Great Attraction at sherbrooke Fair

One OF the greatest attractions at Can

doubtedly be the visit of the q. S. Naval

This will be their first visit to Canada.
They will be 100 strong, including their
band of "a pieces. They will arrive in
Sherbrooke on Monday evening and give
two performances, Tuesday afternoon
and evening only, including gun mount
ing, cutlass drill, and their great wall
scaling act. This ought to prove the
drawing card of the whole week.

The Kerry Cow.

The Kerry cow Is being written
about quite extensively in our foreign
exchanges, and it IS not improbable
that she is among the breeds that will
some time be known in this country.
Whether she possesses any points that
would adapt her to some particular re-
gions of this country Is a matter Of
conjecture. Perhaps in some of our
more mountainous districts in the
south and in the far west she might
supply a demand for a dairy COW that
is poorly supplied at the present time
The COW mas already assumed consid
cradle Importance in England on ac-
count of being small in size and being
also able to thrive on poor short pas
turG. Evidently she has been deyel
Opcd under hard conditions. Some of
her English friends claim for her that
she will give more milk and butter &C.
cOrding 20 her weight and on poor pas
turage than any other breed of cattle
on the same kind Of pasturage. On
the other hand, the use Of good pas
turagc seems to be against the Kerry
cow, rs she at once begins to take
on flesh and shrink in her milk One
man says that the Kerry will live and
do well where Jersey COW would
starye. She is said to possess one
quality that certainly is not common
with cows and that is the ability to
regain her milk flow when 1t has been
shrunk for months from poor feed.
This is a point in her favor, If it can
be established. The Kerry is said
to be very hardy and to be able to
pass the Irish winter without shelter.

pipes is 151a miles. large proper
ton are 90 inches in diameter, the re-
mainder being 1871 inches. They have
been laid in lengths Of 4C inches. and
are coupled by means of tlanges and
bolts. The 2O-inch pipes are 13s

eighths of an inch. The only repairs
still found necessary consist in re-
placing from time to time the bolts,

DociIity of Pure-Dred Hous

1t is a great point in favor of pure
bred hogs that they are more docile
than the others and less liable to run
about. The fencing of them is com.
parativcly easy matter where the
fencing of the others was herculean
task. This point should be of itself
sufficient reason for the farmer to pay
n little more money and get pure
breds when he has the choice of buy
ing them or of purchasing others Of
the mongrol sort with rowing and rest
less p.Oclivities. 1t is not n pleasant
thing to have hogs always breaking
out of the yards and pastures and hav-
ing to hun them up in the highway or
the neighbors' vegetable garden. Then
the common sorts are hard to drive
and il is no easy matter to return
them TO their pens and yards once
they have broken out The quictcr
animals are more valuable for food,
as their muscles are tendercr More
over the quiet ones make better use
of their food and will make more
pounds Of gain per hundred pound Of
feed than the others. The breeders of
pure bred swine are constantly select
ing. though uncousciously, in the di-
roction of greater docility and tract
ability. The interests of the breeders
of pure bred swine and of the farmers
lie along the same line.

1T was, indeed" assentod Mac
Phail, most bizarre. AS | told you,
he died ostensibly from heart fail

while he was cashing check.
THE funeral took place from his
apartments uptown. and | never saw
such crowd of girls in my life at a
funeral before. All the girls we knew
he knew, and regiment of girls no
knew we didn't; at least, we'd never
seen them before.
"Mollie was there and well TO the
fore, although we never suspected she
was more than an ordinary mournCr,
but she aud all the other girls wore
crepe rather Ostcntatiously, and really
seemed overcome with grief.
Il got over by Mollie and asked her
who the deuce they were. and she
tossed her head disdainlully, and said
She didn't know; they were probably
