MARKS OF A GOOD COW.

Maryland Farmer.
Those who keep but one or two
COWS naturally want them for goner,
al purposes, do not want mere but
ter COW, nor mere milk animal, but
one which combines both in az great
degree as can be found.> Such cows
are not plentiful, we admit,or at least
are not often for sale at moderate
price, so that when they are offered
it behooves woud-bo purchasers to
be able to tell them. We do not be-
lieve in very small cows, nor yet in
large, heavy animals; as neither, as a
rule, are capable Of filling the bill, the
former too often falling short in the
quantity, while the large ones are apt
to run too much to flesh, to make
themselves profitable dairy animals.
The medium sized one invariably pro
duco the best results,and heavy milk
er sad larger butter maker is sell
dom fat, as the majority OF the food
she consumes is converted into milk
anu DuuleT.
The head should be fine but bony,
with smaller horns, large mealy nose,
and shapely ears. The base of the
horns and the inside of the ears
should be of bright golden color.
We have never yet seen an animal
with horns and ears we'll colored(gold
en- yellow)which failed to make fac
quality of butter and highly colored
1t is an unmistakable sign. The body
should be of good size, land the width
and depth rapidly increase as it runs
to the rear or hind quarters. The
milk veins should be large and prom
inent, and the udder need not neces
sarily be large, so it is meaty; but is
small when MIXED out. The teat
should of good size and only have a
single hole in each We have seen
quite a number with teats having two
holes. The hair should be fine and
soft to the touch as velvet or kid. In
color it should be tinged deeply with
yellow, especially on the shoulders
and flank and along the back. Color
of the hair is rather q secondary mat
ter, though the best cows are gener-
ally yellow, fawn gray or white, with
dark marks edged with yellow; black
cows but seldom prove to be good
general purpose ones, though. of
course. there are exception frequen y
met with.

Ir would be well for our Lsgisla
ture to join with that of other States
in petitioning Congress for the i'm
mediate passage of laws looking to
the prevention Of pleuro-pneumonia
and other contagious diseases that
have appeared among the cattle of
the sea-board States. We have no
doubt but that every member of the
Mississippi delegation in Congress is
ready and willing to support such
Legislation, but affirmative action in
the premises on the part of our
Legislature will have the effect to
strengthen the good cause elsewhere
and encourage its friends.

THE State Superintendent of pub
lie works OF Now York has just made
a report in regard to the destruction
of timber by lumbermen in the
Adirondack forests of that State, in
which he says that "the cutting away
Of the timber has made the decrease
Of water supply painfully apparent. "
Similar reports to this one are
coming to the Legislatures of all of
the older States and receiving due
attention; now will it not be better
for Mississippi 10 adopt procaution-
airy measures while her great forests
are within control, than to wait until
their destruction forces her to adopt
hard and expensive measures for
their partial replacement?

TO KEEP SAUSAGE.

Everybody likes sausage, of course
but not everybody knows how to keep
them. Do not put them in skins; this
troublesome way has served its day
and generation; cleaning the skins is
too much work, aud this way of put
ting up is not fashionable at this
aesthetic period. If you wish to kee p
the sausage till summer, or even till
fall, do not sew it in sacks and smoke
it,either. Make it into cak es between
the hands, fry it just as you would
for present consumption, pack the
cakes closely in an earthern jar,and
pour in melted lard till it covers
them; keep in the cellar or some cool
place, and as dry as possible. Treat
ed in this way, sausages will keep
fresh and untainted for year, and
l do not know how much longer.
When wanted for the table, simply
heat it through in pan and it is
ready for use-EI.

The Senatorial Result in Ohio.

The Democrats of Ohio are being
very severely handled by their
brethren in other States, and particu-
larly by the "broad philanthropists'
of the Radical press, for having in
the election of United States Sena-
tor exhibited their preference for
PAYNE over Peudleton. Now it is
barely possible that those Ohio Demo
Gratis knew what they were about
when they cast their vote. in caucus,
and it is highly probably that Legis-
lators fresh from the people, and
composed of men whose experience
on the stump scarce four months ago
enabled them to sound the heart of
Ohio to its depths, may understand
and reflect the wishes and feelings of
their constituents. At all events they
have elected man that is conceded
by the whole country to be an able
man; who is pronounced by even his
enemies, pure man; who has proven
himself on this occasion to be the
strongest man in the State before the
Legislature, and on former occasions
to be the strongest man in his party
before the people. Then why this
wailing over the result? We can
we'll appreciate the disappointment
and modification of the Radical Office
holders,fo it says as plainly as though
written in letters of fire, "The De-
partments and the Custom Houses
must be swept clean in 1885 by the
successful Democracy, and the Offices
and honors must go to the victors."
That Interpretation of the Ohio Sena

and bitterness to the party now i'll
power that felt itself intrenched be-
hind the bogus "Civil Service Bill"
passed by the 47th Congress, but it
surely fails to arouse a single pang in
the breasts of those who have born
the brunt Of the fight for Democratic
ascendency for 10 these many years,
and who believe that the places of
honor and profit now held by the
Republicans should be parceled out
to the Democrats if they are victors
in the campaign of 1884.
Mr.. Payne, though in his seventy
fourth year, was the candidate of the
"young Democracy" of Ohio, and
they triumphed in this contest, and
it is not his fault if in the fight he
was reinforced by men like the Nc

who joined the column on account of
their unreasonable and unworthy |
hatred of that excellent gentleman

THE WORLDS EXPOSITION,
in New Orleans in 1894 md 1885. In my
conversation with members of both hous
es, and have talked with many, am of
the opinion that n very lively interest is
felt for the success Of that great enter
prise, aud that there is an earnest desire
that this State shall be fairly md fully
represented. There is some division of
opinion as to how much should be appro
printed on the part of this State, but |
think a majority of the mbers favor a
liberal amount. A desire has been freely
expressed, not only among the Legislators
but on the part of the State officials and
prominent citizens from all parts of the
State, to see and hear Maj f A. Burke,
director general of the Exposition, and to
that end an inv itation was forwarded to
him yesterday, largely signed, request
him to ad iress the citizens of this State,
ut this place, on the aims and scope of
the enterprise at as early day ms may
suit his convenience. As general prop.
osition all patriotic and progressive citi-

Mr. WarJe, the son of an English
