ALL MILK Is NOT ALIKE.

The Wisconsin Dairy Commissioner de-
clarcd that the sooner dairylncn pull out
Of the old rut into which they fell many
years ago, that rut being nothing more or
less than the Authorization that ''all milk
IS alike, pound for pound" the sooner
will the dairy business he put ON Il iirmcr

The weight of milk given by certain
COWS is daily being vaunicd, bu, the
mount of cheese or butter which the
milk produces is kept an unknown
quantity.

THE DAEDELIONS.

Oh! there's something 50 ccstat;c
In the springtime OF the yea,
When the sunbcains and the shower.
Make the dead leaves disappear;
When the bluebird and the robin
And the saucy little wren
Toll us with their chirp and chatter
That the worlds awake again
But there's something more inspiring
Than an instrumental tune,
Brighter than the crimson roses
In the lovely month of June.
You may differ. but tell you
That it makes my old heart wh;rl
Worse'n any sideiong Chances
From the blue eyes of girl;
And it makes me feel like yellin'
Same rs when flew my kite,
Pullin' on tho string and yankin'
Till it Travelled out of sight.
So it makes no bit of difference
What is i'll my heart, there's room,
For to love the dandlelions
When they just begin t. bloom
'oh! you needn't turn Your nose up
Passing proud and scornrul by)
AT this little star Of yellow
Cleaning in IN emerald sky:
los an angel of the grasses
with about IL million wings,
And guess he's Necessary
To complete our happy springs.
Then We know that natures rising
From "A cold and cherries tomb.
And I've always feel some better
When the dan1elions bloom.
Don't we know the good Lord love, us
When lie trims or path like this:
Don't we know these flower prophets
Tell Us OF brighter bliss?
Thinking so, our tears and mourning
Turn 10 dew ana melody,
And we tune each voice Tor singing
TO the heavenly harmony.
Glorious God! we'll meet and praise Th,
III the land without IA tomb,
And we'll wander by the river
Where the lant!clions bloom.

A WORD FOR DUcrs.

Ii Is now the season OF the year when
the value of good flock of ducks should
be impressed upon the farmer. Most
people think that ducks are fearful eaters
and that they cannot exist without water.
a farmer who has tried the experiment,
ut raising flock, and allowed il to de-
stroy al the water on the farm, is con
Vinccd that he has made great mistake,
and when fall comes kills all his duck,
and no amount of persuasion can induce
nm to have any moro ducks upon his
place. How different his views Oh the
subject would have been had he made II
good pen and kept his ducks as he does,
or should, keep his sheep and cattle, and
given them only water enough every day
to drink. Ducks do not need II pond, and
can be very prolitably raised without any
swimming place. A number of farmers
have told me that their farms did not
make expenses. / always ask do they
pay any attention to fowl, and in ninety
and nine cases out Of one hundred they
will say 'ENo."
No more profitable fowl can be raised
than ducks. Not only on account Of their
quick maturity, but from the large num-
Der Of eggs duck will lay and the i'm
mehsc ilocks that can be raised from a
very small breeding pen.
AS hens make better mothers than
ducks, the latter can be kept laying, and
frequently lay from $50 to 200 eggs in
one season. If farmer has boy or girl,
even ten years old, let him get few set
tinSS of duck eggs, set them under his
hens and promise the child onc-haf the
money received. Make board pen, with
a large dry goods box for II housc-a pen
ten feet square will be large enough for
thirty auckland you will not be thinking
how you will procure money enough to
buy hlm an Ovcrcoat or more and new
schoolbooks for next winter. Make "A
watcrtight box deep enough for them to
wade, but not swim in, and give them
fresh water twice a day, and they will
prove mine of profit instead OF nui-

THE GENERAL CONVENTION TO HOLD
REGULAR EVENING SESSIONS.
VARIOUS COMMITTEES PRESENT THEIR REPORTS

VARIOUS COMMITTEES PRESENT THEIR REPORTS
FOR CONSIDERATION.
The Episcopal General Convention yesterday
| decided TO adjourn sine die Thursday next
| at p. M. instead of Thursday noon, and TO hold
evening sessions until adjournment. The closing
| service of the convention will be held in st.
Georges Church on Thursday evening at o'clock.
The pastoral letter Of the bishops will be read
at that service
The Committee on the State OF the Church
presented its report 1t called attention to the
careless way in which the statistics of the church
are taken and recommended that hereafter the
number of persons confirmed be made the basis
of membership instead of the number of COM
municants, as at present.
The Committee on Christian Education com
mended the establishment of Church University
Board of Regents.
1t was voted to hold the next General Con-
vention in Baltimore
lively discussion arose over tho report Of
Conference Committee, which recommended the
insertion in the evening service of the versicles
taken from the English Prayer-Book, which were
rejected the other day. vote by dioceses and
orders was taken the resolution to adopt
these versicles, and they were adopted by a far
majority
1t was voted to postpone the consideration of
the Book of Offices compiled by the Liturgical
Revision Committee until the next General Con-
vention.
The House proceeded with the con-
sideration of the report of the Liturgcal Revision
Committee, getting along smoothly until a snag
was struck in the resolution shifting the place of
the prayer Of humble access in the communion
office. a number of deputies saw a doctrnal
significance in this proposed change, as it wou4d
appear TO strengthen the position Of those who
believe in and practise euchaIist.c ado. alton.
vote by dioceses and orders WAS taken, and it was
lost by a nOn-cOncurrence of orders, the clergy
voting for it, and laity, by a majority OF one vot-
ing against it. The vote bIodsht out ihe fact
that contrary TO the general impression, some
Catholics were opposed to the shifcing of the
prayer, although the change was supposed 10 be
in line with Their views. But in this as in ID
great many other questions considerable modi-
fcation Of the old party lines has made i,self
manifest in the convention.
The resolution 10 authorize a special COM
munion service to be used at weldi' IS wa
adopted by slim majority. similar resolution
10 authorize q special communion s'rv ce TO b,
used at the burial of The dead brought many
deputies 10 their feet who believed tina. such -
ervicc would lead TO masses for the dead. The
amendment was finally lost. The reject on Of this
amendment was without doubt setback for the
advanced Catholics, who were sOlidy in favor Of
it, although, of course, many others were in favor
of it also
