Shorthorns among the dairy breeds and says: The cattle which have been most famous as a breed in England and America, which have received the longest and closest attention of breeders and improvers, which have commanded prices, singly and In herds, far above all others and which have made the Most general impression upon the live stock of both countries during the nineteenth century are the Shorthorns or Durhams.Wallace says they are descended from the old northeast of England breed variously designated as \u201cDurham,\u201d \u201cTeeswater,\u201d \u201cYorkshire\u201d and \u201cHolderness,\u201d and adds: \u201cThe breed was probably originally formed, though perhaps several centuries ago, by crossing the aboriginal British cows with large frame bulls imported frum the conrinent.Early Shorthorns were good uilkers, and it may Le pre sumed they in part inherited that quality along wiih the shortness of horn trom their continental anrestors, oe SR BHORTHORN MILRER.tle is known of the breed except from the uncertain authority of tradition down to the early part of the cight- eenth century, though it is only right to infer that long before this time great care and even skill had been bestowed upon it.The earliest records show that purity of breed was fully appreciated, and this important fact could net have been universal without previous experience and attention.\u201d Tue aim of nearly all (he improvers of Shorthorus has been to secure early maturity, size, form and beef produces \u2018 ing qualities.\u201cAll is useless that is not beef\u201d was the motto of an emiaent breeder, and he has had many followers.Thomas Bates is the most noted of the few who have seemed anxlous to retain good milking eapacity.and wany breeders in the United States pers bave always Leen good dairy cows among them.and in England strains and families of them have been kept somewhat distinet and known as \u201cmilking Shorthorns.\u201d When first brought to America, Shorthorns earned the name of \u201cthe milk breed.\u201d Among old records are those of cows giving six, eight and even nine gallons of milk a day on grass alone.Although now latent in most lines, there seems to be a dairy quality in- Lerent in the breed which some careful managers are able successfully to develop and propagate.Records of several dairy herds in the United States within a quarter eentury show a milking season of about 275 days and an average product of 6,500 pounds of milk.One herd of ten cows from 3 to 12 years old gave 7.750 pounds each in a year.Single cows have averaged much more, several instances being known of 10,000 to 12.000 pounds in a season.The Shorthern milk is of good quality, rather above the average.The fat globules are of medium and fairly uniform size, so that cream separates easily.It is rather pale in color.In 1824 a cow near Philadelphia made over 20 pounds of butter in a week without special feeding.Herds of 40 cows have averaged 209 pounds of butter a year.The herd of ten cows mentioned above averzged 323 pounds, and single cows have records of 400 pounds and over.one being of 513 pounds.The Dny of Fancles, We suppose there will always be some worthless fads or fancies in the world of live stock breeding, says The National Stockman, There have been many in the past, and every now and then a new one Lobs up.But we are lad to say that experience has not Leen without its lessons.Breeders are not taking things for granted these days.Every statement is scanned closely.The man with a fad no longer finds an audience that swallows all his statements without the proverbial grain of salt, \u2018The fads of the future must bave some foundation in utility, or at least an appearance of it, or they will not live long enough to do much damage.[It is very gratifying to practical men to see some of their number vhacking away at this fancy foolishness whenever ft appears.They cannot hit it too hard nor too often.Dairying In Oregon, There is no luck of interest in the subject of developing the dairy industry In Oregon at the present time, There is talk of establishing ereameries at alinost every town In Oregon which is not already provided with one, says the Oregon Agriculturist, The final success of the creameries which will Le established will hinge mueh upon the thoroughness with which a campaign of educational

One of the needs of the time is some uniform standard of butter and cheese making, so that there will be less difference between the grades which are shipped to our markets, says W.B.' Farmer in American Cultivator.Such uniformity of our product would be of inestimable value to our shipping trade, which at present hans a good deal to contend with in foreign mar kets.If all dairymen tried to make their butter and cheese after a certain excellent formula, the products would soln obtain a better reputation ln Bu- rope.One of the secrets of the success of Canadian cheese in England is that it is all of a uniform standard.Cheeses from 40 or 50 factories or farms can Le placed alongside of cach other, and they look so much alike that it would Le hard to Lelieve that they were made in widely different parts of the country by ns many different men.Through co-operation and united effort the Canadian cheesemakers Lave come to adopt a modern, clean, sue cessful method of waking aud curing their cheese, and, as all cheese that falls te come up to the standard cannot be exported as Canadian cheese, ; the shrewd dairymen have little incentive to make anything except the ; best.Now, having established an enviable record for thelr cheese.these | same dairymen are devoting their at- j tention to the improvement of their | butter product.They are employing \u201cthe same method to do this that they ; adopted se successfully for their I cheese.cheese more than anything else that \u201cbas given it the reputation abroad.In looking around for a standard of ither cheese or butter, it is only neces- | to examine the product of the \u201ceareful.skillful dairymen in the spring ;and summer of the year.Nature's suceulent food is nt its best Dow, and iit is not diffeult to make tine, yellow butter or rich.fine, full crenm cheese.i The product of the dairy at this season : Should be accepted as the standard for j the year round.Our June creamery ; butter is considered so fine that speeu- {lators buy hundreds of tons of it and i store it for winter trade.This would | not be necessary if we made an effort to keep up the standard.The cow is one of the most valuable fof the farm animals as un economic producer of food from the conrse and ; cheap fodders of the farm, says a cor- { respondent of \"The Breeder's Gazette, | The One pound of dry matter in milk is | produced from 8 pounds of dry mmntter !

foods, and there is less waste, The i dairy cow, will long survive the steer \u2018As à producer of food for man.Corn Oil Menl, We are receiving many inquiries of late concerning this relatively new byproduct from corn, says Lloard's Dairyman.It is made from corn hearts, or the germs of the corn kernels, and is claimed to have better if not greater feeding value than linseed oil meal.While we are not prepared to vouch for the literal accuracy of this claim, we have no question that it is a valuable addition to the list of highly concentrated foodstuffs rich in digestible protein and one that dairymen will be well repaid for giving n fair trial.Feed merchants in dairy districts ought to be prepared to distribute this meal to their customers this spring in small lots so that its vaine may be demonstrated and the farmers be pre- red to place ther orders for next winter's feed understandingly.It ought to Le sold regularly for about $22.50 per ton at retail, and, If it shall prove on trial to have the merit claimed for it, it will fill a place now largely vacant because of the excessive prices charged for linseed oil meal In many sections of the country.Filthy MIIk and Oleo.The oleo men are now making much of the argument that filthy milk is sometimes sent to the creamery for butter making, says Rural New York- | er.Then they say that laws to compel | dairymen to be clean are more needed | than laws to regulate the sale of olco.| Of course they think so.From their i standpoint filth in milk is a terrible crime, while filth in business morals is ; à little thing.Dairymen do not object | to fair sanitary laws.They will be clean if the oleo people will be honest.All manner of tricks are resorted to in \"order to evade the present laws.Just as iu the sale of \u201cprocess.\u201d or deviled, butter, all sorts of scliemes are practiced to pasg the stuff off dishonestly.In some cases where the state laws demand that packages shall be plainly marked purple wrapping paper Is used, with the printed name in about the same color ink.In other cases yellow ink Is used on the white wrapping paper, so that ft cannot be easily read.No use talking, the oleo business is full of fraud which our present laws cannot prevent.F \"THE COMING ECLIPSE.BY SIMON NEWCOMB, U.£.H, fiate Director of The Nautical Als manac, \u2014+ He Has Described In the New York Post the Location and Plans of Va.Tlous Expeditions\u2014Probable Locn- tion of the Shadow's Edge\u2014The Spectacle's Magnificence at Hampton Roads\u2014Sun\u2019s Appendagen.The total eclipse of the sun, during which the shadow of the moon will pweep over the gulf states, North Car- .olina and southeastern Virginia on the 28th of May, will be the rst one visi ble on the Atlantic seaboard since 1869.In the latter year the moon's shadow passed over the western and middle states, from lowa eastward, entering the Atlantic ocean from the coast of North Carolina, In which state it crossed the path of the coming eclipse.On It is the uniformity of their following illustrates this point: | | the 28th Inst.the shadow will first strike the earth in the Pacific ocean, \u2018off the const of southern California, ; but the total phase will oceur so soon | after sunrise that the phenouenon will not Le well seen until the shadow i reaches New Orleans, [from this point \u2018to Norfolk it sweeps across the country sin nearly a straight line, passing over a region in whieh, if the weather reports | are reliable, the chances of a cloudless | i morning are unusually good.Unfortu- | uately, the duration of the total phase fs rather short, being only about 1 min.jute 13 seconds at New Orleans and 1 \u2018minute 40 seconds at Norfolk, The.longest duration will be 2 minutes 8 seconds.| | Notwithstanding the brevity of the \u2018time at the disposal of observers ex- \"tensive preparations have been made for the observations hoth here and in the region ef the Mediterranean, The Intter region will naturally Le that visited by European astronomers, | } | | i PROFESSOI: SIMON NEWCOMR, while the American parties will ob- (serve In their own country.readily be seen that the sun might hap.\u201cmile or more within the ealeuinted Him.\"ts of the shadow, , 18 Impossible to say exactly what the \u201cobservers around Hampton Roads wil | the shadow on one side of them and \"sunshine To this!

Geographic soclety has also arranged for a social expedition to this \u2018point.Tt intends to photograph the isky during the total phase and make :such scientific observations as are pos- {sible under the cireumstances.The \u2018greatest number of parties will be collected at Wadesboro, N.C., where Princeton university expects to send 1 party In charge of Professor Young.| Another party which has chosen this | nation is that of Professor Langley !trom the Smithsonian institution.This | party will be unusually large, both in numbers amd the magnificence of its outfit.It has been aided by ap appro- ; prlation from congress.A number lof photographic telescopes will be brought Into requigition, two of them of such long focus that they will be Aged In a horizontal position.The image of the eclipsed sun will he thrown into them by means of a mir- \u201cor.| The weather bureau !s expected to have a party at Newbury, 8.C,, In !charge of Professor Cleveland Abbe.i This party will devote special attention to the polarization of the light of the \u2018sky.Another finely equipped party y will be that from the ITarvard observatory, In charge of Professor W.H.Pickering.Washington, Ga., has been chosen as its station.Besides the or- linary observations, this party will devote special! attention to photograph- Ing the sky around the sun with a view io the discovery of any unknown cb fects.[or this purpose a sort of multiple telescope has been designed by Professor Pickering with special reference to getting Impressions of the faintest objects that can be brought out under the circumstances.The instrument will have several object glasses, each of which will photograph its own portion of the sky.All combined will pro- luce a photograph Including the whole latest advices

a party at Thomaston, Ga.Parties from the naval observatory in charge of Professor 8.J.Brown, U.8, N, will be located at Barnesville and Griffin in Georgia.They will comprise pot only a large number of the observatory staff, but a number of associate members from the Johns Hopkins and other universities fu various parts of the country.It is expected that this party will devote speeial attention to photographing the eclipsed sun with a view of comparing the exuct position of the moon on the sun with that predicted in the astro.nomleal ephemeris.It will probably be the most richly equipped of all expeditions, so far as 1uvney values are ceneernted, having been aided by an appuoprintion of $5,000 by congress.The ready accessibility of Norfolk and its nelghborhou: may be expected to lead to a great inlux of spectators.Virginia Beach, which is readily acces- gible, is not far north of the central line, But il Is quite possible that observers on or around Lampton Roads may really see some grand features of the scene whieh will not be grasped by those fu the interior.1f the astronomical tables ave perfectly exnet, the edge of the shadow will pass over Newport News and Old l\u2019oint Comfort, Spectators at these points will therefore have sunlight on the other, Unfortunately, the astronomer cannot guarantee the correctuess of his prediction within two or three miles.This is not surprising if one retlects Uiat the corrvet- ness of the predictions must depend on the position and motion of a heavenly body nearly a quarter of a nillion miles away.which has to he derived frem tables made à whole generation in advance by mathematical methods so dilfieult that tiie most painstaking rescarehes of the ablest mathematicians of the world hve not yet brought them (lo perfection.Yet another diffieulty in the case arises from the irregular outllne of the moon, Phe surface of our satellite Is variegated with mountains snd valleys which make its outline extremely tre regular.The exact sltuntion of these objects and their effect on the total phinse ennnot le predieted, 11 will pen to shine through a valley on the lunar surface so ns to throw its light a For these reasons i see\u2014whether a momentary total eolipse | or one during the greatest phase of which there will «tll be glimpses of the light of the sun.Bgually diffiealt Is It to say whether there will

the wide extent of | view afforded by Inmpton Roads will add greatly to the magnificence of the spectacle.An observer who wishes to sce the phenomenon to the best possible advantage should use a comparatively small telescope of low power-n common spyglass or even an oper glass will suflice.With such an lnstenment he enn take in the whole effuigence surrounding the densely black body of the moon nt a single view.\u201cThe rosy pronifnenees will be perhaps the most fnteresting detail that can be observed, They nre not always entirely red.The forms are of the most fantastic and varied character.As the writer saw oue of them during the veltpse of 1860 it might almost be described as looking like a huge pile of snow peuks, glaciers and clouds shining In the full light of the sun and varying in tint from n light rosy hue to the brillant white of a distant snow peak.A very important point to lie consid- cred 18 the probability of a clear sun during the total phase.The weather bureau har for two years past caused special observations to be made In various towns along the Ine of totality, with a view of throwing light on this point.Jt appears from the results of these investigations that the chances of a clear sky ure unusaally good.They are best in northern Georgin and South Casolina and gradually dlmin- Ish toward the senconst, but even nt Norfolk there seems to be more than an even chance of snccess.The scientific value of observations made during total eclipses of the sun rrises from the fact that the sun's sur roundings can be scanned to the best ndvantage only on these rare occasions.Under all ordinary circumstances these surroundings are rendered nearly or quite invisible Ly an obstacle which the human race, with all its powers, has not been able to evade.This Is nothing less than the atmosphere In which we are obliged to dwell.If the carth were not surrounded by this envelope, If we could look out from fits surface Into blank space, the sky would he black all day, the stars could be seen In the brightest sunshine, as well as at night, and the astronomer could sean the reglon round the sun, up to the very limb of the latter, by the simple expedient of shading off its Hght by some terrestria) object.The atmosphere prevents all this through its Lrfilant illumination by the sun's rays, which not only makes the stars invisible.but any objects that may ex- Ist in the neighborhood of the sun.The Intensity of the illumination or ski light varies greatly In different places and In different regions of the sky.It fs much less on the tops of mountains in the tropical regions than in the plains.But everywhere It increases in the neighborhood of the sun so rapidly that it Is never possible to see the objects which ordinarily surround our central luminary.During a total eclipse of the sun the moon comes to our ald by shutting off the light of the sun, to a greater or ess extent, around the region on which its shadow falls, the sixe and distance of the moon being such that I{ permits us to see nlmost to the very limb of the sun itself.In the coming eclipse the diameter of the shadow across the gulf and Atlantic states ls betwcen 40 and 50 miles, Within this region no direct sunlight can penetrate so long as the shadow is passiug.The benvens would therefore be as dark as night were It not for light reflected into the shadow from the atmosphere outside of It, where the sun still shines.In the present ease there will probably be much more light than during eclipses of very long duration.Still the amount Is almost infinitesimal in comparison with that ordinarily shed by the direct rays of the sun, To understand the problems which our observers expect to attack something must be aald about the surround- Ings of the sun.To all ordinary observation the Intter ts simply a shining globe, with no visible appendage.Nel- ther by photography nor by the wost enreful serutiny with powerful telescopes Las the astronomer ever been able to pereelve any object outside the surface of this shining sphere.But by observations during total celipses dt has been shown (oO have several appendages.Lowest down, Immediately resting on the surface of the sun, is a sort of solar atmosphere, red In color, of the upper part of which hydrogen Is one of the principal constituents.This is known as the chromosphere.Lower down, resting mediately on the solar surface, the chromosphere vomprises a layer of gases composed of the vapors of most of the common substances known to exist on the earth and tn the sun, So Intense 8 the hent that these substances are not only melted, but\u201d netuntiy evaporated, ns water would he evaporated over a hot tire, This purt of the chromosphere is called the reversing layer.The hydrogen of the chromosphere 18 piled up Is huge, frregudar maszes of every shape, These are seen during the total phase 88 rosy prominences, apparently sent- tered round the darle body of the moon here amd there, Samethnes they have the appearance of elowdlike masses, sometimes of Inmense lames shot up to a helght of many thousnml miles fram the solar surface.Surrounding the entlee sun, chromosphere and pro- tuberanices Is the soft effulgenee known as the solar corons.\u2018These three ob- Jects, chiromosphere, protuberances and corann, are the more or less mysterfous appendages of the sun the nature and constitution of which give rise to some of the mast difficult and interesting proldems of solar plhysles, \u2018Fhe discovery of the revetsing layer wank Lhe wore of Professor Young dur- tng the eclipse of 1870 ln Spain.itis therefore sometimes called Young's stratum, 1d 18 seen only when the total phase Is beginning or ending.To understand (ts signifiennee we recall that the solar spectrum lis always crossed hy n number ol dark lines produced hy the absorption of certain rays Ly the solar atmosphere.Young, observing this spectrom as the monn was ahout to completely hide the sun, noticed that as the Inst ray of {rue sunlight disappeared the spectral lines were suddenly changed from dark to bright, For a moment hmudreds of these Lefght Unes fAashed out, then disappeared as suddenly ns they had appeared.The sane gases which, by absorblig the sunlight which passed through then, caused dark lines to appear fn the speclrum were hot enough to give bright lines when the surdissht was ent off.The introduction of photographic methods into astronoiuy has initiated a revolution in the method of observing total celipses wide will see Its completion on the coming occasion.Up to a rceent period the observations wore necessarily purely visual.Observers drew pletures of the corona as they saw It og fancied it.The proml- nences were delineated ag they could be seen during the brief period nvaila- ble for the purpose, and the lines of the spectrum were observed by the eye The application of photography to the phenomena of a total cclipse 8 alinost as old as the art itself.But with the chermicals of 30 years ago the results were of little importance.Now, however, the estronomer Is not going to trust to his eye, except where it cannot well be helped.Everything that Hght ean depict on a sehsitive plate will be ludelibly recorded In such à way ns to he free from ali the fusions of ordinary vision and will be studied at lei sure hy the best eyes with the most refined apparatus.An Idea of the great advance thus made will be gnined from the fact that in a few geconds as much of the corona can be photographed as it is possible for the eye to see by looking directly al It.This will be the case even with Young's reversing Inyer.It Ig expected that during the moment of its visibility lines will be photographed which the eye cannot possibly recognize In so brief an Interval.Those astronomers will get the best chance at this inter- trting object who forego the pleasure of Leing near the central line, where the duration 18 longest.Much has been written about the effect of a total eclipse upon anbnals and even plants, A curious experiment was made upon à dog in France on the occasion of the eclipse of 1842.The owner allowed him no food after the preceding evening, Next day, at the moment when the eclipse wag about to become total, he threw him a luinp of bread.The dog had just commenced to eat it when the last rays of the sun disappeared.He then dropped it and did not take It up agaln until after the total phase was over, when he began to eat it with avidity.That the bats came out during the same eclipse does not surprise us.During the eclipse of 1831 one of the observers noticed a crow flying near bim.It seemed quite bewildered.croaking and flying backward and forward near the ground fn an uncertaln manner.\u2014New York Post. 1% {was contered in the heart of the South African continent, and being without {either railway or telegraphic commu- I'nication, 1,400 miles by road from Cape | Town was
