Mr. , of the Unitarian Church in a neighboring State, preach- ed a• sermon a few Sundays since on the importance of saying "No," and in the course of it dwelt impressively on the moral courage required to use that monosyllable at the right time. After the sermon a collection was taken for a very deserving charity. When the congregation was dismissed, a certain newspaper man waylaid...the pastor in the vestibule„ and seWse g him by the - hand thanked him effusively for the ser- mon—one of the most effective he had heard. The pastor modestly replied : " I am glad you think so, but cannot see why you should.

The tethers are made of small chain; a spike about one foot long is attached at one end and driven into the ground; the other end is tied to the cow's halter, the latter be- ing made fast at the base of her horns. The length of these tethers is about four yards. During the slay cat- tle are frequently moved, generally every three hours. Drink is 'given them in the morning on leaving the, stable, and at noon ; in the summer they receive it also in the evening. ,'About May they are allowed to remain out at night, and continue so until the end. of Octo- ber, when the system of housing re- commences. During the summer cows are frequently milked -three times a day, and, when the weather becomes very warm they are brought into the ,sta,ble for a few hours, else they would I be tormented by flies. rA cow is in her prime at six years of age, and contin- ues good till ten years old. A good cow, on the average, gives feurteen. quarts of per ay, or eight or nine pounds of butter per week. Instances are com- mon of cows giving twelve or even fif- teen pounds .of butter per *eek, but this is above the •average figure."
