MILK COWS AND OTHER CATTLE,
Prices of Milk Cows-Extension Of Cattle
Growing-The Outlook.

From 1919 to 1884 the annual estimates
Of prices of milk COWS and other cattle
advanced yearly, and the decline has since
been uninterrupted, without exception for
either class OF stock. The fall in milk
COWS has been over ; per cent, and in
.o>.u and other cattle a decline Of 10 per
cont. i'm the last year.
THE cStcu-iou Of cattle growing, &c.
rorlur TO Stalisti.im Epdroa recent ne.
port. bias been normal, CORES pouoing very
uculy with increase OF population.
Though prices have been low and heavy
losses have occurred i'm some of the ranch
districts. there is an abiding faith in the
future of the business, grass being the
cheapest and most abundant source OF
beef, yielding perhaps Eine-tcnths of all
that is produced in the country. Corn
has n relatively small share in the beef
making in any country. The northwest
eru states are giving more and more prom
incnce to cattle the wheat interest rcla-
lively declining in the older settlements.
Milk cows are receiving rather more
attention than in recent years in the east
ern and middle states, and are increasing
everywhere with the advance of popua-
tion. There is some recupcration from
the depression felt in cheese making dis
tricts New York especially, where prices
Of their products ruled so low.
The belief is expressed, in the report
quoted from, that the stock interests of
the United States are in comparatively
prosperous condition, with prospect of
advance in prices, especially those of
| rnttle.

ing of two wires stretching from posts;
the lower wire three and half feet from

the vine should be cut Off just above the
