Bow <• Select a Cow.
Hon. H. Lewis, of New York, read a
before a convention of dairymen
Ontario, from which we extract:
Again, one breed of oows will do well
on some land, where soma other breed
would be almost or quite worthless.
Hence, I advice every dairyman to select
that particular cow or breed beat suited
to his lands, where abo is to obtain her
food, and best adapted to that branch of
dairy farming in which he is epgaged.
If, fur instance, your pasture lands
arc rough, or ou rtcep side hills, select a
small, active cow, and if bntter-makiuA
is your business the Jersey or Devon and
their grades from our native sows will
prove satisfactory. But if eheesa-
making is your business, or the
d'K-tion at milk foe market, the
shire is the euw. While her milk is well
adapted for cheese or far market, It is
better than the average oowr’i for butter.
Again, U your pastor* lands
dactive and moderately level, with
ter making you business, select the
Holdermee or the Prtneeee family at
HhorVburns, or their grides from our
native oows But d cheese or milk only
be y-mr object, the Ho etms* will prove
mumlfeory

all the world beside. I admire the

A novel but profitable industry in the

demand, and the prices are paid for
them by the ton.

the writer quoted that opium is not need,
although it used to be formerly, in Eng
land, but stringent tows broke tha prac
tice. The Bubstenoes used to flavor to
bacco are numerous. Every manu
facturer h*s his own formula Vanilla
is the most common. This is employed
in the form of an alcoholic tincture to
flavor fillings. It is said that few cigars
are free from vanilla. Its effects are
not harmful if not used in exoeas. The
tonka bean and balsam fir are used in
the same way and for the same purpose.
Cedar oil is alsd introduced. The best
imitator of the tabaooo flavor is valerian.
Valerian and vanilla are the most valu
able chemicals now in use by tobaccon
ists. By their use the poorest stem*
may be converted into fair tobacco. Into
and horns, with con- cigarettes enter not only valerian and J
' vanilla, bat cascarilla bark. To make
cigars burn, ammonia is used, and they
are soaked in saltpetre. The latter is
injurious and makes young men old
with dispatch. The object of its use is
to cause the cigar to burn freely. It bav-*-
been noticed by some smokers that an
intoxicating effect has been produced by
some cigars. This is produced by dip
