1T WASN'T PEARS.

Last evening one of the many devo-
ted lovers with which our city abounds
was sitting on the steps of a School
street mansion with young damsel by
his side. The hour was nine. The
old folks had considerably gone to bed
She was gazing pensively into the
depths of the starry firmament; he

Every one knows what young men say
on such occasions. Suddenly the young
lady noticed a pause in his remarks,
and glancing at his face discovered it
pale and unreal in the moonlight "
at the same time his lower limbs drew
up spasmodlcally, shot out again like a
catapult, his arms joined in ction with
bis legs and few wildly about in all
directions, the fire flying briskly from
the stone steps and bis bootheels as he
plunged madly around. "Ohi George" !"
she cried, ''have the pears hurt youf"
They'd been eating pears The only
reply she got was more desperate kicks
and plunges, and in a moment more

FOOD AND WEIGHT OF COWS.

At the ST. Lawrence Dairymen's AS
sociatior, General Curtis made the
point to favor of the short horn COW
that she was such a perfect digester OF
food that she did not eat as much in
proportion to size and yield of milk, as
the Ayrshire or Jersey. Mr.. Rutber-
ford believed this opinion to be quite
a mistaken one, and that the Jersey
consumed less food, proportionately to
size and yield of milk, than the best
milking short horns. Professor Arm
old was inclined to think General Cur
tis's opinion correct. In corroboratiou
of the latter opinion, Mr.. E, w. Stew
art related two experiments Ga his own.
One was with two merino sheep, to-
gether weighing two hundred pounds,
fed in comparison with a Cotswold
sheep weighing little over two hun
dred pounds. These sheep were fed in
separate pens, for thirty days, upon
hay and corn. The two merinoes ate
five pounds of hay and two quarts of
corn per day, while the Cotswold ate
only four pounds of hay and three
pints of corn; and the Cotswold gained
a fraction of pound the most, while
eating 25 per cent. less. He also tried
a similar experiment with three small
common COWS weis hing eight hundred
pounds each, and two large COWS
weighing twelve hundred pounds each;
so that the weight of the lot vas equal.
The experiment was made in the win
ter, all the COWS being dry. They were
all fed on mixed clover and timothy cut
five eights of an inch long, with two
quarts of brand mixed with each bushel
of mixed hay. The feed was weighed
as given to each lot, and supplied al
ibitum. During thirty days the three
small COWS ate, on the average, seventy
pounds per day. AT the end of the ex
pertinent the three small COWS had |
gained sixty five pounds, and the two
large cows sixty two pounds. Here is
a difference in food in favor of the large |
animal of 16.6 per cent. The COWS
were all apparently in the same condi
tion at the beginning. 1t is the geu
eral opinion that animals eat in pro
portion 10 weight; but this will not
apply to cases where the difference in
weight isvery large. In the case of the |
two merino sheep that weighed the
same as one Cotswold there is the heat
of two systems to be kept instead of
one. The respiratory food is not in
proportion TO size of animal, as the
lungs of the two small sheep were,
combined, larger than the lungs of one
large sheep, and would take more foud
to keep up animal heat. The out side
surface of the bodies of the two small
animals having only the weight of one
large animal is much greater, and the
radiation of heat from this larger sur
face Will be proportionally greater, and
require so much additional food. This
appears TO be a rational explanation of
the facts of these two experiments, and
which have been observed, in a gener
al way, by many FEEDERS.

A BOYS COMPOSITION on BABIES.

There are four or five different kind
of babies. There is the big baby, th'
little baby, the white baby, and the
poodle dog, and there is the baby ele
phant.
Most of the babies was borne In {
boarding house, 'cept the baby elephant
think he was borne on a railroad train
cause he allus carries bis trunk with him
A white baby is pootier nor a elephant
baby, but he can't eat so much hay.
All the babies what | have ever seen
were born very Soung specially the gal
babies. and they can't none of them talk
the United States language.
My father had-I mean my mother
had-a baby once. 1t was not elephant
baby; it coined one day when there was
nobody at home; it was funny little
fellow.
asked my father was it a boy or a
girl, and he said he don't know whether
he was a father or mother.
The little baby has got two legs Just
like a monkey.
His name is Mariah.
One day pulled a feather out of our
old ROSTERS tail and / stuck it up the
baby's nose and it tickled so ne almost
died.
One day the Sheriff come in the house
TO collect bill for nine dollars for
crockery. My father says he can't pay
it. and the Sheriff he says "Ihen he take
something" and ne took look around
the room and he seed the little baby and
he wrap him up in a newspaper and he
