Devons.

The Devon COW, when properly de-
veloped, is a very superior dairy COW
and a breeder Of good grade steers that
in quality of flesh, when fat, are good
enough. When in Devonshire, in the
fall Of 1888, we saw some splendid
COWS Of this breed big enough, and
some others there too scrubby and
small for profit. Holstein cows here
are too slabsided, coarse and bony for
Chicago buyers; too much stew meat,
unless crossed with fine Durham cat
tie, two or more crosses. Small, rough
backed, meal-fed cows of all breeds are
not naturally fitted for the feeders.
They produce to the feeder that ma
lures their growth on great grass and
good hay until fully grown. These,
and stunted creatures Of every breed,
color and present condition are best
avoided.

Cost of Milk Production,

Professor Wing of Cornell, in his
summary, closing bulletin No. So, on
Cost of Milk Production" says:
Our records of this herd for the year
seem to warrant the following conclu-
sions:
1. With a fairly good herd, carefully
fed and kept, milk can be produced
for siXty-five cents per hundred weight,
and fat for sixteen cents per pound for
the cost of food consumed.
q. That individuals of the same
breed vary more widely in milk and
butter production than do breeds them
selves.
8. The larger animals consumed less
pounds of dry matter per thousand
pounds live weight per day than did
the smaller animals.

Big Profit in Goats.-The Shenandoah
Sentinel says ]. R. Standby of Platte
vile, Ia, and Justice Miller of Alton,
are engaged in raising Angora goats.
Mr.. Standby states that he invested
$3.50 in goats, and turned them upon
brush land. They cleared 800 acres for
him, entirely denuding it CT brush. and
converting it into excellent blue grass
pasture. During this time he sold
$1,000 worth of goats, and S740 in mo-
hair. He considers the work done by
them in clearing the land worth 81, 900,
so that his profit on the investment
was over $4,000. The fleece of the goat
is called mohair, and has a ready sale.
The goats browse upon the brush, eat
ing leaves, bark and twigs. He be-
lieves it will pay any farmer who has
brush land to raise the goats. Asia
and Africa each export 70, O0O, 900
pounds of mohair annually, and Amer
lea less than 1000, 600.

THE AMUSEMENT COMPANY.
Nearly All Stock Taken-Circular
Will Be sISsued.


Fhus far Mr. Robert Scott has Sc
cured 80 subscribers at $40 each to his
scheme for furnishing the Honolulu
public with popular theatrical amuse-
nents. Eighteen names are needed to
complete the list, and to raise the cap
ital stock of the company to the pro-
posed guarantee of $1,000 AS many
business men are interesting them
selves in the enterprise, it will, doubt
less, soon be placed upon a firm bust
ness footing.
MI. Scott has decided to make one
change in his original plans. 1t has
been suggested that one show company
per month, with the addition of chance
drop in, would probably prove too
much for staid Honolulu; and that if
the Amusement Company could pro-
duce an attraction once every two
months, it might perform an equally
appreciate and more successful serv-
ice. This point has been decided well
taken and the suggestion will be fol-
lowed. The company will endeavor TO
bring down its combinations by the
Australia and return them by the same
vessel. This will give them eight days
in Honolulu, and the opportunity for
about three appearances each.
OF the general plan of operation, Mr.
Scott said last evening:
1--WE propose issuing a circular, Civ
ing a full description of Honolulu. the
opera house, its patronage and all in
formation concerning the arrival and
departure of steamers. This will be
sent to the managers in New York
city who book the tours of companies.
Our guarantee of 200 will be an in
ducement TO the best travelling combi-
nations to come here. And, of course.
there is something in it for the Amuse-
ment Company. A certain percentage
OF the net earnings is reserved, which |
should give US fair dividends"

NOTES FROM INDIA
Received in Letter From
Presbyterian Missionary.
Influence of Christianity in Abolish.
ing Evlls-Number of People
Killed by Snakes.

In a letter from William H. Han
mum, Presbyterian missionary of the
Ohio State University, at Columbus,
was contained the following clipping
from an Indian paper, containing notes
OF interest:
We find list of evils that have been
abolished by the English Government,
within 80 years. In nearly every case,
it may be safe to say in every case,
the protest has come at first through
missionaries. Being strengthened by
Christians, both European and Indian
III this country, and then pressed by
the Christian influence in England, the
protests grew into law forbidding the
following evils:
1. Infanticide.
2. Suffice (satD.
4. Meriah sacrifices.
5. Swinging by an iron hook run
through the muscles of the back.
6. Piercing the thigh with sword,
and marching with the weapon
sticking in the limb.
Z Taking evidence by torture.
8. Barbarous modes of executing
condemned persons.
8. Slavery (once common among
Mahomedans and Hindus).
10. Forfeiture of property on CONVEX
sion.
IL. Indecent exhibitions at festivals.
r. Unjust treatment of lower castles
partially remedied).
13. Prohibition of widow-marriage.
II. Early marriages discouraged.
10. Government administration of
the revenues of heather temples.
16. Firing saluteS in honor of heath
en- festivals.
The above are bare facts, and but
few among the many that might be
cited to show the progress of Christi
anity That the Gospel. the Good It'd
ings, is permeating India in all direc-
items cannot be denied by anyone. AS
an educated Hindu said to us: BE
patient with us, do not hurry us to
become Christians. Do you not see
that we are all tending that way? We
use your phrases. We quote every
where from the Bible, our customs are
fast yielding to yours"
The figures which show the number
of human beings killed by snakes and
wild animals are respectively, 22,0S6
and 3,104 for 1895, as against 81, $50
and 1888 in 1894. The mortality from
wild animals in 1895 was larger than
in the previous year, the increase be-
inG chiefly due to a large rise in the
Northwest provinces and Oudh, where
wolves proved exceptionally descruc-
tive, 246 deaths, mostly young child
rem, being ascribed to them, compared
with 100 in 1894. The provinces in
which loss of life from all causes was
highest in proportion to population
were Assam, Central Provinces, Lower
Provinces of Bengal and Burmah The
mortality in these provinces being one
in $4,000, one in 37059, one in 67,119
and one in 69,141, respectively. TAX
ing the whole of British India togeth-
er, one person was killed among every
1,051, against one in every 76,436 in
1894
