increasing sales and popularity have been
the result. The people have promptly
ratified the official verdicts that declared

eve have Jersey COW whose mother
is seven Fights. Her mother, herself,
and her calf were each in turn sired
by a thorouhbred bull. How much
Jersey is the last calf? How long, if
ever, would it require to produce
thoroughbred on this line of breed
ing? I have figured the calf men
toned as 1854. How are thorough
breds produced as thoroughbreds?'
If the first COW was ven-eights
the next calf would be 1916, the next
1892 and the next 1854. No amount
of breeding of this line will produce
a thoroughbred calf because the rules
of the American Jersey Cattle Club
require that the breeding on both
sides trace back to recorded stock. 1t
is the same with Short-horns. Thor
loughbreds are produced in the first
place by an agreement among breed
ers as to what shall constitute thor
oughbreeding. The herds thus recog
nized constitute the foundation stock,
Some herd books permit animals of
five or six different crosses of thor
oughbred sires on common stock to
be registered as thoroughbreds, but
sooner or later all the herd registeries
abandon this and require everything
to trace directly to imported or to re-
corded stock. The Short-horn, for
example, up to certain time per-
mitted five or six crosses, it being
considered that this number of
crosses made the animals for all
practical purposes equivalent in value
to thoroughbreds. 1t is only ques-
ton of time, however, when all herd
books and flock books abandon this
and rule out everything that is not
already recorded. -Wallaces' Farmer.
The moaning plant of the male
sex because so many young women
go into other lines of life than that
of housekeeping, when specifically
considered, seems justified. The I'M
vanished truth, however, is, that
very few men are worth marrying.
Mentally contrast, if you will. the
young men of your acquaintance
with the brave girls who earn their
own livelihood, and convince your
self, if you can, that the former inn
moral, profane, tobacco-burning lot,
are worthy of the latter. When the
general run" of young men become
clean-hearted, industrious gentlemen,
the female labor" problem will in
great part solve itself in that fine old
institution called love and matrimo-
ny. The American girl should re-
fuse to we'd save with her equal, and
the average American girl is hard to
equal, and can't be beat.-Up- to-
Date.

wrote while ago to the sanitary inspeo-
tor:
"When at your Office few days since
YOU will reoollect, perhaps, that ] re-
ferred to the matter OF excluding cats
from 'tiphtheritio patients. at that time
we had a family under quarantine with
diphtheria. The last thing before l left
the house cautioned the head of the
family against allowing nats in the rooms
where the child was sick, hut he said,
pooh! and called me whimsical. They
let the child have the cat to play with
constantly. The result was that in a
few DAYS the animal was taken sick; it's
throat was SO swollen that it could not
swallow, and it gave such unmistakabIe
signs of diptheria that they killed the cat
without delay.
'iThat family has doubtless learned
SON ething from the cat, if they could
not from the board OF health. +"

Cured. The people In the house, for
some reason or other, exhibit a wonder
full reticence about the matter, and
about the man. They were willing to
