Cycling for Women.
Some people have questioned -,


cycling is healthy for women, but their
doubts are based on ignorance. In the
first place, the work is not so hard as it
looks. Given a good road and no head
wind a bicycle, after a certain point,
goes almost BY itself. Even hill climbing,
when you understand how to take your
hill, need not mean o~yerexertion. #
the read is muddy or sandy. then YOU
must exert yourself; but the labor IS
nothing compared to that of dancing all
night or of shopping all day. I have

healthier or stronger than I. As for the
pleasure cycling gives, il cannot be ex-

The Cattle Quarantine.

WHAT MAINE CATTLE KING SAYS OF IT.
Hon. l. c. Libby, Names ''cattle
king, in an interview on the Maine quar-
tine, says: 1.-The cattle commissioners
called on me and asked me what thought
of the shipments of Massachusetts cattle
into Maine.
Il told them that while | did not con-
slider the State in much danger from
disease on account of these shipments
the advantages of such cattle being ship
ped into Maine were slight, as the cows
in Massachusetts are somewhat worn out
and overfed when sold, and never regain
their full usefulness.
Il made no objection, nor did encour-
age it. | did suggest that it would be
well to go slow in the matter of interfer-
ing with the regular channels of trade in
live stock.
''The result of the quarantine on
Brighton market has lowered the price of
cows offered for sale from s. to $40 a
head.
'Formerly there was a big business in
the shipment of dry OF milked-out cows
from Massachusetts, into the State of New
Hampshire, where they We're held and
fed until they became new mich or recu-
perated.
less cost than in Massachusetts, but the
action Of the cattle commissioners of New
Hampshire in following the example of
those in Maine has checked the COW trade
in Brighton market.
'If Massachusetts, milkmen cannot send
away their present stock they cannot buy.
PERSONALLY, | have been shipping all
the way from 2000 to 1000 COWS annually.
| This number | believe to he aholIt one
half the entire shipment from the State.
The average price | paid for cows was
about $40 each.
Maine has sold about $3.50 600 worth of
such cattle each year. | have ordered all
my buyers to cease purchasing mich cows.
had hoped to purchase from $50, 900 to
800, 600 worth this year
''What do you think the final result of
the several New England States quaran-
timing Massachusetts cattle will be - was
asked.
II think Massachusetts will undertake
retaliation through the enactment of law
or laws tending to shut out Maine cattle.
"And what would be the result of this q
''Such law or laws, in my opinion, woulC
| be unconstitutional. and would be SO de
clared by the courts, and do not consider
that now, at time when no highly contagi
Gus disease prevails among cattle, the cat
tie commissioners of any State can quar-
antine healthy cattle. That would interfere
with the interstate commerce law and
block the channels of trade
