that there is nothing pernicous In a

POINTS OF SUPERIORITY
OF JERSEY CATTLE,

One of the great points OF superiority
or Jersey cattle Is their ability to trans
food into a large quantity of milk contaiu-
ing very large percentage Of butter fat
writes A. $, Ennis IN The Rurallst. The
prevailing idea Of farmers, and many 9TH
ers Is that Jerseys give very small
quantity OF very rich milk. The fact is
that Jerseys give n larger Yield of milk in
a year by far than the average COW kept
IN the country and at much less cost OF
keeping. The Jersey, Is small IN size and
Is not beefy has no place to put on much
fat and no use for much food to go to fat:
Il is all put into mix, The percentage of
butter fat IN their milk IL easiyl % per
cent larger than that of ordinary grade

II may be pointed out. however. that
the denomination OF a cOmmoner 10 the

the foreign ministers of the British
crown during the last hundred years

Lords Aberdeen, Granville, Malmes-

Among the reasons for this is the fact
that in the house of lords the respon-

exposed to indiscreet questions on the
part Of members of the opposition than
In the lower chamber of the national
