The jersey Cow.

A correspondent asks us how 1t is
that Jersey cattle are so preserved In
uniform appearance and conforma-
ton. If our correspondent will con-
slider and reflect little upon the lew
OF the Jersey Island, that for great
number of years back in the CEN
turtles, no other cattle could be
brought there. Under this law the
purity as we'll as uniformity of the
breed has been preserved down to the
present, and this has made the Jersey
COW so generally regarded as the DOM
inant butter breed of the world. In
his reference to some of the early i'm
portations to this country, the we'll
known writer on Jersey cattle, VAL
ancey E. Fuller, says:
Like every breed, the Jersey breed
has strains or families that stand out
prominently. One of the first to at
tain any considerable notoriety in
the olden days was that of Albert A.,
who was the sire of six daughters in
the fourteen-pound list, the most
famous OF whom was COUGHS Lily,
who made sixteen pounds five and
one-half ounces in seven days, and
seventy-one pounds in thirty days. l
knew Couch s Lily, and while she was
considered a great cow and a great
breeder in those days, she was not
noted for beauty. Lady Mel I'd was
another daughter of Albert A, who
qeservedly had a national reputation,
as she had a record of 1S3 pounds
In siXty-one days. I question II she
was rs well known as COUGHS Lily.
and yet she should have enjoyed even
better reputation.
And SO in preserving this great
dairy breed constant importations are
being made from the Jersey Island.

Knoxville, Tenn, SpeciaI,-For the
Appalachian Exposition, to be held in
Knoxville, September II to October
IL, the railroads Of the southeastern
territory have granted extremely low
rates which insure the success of the
enterprise, making possible the at
tendence of thousands. The exposi-
ton being especially designed for the
states of the Appalachian region,
Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina, Geor-
gla, Alabama and Kentucky, there is
sure to be q large patronage of the
coach excursions to be run on Tues
days and Thursdays during the ex-
position period, for which the rate
will be approximately one cent per
mile travelled. Tickets sold for these
excursions will be good only in
coaches.
Tickets at approximately one and
oae-half cents per mile travelled will
be on sale during the exposition.
These will be good in Pullman sleep
ers and will allow a ten days. stay
In Knoxville.
1t Is expected that at least 100000
persons will visit the exposition. One
OF its most enthusiastic boomers is
Passenger Traffic Manager S. H.
Hardwick, of the Southern Railway
Company which has several lines con-
verging at Knoxville. The Southern
is very much interested in the sue
cess of the exposition, as has been
its uniform policy with such enter
pr7ses in the South, and is co-operat-
ing with its management to the fullest
extent.

And the best way to do 1t is to dig
out the root stocks with a fork, which
Will not break them on as does q
hoe or spade. The ground also is
likely to be more or less filled with
stones and rocks, and It is very de-
sirable that these should be removed
before the crops are planted.
Consequently. II you desire to have
successful garden next season, de-
eide on its location this fall, get the
ground as well prepared as possible,
and leave it in such condition that
the freezing and thawing in the win
ter will help in giving the soil finely
pulverized condition, in which the
roots Of plants can grow to much bet
ter advantage than in soil where the
particles are coarse. You will also
thus be able to draw plans for your
garden during the winter months
with more assur ance of success than
II you leave all the preparations to the
few weeks of spring, when there are
so many things to take up the time
and attention of the gardener.-The

Alfalfa and Weeds.

Ordinarily, If farmer sows alfalfa
In the spring, he has his old enemy,
the weeds, to contend with. If the
season be damp and cloudy, the al
falfa may not grow fast, but weeds
will. Therefore June may see him
moving to retard a rampant growth
OF weeds instead of gathering a profit
able cutting of prime hay. 1t is not
improbable that he may be doing the
same in July or in September, thus
losing a whole season. Again, the
spring preparation comes when the
farmer needs to be working his corn
and potato land, hence he is likely
to slight or neglect the careful prep
aration of the alfalfa ground and so
do poor job with, in such cases. the
usual result of a poor stand" Then,
too, the frequent rains interfere with
regular disking and narrowing and
the weeds may obtain a start the
farmer cannot tcheck.-From Coburn' s

Fertilizers.

In experiments made at the agri-
cultural station of Lausanne, Switzer-
land, for the purpose of determining
the effect of potash fertilizers upon
natural meadows, two neighboring
fields, having almost identical soils
OF glacial mari, showed a marked diff
ference in effect and, very curiously,
the soil of the field that had yielded
the larger crop was found, after har-
vest, to contain more potash than that
OF the other field. This remarkable
result has been traced to the influence
of drainage. The better drainage Of
the field which yielded the larger
crop promoted the circulation of air
and water in the soil, favored the as
similation OF soluble nutriment, and
caused the roots to extend to a great
er depth and utilize large volume of
earth. This example shows that the
fertility of soil cannot always be
determined by chemical analysis
alone.

During the Congress recess legisla-

There is a suggestion of scandal in
some of these investigations and re-

session calculated to stir up more or
less excitement.
Foreshadowing all other investiga-

the President to approve a contract
made with the Indians by firm Of
