Was photographed as he stood at ( years,
atthe Smithfeld Fat Cattle Show, near Lon.

over all breeds. He was bred by Mr. T.

Hall, Norfolk, England Mr.. Merryman
imported in 1870, Sir Richard I'd, No.
1884 He was bred by John Henry Ark
wright, Esq. of Hampton Court, Leomin-
ster. Some of his progeny, now young
COWS and heifers, are equal to any either
in this country or England.
Mr.. Merryman has also on his estate
140 head of Hampshiredown sheep. He
never sells his wethers under two years
old when they go into the butchers hands
they are then a credit to the breeder and
butcher. He keeps two brood mares be-
sides his ordinary farm horses, on his es.
tate and has on hand eight head of colts
from weanlings up to three year olds. His
large stock necessitates considerable pas
ture, but hereafter he will soil all his cat
tie two years old and upwards, common
cling with rye in April, and after harvest
will let them Craze.
Hayfelds produces about 1000 bushels
of wheat annually, sells from fifty to sixty
tons of hay, aud the sale of Herefords in
1877 amounted to $500. The corn crop
was light, that year, not exceeding 500
barrels. Mr.. Merryman believes in good
farming, and his methods may interest
our readers. Lime has been used extern

predecessor, was pioneer in the use of il

when the field is cultivated in corn. This
sod and muck is hauled to a convenient
place in the field to be seeded in grain
and timothy. There it is placed in LAYERS
with barnyard or stable manure: plaster of
Paris is strewn over the manure, and when
the heap is finished it is covered with a
heavy coat of wheat straw and there re-

which starts the grain and timothy and
generally assures good set of the latter.
Everything valuable is utilized in the
preparation OF compost, from dead fowls
dogs or cats, to horses or other beasts
which may happen to die on the farm.
Thirteen and half tons of fertilizers were
used on the farm last year. The
great secret of successful farming is thor
ough fertilizing and thorough culture.
And the farmer must make the most of
his manure. If he relies on purchasing it
he will expend too much of his income to
make his farming operations profitable.
In addition to compost there must be
turning in of green crops. In this way
farmer may always keep his fields produc.
tive and make his land pay. In no other
way will he be able to succeed better. or

Hay6elds is celebrated for its Black Hawk
Horses, its Hereford Cattle, its Hamp-
shiredown Sheep, and its Berkshire Hogs,
all of which are bred with great care.
Hereford cattle are esteemed the best
of all varieties by the London butchers for
the quality of their meat, which always
commands the highest prices. Breeders
say there is saving of twenty-five per
cent in feed, as compared with Shorthorns,
and dairymen concede that their milking
qualities are superior These are facts
attested by patient and careful experiment.
They are also desir able for rapid growth
and early maturity, no variety of cattle
SURPRISING them in these qualities.
Asas evidence ofthe superior dairy quail
ties of the Hay6elds herd, we submit the re-
suit of the yield of three cows on the even

Choosing q Good Cow.

Having had twenty-five years exper-
fence as breeder of Jersey and Attorney
cattle for dairy purposes | have become
convinced that the term "good COW"
means nothing more than that she is salts
factory to her owner. This standard is
not sufficiently definite for the work of the
breeder, but answers the purpose of ira
ders. All breeders must have a fixed
standard of merit, and rule by which it
can be tested. My short rule By which to
select s'good COW" | viii submit to your
readers.
She should be in full flow. This means
that her calf is at least ten days old. Her
condition win not change until conception
Weigh her upon the stock scales IF the
weight of milk yielded by her in thirty
days equals her weight, she is worthy Of
further trial, which should be made seven
months after conception. If her flow is
found to equal her weight in sixty days,
she is good cow for either family or dali
ry-man. A better COW win do this in
twenty days The best COW for milk will
do it in ten days, in full flow, and the
diminution of flow will not be more than
half up to birth of calf Now, by ''Gue-
mons escutcheon markings" to select tie
best mich cows, you will find strip of
short, fine hair Of an upward growth be-
ginning upon the front of the udder, ex-
tending back and upward, between the
thighs, towards the tail In this strip of
up-growing hair, above each hind teat,
there is patch of down-growing hair of
the same shape and size. Cows marked
in this manner, without other down-grow-
ing hair in or encroaching upon the "es-
cuteheon," are of . higher order of merit
as milk producers than any COW without
these marks above the back ,eats upon the
udder. This strip of up-growing hair is
called in Guenon's treatise en- the mich
COW "the escutcheon." He does not use
the term "milk mirror" in his work. The
books in which milk-mirror is used are
spurious, and are not more reliable than
the ''crumpled horns" which can be and
are produced by clamps, used extensively
for this purpose by traders in fancy cattle,
which are sold by good looks and pedigree,
without regard to other merit. And the
use of the 'milk-mirror" by the writers of
COW literature shows that they are, at least,
careless in their use of propositions; and
this impairs the estimate to be placed upon
their word by well posted readers
Dairy cattle of both sexes have the es-
cutcheon marks developed at the age of
twelve weeks; the milk-veins at about one
year. Breeders who wish to improve the
merit of their herds should only breed
cattle that have their marks well-defned,
wide, and extending well up-the higher
the better The upper termination of the
escutcheon, by its forms, fixes the classif-
cation of the cow. This standard is high,
and if worked up 10 will Danish many cows
from the dairy to the slaughter-pen, where
their owners should place them as soon as
discovered deficient in markings.-John
