Below is shown what is perhaps the
largest pair of steers in the country.
Strange to say, too, they We're not reared
in the big, fat west, but in the rocky
little state of Vermont.
The illustration is copied from The
Rural New Yorker, and that paper says
of the oxen, called by their owner 1.-THE

oxen shown, and we would say after a
glance at them that they are we'll named

Points of Interest.

Save the waste products of the farm
and convert them into prime poultry.
The tops of turnips, beets and other
vegetables, small potatoes and onions,
waste cabbage and windfall apples may
all be fed to the fowls, and especially if
confined in yards will be relished by
them.-Poultry World.
There will be a great poultry and
pigeon show in New York from Feb.
4 to Feb. 10, 1891. Prizes are to be
awarded by comparison, which will en-
able the judges to finish quickly the
hestowal Of them.
There are in the United States 81, O0O,-
900 hogs-four legged ones. Of this
number Illinois, Missouri and Iowa have
each more than 5000, 900.
Don't put a hundred chickens on the
market at once; there are lone too
many. Sell a few every week at retail
prices, and you will be surprised to see
how much it will amount to. We have
had many a fat, clean pullet sell forfifry
cents. -Dakota Farmer.
The newest trust is the cattle syndi=
cate, formed for the purpose of con-
trolling the price of beef on the hoof
throughout the United States. The
headquarters of this new association
will be in Chicago. a~.
When a horse comes in hot and thirsty
it does not hurt him to lethim drink five
or six quarts Of water. In half an hour
more he may be allowed to drink his fill.
Kansas has this fall not enough cattle
to eat up her old corn.
Pullets and young cockerels produce
weak chickens. The eggs Of hens about
Q years old give the best chicks.
Farmers embarking in the sheep in
dustry in the coolest part of the north
west should fully test how sheep will
stand the winters there before investing
largely in wool and mutton.
Some Of the agricultural papers arc
recommending apples as good food for
milk cows. Yes, do let farmers buy
some for the cows this winter. They
are only So a barrel at wholesale in the.
city markets, little scrawny ones at that.

Points Of Interest,

Secretary Rusk proposes to give par
ticular attention to the poultry interests
OF the country. For the present they
will be placed in special charge of the
dairy division Of the department of agri-
culture.
The Judges at the poultry show in
New York city in February next will be
appointed with great care. The most
capable experts in each breed Of poultry
are brought to the exhibit and asked for
their judgment on each bird Of their
special breeds. The points will be noted
~ the expert in IL book. Then the best
specimens Of each breed will be selected
and all of them together carefully com-
pared, according to the points the expert
has set down in his book. This seems
the nearest to accuracy of any method
yet devised.
fsouthern farmers would pay more at
tention to poultry raising in winter they
would have an active market for their
products and good prices, while poultry
and eggs in the north would not rise to
a price almost out of reach of ordinary
people in cold weather. It costs more
to raise chickens in the north in winter
dtasasaSsa summer. and the price of eggs
sInto the empyrean accordingly.
s~se ought to have an abundant supply
of eggs the year around in this country
Of varied climate. Will not southern
agriculturists turn their attention more
generally to eggs and poultry

An Opinion on Ore Imports.

The Colorado lead ring his suffered a
partial defeat on account Of the opinion
recently given by the the board OF United
States General Appraisers relative 10 the
methods practiced by collectors in class-
fying ores imported from Mexico Since
Secretary Window issued his instructions
last wear TO collectors, the practice has
been 10 assess duty at the rate Of $50 pr
ton on al! ores containing lead values in
excess Of silver, computed according TO
instructions, which were: silver, 95 per
cent Of New York price Of bar silver, and
for lead one cent per pond less than
what pi, lead was worth in the New
York market.
BY this method, the value of $4,000
pounds OF oru imported by the ST. Louis
and Zacatecas Ore Co was ascertained
to be: Silver, t23o42 and lead $23l SO,
thus making il lead ore dutiable at $50
per ton--a duty of about FIVE cents a
pound on the lead contained in the crude
ore. On another invoice, the combined
silver and lead contents was valued at
s33l.-0 and the duty assessed at $3.50,
being nearly FIVE cents pound on the
lead contained and two and a half times
as mnch rs the duty is on lead in pigs
and bars.
The company protested against this
systematic robbery and report on this
protest WIS brought to the attention OF
the board who rendered an opinion there.
on. In giving its opinion the board says
that it is manifestly unjust to assume that
the valne at II Psso Of lead contained ia
ore is only one cent pound less than the
refined article Is worth III New York, and
that the invoices covered by protests on
this punt at this port should be reliaui-
dated on basis Of At least ~ cents per
pound for the lead contained in the ore.
and at other points on the basis OF lead
values in the orc at the time and placj of
