Passover Week.

Hebrew Leader.
Once more tho revolving year brings around
the solemn fast OF Pesach and Its accompany
ing festival days. Once moro the grateful
hearts OF tho sons and daughters OF Israel turn
TO the God OF Israel who, forty centuries ago,
brought the twelve tribes out OF Egypt "witn
n mighty hand and an outstretched arm; for,
His mercy endureth forever" And once more
az with every recurring anniversary since that
time, the descendants OF the Millions He
saved from slavery and oppression under the
rites that were then instituted to keep thar
great doliverance In memory.
Tho first Passover was keptwlth bitter herbs,
with loins girdoa and with sandals upon the
feet-a repast taken In hope and fear and
haste, while Egypt was mourning the death Of
the 1rstborn In every family aud Israel was
looking up from the darkness OF It's long night
of slavery TO the dawn OF n day OF dellYerance
that had been promised from the time OF Abra,
ham. One cannot recall the circumstances OF
that first paschal supper without feeling the
heart go up In hymn of praise and thanks
giving to Him who so loved His people IN their
day OF gloom and has mover since forgotten to
bless them. Truly, as tho royal psalmist re-
peatedly says; "His mercy endureth forever" u.
out OF these memories must come thoughts
and resolves that Will mako our livos puror,
moro unsoltsh and more charitable TO ALTO
the stranger within our gates as we'll as 10
those who are OF tho household OF Israel, 1t Is
n time 10 ask whether the poor arc able 10 keep
their Pesach with quiot hearts under a roof
that is blessed by their own labOrs or by tho
overflow OF the abundance OF their neighbors.
only when the heart goes out TO Gods poor do
the Passover and 1T ourselves To receive tho
blessing that follows Its observance. Koeplng
the days of Pesach In this spirit, we shall ind
that tho prophecy OF Malachi is literally full
filled in our homes aud famllies-the prophecy
wherein God challenges His people 10 liberal
spirit and says: "PrOvo mo now herewith and
see II Will not open TO You tho Windows OF
Heaven 80 mat tho earth shall not be able TO

Net Profit the Test of Merit.

The almost uniform silence about
the food consumed By noted COWS in
milk aud butter tests, says the Cleve-
land Herald, and the occasional pub
LEGATION Of the daily ration, as in the
case of Princess End, when she con-
sumed thirtyfve quarts Of bran and
meal per day and all sorts of mix
max" IN the way Of clover, turnips,
etc, has caused the average dairyman
to turn away-we had almost said dis
gusted What the dairyman wants is
a breed Of cattle SO we'll bred that
they have Inherent milking qualities,
and disposed to a high average, ra-
Their than herd with here and there
a phenomenal record, that is clearly
one of FEED quite as much as breea.
What the farmer wants is uniform
ly bred cow that has vigor, stamina,
and makes not the most milk, ETC.,
from the most feed, but the most pro
duce from fair average quantity OF
food.
The idea that each COW in a dairy
must have an attendant who shall de-
vote his entire time to study up some
plan by which he can induce her to
eat another dish of some other kind OF
grain, or gorge down yet another
tempting batting of clover, or millet,
and milk her three or four times per
day, is out of the question. To hum
such COW is worthless, and comes
very near being so to the fancy breed
ers, for the "bone-yardn is thickly
strewn with the COWS of past famous
records, the victims of forced feeding.
Neither do we find out what the re-
cord of these COWS is when not fitted
for the test. She may be better than
ordinary, or not SO good, and while
she may De forced to large yield the
probabilities are that it IS quite as
much due to superior digestive powers
as TO native milking qualities.
The average Ohio dairy cow sub
sists upon grass during the greater
part of the summer, and during the
last half Of the summer an additional
ration of a couple of quarts Of grain
is given. There is no expectancy that
this general rule will be changed. Il
the improved COW cannot unassiSted
give more milk and butter from this
feeding than the average native COW
the native will stay. The farmer will
only be convinced of the great superb
GRITTY of Jerseys or Holstelns Dutch
FrieSians when side by side or
Western Reserve pastures, they dis
lance old Brock, Brin and Brindle. I
improvement comes along from
feeding, they will not invest, for the
average prices for milk and butter IL
