Queen vctorIa's Cows.

Not a gentleman farmer in England Is
fonder Of taking prizes at county fairs
than is Queen Victoria. OF late years
this has been her Msjesty's chief source
Of pleasure, and she treasures the medals
won by her butter and cheese and the
premiums carried of by her cattle above
the gorgeous tributes of her Eastern sub
iects OF her German royal relations.
When she is at Balmoral not day pass
es that she does not personally inspect
the h home farm, as il is called, and now
and then advise as to the butter and
cheese making, in which she is especial
ly int crested. Her dairies are almost
Dutch in their exquisite cleanliness, the
box stalls being tiled in blue and white
china, and the milking done by maids,
after the good old English custom.
II is said that the produce Of these
model farms is sold in London, and that
her thrifty Majesty turns many an hon
est penny lin this way. Well, ifshe
does, what natter Il adds TO the in
terest of farming, no doubt, to make it
profitable, and she to be congratulated
upon her success. At Windsor herd Of
American buffaloes is kept, and recently
an attempt was made to cross them with
some Scotch cattle. Here also is the fa-
nous poultry house filed with cocks and
hens that have taken prizes all over the
