the Riverside Jersey Stock Farm, own
ed by Geo. G. Bean & Son, of which
something may be said later. On re-
turning, Mr.. Winslow took up the
topic, Sanitary Care of Cattle in it's
Relation to Bovine tuberculosis He
said that until within few years no
sure method of detecting the disease
had been discovered. A COW might
look well, and, to all outward appear
ance, be healthy animal, and yet
have the disease. The only sure meth
Cd of finding out the disease was by
the use Of the tuberculine test. He
showed the construction of and meth
Cd Of using the test. Every one should
guard against the disease as far as
possible for the safety of their family;
cited some cases where the disease
had been taken by children by using
the milk of affected COWS; said the
care of cattle had good deal to do
with the spread of the disease. Give
the COWS plenty of sunshine and good
water. A short discussion followed,
questions being asked and answered.
Wednesday evening, after singing
by quartet, Prof. Hill of Burlington
gave an illustrated lecture on ''The
Variation of Milk and Milk Testing"
Said that milk from the same COW
would vary sometimes in day from 1
to 3 per cent, but the same milk
would not vary as much in week, as
in day, nor in one month, as in
week; advocated the use Of the Bah
cock test; thought that one of the
tests should be in every neighborhood
where there were dozen or fifteen
dairies. In estimating the value of
coW,thr factors should be looked at:
LIST, the quantity of milk; I'd, the
quality Of the milk; 3D., the amount
of feed consumed by the COW. Rec
commended the weighing of the milk
every day; said that feed did not gen
orally change the quality of the milk,
but the quantity. In testing milk, it
is very essential that three things be
observed; 1st, fair sample should be
obtained; I'd, the acid used should be
of the right strength; Sd, the machine
should be run at a definite rate of
speed; showed and explained the
different parts Of the machine and
their workings. While the eight sam
pies of milk which had been brought
in were being arranged and prepared
for the test, the audience listened to
a song by Miss Mabel Black. After
the testing, the record of each was
read by Mr.. Hill, and ran from 10
to s 2-10, excepting the sample bro't
in by Mr.. Barrows, which tested about
II per cent, which was declared by
Mr.. Hill to be something unusual.
Mr.. Vail then favored the audience
with song, which showed that his
talent had not been wholly confined
to agricultural pursuits.
After the first forenoon, the meet
ings were very we'll attended and were
very interesting and instructive. We
believe that if the farmers would fol-
low out the plans laid out and the ad-
vice given by the board SO far as prac-
ticable, much good would result from
these meetings throughout the State.

1t takes 8 1900 mail cars to distribut @
Uncle Sans mail, and the New York
division alone requires $40 railway
clerks to handle it. Last year these
clerks handled /, 2O6, 22O,27 pieces of
mail bound past their division, of
which 976, 1876 were letters. To get a
clear idea of the immense amount of
mail matter in this number of letters,
suppose they averaged four inches in
length and are laid end to end. They
will stretch over a line 1875 miles
long. All railway postal clerks must
be quick and intelligent and have
thorough knowledge of the geogra-
phy of the whole country. In the
second division there are $4,000 post
offices, and the clerks know every
one. This system of railway post
offices has proved SO valuable that it
