HOlstein Cattle.

As this breed of cattle becomes more
known, it advances along the line of pop
ularity. To-day it is the most formid-
able competitor which the Jersey has, and
as matter of record of butter-making, a
representative of this race, the late Mer-
cedes," stands on the topmost round of
the dairy ladder, having in thirty days
produced ninety-nine pounds six and one
half ounces of butter. "Mink," in her
four-year-old form, gave 16,62S4 pounds of
milk in twelve months, and during that
period twenty-nine pounds and six ounces
of butter were made from ten-days'
yield. One day she recorded three pounds
and nine ounces of butter. Echo
ranks first of all COWS of any breed in
amount of milk given in year, the
figures being 23,775t pounds. EN-
press stands second, with 19,714t pounds.
"Echo's" daily average for two years
past, including the time she was dry, is
fifty-one pounds, and she has made seven
teen pounds of butter in week. "Vio-
let," who completed a years test last
March, yielded 18,6774 pounds of milk,
during which time sne made nineteen
pounds and two ounces of butter in seven
days. "Aaggie :" has years record of
1904 pounds and fifteen ounces, and
"Aaggie, 3D." 17746 pounds and two
ounces. "Aegis" scores 1928 pounds
aud ten ounces; "Lady. D'Vries," 49,
848 pounds and four ounces, with one
days yield of ninetyone pounds and
twelve ounces. Netherland Queen
made. twenty pounds of butter in week
and gave 1914 pounds and nine ounces
of milk in a year. "Netherland Prin-
cess" figures for a twelvemonth are
4,101 pounds and two ounces. There

members of this breed for month and a

LIoUoR-sELLING, drunkenness, gam

have become the rule at agricultural fairs
in New England. 1t is time to call halt.
This disgrace must no longer be permitted.
An agricultural society that cannot run
without the aid of the rent money paid by
these vile accomplishments had better shut
up shop. 1t misrepresents agriculture.

WITH a good corn season this year,
which is just the weather which sor-
ghum cane needs, the production of sugar
from sorghum will, as we think, be es-
tablished on pretty firm basis as one of
the permanent productive industries of the
country. The last two summers have
been especially bad for sorghum-growing,
but it is within this time that all real
efforts to produce sugar with regular
sugar-making outfit have been made in
this country, with the single exception of
the works at Rio Grande, New Jersey,
which have run three years. Last year,
besides these, there were four: two in
Illinois, at Champaign and Hoopstown,
and two in Kansas, at Sterling and
Hutchinson. This year Kansas will have
five regular sugar factories, with complete
sugar making outfit, while several syrup
factories in other parts of the country
will be changed to sugar factories.

Unluckily for the corn-felds, the spring
of 1884 has been an unfavorable one for
the crow to display his moral character to
the best advantage. This season he
wanted corn, and he has had it and it is
safe to say that no crow has lost anything
in reputation among crows for stealing
corn this spring. We are inclined to be.
lieve that public sentiment among them
goes farther than mere justification of
the theft, and that the crow that has
grown the latest on stolen corn will stand
the best chance of official preferment. In

SULPHATE OF ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of
ammonia has fallen in price in England
from $67 so to $42.50, owing partly to the
lower price of nitrate of soda, but to a
greater degree to new source of produc-
ton of ammonia. The new source is the
blast furnaces, where appliances have
been found fit for saving ammonia. One
iron firm, it appears, had been blowing
$4,000 worth of ammonia into the air
annually. Downes & Co.'s circular says
that, as result of the new process of OBJ.
tanning ammonia, the cost of fertilizers for
wheat and pastures in Britain will be re-
duced, and elsewhere as soon as furnaces
adopt the new appliances.

BUsHEL crates are one of the most con-
venient packages for shipping many
kinds of vegetables, as early potatoes,
cabbages, beets, early applessetc. They
are cheaply made, and, admitting air
freely on all the four sides, are much bet
ter for perishsble products than close
boxes or barrels. The end pieces should
be of inch board, eleven by twelve inches.
A board twelve inches wide cut in lengths
of eleven inches, furnishes the regular
size. The sides, top and bottom are of
common four.foot lath, cut in the middle.
Four or fve-penny nails should be used in
mailing. Such crates are cheap, easy to
handle, pack closely in car and are of
a convenient size to sell to the retail trade
without breaking packages. Their inside
dimensions will be twenty-five by eleven
by twelve inches, containing two thousand
nine hundred and four inches, or a full,
heaping bushel.

The landlords of England have ruled
it for six hundred years. The corpora
tions of America mean to rule it in the
same way; and, unless some power more
radical than that of ordinary politics is
found, will rule it inevitably. / confess
that the only fear have in regard to re.
publican institutions is whether in our
days any adequate remedy will be found
for this incoming flood of the power of
incorporated wealth. No statesman, no
public man yet has dared to defy it..
Every man that has met it has been
crushed to powder; and the only hope of
any effectual grapple with it is by rousing
the actual masses, whose interests perma.
nently lie in an opposite direction, to

CoRRECrIoN.-In the article "Dupg
and Superphosphate," in the issue of
July I'd, where it reads Z" our advice to
mix in about one ton of fine ground phos-
phate rock or acid phosphate with every
ton of stable manure" it should read
"with every ten tons of stable manure "
one in ten being the proper proportion
for mixing phosphate with stable ma
nure. Will Brother Dole, who copied the
article in the Farmer and Nevs, kindly
call the attention of his readers to the
error Most of our own readers probably
knew it was mistake, as we had before
given the correct proportion.

The Mexican Treaty.

Washington, I3.-It is expected o con-
siderable portion of the present week
will be devoted by the Senate to the con-
sideration Of the Mexican reciprocity
treaty. A proposition has been made. in
executive session, that the discussion
take place with open doors. Many Sens.
tors expressed themselves in favor, but
precedents, with one exception. were
against such course, and it is uncer.
tain what decision will be reached. It
is believed the treaty will be ratified. but
serious objections were made during the
progress of The discussion. Some Sena.
tors apprehend war and prospective an.
nexshon as the result Of the complica-
tion, will surely.grow out of attempts by
Americans to es sblish themselves in
Mexico; others hold the opinion that il
the Pre.ident and Senate establish free
trade relations with one nation they may
with all, and thus exclude the pop llar
branch of Congress from any psrticipa-
ton or the exercise Of ole of the most
important functions of Government, that
of raising revenue. It will also be
argued that reciprocity treaties exist be-
tween Mexico and the powers, confer
ring upon them all the advantages
granted the most favored nation, and
ratification of the present treaty would
not therefore confer upon the United
tstes conspicuous advantages, since
other nations must be admitted to share
the benefits. By the provisions of the
treaty the rs!ifcat on must take place the
present week or the matter falls.
