in the best live cows of any breed
there was but one Ilolstein-Friesian,
the four others being Jerseys, the

second in Class 15. The best live IIolsteins
produced, collectively, in the
120 days, 34.401.7 lbs. milk, containing

From the above it will be seen tbat,
omparing the live leading cows of
both the Jersey and the llolstein herds
it took 23.57 lbs. of llolstein milk to
yield one poond of butter, against
17.02 lbs. of Jersey milk to a pound of
butter. The llolstein butter cost in
feed a little over 12c. per pound; the
Jersey butter cost in feed 0.77c. per
pound. The Uolsteins produced in
the 120 days 1345 lbs. more milk per
head, but the Jerseys produced IS lbs.
3 oz. mote butter per head, cost $4.K0
per head less to feed, and returned, as
butter-producers, $0.41 more net profit
per head, and as milk-producers, $7.21
more net prolit per head. Reducing
the above to daily averages per head,
we tind that the Uolsteins orodneerl
11. _! Il.s. more milk per liesul per day,
lint ilm Jerseys produced two and twofifths

Old Sevres porcelain lioKls Its own
among those who are wealthy enough
to buy It, because; within dcllnite limits,
It Is perfect. The united skill of
the l>est French chemists, potters,
artists and sculptors of the time went
to Its making; the sordid necessity of
oarntug a profit did not trouble the director
of Sevres, for an easy going
monarch was always ready to make
good the yearly loss.
Technical perfection?no less?was
aimed at, and It was attained. Frenchmen
of that day grumbled at the
waste of public uiouoy on the Pompadour's
whim, but Louis took 110 heed.
