HIGH PRICES FOB JERSEY COWB
The Jersey Cow as a. revenue pro- ducer must be [attractive to the Canu- dian farmer if one may Judge by the prices at the Coliseum, Toronto, yes- terday. This was the ninth public sale of B. I-I. Bull and Sons' Brampton
herd. an? in less than four hours the entir herd was sold at record- breaking 'prices although the cattle (while thrifty in appearance and with every evidence of high breeding) were hardly in show funn. `
The bidding was spirited from the
first, prices ranging from$250 to $600, but it took Brampton Bay Xenia, a handsome seven-year-old cow, im- ` ported from the Isle of Jersey by Mr. lull to get the big crowd going. Starr- ing at $2000. and jumping $400, and $500, at a' time. Xenia was knocked down to Dr. 0. W. Means, of Brook- field, Mass., for 88,000. ~
Another handsome five-year-old,
also imported, “Successor's Oxfordiaf' was sold to E. W. Nesbitt, of Wood-
stock, for $2,000. Oxfordtl has a great record in the prize ring and as is milk producer.
Biddirlg_ warmed up and' jumped
four and five hundred dollars at a time, when “Imperial Double Chance," was put up. “Chance” is a fine young imported bull with trophies inniuner- able in the Canadian and Anierlcan Prize ring. To the general satisfaction he was bought in by Willian Duffy ot Toronto, though he cost his new own. el $5,500. Mr. E. W. Nesbitt also iwilght "Philidera's Pet," a handsoule heifer with every mark of a high milking strain, for $2000. Prices rang- ed downward from this as low as $500 and under, and in all about 70 head were sold at an average of around $600 per head.
“Thc sale was eminently satisfac- i0!‘Y»" said D. C. Bull, "and leaves nothing to be desired so far as prices are concerned, proving conclusively that the Jersey is still a great fav- orite with the breeders and farmers of Canada."

in the National Museum, U S A. in a lecture before The Royal Cana dlan Institute at Toronto, made some interesting statements on the subject of Meteors
According to this eminent authority
there revolve around the planets and their satellites, untold millions of smal- ler bodies which emit neither emit nor reflect light. and travel at a high rate of speed. Should one of these chance to strike the earth's atmos phero it experiences the usual effect of resistance: the pressure generates such heat that it bursts into flame, and is seen as a "shooting star
Fortunately these shooting stars are
burnt up on the way, so that few 0! them reach the earth. We are subject- ed to a perpetual bombardment; 200,- 000,000 of these metors ar reported every year, but very very few ever reach the earth, only 900 having been found in all time. As we may suspect, Dr, Merrill states that no signs of lite have ever been found on these met- eors: and it is interesting to find that in the main their elements are the same as those of the earth, though they show a. lack of oxygen
The area of the earth’s surface oc-
cupied by man being comparatively small, the chance of damage by met eorltes is extremely minute, but at Mhow, India, in 1827 a man was kill- ed by a meteoric stone, fragments of which are in the collections of various

Dogs or Sheep 7
In some parts of Canada there is
much heart burning as to the present condition of the law which regard L0 the keeping of dogs, and this evident ly ext/°nds beyond the border A bill how before the New York State ME- islature commences
‘If a. dog shall attack a person who
is peaceably conducting himself ln any place where he may lawfully b°. or shall attack chase, or worry ani’ domestic animal while in any place where lt may lawfully be, any person may kill such dog while so attacking, chasing or worrying or while being pursued thereafter, and no liability in damages or otherwise shall be incur red on acount of such killing’ -and so forth and so on
There is developing a great amount
of opposition to this measure,both in the Legislature and the press. The New York Herald Tribune, a news- paper with a well-balanced outlook goes as far as to call the Bill one for “legalized dog muffler," and proceeds to say that thousands of peaceable dogs occasionally fall to the tempta- tion to snap at chickens or chase cows, "yet under this measure, just to be clogs would costthem their lives." A Missouri Senator ,def-ends "the one ab- solute, unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacher- ous, his dog!" Which is true; only there are dogs
-and dogs; and my personal feeling derived from a variety of exciting ex- periences, is that' the dog who chases sheep or takes a ' snack from a neighbors leg, should be dealt with according to the N. Y. S. Legislatures Act, no matter how loyal he may be to his owner.

WHATS THE MATTER WITH THE WEATHER”
While we are having a most remarr-
able winter in Canada, it is pursuing a very fleakish course in other places Despatches from 'Turkey say that the grvatcst storm for a century is ragini., there In Constantinople. the snoiv drifts are 15 f=et deep Tllc tempera- ture is-6 degrees, and the velocity 01 the wind sixty miles per hour. Such a combination is sure to result in great loss of life, more particularly because people in that country have usually no experience of such extrem- es. The Black Sea, under these con- ditions, lies under a terrific hurricane and grave fears are entertained for shipping, both Russian and British Leon Trotsky, the former colleague of Lenine, is believed to have perish-ad as he is said tc be en route for Tur- key by way of the Black Sea.
The Black Sea, anciently the Eux-
lne, lies in pretty much the same latitude as ourselves, but from a var- iety of causes enjoys a milder climate as a rule. Occasionally it has an extraordinary winter but-, nothing to compare with one in the eighth century when old records state, "The Euxine was frozen over” for the first and only time.
There is no doubt that weather is
due to gravitational action-to get down to the bed-rock of' the matter~- byt why should it be distributed in spots, so to speak?
And while I am about lt, I may call
attention to the fact that there will be a conjunction of the planets Jupiter and Mercury on April 28th., of this year; and it will be interesting to observe if this is accompanied by any terrestrial disturbance.
