Guernsey Cattle.

The Guernsey breed of cattle is attract- ing increased attention in America. Mr. L. W. Ledyard, of Cozenovia, New York, has just issued an admirable catalogue which supplies much valuable information regarding the breed. Among the seven- days’ butter tests of cows belonging to this herd are following :—Kathleen, 19 Ibs. 1 oz.; Lady Mary, 18 lbs. 6 lbs.; Polly of Fernwood, 19 lbs. 14d oz., the butter being worked dry and weighed unsalted in each instance.

” i his account of breed Mr. Ledyard save:—The Guernsey man was and is a most conservative breeder, and, perchance, it is well that something like solidity formed a strong anchor in his character. — His faith in his cow with a golden skin, with gilding in her ears, on and around ber horns and the end of her tail, was his main belief; she was a farmer’s cow, with gentle face and quict temper, full of affection and abundant in pretty ways of showing it; her milk fiowed freely, and her butter had the sunshine that gilds the spring flowers, and it held it through the long dark winter of the latitude of Labrador. His cow was sought to eurich the milk of English dair- ies, where it was well known that the colour that comes with the milk has flavour accompanying if, which is not the cace with colour that results from stains ; and he saw no reason, and does not to-day, to breed for qualities other than the practical ones his favourite cow has inherited from unknown generations of pure ancestry. Few farmers, even the wealthiest, own a dozen acres of fair Guernsey, and three or four cows form an average herd. They are family pets. Little children lead them along the narrow lanes to water, lanes

islands of New Zealand. Two years he visited Canada and

Manitoba and the Northwest. The Institute of which Mr. O'Halloran is Secretary, oumb:crs 2,250 members, and has at its offices, 15 Strand London, files of over a hundred Colovial newspapers.

|_ ‘The general character of the cattle on the |Island is much the same, but their are ‘individuals that show a tendency to dark colors; aud it is quite probable that by | selecting from these a race could in time be formed that would change in the same gra- } dations that have been noticed in the | Jersey. /not at all likely to be tried; for, as far as ‘any matters of taste are having \influence, the tendency is to orange-red, 'orange-fawn and lemon-fawn, with white ‘markings. These colors are warm, bright ‘and attractive, and show charmingly in the creen landscape with dark hedgerows. The |}cows having abundant white markings are also the best fitted to show the golden tints that glow under the hair, and it may be a fancy of the writer, who imagines that cows with more or less white are the most free milkers and best butter cows.
