When it is remembered how great the in
teresu Of Maine farmers are in orcharding
and fruit culture, how much is to be learned
about the succe.sful prosecution of this great
business, and shat a need there is of expert
ment and the dissemination of results of ex-
periment,, all any way interested in the sub
ject will be glad to know that at last de-
partment of horticulture is to be established
at our State College. This department is
one the necessity of which we have long
urged; but it cannot be regarded as other
than unfortunate that the location of the Coll
lege is so unfayoTsble tor the successful
growing Of our best varieties of apples. as
the best results cannot well be expected to
follow the efforts put forth, on this account

Herefords next with e5. Shorthorns, Polled
Argus. Red PoIled and Gslloways together

In swine the standard of muscularity wss
given to the Berkshire .. 100; and in sheep
he placed the Southdown as to rank Of supe-
ror muscular development with the Devon
the swine-each being the strongest of their
race according to size. The scale seems to
be very fair one although breeders would
differ as to his ranking of some of the breeds
