ted that the jersey will make two pounds
of butter week more than most of the

to be true, which my experience teaches
me it is, two pounds of butter week at
25 cents per pound, would be 30 cents q
week for, say the FIRST six months, and
one pound week for the next three
months at the same price would make
S16.25 in year. Allowing each to be
MIXED ten years, would make S162.50 in
favor of the Jersey for butter. At this
age put both up to fat and the Jersey
will dress 500 pounds and the large COW

The hog, studied from an artistic point

tween men and the higher animals there
can be no doubt. Wesay higher animals,
but do not interpret too literally. A
man can get higher than any quadruped
known to science, if properly educated
and furnished with the right brand of
liquor, but he can and does get lower
than any animal that breathes the breath
of life. In many respects man is just
like hog, only more SOLO ofense to
the hog. A hog is bull headed and
stubborn-so is man. He likes to
have his back scratched-so does q
man. He can get his two hundred
pounds of avoirdupois through q hole
that a bantam rooster couldn't find with
an opera glass-so can man, if he hap

The most crowded spot on earth is the
block in this city bound by Fourth street,
Fifth street, avenue A, and First avenue.
There are many equal spaces of ground
in the city and elsewhere holding worse

is solidly composed of six. story tenement
houses, each twenty-five foot frontage,
representing four families on each floor,
aud these families wondrously prolific in
children. The number of residents is
estimated at over 1000. Fix in your
mind some town with that population.
and then imagine it compressed into q

work at remunerative and not uncon-

city which has so large a class as Lon
don of men and women of high social

the right sort of work to the girls of the

experiments in the direction in question
has been made at Lambeth, where the
Doultons employ 300 women in their art

at three and four shillings week and
range upwards in wages till the skilled

five shillings, with exceptional cases
where a woman of rare talent earns as
high as five guineas a week. The ad-
