showing the success he has met in butter making
on q small scale, experimenting with nineteen
cows. He was much in favor of Hostein cattle
With - cows in 1884, Z of them being 2-year-
old heifers, he made 4 522 pounds Of butter an
average of 23S pounds apiece. The amount Of
grain fed was II tons bran ut 6 cents, 31O3;
tons shorts at Q cents, 436; 200 bushels oats at
q cents, $56; total. $l4. The hay was about
two tons of timothy and clover per COW, worth
about 46 per ton and the pasture about IS
apiecefor the season. Thus it cost $52l for 10
cows, or ~ per cow He made 1872 pounds
Of butter, which at 261 cents per pound, netted
him d, 1875 81, or about $63O7 per COW. Take
out the cost, and it leaves an average profit on
butter of 1854
COL McGlincy said that there sre wonderful
possibilities before Minnesota in the way of
dairy products, and he thought that Minnesota
cows were going to surprise the world. He
and Mr.. johnson favored coloring the butter.

CLOSING EXERCISES.

We spent a most enjoyable half.
hour at the primary department last
Thursday morning. watching Miss
Turner training "the young idea how
to shoot" Her system is thorough
and perfect and the little ones seem to
take a delight in their studies and
recitations, something we have never
seen under the old manner of teach
ing. Her little six and eight years
old boys and girls can now spell bet
ter than some teachers We have known,
and can read and write correctly and
beautifully as far as they have adj
vanced-ana they have advanced to
a wonderful degree of proficiency.
We consider her department the most
important in the college, and our peo-
pie should secure her permanent SER
vice there, even if they had to double
her salary. She is almost indispensa.
BILE.
Commencement exercises at the
college were postponed until to-day,
on account of the rain. Exercises
this morning by the first, second, third
and fourth grades, beginning at nine
O'clock. In the afternoon the exer,
cises will be given by the fifth grade
and high school, beginning at half,
past two. Certificates are to be
awarded to all who finish their grades
satisfactorily. All interested in educa-
ton are expected to be present.
The different classes in the college
have been undergoing examination
this week, and much anxiety is felt by
the pupils as to their standing.
Teachers and pupils have done a hard
weeks work. We will next week
publish the list of graduates, and pro.
motions. Time and space will not al
low it this week.

Of other varieties may appear occa>
sionally. They we're here in 1859,
1872 and 1885, and will appear again
in 1898 and 1911. (6tick a pin
there.) They generally appear about
the 10th of May, and remain about
six weeks. Persons should be very
careful about handling them, as the
digger wasp (stiss,ts grand,I,) follows
them, and can be seen clinging to
them occasionally, for the purpose Of
feeding on them, and persons have
been known to die in few hours
from the sting Of them.

they appeared as large as jay-bird.
Their head and bill resemble that of
an elephant. The red rrotuberan
ces, supposed to be their eyes, were
magni6ed till as large as cherry.
They are not their eyes. They were
exceedingly hard, and appeared like
fine woven silk, the checks plainly
visible. They have three eyes situ>
ated in middle of the head in triang-
ular form. They can be seen by close
observation, with the naked eye; but
with the microscope appear as large
as duck shot, and can be seen to
move.
Their bills seem to be double,
shaped, and by pressing hard ON the
head three spears, resembling needles,
and hard and sharp, are forced out.
The males do the singing and the
females the chirping. The females
have no singing apparatus. The noise
is produced by an air receptacle un-
der each wing, resembling the gills Of
fish.
From and under the posterior part
of the male a double cutting concern
