A FAMILY COW.

best for
FAMILY COW.
Ny answer is: If you want milk for
your children, there is nothing like the
Ayrshire. | am often asked how much
milk good Ayrshire should give. This
depends very much on circumstances.
While our soil and climate, and especial
" that otNew England, fall far short
of the moist climate and more productive
soil of the west OF Scotland-the original
home OF the Ayrshire am happy to
be able to show you that even here, in
our own sterile New England, COWS OF
this breed have given quite satisfactory
results. will Instance few cases
only:
The improved COW Jean Armour il
1SG2 gave an average Of 10 lbs. 5 OF. Of
OF milk per day, for ia days, COM
mencing June LIST. The greatest yield
in one day vas SIS lbs., and the smallest
yield was 10 lbs. For the month OF
July she COVE an average Oi 81 lbs. 10
OF. per day. Her milk Tor three days ID
July Welded lbs. u. oil butter. The
innlmrted cow 'CUrslet' imported aud
owned BY the same gentleman (Mr. H..
II. Peters,. gave. from May 2nd TO
Sept. lst, an average of 46 lbs. per day
orin l22 days, sop lbs. This same COW
'COrslet,' afterwards gave her last
owner. f. D. Pearce OF Rhode Island.
2S quarts strained milk per day. The
COW Ayrshire Lass when III yrs. old
(in lS6l), calving April Isl, gave, Jun,
10th, "a lbs; Aug. LIST, Sc lbs; Aug.
3lst, So lbs; total for the month OF
August, 1902 lbs; and for the first l6
days IN Sept, same year, she gave S4S
lbs. The about statement of the yield
of'Ayrshire Lass was sworn TO by her
then owner, James BrOdie Of jefferson
Co., y. Y, before the n. Y. State
Agricultural Society.
The Ayrshire COW, Flora Temple
3D. has proven herself very remarka-
bic animal. Her milk yield for four
months, IN 1874, averaged 25f qts. +;
greatest yield, 3Os Qts.; least yield 20s
qts. She has not only proven herself a
remarkable cow by the quantity Of her
milk yield, bat by her capability Of
giving milk almost constantly, and un-
der such circumstances as would ex-
clude 900 cows out Of every 1000 from
giving milk At all. For instance, she
dropped her last calf in the spring Of
1875, and gave milk until near the
spring oflS76; she then went dry two
months cher owner supposiDg her to be
with calf. Not proving TO be with cali
she was milked again latter having gone
dry two months), and yielded, that
season, IA qts per day, and was again
dried in the sprIng OF 1877, and went
dry three months. Once more, not
proving to be with calf, she was MIXED
sgain in the summer of 1877, and is now
giving good, fair daily yield of milk.

IInIlesf Money.

The friends oi Honest Money have
pushed the can ,ign with energy and
grand success during the past week.
Their guns have been heard in every pat
OF the st tie. Every where the greenback-
ers are on the retreat. From ktteIy
Point to Quoddy and from h. New Hamp-
shire line TO the waters OF The At antlc
reports all agree that the greenhackers
are weakening, while the power aud CO.
thusiasm of the Honest Money party are
increasing as the days roll ty aud the
election draws near.
The greater part of the greenback vote
will come from The democratic party. In
several counties the greenbackers and
democrats have uEiied upon county tex
cts. In the Fourth Congressional district
they have united upon the candidate for
Congress, running but one ticket; while
in the First district they have separate
candidates, but both greenbackers, and
only keeping up the Al parance OF divi'
sion the more eiirctualy, as thy calcu-
late, to concentrate vUlos against the
Honest Money candidate.
The republican column stands finn
against the assaults aud llindishments oi
the parry Of fiat money" and Cummun
ism. There are no entauEllng alliances
anywhere between republicans and green
hackers. The r,pdblicanS have acc, It'd
the issue which the iLllationists have pre-
sented, and under The banner oi Honest
Money purpose to fight the campaign
through. They invite all democrat, who
think as they do upon this issue, to join
with them in doing battle against Ih1 enc
mics OF sound currency, aud that invita-
ton will not be UNDECIDED aud viii spHt
the ranks of the democracy in twain Ia
neatly every town and city throughout the
State. Those who have baraained aud
betrayed the democratic party TO the
greenbackers Will find that though thy
have traded and The price Is agreed upon,
they cannot deliver the goods. Honest
democrats feel outraged and indignant
and will never submit 10 the disgrace al
tempted to be inflicted upon them.
Let Honest Money republicans and
Honest Money democrats join hands cor
daily on the issue presented, and make "a
