On Breeding.

A correspondent of The New England
Farmer having asked the question in that
paper, ''why the blood of a pure breed
and of what we term native. seems TO blend
more tremendously than the blood of two
distinct breeds?" Mr.. C. l.. Philips of
the Massachusetts Agricultural Expert
ment Station sends the following answer -
at is law of heredlty that the more
purely an animal is bred the greater will
be its prepotency An animal that has
been bred with great care. and whose an
cestors for generations have been reared
with equal care has its dominent charac-
teristics will fixed. Cross this animal On
a native that of course has no well
fixed characteristics, and the prepotency
of the pure bred animal will cause its
main characteristics to be stamped on the
offspring with scarcely an exception.
Take thoroughbred animals of different
breeds and the dominent characteristics of
each are well fixed. Cross two of these
animals and you may get a valuable off
spring, partaklng more or less of the
characteristics of one or the other breed.
Continue the operation for generation or
two and the dominant characteristics of
both breeds seem to be lacking In the off
spring. There seems to be strife exist
ing and the result is that some less prom
inent and desirable features come to the
surface.
The tendency is to make dominant the
original characters that the breeds had in
common, while the distinguishing charac-
tiers of both become latent With the
cross of the thoroughbred on the "native"
the advantage will be in favor of the thor
oughbred for many generations, owing 10
the unixedness of the characteristics of
the "native' in contrast to the powerful
characteristics of the pure bred This
feature is shown IN both sexes of the thor
oughbred animals but perhaps with great
er prominence in the male, owing to the
increased care with which its sex is usual
ly bred"

What Has Made America Great.

Contrasting the condition of American
industrial affairs with any other nation on
the globe. the result is so eminently
favorable to this country that one natural
" asks why it is so. The reason for this
was stated bv Senator Sherman at the
opening of the Ohio canvass: The repub-
lican party has adopted and for more than
twenty years has acted upon the PROPOSE
ton to levy duties with a view, first, to
secure the largest amount of revenue from
articles of luxury, such as liquors. silk.
etc 4; second. to put the lowest duties or
none at all on tea. coffee, and the necessa-
ries of life. raw materials which cannot
be produced in this country, and which
enter into domestic manufactures, with a
view to encourage their use in me in
dustry and third, to have a higher and
carefully graded duty on articles which
can be readily manufactured in this coun-
try. These simple principles applied IN
our tariff laws have yielded Us great
revenue, sufficient to carry on the opera
tons of the government. to rapidly reduce
the public debt, and to place our national
credit upon its present unexampled oasis.
1t has also induced the establishment OF
manufacturing in nearly every branch OF
industry in all parts of the country where
the facilities tor such industries are to be
found. A few industries like linen and
tinplate, jute and hemp manufacture
need more encouragement. This policy
has trebled the aggregate OF our manu-
features in twenty wears. furnished to the
farmer market for the productions of
the farm, and, in many ways contributed
to the wealth and prosperity Of the coun
try. 1t has given US such diversity OF
production tt at we are practically an in
dependent nation, capable of raising or
producing everything needed tor human
life, from the food we consume to the
finest productions of the loom, the tools
and implements of trade, an infinite varie
ty of labor-saving machinery, and, indeed,
every article needed for the highest civil
izatlon. Besides this we are able to give
employment to millions of men and
women who, but for the protection of
these duties, would be compelled to enter
into hard and grinding competition with
the poorest-paid labor Of Europe and Asia.
The wages paid Tor labor in this country
are from 80 to 100 per cent. more than in
European countries. and thus our laborers
have the comforts of social lite, are able
to educate their children, to secure homes
and property, and become useful and
respected citizens. Chicago Journal of
Commerce.

At the meeting of the American Horti,
cultural Society held in Philadelphia last
month, paper was read by Mr.. j. H.
Hale. celebrated peach and strawberry
grower in Connecticut, on the growing of
the small fruits in New England, which
some good points. The follow
ing report of his remarks is copied from
the American Horticulturist.
in New England we have many billy
slopes and sharp corners to keep clean,
yet think we are producing and eating
more fruit than in any other section OF
our country. A big plantation with us
would be ten-acre field. 1t costs 1850
an acre to raise strawberries. In the $50
paid for fertilizing, pay S35 for ground
bone dust and Sl5 tor potash salts, which
regard as the best of manure Raspber-
ries. gooseberres. and currants cost us
S75 an acre to produce. Strawberries
are grown in valleys, while raspberries are
grown in small hedgerows three and one
half feet apart. Blackberries are not
planted to any extent for the market. yet
the owner of one acre of blackberries tells
me that the sale of berries paid for 500
bushels of corn last year. One hundred
acres would be a liberal estimate for all
the currants cultivated In New England
and grapes are grown
only in limited quantities, yet tons
upon tons of these fruits are brought in
from New York State every fall. In SELL
ing the small fruits, the American square
measures are used. fruits being sent out
in white, clean baskets. Within the last
few years number of US have used new
crate that will give us more space and
keep the fruits tresher and better than
when sold 10 the small rough crates, such
as are found in the West. We sell our
fruits from our own wagons to consumers
and retailers, thus securing better prices
than when sent by railways to
the large cities. Poor men often
buy six or seven quarts of berries
to the millionaire's two quarts, and
when we have no more saloons it will be
4 millennium for the small-fruit growers.
As to varieties, that question, like the
.ariff, is local issue, and the less said
about it, the better. Halt the strawber.
