In timely article encouraging sheep
husbandry the Farmers ReUielD says /:
The increase of the worlds wool crop
during the last decade is immense, and
yet it has not exceeded the requirements
of the race. The great variety of fabrics
made from wool, and the overwhelming
demand for them, leave very little room
to fear that wool growing will soon be
overdone. The English nation consumes
vast quantities of mutton annually, the
amount eaten, if my recollection is not
at fault, as shown by statistics, being
greater than that of beef consumed. Be
that as it may, mutton is held to be the
healthiest of all meats, and the British
people have long cultivated sheep hus-
bandry for the production of choice
mutton. Then, again, our own people
are consuming more mutton now than
they have ever used before, and as its
healthfulness, as compared with pork.
becomes more generally known, home
consumption of mutton will enlarge.
The milking qualities of COWS are the
arts of man. The COW in its natural
state gives as much milk as will keep a
months as much as will partially sustain
it j.; after that it takes care of itself. On
the other hand, the COW which art has
produced gives as much milk for -four
months in the year as will support fou
or five calves. and for five months more
as much as would support three, two,
and one. Thus we find that almost every
breed has its milking strains. The Dur
ham has its milking qualities just in
proportion as man has induced them.
The Hereford is also a noted beef
producing breed; but these are strains
which are deep mixers. But man has
not succeeded so well in converting butter
and milk producers into heavy beef
animals. The Ayrshire. the Jerseys, the
Guernseys, are not easily converted into
beef animals yet it may be said that
man changes the characteristics of ami
mails almost OF will.
THERE is always something new crop
ping up in the butter and cheese trade,
one of the latest innovations being the
introduction of Russian butter into
the English market. One of our we'll
known exporters, while staying in Lon
don recently, says the Produce Er-
change Bulletin, was surprised to find
Russian butter offered for sale in good
sized quantities in several wholesale pro
vision stores in that metropolis. Ths
party referred to was at first inclined to
be somewhat sceptieal about this butter
being the prodnct of the Russ, but he
was soon convinced of the fact in more
than one quarter. It was handsomely
got up in white oak tubs, and very much
resembled Canadian. 1T is stated that
butter and cheese factories have beer
started in quite numl,e. of the Russian

that vast Erlnire. The American dairy
man should not be outdone in quality of
product by the farmer of any other
nation.
