| tural Station, 1890, is devoted altogether
| to the dairy interest, but the figures
given as the results of their experiments
rather prove the truth of theories long
held by practical dairymcn than bring
| out any new facts or ideas. Tests o.
! three different breeds prove that the
smaller animal requires more food in
proportion to the live weight than the
| larger one. The average yearly cost of
food for two years, reckoning food al
average market values, was S1O.42. SO. "A
for Iolstcins; S61.17, S63.21 for Ayr
shircs; and S5s..6, $50 II for Jerseys:
and the IIolstcin yielded 5. 1863 pounds OF
milk, the Ayrshire G,Gl2 pounds and the
Jersey 5,460 pounds. tNone of these are
high records, but they may be cOusid-
cred an average of the three breeds I'M
der ordinary good care.) One thousand
pounds of milk cost with the HolStein
$50, Ayrshire S9,49, Jersey S113O.
Ito reduce pounds to quarts divide
by 49, One thousand pounds of
butter cost from the HolStcin So. O3.
Ayrshire S31.50, Jersey Sl9.12; thus fully
sustaining the reputation of the Jersey
as a butter breed, and of the HolStein as
mixers.
"
the value of the feed returned in manure,
which by the report of TIE MaSSachu-
settS Experiment Station, would be a bout
two-tifthS of the whole cost of the food.
The figures also show that the digcstible
food which it would cost 81 to make into
milk it would COS. S2.53 10 make into
beef.
These tables show one thing that many
ia NO
will not credit ii now. The skinned
milk of the Jersey COW contains more
solid matter than that Of either Of the
other two breeds tested. and less fat,
therefore it is more valuable as a food
ration. and the same IS true of butter
milk. They estimate the solids of the
skinned milk and buttermilk at two
cents pound, which gives an average
of Sl2.76 per COW, which material is
'wholly edible and wholly digesible. !"
This would be an important item to those
who are trying to decide whether to send
their milk to a factory or make it up at
home, and also might serve as an argu-
mont in favor OF taking home the
skinned milk and buttermilk from T. :
factories.
From other records kept they come to
the conclusion that there is very little
evidence that >tcaming, choppinS getting

is good economy" But they conccde
that saving is made when coarse or I'M
palatable food is 50 treated as to render
it more readily edible or dicestible-

In Memoriam-Prof. L. l.. Holladay.
FARMvILLE, Va, July 20. 1891.
Dear Sir,-You have no doubt learned,
with feelings of the keenest sorrow, OF the
death of Professor L. i. Holiday, for so
many years connected with Hampden-
Sidney College. As teacher he was a
man Of remarkable clearness and force,
and his many manly and Christian virtues
were such as to endear him deeply to the
| hearts OF all with whom he came in con-
| tact. His pupils loved him as father,
and now mourn him with sincere sorrow.
As n testimonial of this love II Is pro-
| posed that monument TO his memory be
erected at Hampden- Sidney by those who
have been under his instruction that
coming students may learn to reverence
| his name and gain new lessons of virtue
from his life. 70 this end the under
| signed alumni have undertaken TO raise
| the funds necessary for the purpose and
have adopted the following plan: To re-
quest each alumnuS of Professor Holla-
DAYS classes to contribute II to the monu-
ment fund. OF course this will not deter
| those who are able and feel so inclined
| from contributing more.
In case a sufficient amount is secured II
| is also proposed to have executed an oil
painting. llfe-size. Of Professor Holiday
| TO hang IN the Memorial Hall.
All contributions should be sent to Colo
mel j. =. Fitzgerald, treasurer, Farmvile
| Va, and it is earnestly desired that it be
done at once. Very truly yours,
