those beauteful little cattle that ori-
ginated on the Island of Jersey..
and ere noted round the world as
producers of milk of enusuat rich

full well that this. farmer doesn't
expect us to give his farm and betel
a write up, but that is one of the
things a writer from the farm, who
at times is hard pressed for some-
thing to write, about, is' very likely
to do.
There are several ,things about
that farm we could write about—btu
we have been on that tarts an Sev-
eral oc:cestions, and one thio; that
has alnaye impressed us vete the
absolute cleanliness of the pia•e,
particularly the stables. We refer
to this, because of the interest that
was aroused in pastetu•izatioe et
milk during the past winter. If all
premises' were kept in order as ibay
are on tbds rarer, and If all bfee„1e1r1
were as pertieula•r about the health
of their cattle as is der, Skinner,
then those who favor patsteuritatinn
