Tho Parls Uatt4o Show. Tihe TNtoh cattle, nearly all black antd -wi-ite, Iucluded over fifty animals utid mado a tmost creditable show. The class for cows was specially coiiond able, many of the animals showing great milkiig properties. Our English cow keepers well know these aniials, which have too often introduced the hated pleuro-pneilmoila. Iere they looked iI perfect condition for 1iMilking prurposes. The Notherla'nd hel d book society showed a capital lot, taking the first prize with a bull antd a Courtl for at cow, out of t lot of elghtexcel lent fe males. Mr. Derboven of Milincs, stood first with a cow having great milking properties, and was fith with his bull. Alr. Ilulleian of Furisk, was second for a bull, very big for his age a titd well grown. M. de Golde, of Guamereide slowed a capital lot of cows, One Of which stood second, being apparently anl excellent milker. The Swiss cattle presented great uniformity, all Ofra dark grey color, and not, unlike Jurseys, though oni a larger and coarsvir scale; with gaudy trIpIIllgs, all veru ex-hibited. It is probable that these, as well as 80111 of tihe FI enicl races, maily have origina.-lly conlie from11 the same stock as the Jerseys.

FARM AND GARDEN. A xnw CEREAL FOR THE WxsT.--In the reglons of weniern Kansas, where there its usually a lack of rainfall in any season, and141 where corn 0secially mutist have plenlty of moisture to pro dueo a crop In paying quantitles, at grain that will not merely be a suceed aium, but will atbsolutely take the place of corn, has been experimeted wit-h during t le past three seasons, and it is belleved to be demonstrated be yond ai dotbt that it will add very uunuch to the valuIe of Western lands. This grain is called Egyptian, or rice corn, and, so far as known, has not been cultivated in any other part of the Unit.ed States. The seed was obtained from the display made by the Egyptian Government at the Centennial Exposi tlion. The name is derived fron the resemblance of the grain to rice, and so far as it hts been experimented with, hits proved a success, both iI wet ant dry seasons. Willie growing this crop can hardly be distinguished 1rom sorF hum ; the seed forms at tile top of Ihe stalk in large bunches, anild, as it ripliens and gets heavier, bends over and hiains down, not uilike a cluster of' grapes. It belongs to tile sugar eane famlily and is cultivated in the saime manuner and as easily 1 as sorghuin or broom corn. One bushel of the seed is sutlicient for five acres, and it has been put in withi a wheat (r-ill. iI harvesting the heads only are gathered, and a good threslillig Imachliei will clean ready for market two thousand bushels a daty. he specimenis raised tis year weigl sixty 1o)un11lds to the bushel. Tihe yield per acre in 18'78 was from sixty to seventy-flve bushels. This ,ieasonl, which, as said above, has been a very dry onle, the yilid was forty to lorty-live bushels peri acre. No selentille analysis halts been made of this new graini as yet; indeed, it Is searcely klowi, except inl "oie two or three couniltles,inl Western KanIsas, where it has been grown by several farmers who desired to limid some grain that would selvNe ill place of corn at, food for stock. ie .rla bhy tiese mlel has sitis(led theil that for horses, cattle, sheep, or swinle, it is Surtiior to ma11tize, and faril animials t.o whichi it is ted give it the pret'eience to vorn when both are laid nefore thel .

Another met hod has been brought for ward by an English inventor for pro tacting iron from corrosion, the cost of the process being giveni as about Que thirdl Jhat of ia coat of paint, one-tenth that of clec ro-plating with nickle, and one-twen leth that of the ordinary op oration of printing and gliding ; it can also be colored in a vat icty of ways. The art.lles to be protected are coated with a thin Al.a or borate of lead, con taining a little cuprotis oxide in solu tion,and bright -cales of precipitated platinmiln i suspenslon. They are then heated t-) redness, and become covered with a thin, glassy, bright coat of' grey color, snlimar in apl)earance to polished Iron. Iron1 treated according to this method is said to .be "plantinized,"1 and among the advantages claimed for it over other protecting processes Is that it is unaffected by sewer gas, diliute acids and alkalies and ordinary tire heat.
