A RANK GROSS

One Of the men most extensively en-.
gagged in dairying in southern Mime.
sofa told us lately that he was going;
to top his carefully selected herd of
Jersey and Guernsey cows with a
Polled Angus sire. lie said that the
calf had become such an important
factor In the profits Of dairying that
he could no longer afford to fuss with,
purely dairy bred steer calves If it
We're desirable to get this beef cross on
a dairy herd composed SO largely Of
Jersey blood, we should not have taken
his method, but would have made a
less violent cross by using pure bred
Shorthorn sire, selected from a family
of known milking quality. We, are.
afraid that this. .Angus-Jersey cross
will in no sense be satisfactory one.

BIG nIyInENns.

A stakeholder in certain canning
factory in Iowa which had a paid up
capital of $4,000 told us recently that
for the five years ending in 1897 he
had received dividend annually of 80
per cent on his stock; that for 1898 he
received dividend Of 80 per cent and
for the present year the enormous div
idend Of 300 per cent. We think he
told us the truth, though he might have
lied We do not know, however, that
the farmers made good thing out of
this canning factory, whatever the
stockholders may have done. We
shan't tell where this factory is lo-
Gated, but you are quite likely to be
eating some Of its products, than which
none better are made.

THE Law OF REyERsIoN.

If one should take six distinct and
different breeds of fowls-for instance,
White Brahma, Leghorn, Houdan,
Plymouth Rock, Langshan and Wyan-
dotte-and let the, breeds mix, hit and
go miss, for six years, what sort of a
breed of fowls would one have at the
end of that period? Well, for one
thing, the law Of reverslon would be
very nicely illustrated. The distinctive
features of each of these breeds would
disappear. The ultimate product would
be just common scrub stock, with the
chance that the Leghorn type would
suffer the least in the metamorphosis,
as that breed more closely follows the
original type of jungle fowl from
which all our poultry originally came.
This same process of deterioration and
reversion to original types operates
just as powerfully with stock of tie
improved breeds as it does with poul-
try, and 1t explains why, when a man
starts out to cross Jerseys with Hol-
stems, Shorthorns with Polled Angus
and all this sort of cross breeding, he
soon finds himself a breeder Of simple
and original scrubs. The improved
breeds Of poultry and. Stock are, we
might say, purely artificial produc.
tons, the results of careful selection
by man, and need to be continually re-
enforced and fortified by additions of
blood from animals excelling in the
particular quality for which the breed
may be noted. Now you can see. why
the grade sire will always run a, herd
Of stock or flock Of poultry down
and how importantdtis taseIsct nn3y
the purest bred sires ifia herd ,ef eat
tie or a flock of poultry is to be I'M
proved in quality or even maintained
In excellence. /. SO =.

Rural Free Delivery.

Washington, Nov 24.--It is quiz
likely that congress the coming winter
will make radical extension of the
free delivery system. The postofhce
department has made such n rosy re-
port concerning the possibilities of the
system, and the people who are being
served by it are SO thoroughly pleased,
that there is really nothing congress
can do but to order tile extension. The
sudden development of this service re-
calls the struggles of the men who first
proposed it. 1t was first suggested un-
der Postmaster General John Wanna
maker, and opposition was still SO vig-
orous, even up to the last session, that
there has not been, even up to this
time, fair opportunity to demonstrate
the full value and Importance of it.
Senator Quay, who had charge of the
postotfice appropriation bill in the last
congress, accepted an amendment to
abolish the rural free delivery alto
gether and was with difficulty over
ruled by his associates. Members of
both houses We're under the influence,
to greater or less extent, of 4 pow
erful lobby, composed of paid agents
of. fourth class postoffices, and the free
delivery idea has had to work its way
to the front in the face of the most
stubborn and selfish opposition all
along the line. The day of final victo-
ry seems at last TO have dawned, for
it is now admitted, in official reports,
that the cost per month per capita of
delivering mail in the rural districts is
smaller than that of free delivery in
the smaller cities. The farming COM
munities all over the land are delight
ed with the service, and are clamorous
for its immediate introduction.

A FOE OF THE SUGAR TRUST.

While not very much is being said in
the papers about 1t, it is none the less
true that the sugar trust is bitterly op-
posed to the development of the beet
sugar interests Of this country. With
independent factories, which in the
case Of beet sugar are also refineries,
the beets going in at one end of the
factory and coming out at the other as
fehned granulated sugar, 1t will be
next to impossible for the trust to
manipulate and control the price of
sugar us 1T does today. At the present
time the trust is taking all the product
OF the few factories now in operation,
and trust prices govern the selling
price Of the home grown sugar When
we get more factories, this will not be
so easy to do.

We notice that an eastern nursery
company lately sold nursery stock to
the amount of $500 in one county in
Iowa. There are lots of trouble and
disappointment ahead for the pur-
chasers of this stock. Nearly all east
ern varieties Of fruit are failures in
this latitude and climate. The men
who bought this stock did not know,
We're fooled by smooth tongued agents
and have thrown most Of their money
away. The only safe way to do here in
the northwest is to find an honest home
nurseryman, buy your trees of him and
be guided by his selection of varieties.
If the trees fail or are not true to
name, you can then get at him and lick
him If you feel like 1t, while the Ohio
and New York man is not to be reached.
