AT a series of public tests at the
Dominion Exhibition in London,
Ontario, test were made by Profess
sors Brown and Bane for Milk, But
ter and Cheese combined. "Eight
Holsteins, three Ayrshires, two
Short-horns and two Jerseys enter

led them all making 100 points an
Ayrshire was second, 1886; Short

shires % lbs, Short-horns 20 lbs,

John S. Linsley in a recent arti-
Gle on the relative richness in breeds
says "The various breeds of COWS
deserve to rank for richness in solids
and utility for the dairy whether as
butter, cheese, cream or milch COWS,
as follows Jersey, Guernsey, An
gler, Red Poll, Devon, Native, Swiss
Ayrshire, Short-horn, Holstein Erie
sian." The Jersey is always the
best, the Holstein always the poor
est.
The Holstein approaches nearest
to a hydrant, in the quality of her
productions, of any living creature.
The best thing for the Netherlanders
and the American importers of this
breed to do is to forthwith inaugu-
rate an improvement by introducing
to all their herds the best-bred Jer-
sey bulls, so that in six generations,
when their cattle shall have become
sixty-three sixty-fourths Jersey and
one sixty-fourth Holstein, they will
be possessed Of a herd of cattle that
will astonish the world for produc-
tiveness and rich quality.
An experiment with two Jerseys
and two Holstein COWS required for
ty-eight pounds of food for Holstein
and twenty-four for Jerseys to pro-
duce a pound of butter.
Mr.. Warren has given the number
of pounds OF milk required to make
a pound of butter from two COWS,
Albino I'd, 1859, and Aegis 1888.
We will not occupy space with
details, but will furnish any one
wishing a list of actual test, with
name of COW and authority for test
of Jersey cows that have made

The untimely death which annu-
ally carries off thousands of human
beings in the prime of youth, is in
deed terrible. The first approach of
consumption is insidious, and the
sufferer himself is the most uncon-
scious of its approach. One of the
most alarming symptoms OF this
dread disease is, in fact, the inerad-
icable hope, which turks in the heart
of the victim, preventing him from
taking timely steps to arrest the
malady. That it can be arrested in
its earlier stages is beyond question;
as there are hundreds of well-authen-
ticated cases where Dr.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery has effect
ed a complete cure.

Are Holstein Friesian COWS the

There can be no doubt that
Holstein Friesian COW will give
large quantity of milk, and where it
is sold by the pound regardless Of
quality, return considerable
amount of money. But as machines
for testing are rapidly introduced
into all creamcries, the time is not
far distant, when milk will not be
the only article known to commerce
that is bought by the quantity,

what purpose is the milk to be used?
