The question Is not so much of a sumner

about 10 per cent, of our farm productions
go to foreign markets. All of the balance

In 1860 the percentage of agricultural
products to total domestic exports was 7s6

JERSEY Cows GROWING LARGER
The average size of JERSEY cattle is in
creasing in this country. This is not due
to inter-mixture with other breeds, but
to better feeding and breeding later. In
the warm climate of the English Channel
where this breed originated young heif,
ers often drop their first calf before thew
are two years old. This has the effect of
increasing size, and making the animal
yield more milk in proportion. Perhaps
farther south in this country the early
breeding and small-size characteristics of
the Jersey may be maintained, but it is
difficult to do this in any of the Northern
States.
