| \ PAPER READ BY THE REV, A. €, BEFORE THE DAIRY CONVENTION, HELD Al CHARLOTTETOWN, JULY 30, 1884.

| I think it will scarcely be questioned that

the position | occupy to-day in addressing

,this Convention, is a legitimate one, and

/one in which 1 may be of some service in

promoting the Dairy interests of my native

Province. And the matter being so inti- ‘mately bound up with generally, I feel that any influence | possess should be directed towards its development. I might refer, but it is un- ‘necessary, to the example “set me in this respect, by Canon Bagot of the Irish Church, some years ago, whose system of a perambulating Dairy revolutionised the Dairy interests in that country, the bene ficial effects of which are felt to the pre sent day. Moreover, I cannot reconcile my own views with those generally entertained, | am sorry to say, not only by persons 1 dizectly engaged in the noble profession of Agriculture, but also among those who are 80 engaged, that it is undignified, if not degrading. Those who are capable of | wielding any influence upon public opinion should endeavour to eradicate such false notions, as concrete nonsense, with all the ;energy that can be enlisted in that direc- tion.

tion is followed in life, having for its aim }

| the welfare and prosperity of Society, such |

conduct and such efforts, however humble ,and common place they may seem, are ven- erable and ennobling. No man, therefore, who has arrived at true greatness, but has his race, and that what God has given him, 'He has given for mankind, Especially is | this true with reference to husbandry. | This was the calling first in Paradise, and susequently in paradise lost, with the curse added of thorns end thistles, but yet glow- |ing with the promise of remedial agency, {that the Creator stamped with his appro- | bation.

An honest farmer Or artizan, is in his

serving of respect, inasmuch as he is a pro- ducer of the necessaries, not to say luxuries | of life, than the physician, the lawyer, and ‘the clergyman. Only a pernicious habit land pride can separate the man from his vocation. Each has, it has been well said, a bundle of wants that must be satisfied by | his own labour or by the bounty of others. | And what is still more to the point, each ;may be the foot-ball of fortune, and pass through all the declensions of adversity. Amid all the vicissitudes, however, the bread winner who receives it directly from i the soil, supplies his own and the wants of others independently of any aid save that bestowed by the Giver of all blessings. | We are, we have been, we will continue to be public benefactors, whenever and wher-

! BEER & GOFF'S FOR PRIME TEA, way, and in sume respects is even more de-

ever we bring men to realize how distress is |

to be averted and how much comfort and

| happiness is to be enjoyed through those | who stick to the plough, and who feed the flocks.

| Gentlemen, we are face to face with the

solution of a problem the influence or

perhaps the existence of which, did not}

require attention from our forefathers. Our virgin soils are being rapidly exhausted, | because of our system of tillage, and | especially of the preponderance of growth ‘of cereals, the elements which are used as | plant-food not being replaced by artificial |or other manures. To restore this loss to |the soil, or to go into bankruptcy, is for ‘some of us, the question of the hour. I am ‘convinced that the important matter of dairying lies at the root of improved and | systematic Agriculture, which invests the | question under consideration, with momen- tuous significance.

We ought, then, to draw attention to the training required in the profession of high | Class dairying, which we believe is calcul- ated to act and react beneficially upon our

| 1t is the plain duty of parents to train their boys in this science, and that it is a science is, at length, pretty generally acknowl- edged. In the keen competition of the present day, where dynamite, dime novels and oleomargarine -are playing such con- spicuous parts, we require an increased moral purity, a higher regard for the

bination against the adulteration of food. The literary professions require special training, and how is it that.we fail to re cognize the same necessity in the profession of agriculture! Take Th average trained man _ which is_ the exception in this country, and he will be found to have enough and to keep himself and family in comfort. His lot, indeed, isa happy one compared with the untrained man. [It is time, I empha tically affirm, for parents to understand that the youth who is not being drilled for a definite career is treading the road lead- ing to misfortune. There are, of course, extremes to be avoided; the one illostrated by the common practice of the old world, where the professional man devotes the best seven or eight years of his manhood to the acquisition of a special calling in the drudgery of the sanctum or the office, and who scarcely knows, when set free, that a spade is a spade, etc. On the other hand, we find the still more pernicious practice of America, where a man must bea jack of all trades and, as might be expected, master of none. In our age and country, we ought to be able to adopt the means in which one’s training may be suchto enable its possessor to bring the whole nature into proper accord with his surroundings and environments; where the agency employed is a combination of intel- lectual and morai force. We should, in fact, be prepared to learn the conditions upon which success in life depends and loyally accept these conditions. I con clude, therefore, that although we may not find professional men laying aside the scalpel, blackstone, or surplice and stole to lend a hand in driving the mowing machine

subject,

rHE COW There is a charm my mind in the whole matter of stock breeding, and espe cl illy so if we nave fin anim als to start with. The study of how to improve the good points of a cow and make them more

prominent, has afforded pleasure and profit to some of the best men: as the yenera tions have passed. What has made, at this day, the Durham stock to he such unrivalled beef producers, and placed the Jersey in the fore-front of ex-

cellence asa butter c¢ yw, and the Ayrshire with a developed capacity for a milk flow wholly her own. The answer is not far to seek. It has been continuous, persistent attention in the of those characteristics for which the breeds named are so remarkable, from age to age. | would remind you, therefore, that we are much indebted to Englishmen, Jerseymen, and Scotsmen, for providing to our hand, the several breeds for accomplishing these desirable purposes. In them we possess, in the language of Tyndale, all the potencies and potentialities of a cow approaching per fection, for producing beef, butter and milk. Vhat is required in breeding is that we 1ave a clear and distinct idea of the obj ct in view. And if we have not that idea, we, jin a great measure, miss the end towards

development

iwhich all our skill must be directed. The tre aring of ood animals for dairying is one |that requires a most thorough understand- ‘ing of the task, and is, therefore, one of the |most important department of agriculture, | Bat, although requiring skill and needing |perseverance, it is attainable. It is ad- jmitied, both in Europe and America, that, jat present, only every third cow is a | profitable dairy one. Now, it must be re- imembered that one cow takes up as much jroom, and requires the same. atien- ition and feed as another. There is a |very great difference, however, between two ‘cows in the milk yield. The excess of }quantity and quality of the milk yield in | the superior cow over the inferior consti- | tutes the difference of profit and loss. It lis clearly, of the utmost consequence to {keep the best cow. An extra quart of milk jover the average twice daily, is six hun- 'dred in ten months, and every good cow ,can keep up this flow for such a period, or ishe is better in the hands of a butcher. | But 600 quarts of milk is worth about $25, ‘which multiplied by eight seasons, not a llong life for a cow coming in at two and a half years ¢ ld, place s; asum of from $175 ito $200 to the credit of s Apply the same proportionate increase to a whole | he rd, and finaily to the entire herds of the |province, and the aggregate is
