The New York Dairv Farm

The exhibit of dairy products at the
fair opened In New York December 8
was very creditable one. THE obelisk
of cheese near the entrance" saws the
New York World, lis very IMPOSING
structure. 1t is forty feet high and ap7
peals to the eye with its bright colors,
and to the sense with delicious perfumes.
AT the base of the obelisk, forming a stv-
lobate, so to speak, are ten mammoth
cheese, each of them half ton in weight
Then there are bands of cheddar cheese.
each sixty pounds in weight, and as there
are l25 of them they make an emphatic
band of gray; above are pineapple
cheeses, each six pounds in weight, which
give brightness to the structure, while
on the top are 400 American cheeses like
great red apples. A selected pineapple
cheese is at the apex of the obelisk; the
weight is $4,000 pounds. There are
several other obelisls, the salt one having
a substantial look with its twenty tons Of
salt. A pyramid, also of salt, at the
right OF the centre makes heap of 100
! 600 pounds, or would if it were solid
which it is not. To-day it is expected
the cans of milk and curd will arrive so
as to permit the process of cheese making
to be shown. OF dairy machinery there
are churns enough to stock any farm in
the country, and as each one is announced
to produce butter in so per cent less time
than any other churn, hardheaded coun-
trymen were busy trying to find out in
how much less time than nothing butter
could be produced in any one Of them.
There is plenty of steam power in the
building, and to-day many machines will
be in operation. The interesting part
of the fair to many is the exhibition of
cattle. Yesterday there were exhibits of
Holsteins, Jerseys and Ayrshires to the
number of 100 head or more and some
OF them are valued at 2,00O.-Amer9ca,a

His firm-shut hand, the favorit play thing IN it,
Then tell me, mothers, vast not hard to lose
And miss him from my side
My little boy that died?
How many another boy, as dear and charming
His fnthers hope, his mOthers one delight.
Slips through strange sicknesscs, all fear dsarm-
Ana lives long, long life in parents sight.
Mine was 80 short prde!-
And then-my poor boy died.
I see him rocking On his wooden charger;
hear him pattcring through the house all day :;
1wntch his great blue eyes grow large and larger,
Listening to stories, whether grave or gay,
Told at the bright dreslde-
So dark now, since he died.
But rot often think ny boy is living,
As living as my other children arc.
When good night kisses all round am giving,
Ikecp one for him, though he 1s SO far.
