Eae,t 70 Obtain n..trr tows.

A New York dairyman of large expert
ence says:
To obtain a good lot of COWS in the
shortest time, buy the best regardless of
cost. But unfortunately, with most
dairymen this cannot be done for want
of means, so we must look for other ways
to procure good COWS. One way will be
to raise heifers from the best cows in the
herd, got by thoroughbred males of dairy
breeds. Thus; although not the quick
est; will be by far the cheapest and best
way to accomplish the desired result.
A good COW often lacks much of being a
handsome one. But the size and shape
of her head and horns have much to do
towards making her a good COW. I have
never yet seen a good one that had large,
broad horns. The best COWS carry a
small, fine head, with good sized ears
and in a brOad-hipped COW we always
find the milk marrow well developed.
Anyone who owns a cow should lose no
time in finding out her qualifications,
and if she will not make, at the lowest cal
cUlatiOn, 200 pounds OF butter per year,
she should be speedily disposed Of In
large herd it will be more difficult to ac-
cOmplish this than where only a few are.
kept. But still it can be closely approx
mated II care Is taken. \ COW that gives
milk as blue as a milestone is poor
property for any but a city milkman.
Many farmers keep too many cows that
produce that kind of milk. A COW can
be kept until she IS four years old with
out loss, as her growth will pay the cost
of her keeping, and by that time the
amount of her production should be
ascertained beyond a doubt. I think
that with care in breeding, cows can be
raised that will yield, on an average,
three hundred pounds of butter year, if
well kept.
Fifty years ago very few diaries in
New York averaged one hundred pounds
of butter to the COW; now the best cows
do three times as well. In one district
the milk of 300 COWS is now received at
a single butter and cheese factory.
Probably greater changes will take place
in the next half century in New York
husbandry, as the Patrons of Husbandry
combine intelligence, activity and CO.
operation.

Who was Casahinnca ,

Owen Casabianca was a native of
Corsica, on which island he was born in
the year 1888. His father was Louis
Cssabianca, a distinguished French poll
tician and naval commander, and the
friend of Napoleon. He was captain at
this time of the Orient, one of the largest
vessels in the French navy, magnificent
ship Of-war, carrying 120 guns and 500
seamen. OF Casabianca's mother we
know little, save that she WAS a young
and beautiful Corsican lady, and de-
vOtedly attached t. her son. Owen was
her only child, a handsome, manly little
fellow, with her beauty in his flashing
eyes and dusky hair. She died while he
was yet quite young, and when the green
sod was placed over her grave, the boy
left the pleasant valley under the smiling
hills of Corsica to 90 with his father and
tread the hard deck of a war vessel
Mere child as he was, Casabianca soon
grew to love his fathers dangerous call
ing, and became a faSorite with all on
board. He was made mjdshipman, and
at the early age of ten years participated
with his father in the battle of the Nile.
The ship caught fire during the action.
Soon after, Captain Casabianca, the
father, was wounded by musket ball.
MOI YET ulsdDleuy ne was SbruCE IN the
head some minutes later by a splinter,
which laid him upon the deck insensibIe.
His gallant son, unconscious of the chief.
tain's doom, still held his post at the
battery, where he worked ike the hero
he was. He saw the flames raging
around him; he saw.the ships crew de-
serting him one by one, and the boy was
urged to fee. With courage and cool
ness beyond his years, he refused to
desert his post. Worthy son of Louis
Casabianca, ne fought on and never
abandoned the Orient till the whole of
the immense vessel was in flames. Then
seeking refuge on a floating mast. he left
the burning ship behind him. But ne
was too late. The final catastrophe came
like the judgment doom. With an ex-
plosion so tremendous that every shin
felt it to the bottom, the Orient blew up.

morning was picked up the dead, mangled

and poetry cannot make more

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
what Is High Farming.

An American farmer Ofnote, after visit
ing England and examining with the criti
cal eye of q practical and experienced
agriculturist the system pursued there,
says: 81 am thoroughly confirmed in my
old faith that the only good farmer of
our future is to be the high farmer
There is widely prevailing antipathy
among the common farmers OF our country
against not only the practice of high
farming, but against the use of the phrase
by agricultural writer's. This is all wrong,
and should be at once corrected. Through
50 ne misconceptiOn of the meaning of
the phrase and of its application,
they have come to believe 1t synonymous
with theoretical 'boOkfarming,' new
tangled notions boosted progress, follow
ed by disappointments and final failure.
This is all an error High farming simply
means thorough Gu tivation, iberalm manu-
ring, bOuntiful crops, good feed and pay
ing profits therefrOm. 1t is not strange
that misconceptions have arisen in the
minds of doubling farmers who have
been eyewitness to some of the spread
eagle experiments of enthusiastic farmers,
better supplied with money obtained in a
business they knew how to manage than
with practical experience on the farm.
Bountiful crops and paying profits, of
course, are what farmers who are depend
ing upon the farm for an income are
striving to obtain; and every year as 1T
| passes Is TecOnirming the opinion that
profits are small, and will grow beautifully
less where high farming Is not practiced.

Important Facts Concerning rsinderpest.

In compliance with special instructions
from the department of state, Henry J.
Winser, United States consul at Some
berg, Germany, has made report to the
department, under date Of June 5, 1877,
concerning the rinderpest in Germany.
The matter of the report is derived from
the records and high authorities
Among other interesting statements which
it contains are substantially the follow
ing: The poison of the rinderpest is
difficult to destroy, attaches readily to all
substances and may be communicated for
an indefinite period. Hides, dry or sailed
previous to shipment, or frozen and sailed
after shipment, if from infected animals,
or If themselves infected by contact,
carry the infection to foreign ports, and
can infect animals at such ports. The
German government strictly prohibits
traffic during seasons when the disease is
prevalent within or near its borders in
all articles liable to carry the disease
within infected districts.
The report says the poison will not
only propagate itself by means of neat
cattle, but will attach itself TO sheep,
goats, dogs, cats, fowls, pigeons, etc
Hay, straw, wood, leather, and even the
earth are media for its dispersion. 1t is
easily carried about by clothing, espe-
cially wooden garments. Upon all these
objects the poison adheres for a very long
time without losing its active principle"
Hence the rigid rules enforced by the
government, which compel the destruc
tion of hides with the bodies of infected
animals, regulate the intercourse OF the
people and the movements and use of
animals of infected places, and enforce
the complete isolation of diseased cattle
