Mr.. Harrison spoke OF the work in
Southwest Virginia, which had been so
greatly prospered and blessed; His
church at Glade Spring had decided that
they could henceforth support their own
pastor, and he would be no longer a
State missionary.
Many OF the delegates heard this
announcement with mingled feeling OF
pleasure and regret-pleasure that the
field had become seif.sustaining,
but regret that there Is TO be

THE RECEIPTS.

The report shows that the receipts
during the past year were Sl3, O3492,
which, with the balance in hand at the
beginning of the year, gave the board
for expenditure during the year Sl6,-
1880, which enabled the board to pay
all of its missionaries their salaries and
leave q small balance in tho treasury
with which to begin the new year.
The report closes with a vivid picture
of the present aud coming prosperity OF
Virginia, and the consequent need OF an
enlargement Of the work.
On a motion to adopt the report
earnest and effective speeches were made
bv Rev. DIR. George Cooper, Of Rich
mond: Rev. DR.. A. Broaddus, OF Caro-
line; Rev. ]. Il. Harrison, of Glade
Spring. Rev. George +. Williams, OF
Richmond; Rev. 5. H. Thompson. OF
South Boston Professor Q. l.. Cooke,
of Hollins Institate Rev. IL. Petty, OF
Accomac, and Rev. NJ. l.. Wood, OF
Newport News.
DR.. Broaddus made witty and elo-
quent speech, in which he pleaded for
this board, because it works in Virginia,
and because the grand secretary, II. X.
Ellyson. had run it without expense in
either collecting or disbursing its funds.

The Model Cow.

The characteristics of a good useful cow
were thus particularly set forth by Secre
tary Batchelder Of Concord, n. H., in his
recent address before the Franklin and
Hampden Harvest clubs at Easthampton ::
She should have fine, long head; be
broad between the eyes: the eyes should be
large and mid. the muzzle thin and the
inside covered with yellow skin; the fore
quarters light, the body wedge-shaped
increasing IN size to the rear; the legs
fiat, with the bones; the thigh thin, the
bones OF the rump set widely apart; the
back broad and straight, the ribs and bar
rel round and we'll sprung, the tail long
and fine: the udder large and full, extend
ing we'll behind, and the large milk veins
under the belly should be full and tortu-
Gus. A fine horn, a deep yellow skin,
and a general feminine elegance of form
are also good Indications. A well-shaped
escutcheon on the back of the thighs and
udder viii dc 70 harm, but experience
proves that some very excellent cows lack
this characteristic
He further remarked that forty pounds
of ensilage, with eight pounds of hay, or
twenty pounds of dried barley or oat fod-
der or hay, was about the requisite feed
for 900 pound COW da =. An excel
lent grain ration for the production of
milk in 900 pound COW would Re four
pounds of gluten or cOtton-seed meal, two
pounds of cOrumeal, and two pounds of
wheat or rye bran.
A COW that gives less than 5000 quarts
Of milk or makes less than $50 pounds of
butter in year is unproftable, and yet
the average production is far below this.
The average in New Hampshire is only
$50 pounds. At present prices it costs
full 20 cents day to keep COW in the
stable, as cows are us tally kept, so that
the cow that gives seven quarts Of milk
day that is sold for three cents quart is
of very little benefit to the owner. Ex-
perience proves that COW will yield
greater income by dropping her calf be-
tween September and November or in the
fall months, especially if she IS turned
out to grass in the spring. The green
feed stimulates anew the flow Of milk and
prolongs the milking season. Calves, he
said, conld be grown on skinned milk
with little bran or grain after they were
two weeks old, but dissenter remarked
that fiat ribbed animal betrayed its
scanty early feeding. A calf that is full
fed on warm new milk will have ro-
tundty of form that the other never pos
sesses.

LIES ONWARD CURRENT.

Forever onward in the march
From seastly hoof to hand
From savage to the seer and sage
From Saurian types to man:
From man to angel-limitless

Progression hath not halt nor bound
In Gods eternal years!
From darkest cloud the lightning flash,
From nothing-life Divine,
From gloom TO glory is the law,
The unvarying design.
world OF good invites our eyes,
And charms the willing mind
But he who only misery finds
Blasphemes the life Divine.
No teacherous gift was life to man,
With deadly hate concealed,
For Love Divine the method planned.
And all will be reveal led
When Ger the clouds that hover here
The risen soul surveys
The mansions of the eternal spheres
The land of endless days.

Mothers with young daughters can aid
social reform by rigid exclusion of wild

porous and happy. We see il in hun
dreds of the homes visited by us and our
representatives every month in the year

gratifying to the hard working and en-
terprisng journalist than to be able to
realize that his efforts have not been in

But when we go TO the stockyards and
see the great mass of lll-bred, ill-fed.
immature stuff produced by the careless
and indifferent farmers all over this
great country and ask ourselves WHY so
much is of this character and 80 little is

upon us, and that is that the producers
are not readers, nou- thinkers, and,
therefore, poor farmers both in brains,
in practice and in pocket. That is where
our plug horses and mules come
from; good farmers, reading meq. do
not produce the stuff that sells at the

That is where our ffty-pound sheep.

1t Is useless, to preach or attempt to teach

taught, too conceited to learn and spend
more money in month on trumpery
than would give them good reading for

As, however, II is good blood and
breeding that gives the good farmer the
best returns, we have once again to re-
mind our readers that just now is the
season when they can get first-c class

There is no Crop on the Farm that Pays

been urging farmers and stock men in
Texas TO pay more attention and give

profit in them has no doubt induced
many to engage in the business who
never gave IL a thought before: still there
is q shortage of hogs IN the state to-day,
aud the time is rapidly approaching
when the demRnd-the home demand for
them will be five times as great as 1t Is

farmer can raise that will give greater
returns than hogs, fat that has been
thoroughly and satisfactorily demon
