A TOWN BUILT ON DIAMONDS.

No town in Africa can boast of such rapid
growth as Kimberley, the seat of Govern
ment in Griqualand West, and the head
quarters of the South African diamond dig
gings. Eleven years ago, not hut stood
where now some 16, 600 people, with trade
of over So, 600, 600 year, form one of the
most thriving communities on the African
Continent 1t is now discovered that the
town is built upon land which promises to
be as productive of diamonds as the neigh
boring ''diggings," which have been the
source of it's wealth and the very origin of
its existence Kimberley is identical with
the sNew Rush. diamond settlement OF
1870: and the thousands who f1Ocked to the
locality to secure ''claim" in the valuable
reefs. which have been worked further and
further to the east of the site of the future
town. were in such hurry to seek their
fortune in the diggings that they forgot to
inquire whether the soil on which they
pitched their tents or erected their lots huts
was not equally diamondiferous AS the
wooden shantes have given place to more
substantial buildings, it has been found
that Kimberly itself has been built on dia-
mond field, and that the west end or resi-
dental part of the town is as full OF gems
as the actual diggings themselves at the
eastern or working end of the town. New
claims are being taken up in all directions'
and land which was beginning to acquire
considerable value as building sites has sud
denly assumed fresh Importance as possibly
containing some new ''Star of South Afri-
ca.'' How many houses will be pulled
down in the search for the diamonds upon
which they are built, it would be difficult
to say. But it will be interesting to watch
the future progress of town which owes
it's existence, and it's subsequent partial de-
struction and removal to the same cause
the abundance of diamonds in the midst OF
which it appears to have grown.

WHY COWS OFTEN KICK.

Every farmer and dairyman knows that
there is great difference in the disposition
of cows. Some are ready to kick with ap-
parently no provocation, while others will
bear a great deal of i'll treatment without
showing scarcely any resentment. A kick
ing COW is certainly very disagreeable ami
NAL to have around, although it is said of
Ralph Waldo Emerson that some of his
brightest thoughts have come to him while
being kicked half way across the stable. l
do not doubt that sparkling thoughts would
come to any one at such time, for know
that ones mind (and tongue, too, sometimes)
is quite active when cow puts her foot in
the pail or sends it spinning across the
stable, and it takes person of good dispo-
stion to endure it patiently. One must
certainly have good disposition to deal
with such a COW, OF she is made worse and
soon spoiled. 1t is surely the case that bad
treatment makes COWS vicious.
Ifa COW has kind treatment from the
time she is calf up to maturity, she will
hardly ever be inclined to show any temper,
and if she does happen to kick, it may be
taken for granted that she has very good
reason for so doing. On no condition wlrat-
ever should she be kicked or pounded, but
the cause should be found and measures
taken to remedy it. If cows teats are
sore she cannot be blamed for kicking.
Hired men often make cows kickers, and
when hired man is caught treating cow
cruelty he should be rebuked and warned to
be more careful in the future. Heifers most
certainly must receive kind treatment when
teaching them to be MIXED, and for this
reason they should not be entrusted to the
hired man, but the owner himself should
milk and care for them.-Country Gentle
