Jersey milk, in comparison with the milk
from other breeds. is much richer in fats,
and consequently less of it is required to
produce a pound of butter. The milk is spe-
cially adapted for conversion into butter,
inasmuch as the cream separates more read
lily and thoroughly, the butter globules are
larger, churning is easier, and at every step
indications prevail that Jersey milk is spe-
cially designed for making into butter.
The cow herself has been long bred and
fed with this object in view. Her stature
is not large, and nature has so directed the
order of her digestive and assimilating
machinery that the food she consumes
takes a direct and unerring course
into the manufacture of rich milk,
and not to flesh upon her back. For
these and other similar reasons the Jersey
is the most profitable cow for the butter
makers herd. A sharp watch on. the ex-
pense account, and a comparison between
the yield and net cost thereof of the big
mixer and the little Jersey standing by her
side, will astonish the dairyman in most in
stances, and demonstrate to him the fact
that best results from his business depend
very largely upon the breed OF cattle he
employs in conducting it. :,
There are good and inferior cows In all
breeds; bat this does not preclude the posi-
bility of any breeder of dairy stock attain
ing the highest success with almost certain
reSults-by employing Judgment and care
in selecting and mating his breeding ami.
"A . II "a bHto
of breeding will produce a class OF
animals that can be depended upon
to transmit their good qualities without a
failure, and a breed so built up will return
to the owner ample for all his
outlay of time and mOney-this will he in
the form of increased product, and a reason
able guarantee that the finer qualities for
which he has labOred will be inherited by
all the offspring. and better prices will
readily be obtained for such animals as he
may desire to sell. When that time shall
come the butter ~dairyman's a will be
made less difficult even than now. because
then a fair assurance will be given him
that all Jersey cows will be good and
profitable cows. These popular features
make any breed of animals valuable in the
eyes of practical men-and promote largely
the adoption of their use for special pur
poses. For profitable butter making it il
established beyond controversy that the
jersey leads far away all other breeds, and
the wise butter-maker will, therefore
choose her for this business.

Washing Wool.
New England Farmer.

&NC" hSton - hAt
The question of washing wool on the
backs of the sheep or not washing. and the
enormous discount dealers require on I'M
washed ~tieeces, are receiving some atten-
ton. A year ago these matters were ex-
h%austively discussed in the London Agri-
cultural Gazette by the best English tai
ent. The practice of washing was freely
condemned, and the main reason for its
continuance is that the American market
demands washed wool. 1t was shown that
the claim of grease in unwashed wool IN
juring it in texture or color is erroneous.
The real reason why Americans prefer for
eign wools washed is to avoid paying tariff
duties on the dirt the fleeces contain. As
to the discount Of o to 80 1-3 per cent. deal
ers require on unwashed wool, the writer
had several fieeces of grade merino washed
after shearing. and washed as well as or
dinarily on the sleeps back. and they
shrank less than 10 per cent. Were a dis
count of 10 per cent made the rule it ought
TO be satisfactory all round. Some of the
English wool-growers in washing their
sheep have ceased TO elbow the dirt out.o
but instead swim the animals across a
rapid stream two or three times" only suf-
ficient TO take out the loose dirt, q GUS
tom which. their Yankee cousins are rap
idly adopting.

A Continued Quiet Market-Groceries Strong,
with an Advance in Coffees.

with an Advance in Coffees.
INDIANAPOLIS, July Is.
The local markets continue quiet, almost
to dullness. In dry goods. groceries, prod
uce, and, in fact, all lines of trade, there
is a very quiet condition of affairs, though
not greater, perhaps, than may be reason
ably expected at this season, when farmers
are too busy to do much trading, and the
merchants who supply them are holding
back for an increase in the retail trade.
The grocery market carries o firm tone, and
cofiees have advanced l2c for all grades
green and roasted-and are very strong
at the increased figures. Sugars are
steady. In the produce market there is
nothing new. except that hens are in i'm
proved demand and lac higher. Young
chickens are so plentiful that there
is an oversupply. and prices are
unchanged. Owing to the hot weather
the loss o n eggs is reported heavy, and
loo for candled is the best that can be Sc
cured. The supply of butter is not large,
and the stock is pretty we'll cleaned up.
The quality is generally inferior. owing to
the fact that the farmers, who are the
chief source of supply, are kept so busy
with other work Just now that the churn-
ines are apt to be too far apart, and the
product kept too long from market. In

The Ups and Downs Of the Market with the

Range I'm Prices of Leading Articles.
CHICAGO, July 16.-There was o fair
trade in wheat to-day, and the market
ruled stronger and prices higher, due large
ly to speculative influences, though tho
disappointment in the volume of receipts
was one of the principal factors on the mar
ket- The arrivals to-day at the primary re-
ceiving markets were smaller than had
been expected. and estimates for tomorrow
were smaller at st. Louis, and also here.
There was q good demand for all the ar
rivals. both or shipping and speculative
account. the bulk of the No. 2 being taken
to fill contracts. The market here opened
about l2c higher, advanced with some
fluctuations os6 SIC more, eased of 3sc,
and closed 4Q1chigher than yesterday, ex-
cept July. which closed 24c higher. Corn
ruled quiet the greater part of the session.
though at times a fair degree OF activity
was manifested. The feeling developed

was attributed largely to the
good shipping demand, stronger
cables and firmer feeling in wheat. The

than yesterday. In oats a light business
t~ranspired. but a firmer feeling developed
and prices averaged higher. Fair buying
orders were received for May, and prices
for this delivery advanced ssc. but all the
appreciation was not maintained until the
close. The market for pork attracted con-
siderable attention early in the day. Open
ing sales were made at DC decline. but an
advance of 10c quickly followed. Later q
quiet feeling prevailed. and prices receded

question of law, as to what constitutes a
false pretense under the meaning of the
criminal statute. 1t is we'll established
point that false pretense must relate to
some facts which have already taken place
or which are taking place at the time,
and that promise to perform something
at some future time, is not a false pre-
tense, even though there may be
no intention of keeping it. The defence
in this action therefore claim that moth
ing more was done by the defendant,
than to promise to do certain thing
which he did not do, and that he is not,
therefore, criminally liable.
The prosecution, however, claim that
the false pretense consisted IN the state
ment by the defendant that he possessed
this amount of crop without incum-
brance, whereas the property was mort
gagged at the time the statement was
made. The case is expected to occupy
all the afternoon.
