Won Tromp, imported in
1861, weighed when six years old, 2,720 Tbs.
The color is black and white, the spots be-
ing large and very distinct. The Holsteins
are now found throughout Germany and
Holland, but in the greatest perfection in
Holstein. North Holland and the intcrmedi-
ate territory. AS the name implies, they
are found in Holstein. This is a province of
Germany situated in the northern part and
forming the isthmus between Denmark and
the mainland. 1t lies between the North
sea and the Baltic, and, like Holland, the
country is low and marshy, and the cattle
are exceedingly hardy and vigorous. Their
hardness makes them very valuable to us,
and more adapted to the climate Of the
northern States than cattle from warmer
climates. The Dutch are notably thrifty.

WOOL PACKING.

Henry Stewart, in his Shepherds Manual,
thus tells how this work should be done,
and then shows the advance in value that
arises from doing it well
The manner in which the tleeces are made
up has no little influence upon the price at
which the wool will sell. Wool buyers pre-
fer to have the fleece loose, light to handle,
and elastic and tied up so that it can be
easily opened if need be. The method of
packing in Ohio and Western Pennsylvania
is to lay the fleece upon a table, turn in the
head and tail, then the TANKS, and roll it up
i'll a neat roll, tying it with a string at each
end. Sometimes the fleece is tied with one
more string across the ends, but this is rare
~ necessary, excepting when the wool is
very short. A fleece thus tied is light, east
~ handled, shows the quality of the wool,
and can be felt all through. The effect of
the manner of putting mp the fleece is seen
in the following quotations taken from the
wool market report of Coates Bros, Phila-
aelphia. of July 1, 1875:

DAIRY DEpAR NJ MT.
CURING CHEESE.

In an address before the Vermont Dairy
mems ASSOCIATION, X. A. Willard gave the
following mmar of the leading points to
be observed in curing cheese:
/. That but little advance can be made i'll
the quality of our best fancy cheese, with
out especial care in curing.
2. That by proper attention in curing it,
it is possible to reach the highest excellence
in the cheese product. That by this means
immense losses now annually sustained may
be avoided, while consumption may be pro-
NOTED.
3. That the proper temperature for curing.
cheese, to get the best result in quality, has
been determined by experiment to be from
seventy to seyenty-tive degrees, Fahrenheit.
4. That the temperature above named
must be uniform, and that uneven tempera-
lures, by alternately checking and unduly
increasing fermentation, causes bitterness
and other Objectionable faint in cheese.
5. That moisture is an important element
in cheese; that it should be properly distrib-
uted through the solids, and so assimilated
as to form one homogeneous, mass, mellow
and plastic, giving the cheese the appear
ance of great richness.
6. That at least from thirty to t%hirty-three
per cent. of moisture should be retained in
curing cheese, that as we decrease the per-
centage of moisture from this point, the per-
centage of butter must be increased to OBJ
tain m%ellowness of texture; that the cheese
is not improved in taste by this substitution,
which is often a serious loss, and this loss
may always be estimated to be in proportion
| between the cost of water and fas.
Z. That by proper temperature and atten-
ton in retaining a rich proportion of moist
ure, the cheese is not only OF better flavor
and quality, but a saving in weight of from
three to four per cent. is made to the pro-
ducer over the ordinary methods of curing.
8. That by the use of refrigerator rooms
a cheese may be kept at any desirable point
of flavor, and thus by holding when the
markets are dull or the weather unsuitable
for shipping, the Intervening space of time
may be bridged over by the factories with
out detriment to the flavor or quality of the
cheese.
8. That with our present knowledge of
cheese making, q certain amount Of fat in
the milk is needed to make a good, palata-
bic cheese. Hence, excessive Swimming, or
a reduction of the fat in milk below one and
one-half per cent. to two per cent. is not to
be recommended where the skinned milk
is to be made into cheese, unless other fat be
substituted to supply the deficiency.

New York, Michigan, and Wisconsin

New York, Michigan, and Wisconsin
fleece, Xxx, 46@4sc
Illinois, Iowa, and Missouri fleece,
Xxx 45@47c
The difference of four to five cents per
pound is the value of the extra care in max
ing up the fleeces. The difference is even
greater than this, for New York, Michigan
and Wisconsin woods of better quality than
some Ohio woods, are bought at the regular
rates quoted, simply because the Ohio tleeces
come to market in better shape. This is no
unreasonable distinction, as will be seen
when the manner Of sorting wool is explain
ed further on.
Nothing should be tied up in the fleece,
be used. All tags and waste wool should
be scrupulously kept out of the fleece, as it
should not only look good, but should be
good. This observing of little things is one
of the ways in which wool growing is made
a profitable business. Tag locks and dirty
wool should be washed in a tub with soft
soap and cold water and sold by itsel. The
soft soap tends to give tub-washed wool a
mellow handling free from harshness.
When the grower ships his wool to a dis
tant market, he necessarily packs the fleeces
in bales. The bale should be solidly packed
both for economy in freight, which in light
bulky articles is charged according to bulk
and not by weight, and for the better condi-
ton OF the fleeces on their arrival at their
destination. A convenient method of bail
ing the fieeces is to hang the sack from a
trap door in the wool loft. The 1ieeces are
handed or thrown to the packer, who places
them in the sack, pressing them down close
with his bare feet, and, as he reaches the top,
with his knees; a handful of tags is put in
each corner of the sack and tied tightly to
make a handle by which the package can
be hauled about in it's transportation to mar.
ket. When filled, the bale should be plainly
marked with the exact weight, tare, and
net weight, upon one of its sides.
In FOLLOWING the pages of history we
find this remarkable fact, that the decline OF
a country from a high to a low order OF civ
i~lization is often, if not always, aceompa-
MED by a steady lowering Of the attention
which these creatures should receive in'order
that they may flourish and be profitable.
Spain and Portugal, during the two cen
turtles in which they figured as the most en-
terprising European countries, excelled in
the production and manufacture of wool.
Flanders for a time took precedence of En-
gland in the perfection of the arts and the
%enjoyments of life and the latter then sent
what little wool she raised to the former to
be manufactured. This being soon found
highly impolitic, large bounties We're offered
by England for the Importation Of artists
and machinery; and by a systematic and
thorough course of legislation, which look
ed to the utmost protection and increase OF
wool and woolens, she gradually carried
their production beyond anything the world
had ever before seen.
