SELECTING Individuals.

There is very little difference In
the amount of butter fat produced on
the average by the various breeds
There is a great deal more difference
between the individuals of breed
than between the breeds. Good cows
are found in every breed and poor
COWS are found in every breed. A
good Holstein is better than a poor
Jersey, and a good Jersey is better
than poor Holstein. The selection
of breed, then, is not of so much i'm
portance as the selection of the indi.
yiduals within the breed.

characteristics of our own peerless
Yellowstone National park. Snow
clad peaks of greater heights, how
ever, are in evidence, and in that re-
Jpect remind one more of the Alpine
scenery of Switzerland. That huge
mass to the northward, 10000 feet in
height, whose peaks are covered with
eternal snow, is known as the Cas-
cades. To the eastward the Fair
holmes, behind which lies Lake Min
newanka. That sharp cone, known as
Peechee (called after an Indian chief
closes the view in that direction.
Along the razorlike back of the Sui
phur mountain, 5000 feet high, the
Dominion government has established
an observatory. 1t is a favorite climb
for visitors to the park. The Alpine
club is located half way up the noun
tain side. The isolated bluff south
ward, known as Tunnel mountain"
has some beautiful driveways made
by the Dominion government, from
which pleasing vistas can be had OF

reminiscence to the tourist over the
Canadian Pacific railway, to leave

mountains with us to visit these
lakes. Lake Louise is one of natures
rarest gems of beauty. 1t lies at an
elevation of 5,645 feet, and is shut in
on every side by rocky snow-capped
heights, a picture of perfect peace. AS
you stand on its shores and look
southwark across its mirrored surface
you will observe the forefront of the
great glacier, slanting upward until it
reaches a depth of 500 feet of solid
blue and green ice, fed continuously
by avalanches from that great mass
of snow and ice on the endless groups
of enormous heights beyond, the peak
dominating the scene is Mount Vic
toria, 10000 feet high. The ascent
from Lake Louise to Mirror lake and
